I think this page is a good idea but can't we assume some people ARE exempt from being cylons? Helo and Cally probably aren't cylons because we've been told cylons can't breed with other cylons (granted that might not hold between two final fivers or one final fiver and one significant seven). Lee has a childhood that not only he remembers but also remembered by his father (granted Lee could always turn out to be half-cylon). --[[User:Meteor|Meteor]] 15 April 2007 | I think this page is a good idea but can't we assume some people ARE exempt from being cylons?

Reboot Thoughts
A good idea; since much of what we know of the Seven really may not apply. It's like the start all over again (complete with annoying delay between miniseries cliffhanger and first season). --Spencerian 08:27, 9 April 2007 (CDT)

- What we have is RDM telling us that Nicholas and Hera are cylon-human hybrids, which does indeed tell us that Helo and Cally are humans. The "Cylons can't breed with other Cylons" however can't be confirmed for the F5 as you note. We don't know the F5 did not have childhoods (Tyrol certainly feels he did, he even claims his childhood is well documented when Tigh accuses him of being a Cylon). In addition, since RDM only picked the 4 Cylons and wrote their backstories during season 3, we even have to discount some of his podcast and interview quotes from S1 and S2 about this thoughts on Cylon nature then -- he has now done much more development on it and I am sure has changed his mind of a few minor things and may even retcon some. Exclusion should be soley based on things learned about the F5 in season 3.--Bradtem 13:25, 15 April 2007 (CDT)
