The Cylons were created by man. They were created to make life easier on the Twelve Colonies. And then the day came when The Cylons decided to kill their masters…
In a far-flung star system, a 40-year armistice between the Twelve Colonies of Man and the rebelling Cylon robots is broken when the Cylons launch a surprise nuclear attack, virtually wiping out human existence. All that remains is a population of 50,000 humans spread among a ragtag fleet of spacecraft, led by the aging battlestar Galactica. Amidst the uncertainty of an apocalyptic aftermath, the precious few survivors cling to their hope of finding a new home: the legendary 13th Colony called Earth.
After the initial Cylon attack, Roslin was thrown into the role of President of the Twelve Colonies while simultaneously struggling with cancer and discovering her place as spiritual leader.
