Hamish "Skulls" McCall is a character from the re-imagined Battlestar Galactica series.
[edit] Background
Skulls is a Colonial Raptor ECO from the Battlestar Galactica.
In the episode "Lay Down Your Burdens, Part I", Skulls was Margaret "Racetrack" Edmonson's copilot when she discovered New Caprica. The planet was accidentally encountered after a miscalculated jump during the mission led by Kara "Starbuck" Thrace to return to Caprica and rescue Samuel Anders and his team of resistance fighters. Skulls and Racetrack are later commended for their accidental discovery.
In the episode "Occupation", Skulls remains Racetrack's ECO a year later when they return to New Caprica in an attempt to contact the people on the ground.
In the episode "Dirty Hands", Skulls and Racetrack are aboard their Raptor when it experiences technical problems and collides with Colonial One.
In the episode "Crossroads, Part I". Racetrack and Skulls are ordered to remain a jump behind the fleet to monitor for pursuing Cylon ships. During the mission, Racetrack mocks Skulls for masturbating in is bunk. He refers to this as "self healing". Soon afterward, the Cylons arrive and it is confirmed they are following the fleet.
