- For the Galactica 1980 character, see: Troy (1980).
Troy was a Colonial mining settlement in the vicinity of Aerelon that suffered a cataclysm, killing a majority of the people who were there at the time. It was not one of the Twelve Colonies themselves, but a minor settlement said to within their sphere of influence (Flesh and Bone).
The Cylon copy Number Eight known as Sharon "Boomer" Valerii believed that she and her parents, Abraham and Catherine Valerii, had lived on Troy ("Kobol's Last Gleaming, Part II", "Flesh and Bone"). In reality, as a Cylon construct, Valerii had no parents.
Notes
- In Greek mythology, in Homer's Iliad, Troy was a city and the site of the Trojan War.
- According to the fictional backstory, her mother was still alive when Boomer left for the Colonial Fleet academy and that the accident happened en route. In the Miniseries, she tells Boxey, that her parents died when she was little. Later, in "Downloaded", she says that she received a gift from her mother when she left for the academy. This jibes with the first point, but conflicts with what she tells Boxey, therefor becoming a continuity error.
