Sometimes I forget, that conversations had in my living room with

sophia_helix do not automatically translate into having posted about it. So this BSG speculation is a few weeks old.

Kara's dad, who taught her the magical cylon song, was Daniel, the gentle artist 13th Cylon who was killed by Cavil. She is the actual first half-breed. That's why she's different and special and knew the magic song and paints mandalas.

Clearly Hera inherited a certain amount of cylon knowledge, like the song, so that is consistent.

It doesn't really explain the fact that Leoben is all obsessed with her exactly; although, I'd hazard a theory that he was possibly totally in love with Daniel and she is reminiscent of him.

Also, if the future really is cylon/human mutts, that really does make her the end of (pure) humanity like the hybrids keep saying.
