Mister Dread
Mister Dread was a member of the Men in Black.
Biography
Dread was part of a mission to stop Humans realising the truth about the Grey aliens. He tracked down the Doctor, Cassie and Jimmy, but was damaged by Night Eagle. He managed to rebuild himself and retrieve the ionic fusion bar, bringing it back to Dreamland, where he was apparently destroyed by the sonic screwdriver. (DW: Dreamland).
According to Mister Dread, by the 1970's the Alliance of Shades was disbanded and the majority of his kind were decomissioned as a result, just as the Doctor had foretold. Despite this, the Alliance were unable to remove their hyperdimensional vault where they stored their confiscated alien equipment from Earth. In light of this, Dread and two androids were re-assigned to guard the vault indefinitely.
In 2010, Dread and two other agents were located in St Jude's Hospital, where they defended a vault which contained all of the items the Alliance had gathered. When Androvax in the body of a human women entered the Hospital Dread and the others were awoken by the premiter alarms and chased him off forcing him to abbandon his host due to his weakned state and the fact Veil are unable to posses in-organic life. He and the other agents stopped Sarah Jane Smith after Androvax sent her and the others their to free his people. When he discovered that Sarah Jane had taken a clipping of Ocean Waters's abduction by aliens, he and the other agents attacked Ocean's house. (SJA: The Vault of Secrets)
Personality
Like most Men in Black, Dread's personality was mostly cold. Dread claimed that the Alliance programmed him and he others without emotion because they believed they would make the androids less efficiant in their duties, though this lack of emotion contributed to most of them being deactivated by the 1970's. Despite this, Dread displayed a certain level of pride in himself, claiming he was one of the Alliance's more successful and efficient models. Even though he claimed he had no sense of humour, Dread appeared to have developed a dry sense of humour. This was evident when Sarah Jane damaged his car and he was bothered by another driver. The driver said he should have found a new vehicle. Smirking, Dread told the man he would take the man's van and ripped the door off its hinges, frightening the man off.
Abilities
Mister Dread was able to mind wipe those who saw alien activity. This mind wipe, however, could also leave traces of Dread himself. As an android, he also had the ability to remove his hand and produce a blaster, which shot green lasers. Although vulnerable to the Doctor's sonic screwdriver in 1958, by 2010 he was immune to the effects of Sarah Jane Smith's sonic lipstick. (SJA: The Vault of Secrets)
