Pythia is a human on Kobol who lived 4000 BCH.

During her life, Pythia came into contact with a blonde entity in a red dress who gives Pythia the word of God. As Pythia advocates the dissolution of the Quorum of Twelve and its hold over the people on Kobol, she becomes the subject of Michael Tigh's interest during her incarceration in the Maniae Asylum. Pythia confides in Tigh regarding her visions of the woman in red, which they keep to themselves. Additionally, she exhibits signs of clairvoyance (as was the case with the death of Kara Thrace between 2 to 3 ACH) and wrote down many of her prophecies during her time in the sanitarium. As tensions mount on Kobol, she is later publicly tried as a heretic and sentenced to immolation, thus fueling tensions between the atheistic Thirteenth Tribe and the polytheistic Twelve Tribes.

This sentence doesn't come to pass as Kobol soon falls into chaos, forcing the exodus of the Thirteenth. During Tigh's attempt to save Pythia, she is killed by Magnus Baltar (Battlestar Galactica: The Final Five 1) who later brings Pythia's word to the Twelve Tribes where she is posthumously published, after being given the Book of Pythia by Aurora (Battlestar Galactica: The Final Five 2).
