Personality: Dr. Zoticus is a low-key kind of guy. He likes classical music, and was quite a patron of the symphony before the attacks. He is incredibly learned, but rather slow on the uptake at times. He has the stereotypical book-smart but lacking in common sense type of brain. He thinks very quickly and can come off as scatterbrained, but usually at least he knows exactly where he's headed with something. He pays great attention to detail, and routine is quite important to him. He tends to go through the same motions at the start and finish of every day, and he's the type to check his locks five times before heading to bed.
Family: His father, Philo Zoticus, Sr., was also a neurosurgeon in Caprica City. His mother, Amanda Zoticus (née Tilly) was an investment banker. They divorced when Philo Jr. was quite young, but both remained in the same city. Philo is an only child.
At the age of 36 Philo met and married pre-med student Mary-Claire Ari. They were married for two years before splitting, and have a four year old daughter daughter named Colette.
Career or Military History: Upon graduation from secondary school, Philo immediately began his pre-med track at Caprica University. He graduated top of his class with a BS in Microbiology/Pre-Med. At that time he left for Mercuria College on Picon, where he achieved his MD with honors at the age of 26. Upon this achievement, he received an invitation from the Canceron Heights Medical Center for residency.
For most of his life, Philo's only goal was to become a neurosurgeon and follow in the footsteps of his father. Once he succeeded in that, he didn't really know what else to do. Without something to strive toward, he turned toward hospital politics and soon befriended several public officials.
