(The details from the audio story Eternal Summer included here were wrong - the rutan ship was what caused the stasis field and the year it enclosed was 1950.)

Viridios

Viridios was an entity that slept in the Earth for one million years, as a forest. A parasite, it fed off memories. It described itself as:

The spirit of the trees, the life force of nature. Viridios is the canopy of the forest, the creak of the branches in the wind, the roots plunging darkness to the Earth."Viridios [The Eternal Summer (audio story) [src]]

The being inspired many Earth legends, being portrayed in myths as "the green man", a symbol of rebirth.

Viridios awoke in 1950, the forest surrounding Stockbridge, possibly in response to the stasis field that had been formed, by an exploding Rutan Ship, around the town, creating a never-ending summer where no one could die. It used the Lord and Lady of the Manor, future versions of the Fifth Doctor and Nyssa, as puppets. Viridios fed on the happiest and saddest days of the Stockbridge locals, making them relive their entire lives everyday for eternity. The entity was defeated by Maxwell Edison's psychic power, as the "bubble" the ship had created finally "popped". (AUDIO: The Eternal Summer)
