Zygons were [[hermaphrodite]] | Zygons were [[hermaphrodite|hermaphrodites]]. At the start of their lives, they had an almost white colour, had no suckers and were more feminine and graceful. They became [[orange (colour)|orange]]-coloured, were covered in suckers and became more stocky and masculine in appearance after being sterilised. The greatest rank a Zygon could attain was "warrior engineer". To become a warrior engineer, a Zygon must undergo sterilisation, a process which makes them more aggressive and single-minded.

Zygon technology was partly biological, with an organic look. This was exemplified by the [[Skarasen]], a large, cybernetically enhanced creature from their homeworld. Zygons were also known to depend upon the lactic fluid of the Skarasen for their survival.

One of the most important Zygon | One of the most important Zygon achiuevments was their use of [[body-print]]s. Usually, the Zygons would capture a specimen, such as a [[human]], and put them in a special receptacle. A Zygon could then take the form of this specimen, mimicking both voice and appearance. This body-print needed to be renewed every two hours, while the prisoners were kept alive but unconscious. ([[TV]]: ''[[Terror of the Zygons (TV story)|Terror of the Zygons]]'') However, in some circumstances they were able to adopt the shape of the specimen without keeping them in a receptacle, although they still needed the specimen alive. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Day of the Doctor (TV story)|The Day of the Doctor]]'') At some point they gained the ability to keep the shape of a deceased specimen, as long as they did not need any more information from them. They also gained the ability to forge a telepathic link with another being and take the form of a someone from their memory. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Zygon Invasion (TV story)|The Zygon Invasion]]'') | ||
