The Gastropods resembled [[humanoid]] [[slug]]s. They left a {{w|Snail slime|sticky trail}} behind them when they moved. They laid [[egg]]s which could remain fertile in [[space]]. Since apparently only their leader, Mestor, could communicate verbally, and they obeyed his commands without question, it is possible that they possessed only vestigial intelligence.

Jaconda, once a verdant paradise, became a despoiled wasteland once the Gastropod appeared and made the [[Jacondan]]s slaves in their own world. Their leader, Mestor, planned to make the Jaconda's sun go [[supernova]] so as to scatter Gastropod eggs into space. The [[Sixth Doctor]] killed Mestor and ended the reign of the Gastropods.
