Template:Infobox organization

The Slitheen Family are a family of Raxacoricofallapatorian criminals from the planet Raxacoricofallapatorius. The Slitheen are rivals (and "cousins") with the Blathereen family, descendants of the Huspick Degenerate and cousins of the Rackateen Family. Blon said that they use Venom Grubs to dispose of family members not willing to engage in criminal activities (DW: Boom Town)

History

The Slitheen are dangerous criminals that have been banished from Raxacoricofallapatorius with the death sentence should they return. In the year 2006 they disguised themselves as various members of UK governments and attempted to seized control of the UK government and attempted to start a nuclear war. Their ultimate aim was to turn the Earth into a huge nuclear reactor pile and sell its remains off as starship fuel. (DW: Aliens of London, World War Three) Later, the surviving member on Earth, Blon attempted to blow up Earth with a nuclear explosion on the Cardiff rift. Unlike the earlier attempt, this was merely to help her escape Earth. (DW: Boom Town) Later, another branch of the family took over a building company called Coldfire in 2009 Earth, attempting to achieve the destruction of the Earth through different means. This group of Slitheen were eventually defeated by Sarah Jane. (SJA: Revenge of the Slitheen)

A group of Slitheen returned to Earth in the late 21st century with hostile intentions but went home after a short time. (TDA: Snowglobe 7)

After these attempt, their fortunes started to wane. They were put out of business by the Blathereen, since they were cheaper and more effective. In the year 2501, Ecktosca and Dram discovered the activities going on in Justicia and attempted to take over the operations. They were captured, but later escaped with the help of the Doctor. After the death of Don Arco, they stole the surviving warp-hole technology to rebuild their fortune. (NDA: The Monsters Inside)

Behind the scenes

  • The 2008 Storybook features an illustration, unconnected to any of the stories, of the Tenth Doctor and Martha hanging onto a cable in a lift shaft while surrounded by Raxacoricofallapatorians; however, there is no context with which to determine whether or not these are Slitheen.
