Oracle: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 15:14, 6 March 2007

An oracle is a spiritual advisor with prophetic insight on the directions or motivations of the Lords of Kobol and the descendants of the Thirteen Tribes who inhabited the Twelve Colonies of Kobol.

There is no information on how oracles are created or selected for their work as of the end of season 2 of the Re-imagined Series.

Oracles use chamalla to aid in their prophetic insights. The oracles that have appeared in the Fleet appear to be either reclusive, or left to their own spaces because of their unusual gifts and their effect on others.

Pythia, a oracle that lived 3,600 years before the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, gave a dark prediction into the cyclical fate of humanity. Her book in the Sacred Scrolls is often cited by many followers.

According to Chief Galen Tyrol, his mother was an oracle, and his father was a priest (Resistance).

Dodona Selloi is an oracle that lives with the colonists of New Caprica (Exodus, Part I).

Yolanda Brenn is an oracle whom Kara Thrace seeks counsel about a series of dreams (Maelstrom).

Notes

See the article, Religion in the Twelve Colonies, for an extensive detailing of the Colonial faith of the Re-imagined Series.
