The '''Cybermen''' were a race of artificially modified [[human]] or [[near-human]]s.
 
==History==
A Cyberman army was buried under the ice in the [[Arctic Circle]] and had been for tens of thousands of years after being hit by a temporal storm. An excavation began to awaken the army, releasing [[Cybermat (Blood of the Cybermen)|Cybermats]] which in turn created [[Cyberslave]]s. The [[Eleventh Doctor]] arrived on May 4th 2010 and stopped their awakening. He blew up their base and put them back into stasis. ([[VG]]: ''[[Blood of the Cybermen]]'')
 
The Doctor acquired a chest plate from one of these Cybermen and kept it in the TARDIS drawing room. ([[VG]]: ''[[TARDIS (The Adventure Games)|TARDIS]]'')
 
==Behind the scenes==
* It was not stated whether these Cybermen were of the [[Cyberman|Mondasian]] or [[Cyberman (Pete's World)|Cybus]] kind. They greatly resemble the Cybus Cybermen and are said to be brains in metal shells ala the Cybus creations. However, a "Who Fact" on Cybermen in the game refers solely to the Mondasian Cybermen, while another on Cyber-Biology refers first to Cybermen and then "the Cybermen created by [[John Lumic]]" as if they're a different group; the Cybermats, their awareness of the fact that the Doctor is a [[Time Lord]], and his reference to "races" conquered by them further indicate that they are the Mondasian versions. However, the Cybus Cybermen also seemed aware of the doctor and who he was when they joined [[The Alliance|the Alliance]] and also have a vast fleet of ships, indicating that they have captured and converted more species. Furthermore, their[[ Electro Attack|&nbsp;Electro Attack]] more greatly resembles the Mondasian one seen in [[The Moonbase|''The Moonbase'']] and ''[[The Tomb of the Cybermen]]'' than the Cybus one, as it is a ranged attack. Furthermore, these Cybermen lack the Cybus logo and instead feature a stylised logo of a Cyberman's head.
