Adama's father had served in the Colonial military with [[Bryn Magus]], and had saved his life more than once; he died during a skirmish with [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylons]] near Sagitara, when Adama was eight. Adama's mother died during childbirth. Raised on [[The Twelve Colonies of Man#Caprica|Caprica]], Magus ensured that the orphaned boy was well cared for, partly to honor the debt he felt to the young Adama's father. Adama later joined the Colonial Academy at the age of 15. After graduating from officer training at the start of the [[Cylon War]] with honors, Commander Magus specifically requested him for assignment to his ship, the battlestar ''[[Galactica (2003 Video Game)|Galactica]]''. Magus became a father-figure to him, and Adama fell in love with his daughter, [[Iphigenia]] Magus.
