Battlestar Galactica:

Born of reptilian aliens who were eventually overthrown by the machine race they had created, the mechanical menace known, as the Cylon Empire is one of the greatest threats to life and freedom in the cosmos. Built to labor, think and wage the wars of their organic Cylon masters the original Cylon Federation was destroyed when their machine warriors turned on them in a quest to fulfill their programming. purify the universe of imperfection.

IL SERIES DROID IL series droid is the most advanced form of Cylon machine currently in service to the Empire. IL droid like Lucifer (pictured right) are the brains behind the whole of Cylon civilization. IL's do the thinking, the strategizing and the governing of all those territories and races the Cylons have either come to subjugate or wipe from the cosmos. At the heart of every Cylon Base-Star there is an IL Droid giving the orders. Present Imperious Leader of the Cylon Empire is actually one of the same class IL Droids as Lucifer, following the destruction of the original Imperious Leader during the "Battle of Carolon." Plugged into the whole of the Cylon data network, the Imperious leader controls the whole of the Empire from the Imperial thrown on the Cylon home world, or from his royal flagship. When destroyed, another IL series droid will take the currents place. For unknown purposes the Imperious leader is adorned in what is believed to be the husk of an organic Cylon, a trophy of the machine's victory over their former masters.

CENTURION SERIES DROID Warriors of the Cylon Empire, the Centurion is a ruthless killing machine - polished armor over a reinforced chassis that's resistant to many caliber of weapons, including most hand held EM projectile launchers and light plasma weapons. Centurions are charged with the task of fighting both ground campaigns, fighter combat and the maintenance of Cylon command vessels. Average combat Cylons are capable of scanning in a wide range of electromagnetic frequencies, have super strength and are very well armed. Cylon Centurion makes up the backbone of the Cylon Empire's military force and while capable of intelligent thought their mental processes are purposely limited, so the Imperious Leader and other IL series droids can maintain control of the masses. Centurions are divided into two groups, command and subordinate, the command droid's position denoted by it's gold colored armor plating rather than the typical silver plating found on normal Centurions. Typical Cylons Centurions are armed with powerful pulse rifles that are much more powerful than the laser blasters used by Colonial warriors. Centurions are powered by nuclear fusion, though their power cells can also process oxygen and hydrogen gas and burns those gasses for fuel. This is the primary reason behind Cylon warships being pressurized.
