The Graystones, according to their basic description in the official statement on the Re-imagined Series spin-off drama, Caprica, are a family that run a large corporation that develop the Cylons, robots that would be used for the hard labor and hazardous work deemed unworthy of the people of the Twelve Colonies of Kobol, at the eve of an unexpected revolt. The series will be set some 50 years prior to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies.

Details about the Caprica pilot began leaking out in April 2008[1], including more detailed information about the Graystone:

The Graystones include father Daniel, a computer genius; mother Amanda, a brilliant surgeon and unfaithful wife; and their daughter, Zoe, who is martyred to her boyfriend's religious fanaticism—but not before she installs the rudimentary elements of her personality and DNA into a machine, creating a digital twin of herself, Zoe-A. After the human Zoe's death, Daniel uses these raw materials, some stolen technology and his own grief to cobble together "a robotic version of his dead daughter." This robot version, known as Zoe-R, is a Cylonic Eve, the first of her kind.
