The '''Dæmons''', ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Dæmons (TV story)}}, etc.) or '''Daemons''', ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Dreaming (short story)}}) a name pronounced "dee-mons", and not "day-mons", ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Dæmons (TV story)}}) were a race of powerful [[humanoid]]s who profoundly affected [[human]]kind.


==Characteristics==
== Biology ==
===Appearance===
Dæmons could use their technology to change their size ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'') and shape. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[T. memeticus: A Morphology (short story)|T. memetics: A Morphology]]'') Some appeared as [[satyr]]-like [[humanoid]]s with reddish skin ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[Dæmos Rising (home video)|Dæmos Rising]]'') or thick fur. These Dæmons often had sharp fangs, pointed ears, thick beards and long horns. Their legs were goat-like, with cloven hooves. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'')
Dæmons are [[satyr]]-like [[humanoid]]s with reddish skin and thick fur. They have sharp fangs, pointed ears, a thick beard and long horns. Their legs are goat-like with cloven hooves. They are around thirty feet tall naturally, but they can change their size with their technology. Dæmons have the ability to discharge bolts of [[electricity]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Dæmons]]'') Some of this species, like the traditional picture of a [[demon]], possessed long, forked tails. ([[DWM]]: ''[[Voyage to the End of the Universe]]'')


===Culture===
During war, Dæmons would manifest in spatiodynamic bodies with vast wings, sweptback horns, and long necks, allowing them to glide through [[hyperspace]] with minimal effort. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Interference - Book Two (novel)|Interference - Book Two]]'')
The Dæmons had a horned [[god]] of evil. Though this may simply seem like a personified god, [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] surmises that it was actually inspired by [[the Beast]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Satan Pit]]'')


[[Third Doctor|The Doctor]] seemed to initially regard them as not evil, but coldly logical and amoral, without sentiment, which [[Azal]]'s actions would bear out. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Dæmons]]'').
Some Dæmons had long, forked tails. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Voyage to the Edge of the Universe (comic story)|Voyage to the Edge of the Universe]]'')
However, they also seemed to organize according to the nuclear family structure and care for their mates and children. ([[DWM]]: ''[[Voyage to the End of the Universe]]'') At a later stage of his life [[Seventh Doctor|the Doctor]] had made the acquaintance of a friendly Dæmon known as [[Bonjaxx]] and attended a birthday party in honor of him. ([[DWM]]: ''[[Party Animals]]'').


===Powers===
== Culture ==
The Dæmons had [[Clarke's Law|technology indistinguishable from magic]]. They possessed matter-energy conversion technology which allows them to shrink and grow things at will. They used this to increase both their own size (which can range from microscopically small or to thirty feet tall) and to reduce the size of their ship in order to hide them. They also have the ability to set up heat [[force field]]s which can disintegrate anything that moves into it. They can also animate stone statues, as with the living gargoyle known as [[Bok]].
Like a million other worlds "right across the universe", [[Dæmos]] had "the representation of the horned beast" in its myths and legends. [[The Beast (The Impossible Planet)|The Beast]] claimed to be this "devil", along with all of the others in every [[religion]] which had such a figure. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Satan Pit (TV story)|The Satan Pit]]'')


A Dæmon could be psychically summoned by a special ritual, three of which were performed by [[the Master]]. The ceremony require negative emotions such as fear, which can be provided by frightened [[Human]]s. The more people that are involved and the more impressive the ritual, the more effective it is. Though these negative emotions can power the Dæmon, it also means positive emotions can be dangerous. A Dæmon will only appear three times to these rituals.  
The [[Third Doctor]] seemed to initially regard the Dæmons as not evil, but coldly logical and amoral, without sentiment, which [[Azal]]'s actions would bear out. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'') They did only what they wished; self-sacrifice would have destroyed them. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[T. memeticus: A Morphology (short story)|T. memeticus: A Morphology]]'')


Azal offered his powers to the Doctor when [[the Master]], who desired them, had proved himself unworthy. This would suggest that they can give their powers if they choose to. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Daemons]]'')
However, they also seemed to organise according to the nuclear family structure and care for their mates and children. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Voyage to the Edge of the Universe (comic story)|Voyage to the Edge of the Universe]]'') At a later stage of his life, the [[Seventh Doctor]] had made the acquaintance of a friendly Dæmon known as [[Bonjaxx]] and attended a birthday party in honour of him. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Party Animals (comic story)|Party Animals]]'')


==History==
== Technology ==
The Dæmons were an ancient race from [[Dæmos]] ([[DW]]: ''[[The Daemons]]'') who were powerful [[150 million BCE|150 million years ago]]. They were involved in the [[Millennium War]] and were one of the first species to strike back against the [[Mad Mind of Bophemeral]] stopping it from using a dark-matter cloud in the [[Rift of Perseus]]. ([[PDA]]: ''[[The Quantum Archangel]]'')
The Dæmons had [[Clarke's Law|technology indistinguishable from magic]]. They possessed matter-energy conversion technology which allowed them to shrink and grow things at will. They used this both to reduce the size of their ships and to manipulate their own size. They also had the ability to set up heat [[force field]]s which could disintegrate anything that moved into it. They could animate stone statues, as with the living gargoyle known as [[Bok]]. They could also discharge bolts of [[electricity]].


