Brother Cavil is a priest who provides counsel for Chief Tyrol (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I) after Tyrol's maddened attack against Cally. Cavil identifies the source of Tyrol's anxiety as arising from the fear that he could be a Cylon sleeper agent.
A somewhat eccentric figure, Cavil is a surprisingly harsh critic of prayer for a priest, but claims to have been preaching "longer than you [Tyrol] have been sucking down oxygen" (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I).
Despite his unconventional view of prayer, he prayed with Laura Roslin for her re-election to the presidency to be successful.
Caprica-Cavil
Another version of Cavil approached the SAR team, telling them that the Cylons had left the Colonies. What he did not tell them -- until Tyrol blew his cover, per se -- was that he was a Cylon.
Due to this copy's discovery, Fleet-Cavil was arrested as well and thrown in Galactica's brig. Laura Roslin had ordered them to be spaced, after Caprica-Cavil informed her and Admiral Adama that the Cylons had made two mistakes: one the attack on the Colonies and the pursuit of the Fleet (Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II).
It is unknown whether or not the copies were executed.
Cavil is portrayed by Quantum Leap's Dean Stockwell.
