Editing Theta

[[Image:Theta.jpg|thumb|Three Theta-class workers.]]

'''Theta''' is short-hand for '''Theta-class lifeforms''', essentially human clones ([[The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part I]]) created by noted [[Colonial]] scientist Dr. [[Ravashol]], who was kidnapped by the [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylons]] and forced to work for them.

Ravashol is allowed to create the clones to aid in his work and are used as slave labor. The Cylons mandate that Thetas were to be sterile to maintain purity of the life-form, but this sterility would later correct itself, forcing the Thetas to hide their children.

Each clone is given a specific task as [[Planner]] or [[Ser 5-9|Worker]]; Planners do the mental labor, while Workers do the physical labor. In addition, a female Theta series (of which [[Tenna]] is a part) exists, though their function is unspecified.

Cylons treated these clones with apparently greater distaste than the human Colonials, considering them to be sub-human and inflicted various mistreatments to Thetas. It is due to this, and the fact that they were able to procreate, that incites the Thetas to rise up in opposition to the Cylons. Despite initial reservations, they aid Captain [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]]'s expedition in destroying the [[Ravashol pulsar]] and the Cylon garrison on the planet ([[The Gun on Ice Planet Zero, Part II]]).

The Cylons mandate that Thetas were to be sterile to maintain purity of the life-form, but this sterility would later correct itself, forcing the Thetas to hide their children in caverns of their [[Theta underground city|underground city]]. Thetas revere Ravashol, giving him the title of "Father-Creator."

-Each Theta is given a specific task, such as [[Planner]] or [[Ser 5-9|Worker]]: Planners do the mental labor, while Workers do the physical labor. A female Theta series (e.g. [[Tenna]]) exists, and while their function is unspecified, they appear to be tasked with general caretaking operations.
-Thetas typically wear similar clothing. Workers, such as [[Ser 5-9]] and [[Tenna]], namely off-white color coveralls under grey-color overalls. A color stripe runs down the coverall's shoulder and outer arms, and down the center front of the overalls. There are three distinct types of colors that the majority of men and women wear: orange, red, and green.
-Planners are distinct in that they wear a hooded shirt instead of the jacket, and feature blue color stripes. A primary [[Planner]], leader of the Clone Council that administrates the Theta's society, features two rows of the blue color stripes on his hooded coverall (but a single stripe on his overall).
-== Notes ==
-To help illustrate that the society was clone-like, many of the background performers were either given beards and hair pieces (in the case of the Sers) to emulate [[Denny Miller]]'s appearance or given masks to emulate [[Britt Ekland]]. This is discernible given the high-definition remasters of the Original Series episodes, and would not have been easy to discern with the restricted resolution and technology available in the 1970s CE.
