The angelic Gaius Baltar and Number Six look after both Battlestar Galactica Timelines independent of the Council of the Multiverse. The Council's overseer is Kara Thrace. Characters from this reality will be part of the Crisis War.

Information
After the original Battlestar Galactica Timeline had run its entertainment course after 1980, the franchise was considered past tense until 2003, when the mythos was reimagined with grittier and post-9/11 sensibilities. In 2003, the Battlestar Galactica 2-part miniseries ushered in Timeline 2's existence, followed by a 4 season series of the same name starting in 2004. After the series' conclusion, a prequel series called Caprica debuted, lasting 1 season and introducing background on life in the Colonies and especially planet Caprica as well as the creation of the Cylons and how they would eventually become humanity's enemy.
