The Shalka were a race who attempted to invade Earth in 2003. (WC: Scream of the Shalka)
Biology
The Shalka were made almost entirely out of lava, possibly making them some kind of magma form, and so they had no set form, though they did appear once as large worm-like creatures with cobra-like frills, but there were also Shalka of different sizes and shapes.
They lived underground, near where lava meets metamorphic rock, breathing in the volcanic air, though Shalka Prime, their possible leader, was able to speak english and breathe oxygen. They communicated by screaming and use sound as a weapon and a means of controlling "lower alien creatures", like humans, and to accomplish other tasks.
History
The Shalka Confederacy spread across a billion worlds, invading planets using meteorites and then linking them to the rest of the empire by wormholes which they convert from black holes. The Shalka used their screams to take over the planet's beings and make them scream to disrupt the atmosphere and scorch the planet's surface. While the surface was completely charred, it caused other species to think that the planet's population did it themselves while the Shalka lived comfortably under the earth. In essence, the Shalka were the death factor of the universe.
Sometimes, the Shalka merged themselves together to form a larger, lumbering and (seemingly) less intellegent body called the Shalka Conglomerate.
The Doctor encountered the Shalka on Earth in 2003 when they attempted to destroy the surface, but the Doctor was able to blow them up by singing on their freguency, and only an experienced Shalka was capable of surviving that attack, like Shalka Prime.
Their technitions had extra arms, and brains studded down their backs. (WC: Scream of the Shalka)
Behind the Scenes
- As the version of the Doctor who fought the Shalka does not exist in established canon, the Shalka themselves may not either.
