'''[[Sire]]ss Belloby''' is a hardened woman on the freighter ''{{TOS|Gemini|Gemini}}'' noted for getting anything she wants. Much to {{TOS|Adama}}'s dismay, he had encountered her when they were younger. When the {{TOS|Cylons}} hulled the [[Agro Ship 9]], thus destroying the crops, the {{TOS|the Fleet|the Fleet}}'s representatives ({{TOS|Adama}}, {{TOS|Boomer}}, {{TOS|Starbuck}}, and {{TOS|Apollo}}) needed an unmarked [[energizer]] to trade for agricultural seed. A search of the Fleet's inventory lead the [[Warrior]]s to Belloby, who is the only person to have an unmarked energizer; the unmarked energizer necessary, so that no one would know who they were.


Title: [[Siress]]
In exchange for the energizer, Belloby demands that Adama would court her. Indeed, Adama found the prospect nauseating, but with no other choice he accepts. After landing on [[Sectar (planet)|Sectar]] and getting to [[Serenity]], Serenity's locals steal her generator from Starbuck and Boomer; later resulting in Starbuck being conned into being Serenity's [[constable]] as he attempts to win enough money to buy the agro seed. Despite the presence of ''Galactica'''s Warriors, the Siress finds the energizer in a nearby agricultural storehouse.

Noted for getting anything she wants, Belloby is a hardened woman on the freighter <i>[[Gemini]]</i> who would make the [[Cylons (TOS)|Cylons]] want to turn back home.  She had, much to [[Adama (TOS)|Adama's]] dismay, previously met when they were younger. When the Cylons hulled the [[Agro Ship 9]], thus destroying the crops, the Fleet's representatives ([[Adama (TOS)|Adama]], [[Boomer (TOS)|Boomer]], [[Starbuck (TOS)|Starbuck]], and [[Apollo (TOS)|Apollo]]) needed an unmarked [[energizer]] to trade for agricultural seed.  
* ''According to ''[[Encyclopedia Galactica]]'', a non-canonical piece of merchandise published in 1979:''
: Belloby is a [[The Twelve Colonies of Man#Caprica|Caprican]] [[bureautician]] born into a "distinguished, but impoverished family". She was said to be "the likely bride" of a younger {{TOS|Adama}}, but he had married [[Ila]] instead.  


Needless to state, Belloby was the only known person to have an unmarked energizer; the unmarked energizer necessary, so that no one would know who they were.
: After this, she "pursued her business interests" that lead to her being "one of the Galaxy's (sic) leading dealers in recycled parts and equipment". Her prosperous business also backed Adama's political career.


Of course, she would comply… if Adama would court her. Indeed, Adama found the prospect nauseating, but with no other choice he had to accept. After landing on [[Sectar (planet)|Sectar]] and getting to [[Serenity]], Serenity's locals stole her generator from Starbuck and Boomer. After Starbuck had been conned into being Serenity's constable, the Siress found the energizer in a nearby agricultural storehouse.

We can only presume the "real animal" to be Nogow… however Adama found no problem with that, as his sentence of a living death hath been lifted.

Siress Belloby is a hardened woman on the freighter Gemini noted for getting anything she wants. Much to Adama's dismay, he had encountered her when they were younger. When the Cylons hulled the Agro Ship 9, thus destroying the crops, the the Fleet's representatives (Adama, Boomer, Starbuck, and Apollo) needed an unmarked energizer to trade for agricultural seed. A search of the Fleet's inventory lead the Warriors to Belloby, who is the only person to have an unmarked energizer; the unmarked energizer necessary, so that no one would know who they were.

In exchange for the energizer, Belloby demands that Adama would court her. Indeed, Adama found the prospect nauseating, but with no other choice he accepts.
