The Hybrids do not have a completely human body, but rather appear to be more like cyborgs, consisting of conduits and other connectors mated to, or in place of elements of their bodies. The Hybrid is not one of the "twelve models" of humanoid Cylon, but is a separate model that effectively further bridges the gap from fully mechanical Centurion, to partially biomechanical Raider, to Hybrid, to humanoid Cylon. They are similar to the autonomous biomechanical pilots within Raiders, specially constructed as living computers that manage the autonomic functions of the basestar, including navigation and FTL jumps, climate control, and the like. The Hybrids are so integrated into the basestar's functionality that they are, for all practical purposes, the basestar.In addition, she continually speaks what most of the humanoid Cylons consider to be gibberish, although there is some difference of opinion on this point. Many Cylons believe a hybrid's conscious mind is completely mad and the functions one performs are part of a deeper state of mind in connection with the ship. Caprica Number Six states that the Leoben Conoy models believe that every word she says is channeled from the Cylon god. The Hybrid is not allowed a vote in the Cylon democratic process by the humanoids, though she sometimes objects to the course of action they take, for example, leaving another Basestar full of disease-infected Cylons to their fates.[1]In his Battlestar Galactica Podcast, Ronald Moore explained that the Hybrids should be considered a "Model 0" of humanoid Cylons, an intermediate step between humanoid and mechanical model Cylons.Baltar, who considered a brilliant scientist, probably deals in abstraction physics, and his ability to interpret the Hybrid's 'gibberish', could be considered a cakewalk for him. Or (if possible) being a possible Cylon (no affirmation as of yet), he can understand period. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> And the Hybird as mentioned above. is indeed of importance. And please note this...they are not subject to the privilege of resurrection.</blockquote>
