The tribes left Kobol a few thousand years ago due to the war between the Lords of Kobol and the inhabitants. The details are kinda fuzzy, but it's something about one of the Lords of Kobol rising above the other Lords and demanding to be the only one worshipped. So who are the "Lords of Kobol"? And who is the one who caused the conflict leading to the exodus?
There was so much religious mumbo jumbo when they found Kobol that it was hard to keep track of, but I remember that the tribes used to live on the same planet (Kobol) with the Lords, and they all left when a huge war broke out. Some things that I think they have to answer are this:
1. If the lost 13th tribe are cylons ("a different model", according to Baltar at the beginning of this season), then who destroyed them when they settled on Earth? The Humans of the Twelve Colonies were unknown light years away when the attack came, and they had no knowledge of Earth's location, so unless it was a mass historical coverup, the Twelve Colonies couldn't have anything to do with it.
Could it be the Lords of Kobol? Or the renegade Lord of Kobol? Could they be the ones who destroyed Earth?
2. If humans of the Twelve Colonies created cylons only a few decades before the Cylon war broke out (and that was in Admiral Adama's lifetime), then how in the world were cylons created on Kobol before their exodus to Earth? And who created them? And were those Cylons of the 13th tribe original inhabitants of Kobol, or were they made on Earth by...something?
3. Who are the Lords of Kobol, really?
4. What is the deal with Starbuck's ship on the planet? And whose skeleton is that?
And one I want a personal answer to...
5.. In an episode last season, Galactica finds a probe left behind by the 13th tribe that turns out to be deadly to cylons but harmless to humans. I think it would be neat to explore that a bit more...like, why it was only deadly to the cylons and not humans. Perhaps because the tribe was, in fact, Cylons during the exodus (meaning that they were cylons built on Kobol)?
Hmmmm....
