Zoe-A is a holographic avatar created by Zoe Graystone within the virtual world as a digital recreation of her own consciousness as part of what she believed was a divinely-inspired plan to end the corruption rampant in the Twelve Colonies. Zoe-A is a physically (so to speak) separate entity from the original Zoe, but the two have practically identical thoughts and feelings.
Lacy Rand visits the virtual temple after the bombing to find that the virtual Zoe still exists despite her doppleganger's death. Due to the biofeedback subroutine, she also felt the real Zoe's death, though strangely she is also covered in blood. Daniel Graystone soon becomes aware of the existence of Zoe's avatar with Rand's help. At first, he rejects the avatar as a superficial copy of his daughter. However, she is able to convince him that she is a perfect recreation of her consciousness.
Graystone then tricks Zoe's avatar and downloads her onto a media storage device, planning to insert her into his company's U-87 Cyber Combat Unit to allow her to live in the real world. Though Zoe rejects this idea, Graystone ignores her protests and loads her into the robot. Though at first the experiment seems to have succeeded, with the robot taking several steps and calling Graystone "daddy", her data quickly becomes corrupted and seemingly irretrievable, and the robot collapses.
Soon afterwords, the robot containing Zoe's avatar is stored at Graystone's lab. Suddenly, the robot reactivates with Zoe's consciousness intact. She reaches a computer terminal and contacts Rand, asking for her help (Caprica pilot).
Zoe-R[edit]
Zoe finds herself bossed and pushed around in her robot body, as no one else at Graystone Industries is aware that she is present inside the machine and she chooses not to reveal herself to anyone but Lacy Rand. The only other person who treats her well is a young technician called Philomon. She is taken to the Graystone house for further study, because Daniel has noticed that the meta-cognitive processor is only working when inserted in one body (the body Zoe is inhabiting). In any other U-87 body, the processor fails to improve their cognitive abilities. She is initially unable to re-enter V-World because of her lack of an optic nerve (Rebirth).
Managing to hack a way of accessing V-World, Zoe makes plans with Rand to have herself shipped to Gemenon so that she can fulfill her original purpose. The two of them encounter Tamara-A and help her escape from the Graystone mainframe into the larger V-World, unwittingly preventing her from meeting Joseph Adama later that day (Reins of a Waterfall).
Having decided that Graystone Industries will make no more money off the holobands, Daniel takes the U-87 to a meeting of his board to convince them that the future lies in a new direction: the creation of an entire race of Cylons as intelligent but obedient laborers. Zoe-R is forced to tear her own arm off as part of the demonstration (There Is Another Sky). The arm is replaced (Know Thy Enemy).
Having grown fond of Philomon, Zoe seizes an opportunity to get closer to him without revealing herself after hearing him complain that he has had no luck finding a date online with a program called V-Match. Zoe creates a V-Match profile for herself under the name Rachel and makes a date with Philo in the V-World. Although Zoe-A disguises herself with virtual glasses, Philo notices her resemblance to the deceased Zoe Graystone. "Rachel" claims that she made her holographic avatar resemble Graystone to scare off the pervs, because Graystone has been one of the most hated figures in the twelve worlds since her mother announced that she may have bombed Maglev 27. Philo accepts this explanation and asserts that Graystone had principles (Know Thy Enemy).
