Axos

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference


Axos is a scavenger entity that came to Earth, supposedly in need of fuel. Its real motivations were to drain all energy from Earth in an attempt to gain the secret of time travel...

Biology

Axos was composed of several parts, but the most noticeable parts were the Axonite and the Axons.

Axonite

Axonite.

Axonite was the miracle element that the Axons traded with Mr. Chinn for the energy to re-fuel their ship. Axonite was a living substance and they claimed that it could be used to enlarge and decrease the size of organisms as well as copy them. It was sent around the world to key scientific points, where it would drain energy evenly from those points. (DW: The Claws of Axos)

Axons

Though Axons had humanoid features, they too were part of the main Axos structure. They first took the form of golden skinned humanoids, but they could also take the form of large, tentacled creatures. They were capable of morphing between various humanoid shapes and teleporting themselves and others. (DW: The Claws of Axos)

The Axons.

Strengths and Weaknesses

All the elements of Axos are unharmed by gunfire. Axos the craft however can be stunned if a nerve centre is shot. All Elements of Axos can feel the pain of each other. Axons are easily destroyed by explosions.

Technology

The Axons described their technology as having taken a more organic route. They grew their ships from Axonite. The ships were covered in eye, some embedded in walls other on stalks. The Axons could comunicate through them and the pupils lit up when they did so. Claws also covered the ship acting as restraints for prisoners. A long tube could be fired out the ship to drag victims within. (DW: The Claws of Axos)

History

Axos encountered the Master at an unknown point in time. They captured his TARDIS and kept him prisoner; he directed them toward Earth expecting an exchange for his craft.

The Axons in Japan.

Following their arrival on Earth, they attempted to start a 'feeding cycle'. They met with UNIT and promised them large amounts of axonite so they could enlarge food and end world hunger. UNIT ordered worldwide distribution of Axos. The Doctor realised that the Axons planned to use the axonite on Earth to drain the planet of all its energy. They took power from a nuclear power plant, they later raided the plant killing memebers of UNIT. They cloned Bill Filer to gain information but the real Bill escaped preventing this. The Doctor stopped them by placing Axos in a time loop. They created a story for the earthlings stating they had many planets but extreme solar winds had ravaged them. The Doctor doubted the story. Later he explained they were scavengers travelling and draining worlds. (DW: The Claws of Axos)

The Axons managed to escape the time loop, and infiltrated 21st Century Japan. Disguising themselves as humans, they produced a Television programme for children that promoted a new kind of soft drink, Goruda. When the children drank the liquid, they gained telepathic abilities and were slowly transformed into Axons. (DWM: The Golden Ones)

An Axon was imprisoned by the Department and imprisoned in Dauntless Prison, it was later set free by K9 Mark 2 and his friends. (K9TV: Liberation)

As it was wearing Human clothing, it may have came from the Japan invasion.