The Dæmons studied he other races, treating the universe as their laboratory. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Daemons]]'') Using a spacecraft, one Dæmon travelled to the edge of the physical [[universe]], a feat achieved by few other beings. ([[DWM]]: ''[[Voyage to the End of the Universe]]'')
A Dæmon could be psychically summoned by a special ritual, three of which were performed by {{Delgado}}. The ceremony required negative emotions such as fear, which could be provided by frightened [[human]]s. The more people that were involved and the more impressive the ritual, the more effective it was. Though these negative emotions could power the Dæmon, it also meant positive emotions could be dangerous. A Dæmon would only appear three times in response to these rituals.


By the [[20th century]] all the Dæmons, save [[Azal]], had died. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Daemons]]'')
Azal offered his powers to the [[Third Doctor]] when the Master, who desired them, had proved himself unworthy. This would suggest that they could give their powers if they chose to. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'')


===Effects on human development===
Like their peers of the [[Osirian Court]], their technology level qualified them for diplomatic and scientific relations with the [[Great Houses]] of [[the Homeworld]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[T. memeticus: A Morphology (short story)|T. memeticus: A Morphology]]'')
Circa [[Early human history|100,000 years ago]], they arrived on [[Earth]], helped the [[Human]]s overcome the [[Neanderthal]]s and then tried to lead their evolution and development. They are also known to have destroyed failed experiments, such as [[Atlantis]].


The Dæmons inspired myths of [[god]]s and [[demon]]s and the image of powerful beings with horns, including the [[Egypt]]ian Khnum, as well as [[Satan|the Devil]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Daemons]]'')
== History ==
The Dæmons were an ancient race from [[Dæmos]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'') who were powerful [[Distant past|150 million years BC]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Quantum Archangel (novel)|The Quantum Archangel]]'') during the [[Dark Times]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') They were involved in the [[Millennium War]] and were one of the first species to strike back against the [[Mad Mind of Bophemeral]], stopping it from using a dark-matter cloud in the [[Rift of Perseus]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Quantum Archangel (novel)|The Quantum Archangel]]'') A Dæmon was one of the only beings to successfully travel to the [[edge of the universe]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Voyage to the Edge of the Universe (comic story)|Voyage to the Edge of the Universe]]'')


:''Possibly they gave the Atlanteans the [[Kronos Crystal]], which did indirectly cause the destruction of Atlantis, which seems not to have had any direct Dæmon involvement. ([[DW]]: [[The Time Monster]])''
The Dæmons studied other races, treating the universe as their laboratory. The [[Third Doctor]] said that, circa [[BC#Prehistory|100,000 years BC]], the Dæmons arrived on [[Earth]] and helped the [[human]]s to overcome the [[Neanderthal]]s before trying to lead their [[evolution]] and development ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'') in exchange for allegiance, as they often did with [[lesser species]] throughout the cosmos. Successful experiments were brought to be further cultivated in the [[Infernal Sphere]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[T. memeticus: A Morphology (short story)|T. memeticus: A Morphology]]'') but failed experiments like [[Atlantis]] were dispassionately destroyed. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[T. memeticus: A Morphology (short story)|T. memeticus: A Morphology]]'') According to one account, the Dæmons gave the [[Atlantean]]s the [[Crystal of Kronos]], which later indirectly caused the destruction of Atlantis. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Quantum Archangel (novel)|The Quantum Archangel]]'', [[TV]]: ''[[The Time Monster (TV story)|The Time Monster]]'')


==Notes==
The Dæmons' ultimate goal was to cultivate a [[Child of Time]], binding it to them so that they could leave Dæmos of their own free will. They interfered with human history to bring about such a creature. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Child of Time (novel)|Child of Time]]'')
Apart from the Dæmons, it seems that actual [[demon]]s do exist.


