Cyber-Voord
The Cyber-Voord (AUDIO: The War Master [+]Loading...["The War Master (audio story)"]) were created on Marinus, also known as Planet 14. The Voord converted themselves into Cybermen, having began experimenting with a Worldshaper, which accelerated time locally and "quick-evolved" them. Over time they replaced their body parts with cybernetic parts. (COMIC: The World Shapers [+]Loading...["The World Shapers (comic story)"])
Bernice Summerfield once thwarted the Cyber-Voord on Kandalinga, a feat which she included in her books. (AUDIO: The War Master [+]Loading...["The War Master (audio story)"])
The Sixth Doctor, Frobisher, Peri Brown and Jamie McCrimmon attempted to stop the Voord. Jamie sacrificed himself to destroy the Worldshaper, which caused a blast that accelerated time. The Voord then evolved into entirely cybernetic creatures called Cybermen. (COMIC: The World Shapers [+]Loading...["The World Shapers (comic story)"])
According to one account, Marinus then became known as Mondas and the Voord were the ancestors of the Mondasian Cybermen. (COMIC: The World Shapers [+]Loading...["The World Shapers (comic story)"]) However, the Twelfth Doctor conversely believed that the Cybermen of Mondas and the Marinus Cybermen originated separately through parallel evolution.
