'''Castrovalvans''' were a civilised society that lived in [[Castrovalva]], a walled city also known as the Dwellings of Simplicity. According to their history books, Castrovalva originated as an alliance of warring hunters that gradually evolved into an ideal society.
'''Castrovalvans''' were a [[humanoid]] species native to [[Castrovalva]], created by [[Adric]] after [[The Master (Tremas)|the Master]] exploited his abilities with [[Block Transfer Computation]]s using a [[Hadron web]]. The Castrovalvans were lead to believe that they were once a tribal people, but developed into a democracy and, due to this, failed to see how the dimensions of their city didn't add up. This was until [[Fifth Doctor|the Doctor]] arrived and managed to convince the Castrovalvans to rise up against the Master. After Adric escaped from the Hadron web, Castrovalva crumbled, along with the Castrovalvans. ([[DW]]: ''[[Castrovalva (TV story)|Castrovalva]]'')
 
This history still resonated as some Castrovalvans liked to don colourful, furry hunting outfits complete with plumed oval helmets and hunt in the wilderness to keep fit long after they adopted their peaceful way of life.
 
Although some individuals had were troubled, the majority, led by the Portreeve (a kind of magistrate), led a carefree life until the arrival of the newly regenerated [[Fifth Doctor]], who was able to prove that their existence was far more fractured and illusory than many suspected.

Castrovalvans were a humanoid species native to Castrovalva, created by Adric after the Master exploited his abilities with Block Transfer Computations using a Hadron web. The Castrovalvans were lead to believe that they were once a tribal people, but developed into a democracy and, due to this, failed to see how the dimensions of their city didn't add up. This was until the Doctor arrived and managed to convince the Castrovalvans to rise up against the Master. After Adric escaped from the Hadron web, Castrovalva crumbled, along with the Castrovalvans.
