When Thorne overheard Gryffen tell June that using a Virtual Reality encasement suit he could travel to the [[Fallen Angels|fallen angel]] in [[Canada]] where the STM came from and get the temporal stabiliser allowing him to operate the STM properly. Thorne informed Lomax of this who ordered him to assist Gryffen. Thorne arrived at [[Gryffen Manor]] and gave him the encasement suit, they arrived in at the fallen angel crashsite where Gryffen was able to find the temporal stabiliser. He then spotted empty cyrogenic pods, Thorne (initally thinking only one Korven was released) was shocked to find they were all empty. Thorne had Gryffen taken away when he demanded to know what was in the pods and ordered the CCPC's to scour the tunnels. K9 and Starkey arrived at the crashed ship to help Gryffen where they ran into a Korven. When they met up with Thorne and Gryffen they alerted Gryffen that the Korven were there. Gryffen realised that the ship and the STM was Korven technology. When Thorne and the CCPCs left, Gryffen, K9 and Starkey was able to recapture the stabiliser (which Gryffen dropped). K9 and Starkey left with the stabiliser as Gryffen tried to escape from the CCPCs. He was met by a Korven who fired at him, he managed to evade it and leave the ship. When the CCPCs arrived the Korven chased them. Gryffen, Starkey and K9 arrived at Gryffen Manor where Gryffen and K9 agreed not to use the stabiliser on the STM or else it would allow the Korven to enter.

The Korven were a species of cold-loving ogre-like humanoids.
Biology
The Korven were green-skinned humanoids with large wing-like ears, 2 horns on their heads and 4 horns on their chin. The Korven were adapted to cold temperatures. (K9TV: The Korven)
Technology
The Korven who came to 2050 from 2618 had a wrist-mounted device capable of draining minds. Using a process called Leeching, it could extract the thoughts of an individual, leaving only an empty shell. During this process the Korven focused all their will on the victim, leaving them oblivious to outside forces. The wrist device also could stop people from speaking for ten minutes and shoot energy beams. The Korven also had means to create an immobilizing force fields, as well as causing levitation. It also brought a supply of phosphane gas. (K9TV: The Korven)
The Korven also used ships which were crewed by over 100 Korven, containing cryogenic pods and a Space-Time Manipulator. (K9TV: Angel of the North) The Korven homeworld was an unspecified ice giant similar to Uranus and Neptune but with a much thicker atmosphere. As a result the Korven need extreme cold and highly compressed air to survive.
Culture
The Korven had ambitions to rule time and space, their plans involved invading planets in the past that they failed to conquer in their own time.
Due to Lomax's manipulation of the British government, it is likely that the Korven operated under a corrupt totalitarian regime similar to what Lomax created.
History
Before 2050 a Korven spacecraft carrying a Space-Time Manipulator crashed in the frozen wastes of Canada. The Manipulator was later captured by The Department.(K9TV: Angel of the North)
In the year 2480, the Korven attacked Earth, but were unable to conquer it because of its heat. Hostility between Humanity and the Korven continued to at least the year 2618.
In 2618, the Korven learned that a device would be made in 2050 that would lower the Earth's temperature. One travelled back to 2050 using Professor Alistair Gryffen's Space-Time Manipulator. It kidnapped him, planning to steal the information of the device from his brain. Before it could do so, Darius, Starkey, Jorjie and K9 tracked it down, with K9 eventually incinerating it. (K9: The Korven)
Before the year 50'000, the Korven helped the Merons win their long war with the Jixen by supplying them with energy weapons to destroy the Jixen homeworld. (K9TV: Hound of the Korven) Four Jixen later hired a bounty hunter to assassinate Zanthus Pia. (K9TV: The Bounty Hunter) The Jixen fought the Hound of the Korven, K9 Mark I who witnessed the murder, they were then sent to 2050 London where K9 killed three of the Jixen and regenerated into a new form, forgetting his affiliation with the Korven in the process. (K9TV: Regeneration)
The Korven plotted to conquer Earth in the mid-21st century. Before 2050, a Korven named Lomax hijacked the British government and turned it into a corrupt, totalitarian government in preparation for the pending Korven invasion. By this time, government agencies MI5 and MI6 appeared to have merged together to form The Department (K9TV: Eclipse of the Korven) which also operated in the Americas, the Pacific Union and other lesser countries. (K9TV: Lost Library of Ukko) Lomax was aided by the Meron-Korven Hybrid Thorne, the governor of the Department's Dauntless Prison where Meron scientists secretly took DNA from alien prisoners to create Trojan. (K9TV: Liberation) When the Department's head of security Inspector Drake accidently almost destroyed Earth, Lomax had him replaced by Thorne. (K9TV: Black Hunger) Lomax later ordered Thorne to acquire the Regeneration unit of K9 Mark 2, the regenerated form of their former agent. (K9TV: Robot Gladiators)
When Thorne overheard Gryffen tell June that using a Virtual Reality encasement suit he could travel to the fallen angel in Canada where the STM came from and get the temporal stabiliser allowing him to operate the STM properly. Thorne informed Lomax of this who ordered him to assist Gryffen. Thorne arrived at Gryffen Manor and gave him the encasement suit, they arrived in at the fallen angel crashsite where Gryffen was able to find the temporal stabiliser. He then spotted empty cyrogenic pods, Thorne (initally thinking only one Korven was released) was shocked to find they were all empty. Thorne had Gryffen taken away when he demanded to know what was in the pods and ordered the CCPC's to scour the tunnels. K9 and Starkey arrived at the crashed ship to help Gryffen where they ran into a Korven. When they met up with Thorne and Gryffen they alerted Gryffen that the Korven were there. Gryffen realised that the ship and the STM was Korven technology. When Thorne and the CCPCs left, Gryffen, K9 and Starkey was able to recapture the stabiliser (which Gryffen dropped). K9 and Starkey left with the stabiliser as Gryffen tried to escape from the CCPCs. He was met by a Korven who fired at him, he managed to evade it and leave the ship. When the CCPCs arrived the Korven chased them. Gryffen, Starkey and K9 arrived at Gryffen Manor where Gryffen and K9 agreed not to use the stabiliser on the STM or else it would allow the Korven to enter. (K9TV: Angel of the North)
Thorne was able to trick K9 into giving him the regeneration unit by conducting a trade in the sewers with a false memory chip which turned K9 into a bomb set to detonate when he encountered a surviving Jixen in the sewers. However he was able to prevent himself from self-destructing.

Thorne then inserted the regeneration unit in his pet, the completed Trojan to make him indestructible. (K9TV: Hound of the Korven)
Sometime later, the STM activated and brought together a black hole and a white hole. K9 flied off to retrieve his regeneration unit from Thorne at the Millennium Dome with Starkey and Jorjie pursuing him just in case. Gryffen in the meantime tried to avert the space-time explosion that would occur when the two holes fuse together to form a gray hole. K9 is beaten by Trojan. He was wired up to a Korven cryo pod and forced to siphon the space-time energy from the preemptive explosion of the STM into the Dome. This generated a portal that allowed the Korven pan-dimensional invasion force to make their entry, led by Lomax. Thorne ordered the CCPCs to secure London, restraining every single civilian.

(K9TV: Eclipse of the Korven)
The Korven hoard in Canada will return in K-9's now confirmed second season in 2012.
