'''Ruth''' is the mother of [[Shannon Adama]] a.k.a. Shannon Adams, and mother-in-law to [[Joseph Adama]]. Her grandson, [[William Adama]], refers to her by the affectionate term "Tsattie".

In 58 BCH, she lives with Joseph Adama and his son, William, on [[Caprica (RDM)|Caprica]] after the terrorist bombing of [[Maglev 23]] claims both her daughter's and [[Tamara Adama|her granddaughter's]] lives. She has repeatedly attempted to convince Joseph to tell his son William about their true heritage as [[Tauron]]s, eventually succeeding in this ([[CAP]]:[[Caprica pilot|Pilot]]). 

After [[Amanda Graystone]] announced publically that her daughter [[Zoe Graystone]] had been involved in the bombing of Maglev 23, Ruth supported Joseph's plan to have Amanda assassinated by his brother [[Sam Adama]], believing in blood for blood ([[CAP]]: "[[Gravedancing]]").

Ruth noted that [[Evelyn]] was good for Joseph and implicitly gave her her blessing to pursue a relationship with her son-in-law by telling her that she and William would be staying with her sister for a while ([[CAP]]: "[[False Labor]]").
