The Jaftee are primitive ape like humanoids from the planet Karris in the Andromeda Galaxy.
Biology
The Jaftee appear as small, squat primates, similar to chimpanzees. They have short, powerful arms and long copper-coloured hair that flows down their backs. The Jaftee cannot survive on the harsh, desert surface of Karris, so they live in cave systems under the ground.
Society
The Jaftee collect religions as one would collect stamps. They often have two or three different religions at the same time, often mutually incompatible. On top of this, the Jaftee never actually believe any of them either; they just reason that it is the pinnacle of sophistication to believe in things with no proof. The Jaftee are not keen on killing, except when it is ‘particularly showy’.
Technology
The Jaftee are primitive tool users who had mastered fire and could construct buildings. Despite this simple technological level, they seemed to understand that the Cult of Shining Darkness (who they worshiped as gods) were not ‘from Heaven’ but in fact flew about in ‘a big, metal box’, despite the fact that they had never observed this.
History
The Jaftee were visited by the Cult of Shining Darkness during their campaign to wipe out all mechanical life. The Cult left a part of a device in the care of the Jaftee, claiming it was a sacred artefact and that they would return to collect it later.
During this interlude, the Jaftee renounced the ‘Gods of Shining Darkness’ for other religions, including the Adorers of the Fractured Stars and worship of the Chicken of the Apocalypse.
They came back to claim the artefact much later, bringing the captive Donna Noble with them. To reinstate the old belief, Donna claimed that she was the ‘Ginger Goddess’. The Jaftee promptly began to worship her. (NSA: Shining Darkness).
