The Roman Autons, named Plastic Romans by the Eleventh Doctor, were Nestene duplicates who posed as Roman soldiers as part of the Pandorica Alliance. (TV: The Pandorica Opens [+]Loading...["The Pandorica Opens (TV story)"])
Characteristics
Following flawed facsimiles, (TV: Spearhead from Space [+]Loading...["Spearhead from Space (TV story)"], Rose [+]Loading...["Rose (TV story)"]) this perfected form of Auton was identical in appearance and actions to the originals, mimicking humans perfectly. These units were implanted with false memories and actually believed themselves to be the real subjects they duplicated, being indistinguishable. The Auton copy of Rory Williams was even able to remember being erased from existence in the time field. The Autons served as sleeper agents until the Nestenes later asserted their influence, although the Rory Auton partially resisted this control.

When the Nestene Consciousness joined the Pandorica Alliance (TV: The Pandorica Opens [+]Loading...["The Pandorica Opens (TV story)"]) following its invasion of Earth in 2005, (PROSE: Revenge of the Nestene [+]Loading...["Revenge of the Nestene (short story)"]) it produced Autons disguised as Roman soldiers in 102 (TV: The Pandorica Opens [+]Loading...["The Pandorica Opens (TV story)"]) as part of the Total Collapse Event Incident. (PROSE: Dalek Combat Training Manual [+]Loading...["Dalek Combat Training Manual (reference book)"]) These, believing themselves to be genuine Roman soldiers, tricked the Eleventh Doctor, who realised too late what they were.
