This article is about the characterization of William Adama from the 2003 video game. For information on the commander of battlestar Galactica in the Re-imagined Series, see William Adama.


Lt. William Adama, call-sign "Husker" (because of his rough voice) is the 21-year protagonist of the "Battlestar Galactica" video game from late 2003. The player assumes the role of "Husker" in the course of the game.

Adama's father had served in the Colonial military with Magus, and had saved his life more than once. When his parents died at a young age, Adama was raised on Caprica before joining the Academy at the age of 15. After graduating at the start of the Cylon War, he became a pilot on Magus' ship, the battlestar Galactica. Magus became a father-figure to him, and Adama fell in love with his daughter, Iphigenia.

Along with Iphi, his wingmen were Magus' son Paulus, and Lt. Garris Cain.

Cylon scrolls refer led them to believe that Adama will lead the Cylons to discover the Thirteenth Tribe; as such, he drew much interest from the Imperious Leader, Lord Erebus.

Note

The "Battlestar Galactica" video game has its own continuity as a result of its association with the failed Original Series continuation revival in 2001.

In the Original Series, Commander Adama had married Ila. In the Re-imagined Series, the character of William Adama married Caroline and, later, Anne. This William Adama character has more in common with its Original Series counterpart than its Re-imagined Series character of the same name and callsign, but is essentially a unique character.
