From the planet Meteos the Phoenixwas a creature most commonly known in the form of a bird that had red and orange feathers, a featherless head, a yellow beak, long sharp claws and a body bathed in fire. But that is only a part of their long-life cycle of repeated re-birth. They lived by feeding off energy – light, heat, sound even thought. They consumed all the energy they could before they reverted into a shapeless mass, waiting until they found a new food source, from which a new egg was created and hatched. Believed to be extinct, the Phoenix had destroyed their own planet through their own greed and was forced to drift in space.
One arrived in Arabia on Earth where it became the source of myth and legend but was destroyed before it could consume the planet. Another was known to appear in the TARDIS but was tricked into leaving the TARDIS by the Doctor and resumed its flight in the Vortex in search of a new energy source. (DWM: The Bird of Fire)
The Phoenix may also known as The Cinder and the same creature encountered by The Doctor in London, 1814. (CC: Frostfire)