==Behind the Scenes==
The Third Doctor said that the Dæmons inspired myths of [[god]]s and [[demon]]s and the image of powerful beings with horns, including the [[Egypt]]ian god [[Khnum]]. They had been "coming and going ever since". [[Olive Hawthorne|Miss Hawthorne]] identified Azal as "[[Satan|the Devil]]". According to the Doctor, the Dæmons inspired the [[Greek]] civilisation, the [[Renaissance]] and the [[Industrial Revolution]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'')
When the then-current production team of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' created the Dæmons for the story of the same name, they had no idea that later stories would introduce true demons into the [[Doctor Who Universe]]. Equally, the next year in the story ''[[The Time Monster]]'' they contradicted the scripts reference to the Dæmon having destroyed [[Atlantis]], substituting a completely different explanation. Future writers would also portray the Dæmons as much more human and emotional.
 
[[Wesley Sparks]] claimed to have duelled Dæmons as one of his many achievements. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Mortal Beloved (comic story)|Mortal Beloved]]'')
 
The Dæmons suffered some sort of massive cataclysmic event. It was a battle of somekind as the Dæmon corpses were found in their battle form. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Interference - Book Two (novel)|Interference - Book Two]]'') According to [[River Song|Melody Malone]], when the [[Kotturuh]] came to bring [[mortality]] to the universe, the Dæmons refused to let themselves be made mortal, instead fighting back against the Kotturuh in a mighty conflict that nearly wiped them out. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') Alternatively, the [[War Master]] recalled [[Bilis Manger|the regulator]] as the destroyer of the Dæmons. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Sublime Porte (audio story)|The Sublime Porte]]'') Melody Malone believed that [[Azal]], who had hid out in stasis on [[Earth]], was the only survivor of the race. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Guide to the Dark Times (short story)|The Guide to the Dark Times]]'') In the [[20th century]], Azal indeed called himself the last of the Dæmons. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Dæmons (TV story)|The Dæmons]]'')
 
However, another Dæmon called [[Mastho]] took over monitorship of Earth after Azal's death. He was summoned to Earth at three different points of time. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Child of Time (novel)|Child of Time]]'') Firstly, he was summoned to [[2004]], where [[Kate Stewart]] and [[Douglas Cavendish]] stopped him. ([[HOMEVID]]: ''[[Dæmos Rising (home video)|Dæmos Rising]]'') The second time was in [[1586]], where [[the Sodality]] wished to harness his powers for their own benefit. Sensing that a Child of Time had been created by humans in this period, Mastho told the [[Grand Master]] and his [[Emily Blandish|Chancellor]] to eliminate all [[time channeller]]s and [[time sensitive]]s in order to lure it out into the open. He told them, once this was done, to summon him once more in [[2586]]. At the site of the final summoning, Mastho called [[Maria (Child of Time)|Maria]], the Child of Time, to him. Maria refused to obey him and escaped into the [[time vortex]], before committing suicide in [[1949]], the only way she knew of to stop Mastho's plans. Failing in his duty, Mastho self-destructed, consumed by the psionic energies he once commanded. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Child of Time (novel)|Child of Time]]'')
 
Daemons were part of a [[fleet of Alien Monsters]] whose threat to [[Fleet of Alien Monsters' attempted destruction of Earth|destroy]] [[Earth]] was opposed by a [[Legendary Legion]] assembled by the [[Fourth Doctor]]. ([[GAME]]: {{cs|Doctor Who Trump Card Game (game)}})
 
[[Faction Paradox]] used the skeletal remains of the Dæmons as [[Faction Paradox warship|warships]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Interference - Book Two (novel)|Interference - Book Two]]'') After [[Baphomet]] and [[Byzo]] tried to obtain [[metagenic field]] technology from the [[Great Houses]] in exchange for information about a crashed [[TARDIS|timeship]] on [[Earth]], Lady [[Thelema]] used a hand[[bell]], an ancient book, and a candle to kill them. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[T. memeticus: A Morphology (short story)|T. memeticus: A Morphology]]'')
 
== Minor references ==
The Dæmons were filed in the [[Fourth Doctor]]'s memory files. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Iron Legion (comic story)|Doctor Who and the Iron Legion]]'')
 
When the [[Skith Leader]] scanned the [[Tenth Doctor]]'s mind, Azal was among the alien creatures shown to him. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The First (comic story)|The First]]'')
 
During the [[Siege of Trenzalore]], when [[Vida Clatterly]] asked the [[Eleventh Doctor]] if magic was real, one component of his reply, which he delivered "smil[ing] as if with nostalgia", went: "There are some races so ancient that their science appears to be a form of magic – the Daemons, the [[Osiran]]s, the [[Carrionite]]s, the [[Hervoken]]…".

The Dæmons, (TV: The Dæmons [+]Loading...["The Dæmons (TV story)"], etc.) or Daemons, (PROSE: The Dreaming [+]Loading...["The Dreaming (short story)"]) a name pronounced "dee-mons", and not "day-mons", (TV: The Dæmons [+]Loading...["The Dæmons (TV story)"]) were a race of powerful humanoids who profoundly affected humankind.

