Biology

The appearance of the Viyrans is unknown, as they were always seen to wear white hazmat suits. They appeared to be humanoid, with 3 fingers and a thumb on each hand. They had no real spoken language, but were able to communicate telepathically, through hand motions or by trying to replicate an individual's voice. (BFA: Patient Zero)

Technology

It could be speculated that the Viyrans created the Amethyst Viral Containment Station to safely store the deadly viruses that they created. They were known to use flying glass coffins to collect infected patients to try to cure them. They were also capable of time travel. (BFA: Patient Zero) They could modify the memories of others, as well as create perceptual barriers. (DWS: No One Died, BFA: Mission of the Viyrans)

History

The Viyrans origianted in a place far distant from Mutter's Spiral, Earth's galaxy. Template:Sorce

The Viyrans waged a war with an unknown force, using a variety of viral weapons. Peace was eventually reached, and the biological weapons were gathered together in Amethyst Viral Containment Station, planning to destroy them. A final peace agreement was reached and the biological weapons were gathered together at the Amethyst Viral Containment Station with the intention of destroying them. During an incident with the the Doctor and the Daleks the viruses were spread throughout the universe. They began travelling through the universe to find and cure these diseases. (BFA: Patient Zero)

In 1962, a viral particle fell onto Lower Downham, with the Viyrans following it to attempt to neutralise it. The virus was too dangerous, so the Viyrans evacuated the whole village and set up a perceptual barrier, making it seem to disappear. The Doctor and Rose interfered, but the Viyrans were able to successfully remove everyone. (DWS: No One Died)

In 1974, one of the Viyran viruses, transmitted through telephone lines, was found on Earth. It infected Lauren Hudson and caused her to have phenomenal luck. (BFA: Urgent Calls)
