Cylon History: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 19:16, 30 December 2005

Template:Cylons Series Man created the cylons. The cylons rebelled against their masters in the Cylon War.

While absent from human observation during the armistice between the Cylon War and the Fall of the Twelve Colonies, Cylons eventually evolved or created new models of Cylons known as Humano-Cylons. The evolution is most likely a result of learning capabilities incorporated into the early Cylons. With the exception of a glowing red spine, it is quite difficult to determine the difference between a Humano-Cylon and a "pure" human (Miniseries). (TPTB have expressed that the glowing red spine was, in retrospect, a continuity error that was visually appealing at the time.) Another significant difference is the presence of Silica Pathways which are vulnerable to a specific type of radiation found at Ragnar Anchorage (Miniseries). Dr. Gaius Baltar was able to successfully build a Cylon detector based on this principle with the help of Number Six; however, he has determined it is simpler for everyone "if all the results are green." An interesting new step in the evolution came about with the conception of a Cylon-human hybrid, the child of Sharon Valerii and Lt. Karl Agathon.
