Doctor Cyrus Xander is Daniel Graystone's assistant at Graystone Industries 58 years before the Fall of the Twelve Colonies.
Xander interfaces with the Ministry of Defense on the U-87 Project that begets the creation of the Cylon prototype. He worries that the contract for U-87 project would go off world to Tomas Vergis, after discovering that Vergis Corporation successfully created a meta-cognitive processor. He is present at the demonstration of the Cylon prototype to Joan Leyte, the new Caprican Minister of Defense (Caprica pilot) and later informs Daniel that the original prototype is the only machine to be self-aware and possess true, adaptive artificial intelligence (Rebirth).
Sometime afterward, Xander takes on the role of defender and personal supporter for Daniel. In the wake of Amanda Graystone's public statements about Zoe_Graystone their daughter's involvement in the Maglev bombing, he arranges for Priyah Magnus to consult Daniel on a public relations strategy (Gravedancing). At a meeting of Graystone Industries senior executives, Xander responds to demands for Daniel's removal by reminding them that "Daniel Graystone is the brand" and that removing him would be suicide for the company (There Is Another Sky). Xander is dismayed and angered to hear that Daniel used Ha'la'tha to steal the meta-cognitive processor, but eventually calmed and offered guidance on how he should talk with Tomas Vergis and deal with Vergis' accusations. As continuing failures with the U-87 force Daniel to sell the Caprica Buccaneers for cash and as the company ultimately loses control of the U-87, Xander remains at Daniel's side (End of Line).
