Biography
Number Three
Number Three was a deeply religious and covert Cylon infiltrator who operated inside the Colonial Fleet under the assumed human identity of D'Anna Biers. Working as a prominent investigative reporter for the Fleet News Service, she was granted unrestricted media access to film an unedited documentary aimed at capturing the high military tensions and psychological exhaustion of the crew aboard the battlestar Galactica. While conducting her interviews and roaming the corridors, she accidentally discovered that a pregnant, captive Cylon copy named Sharon Agathon was secretly being kept alive in the ship's medical bay. Although she surrendered her raw footage of the incident to military leadership under direct orders, she secretly kept a copy of the tape and successfully transmitted it to a Cylon basestar, exposing the survival of the child and revealing her true nature as a machine spy to her robotic brethren.
Overview
Personality and attributes
In appearance, Number Three was a tall human female of European descent who possessed a sharp, striking jawline, a confident posture, and highly expressive features. She had short, curly blonde hair styled in a practical cut and bright eyes that enhanced her professional, calculating persona. To perfectly mimic a human broadcast journalist, she wore stylish civilian work attire consisting of a dark, structured blazer over a low-cut top, paired with simple jewellery and a media identification badge clipped to her clothing. She carried a professional hand-held video camera and recording equipment throughout the ship, seamlessly masking her synthetic biology under the guise of an ordinary, everyday civilian professional.
Powers and abilities
Number Three possessed standard Cylon physiological traits that gave her distinct organic advantages over ordinary humans, combined with a highly analytical mind suited for espionage. Her synthetic biological design provided her with exceptional pain tolerance, immunity to common human illnesses, and the hidden ability to download her exact consciousness, memories, and personality traits into a new identical body upon the event of physical death. Beyond her hidden machine nature, she demonstrated master-level skills in investigative journalism, psychological manipulation, and media staging. She skillfully utilized a charming, disarming media persona to manipulate military crew members into dropping their emotional guards, effortlessly gathering restricted tactical intelligence and highly classified internal secrets during casual interviews.
