More actions
Also known as "Iphi" (to rhyme with "Iffy;" jokingly, as in the chance she had of completing a mission). Lt. Iphigenia was the 20-year-old daughter of Commander Magus and sister of Paulus. She and "Husker" Adama were lovers; with her blonde hair and freckles, Iphi was described as looking like Adama's ideal counterpart.
Iphi preferred carefully-planned strategic attacks to tactical strikes, and knew that it would be successful strategies, and not random acts of pilot bravery, that would win the Cylon War for the Colonials; as such, she was at odds with Garris Cain.
Notes
- In the original series, Adama had married Ila, and in the new series, Caroline
- Iphi was voiced by Kristanna Loken, who played the T-X in T-3, which also depicts robots engaging in a war to destroy humanity.