Biology[[edit] | [edit source]]

Dæmons could use their technology to change their size (TV: The Dæmons) and shape. (PROSE: T. memetics: A Morphology) Some appeared as satyr-like humanoids with reddish skin (HOMEVID: Dæmos Rising) or thick fur.

(COMIC: Party Animals)

Technology[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Dæmons had technology indistinguishable from magic. They possessed matter-energy conversion technology which allowed them to shrink and grow things at will. They used this both to reduce the size of their ships and to manipulate their own size. They also had the ability to set up heat force fields which could disintegrate anything that moved into it. They could animate stone statues, as with the living gargoyle known as Bok. They could also discharge bolts of electricity.

Like their peers of the Osirian Court, their technology level qualified them for diplomatic and scientific relations with the Great Houses of the Homeworld. (PROSE: T. memeticus: A Morphology)

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Dæmons were an ancient race from Dæmos (TV: The Dæmons) who were powerful 150 million years BC, (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel) during the Dark Times. (PROSE: The Guide to the Dark Times) They were involved in the Millennium War and were one of the first species to strike back against the Mad Mind of Bophemeral, stopping it from using a dark-matter cloud in the Rift of Perseus. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel) A Dæmon was one of the only beings to successfully travel to the edge of the universe. (COMIC: Voyage to the Edge of the Universe)

The Dæmons studied other races, treating the universe as their laboratory. The Third Doctor said that, circa 100,000 years BC, the Dæmons arrived on Earth and helped the humans to overcome the Neanderthals before trying to lead their evolution and development (TV: The Dæmons) in exchange for allegiance, as they often did with lesser species throughout the cosmos. Successful experiments were brought to be further cultivated in the Infernal Sphere, (PROSE: T. memeticus: A Morphology) but failed experiments like Atlantis were dispassionately destroyed. (TV: The Dæmons, PROSE: T. memeticus: A Morphology) According to one account, the Dæmons gave the Atlanteans the Crystal of Kronos, which later indirectly caused the destruction of Atlantis. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel, TV: The Time Monster)

The Dæmons' ultimate goal was to cultivate a Child of Time, binding it to them so that they could leave Dæmos of their own free will. They interfered with human history to bring about such a creature. (PROSE: Child of Time)

The Third Doctor said that the Dæmons inspired myths of gods and demons and the image of powerful beings with horns, including the Egyptian god Khnum. They had been "coming and going ever since". Miss Hawthorne identified Azal as "the Devil". According to the Doctor, the Dæmons inspired the Greek civilisation, the Renaissance and the Industrial Revolution. (TV: The Dæmons)

Wesley Sparks claimed to have duelled Dæmons as one of his many achievements. (COMIC: Mortal Beloved)

The Dæmons suffered some sort of massive cataclysmic event. It was a battle of somekind as the Dæmon corpses were found in their battle form. (PROSE: Interference - Book Two) According to Melody Malone, when the Kotturuh came to bring mortality to the universe, the Dæmons refused to let themselves be made mortal, instead fighting back against the Kotturuh in a mighty conflict that nearly wiped them out.

He told them, once this was done, to summon him once more in 2586. At the site of the final summoning, Mastho called Maria, the Child of Time, to him. Maria refused to obey him and escaped into the time vortex, before committing suicide in 1949, the only way she knew of to stop Mastho's plans. Failing in his duty, Mastho self-destructed, consumed by the psionic energies he once commanded. (PROSE: Child of Time)

Daemons were part of a fleet of Alien Monsters whose threat to destroy Earth was opposed by a Legendary Legion assembled by the Fourth Doctor. (GAME: Doctor Who Trump Card Game [+]Loading...["Doctor Who Trump Card Game (game)"])

Faction Paradox used the skeletal remains of the Dæmons as warships. (PROSE: Interference - Book Two) After Baphomet and Byzo tried to obtain metagenic field technology from the Great Houses in exchange for information about a crashed timeship on Earth, Lady Thelema used a handbell, an ancient book, and a candle to kill them. (PROSE: T. memeticus: A Morphology)

Minor references[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Dæmons were filed in the Fourth Doctor's memory files. (COMIC: Doctor Who and the Iron Legion)

When the Skith Leader scanned the Tenth Doctor's mind, Azal was among the alien creatures shown to him. (COMIC: The First)

During the Siege of Trenzalore, when Vida Clatterly asked the Eleventh Doctor if magic was real, one component of his reply, which he delivered "smil[ing] as if with nostalgia", went: "There are some races so ancient that their science appears to be a form of magic – the Daemons, the Osirans, the Carrionites, the Hervoken…".
