Tybalt (TOS-RH)

Tybalt is the leader of the Cult of the Serpent in .
Described as a slender man, he and his cultists are berthed aboard Ursus, and are given a wide berth by the other denizens of the ship within "the Pit".
Terence, an agro-worker on Agro-3 who may have bore witness to the murder of a then-unidentifiable Fleet denizen, traveled to Ursus only to be later killed and decapitated by Tybalt's cultists. Both Ensign Dalton and Lieutenant uncover this fact upon later meeting the leader, and are subsequently captured—alongside Captain —by Tybalt and his cultists following an attempt to question them on Terence's whereabouts.
Tybalt supports the ersatz Ambassador Puck's desire to lead the Fleet, viewing and those who support the Kobollian bloodline with murderous disdain. Receiving instructions from , Tybalt uses a TransVid skyeye in order to broadcast the torment of Troy, Dalton and Morgan, and to use the threat of their execution to spur the to vote Puck as commander of the Fleet.
To prove his point, Tybalt executes Morgan and threatens to execute Dalton within one should the Quorum fail. Tybalt does not afford the same stay of execution for Troy, preparing to kill Troy while slandering Apollo as "a greater traitor" than , but is quickly thwarted by Dalton who is able to free her bonds and shoot Tybalt's right hand.
Tybalt is later slain by Lieutenant Commander during his attempt to take Troy hostage while attempting to escape the Pit, but not before Troy is able to convince Tybalt's followers that the serpents that they worship may indeed be the themselves, resulting in a death of a Tauron woman who dares to question the mad Tybalt. These proceedings were broadcast throughout the entire Fleet, ultimately to the detriment of both the cult and the ersatz Puck .
== Notes ==
* This character is likely named after Tybalt from William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. In that work, Tybalt is known for his penchant for violence, vengeance, ambition and short-temper; Tybalt is slain by Romeo in a duel, following Mercutio's death by Tybalt's hand in an earlier duel.

Tylium (RDM)

Tylium (pronounced "TILL-lee-um") is a material used to fuel the propulsion systems of Colonial and Cylon spacecraft. At least three forms exist: tylium ore, refined tylium precursor, and refined tylium (the fuel itself).
Typically, tylium ore is mined from asteroids and is apparently not found on the Twelve Colonies natively. Large tylium ore deposits can keep fleets fueled for years . In its raw form, tylium is a relatively fine, powdery substance that is liquefied and refined by refinery ships. Care needs to be taken to not introduce impurities into the fuel, which can cause engine malfunctions .
According to Dr. Gaius Baltar, tylium has the following characteristics: 
* Tylium ore is rendered inert and unusable when exposed to nuclear radiation;
* Refined tylium precursor is more unstable and much easier to ignite than the finished fuel itself;
* Refined tylium has a tremendous enthalpy to the order of approximately half a million gigajoules per kilogram, or about 6 times greater than uranium-235 and 81% that of deuterium fusion;
* A tylium detonation results in no radioactive fallout 
Pure tylium can be easily detonated by a conventional warhead. Moreover, igniting fuel lines on spaceships usually quickly result in their loss . The fuel can also be used to construct improvised mines .
Category:A to Z Category:Technology Category:Resources
==Notes==
*Enthalpy describes the thermodynamic potential of a system (H), and its simplest definition is the sum of the system's internal energy (U), and the product of its pressure (p) and volume (V): H = U + pV.
*The official series web page on the Sci-Fi Channel web site incorrectly spells the substance as "tyllium" in the description of the mining ship on the ships page. As the Original Series DVD material, as well as labels seen in "Dirty Hands," show the spelling as "tylium," Battlestar Wiki contributors should use "tylium" as the correct spelling.
* The first usage of this term uses the "TIE-lee-um" pronunciation (q.v. ) as opposed to subsequent uses of "TILL-lee-um" (q.v. ).

Tylium (TOS)

Tylium (pronounced "TIE-lee-um") is an unstable mineral element used as fuel by both the Colonial and forces in the Seventh Millennium. The substance is often mined and it can explode when energy, such as discharges from laser pistols, impact its natural form.
Following the Battle of Cimtar, heads to the planet Carillon, believing it to have supplies of tylium based on a report from an old mining expedition. Much to the surprise and shock of many, Carillon is discovered to have tylium in mass quantities, so much so that when the Colonials ignite the tylium with energy weapons during a pitched battle with Cylon forces, the planet is destroyed in a cataclysm .
The Colonials make use of a separate fuel source, solium, for fueling various ships from s to freighters, like . This implies that tylium may well be the raw mineral from which other grades of fuel are derived, in the same way that and are derivatives.

Tylium is mentioned in the following separate continuity tie-ins, notably:

Unidentified energy being

An unidentified energy being attempts to warn (Prison of Souls, Part 1) and later possesses Commander to thwart the Somnians' plans (Prison of Souls, Part 2).
Initially communicating to Adama through visions, the being causes mental and physical distress to Adama, whose brain acts much like a receiver for the being's thoughts (Prison of Souls, Part 1). Upon Wilker's return from the derelict mothership, the being warns Adama that the Somnians have arrived in their universe (Prison of Souls, Part 2).
The being then possesses Adama and encases Captain Apollo and Lieutenant Sheba in an energy field, which protects them from the Somnians' tachites. 
After explaining what will happen upon the ship's contact with the newly formed and growing cosmic storm, the being, through Adama, explains that he is from a race of people who have imprisoned the Somnains, viewing them as a great threat. Both his people, in addition to the Somnians, reside on the same realm, with the Somnians wanting to destroy their wardens (Prison of Souls, Part 2).

:While harvesting algae for conversion into food, the beleaguered human/refugee fleet is discovered by a small group of Cylon raiders. A brief battle ends with the destruction of a Cylon heavy raider. A colonial issue escape pod found floating among the debris reveals two survivors inside: Singer Peter Attis . . . and his captor, a Cylon Number Eight.

Unwittingly, Peter has been spreading a highly contagious, nerve-deteriorating Cylon biological weapon—and he just performed for half the fleet. As Dr. Gaius Baltar begins work on a cure, word starts to spread that a fanatical sect believes that Peter is the religious leader who will save humanity and that this virus is their path to salvation. They are willing to do anything to keep Baltar's vaccine from being distributed.
