Klineman Halpen: Difference between revisions

When he was six, Klineman Halpen was taken to the [[Ood Sphere]] and saw the giant [[Ood Brain]] within. He had his own personal [[Ood]] who looked after him, named [[Ood Sigma|Sigma]]. The stress associated with running Ood Operations made him lose much hair in five years, presumably after he assumed control of the business, and was dosed with [[hair tonic]] by Sigma. When the Ood began being infected with [[Red-eye]], Halpen arrived on Ood Sphere to oversee their eradication and establish control. When the entire Ood "livestock" were infected with this mysterious disease, Halpen ordered the gassing of all affected Ood, and intended to destroy the giant Ood Brain to contain the Red Eye and kill the Ood.

Ood Sigma led the [[Tenth Doctor]] and [[Donna Noble]] to the Ood Brain for the final confrontation. When Halpen's lead scientist, [[Ryder|Doctor Ryder]], revealed he was a [[Friends of the Ood|Friend of the Ood]] and had spent ten years infiltrating the Company to lower the [[telepathic barrier]] surrounding the Ood Brain, Halpen threw him into the Brain, which devoured him. Halpen was sensing defeat and suffering from intense headaches. Sigma revealed that he had used the hair tonic to dose Halpen with Ood graft suspended in a biological compound, turning him into an Ood as punishment for his attitude towards [[Oodkind]]. Sigma declared he would look after Halpen. ([[TV]]: ''[[Planet of the Ood]]'')
