Lt. '''William Adama''', call-sign "Husker" (because of his rough voice) is the 21-year protagonist of the [[2003 Video Game|"Battlestar Galactica" video game]] from late 2003. The player assumes the role of "Husker" in the course of the game.

Adama's father had served in the Colonial military with [[Bryn Magus]], and had saved his life more than once; he died during a skirmish with [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylons]] near Sagitara, when Adama was eight. Adama's mother died during childbirth. Raised on [[The Twelve Colonies of Man#Caprica|Caprica]], Magus ensured that the orphaned boy was well cared for, partly to honor the debt he felt to the young Adama's father. Adama later joined the Colonial Academy at the age of 15. After graduating from officer training at the start of the [[Cylon War]] with honors, Commander Magus specifically requested him for assignment to his ship, the battlestar ''[[Galactica (2003 Video Game)|Galactica]]''. Magus became a father-figure to him, and Adama fell in love with his daughter, [[Iphigenia]] Magus.

Along with Iphigenia, his wing men were Magus' son [[Paulus Magus]], and Lieutenant [[Garris Cain]]. Adama's Viper designation was Blue Four.

Cylon scrolls refer led them to believe that Adama will lead the Cylons to discover the [[Thirteenth Tribe (TOS)|Thirteenth Tribe]]; as such, he draws much interest from the [[Imperious Leader]], Lord [[Erebus]].

==Notes==
*This character is part of a separate continuity that mixes elements from the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Re-imagined Series]] and [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]] as well as unique material. It is not a [[canon]]ical item in either series.
*In the [[Battlestar Galactica (TOS)|Original Series]], [[Adama (TOS)|Commander Adama]] had married [[Ila]]. In the [[Battlestar Galactica (RDM)|Re-imagined Series]], the character of [[William Adama]] married [[Carolanne Adama]].  This William Adama character has more in common with its [[Adama (TOS)|Original Series counterpart]] than its [[William Adama|Re-imagined Series character]] of the same name and call-sign, but is essentially a unique character.
