Humans are a race of humanoids native to Earth. They are also referred to as Tellurians by some races such as the Androgum. Doctor Who Universe's humans seem similar to the humans of real life, though some of them have developed psychic powers.
Influence and Effects
Humans are probably one of the more influential races in the universe. Though not as well travelled as the Time Lords or as powerful as the Daleks, the human influence was felt throughout the universe. They spread across the universe, setting up colonies, meeting new races and making many advances technologically. In fact, one of the era of the universe (Humanian Era) is named after the humans.
Related species
Humans are an surprisingly long lived species, lasting for billions of years, despite numerous wars, battles and conflicts. In this time, humans have gone through speciation at least three times.
- The Immortals (from Deadly Reunion) are humans with advanced powers which claimed they were gods in the past.
- The Haemovores (from The Curse of Fenric) are a race of vampire-like humanoids from an alternate future.
- The New Humans (from New Earth) are the creation of the Sisters of Plenitude.
In his eighth incarnation the Doctor is described as being half human and half Time Lord, so a biological relationship may exist between humans and Time Lords. Lady Cassandra also mentions other human hybrids.
