The First Hybrid was the prototype of the Hybrids, entities that represent the first step in the Cylon evolution from pure machines to organic beings.

There are references in the Cylon databases to this prototype as a failed experiment which may still exist. William Adama encountered what appears to be this hybrid near the end of the first Cylon War, who is able to place a projection into Adama's mind, and repeats the mantra that "all this has happened before..."

Much later, Kendra Shaw encounters this hybrid on a base ship crewed by a faction of Cylon Centurion Model 0005 units known as Guardians. Unlike the later version Hybrids, this one speaks coherently in the voice of an old man. He says to her, "What am I? A man? Or am I a machine? My children believe I am their god." and demonstrates prophetic knowledge about Shaw and Kara Thrace. In particular, he warns Shaw that Thrace is the herald of the apocalypse and must not be followed by the Colonials, though jamming by the Guardians prevents her from relaying this message to Pegasus. The first Hybrid seems to be far more lucid than the newer Hybrids.

Shaw detonates an explosive device aboard the Guardian basestar, killing herself and the first Hybrid (Razor).
