{{disambig}}


A native of Gemenon in his mid-40s to early 50s, Paul Tigh is estranged from his wife and has been somewhat disillusioned with his career, seeking refuge in alcoholism - a move which has lead many in the crew to view him with contempt.
[[Category:A to Z]]
 
Following the Cylon attack, Tigh recovered some of his old verve and attempted to give up alcohol. However, this, combined with the initial stress of flight from the Cylons caused him to over-compensate as a martinet, frequently driving the personnel overly-hard, and berating where encouragement might have proved the better option.
 
With his drink problem now relatively under control, Tigh is settling back into his role as the Galactica's Exec, and has proven himself both honest and level-headed - if still hard on himself and others - in a number of circumstances, and provided the kind of support Adama has needed.
 
Outside of Adama, Tigh has few he can regard as confidants aboard ship; and since the initial Cylon attack, he has very much withdrawn from interacting with the crew during off-duty hours, making him perhaps more isolated than even Adama - who is at least held in awe and respect by the crew.
