The Beast claimed to have existed [[Pre-Universe|before the Universe]], a claim that [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] found troubling to accept or consider as he believed nothing could have existed before then.  
The Beast claimed to have existed [[Pre-Universe|before the Universe]], a claim that [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] found troubling to accept or consider as he believed nothing could have existed before then.


It is known that the Beast had been at battle with the [[Disciples of the Light]]. The Disciples, who themselves existed before the Universe, bound him in giant chains and confined him to a pit in the centre of [[Krop Tor]], a planet in orbit around [[K37 Gem 5]], a [[black hole]]. If he ever tried to escape, the field holding Krop Tor in orbit would collapse and the planet would be sucked into the black hole, taking the Beast with it. Despite this, the Beast claimed that he was the basis of the Devil-figure in all religions. This included the [[Kaled]] [[God]] of War and the God of Evil for [[Draconia]] and [[Dæmos]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Satan Pit]]'')

In the year [[43K2.1]], the [[Walker Expedition]] came to Krop Tor, searching for the source of energy that kept the planet from falling into the black hole. The Beast possessed [[Toby Zed]] via the text transcribed into the [[Krop Tor Notebook]].

Through Toby, the Beast's first action was to kill [[Scooti Manista]] by breaking one of the windows after she witnessed the possessed Toby walking outside the station without a spacesuit. The Base's Ood were taken over, causing them to attack the other member of the Expedition.Upon the Ood's defeat, the Beast planned to escape by keeping his spirit in Toby's body, leaving his physical body behind. [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]] deactivated the force holding Krop Tor in orbit.
Through Toby, the Beast's first action was to kill [[Scooti Manista]]. He did this shortly after possessing him.  She had gone to his room to give him papers.  However, she was unfortunate enough to here Toby leaving through the air lock.  She went to the airlock to investigate.  She couldn't get a straight answer and eventually the computer said "He is awake" and "He bathes in the black sun" After a shutter opened she found Toby standing outside without a space suit.  Then Toby began trying to tempt her to join them.  She was hypnotized for a few moments.  Soon she refused.  Tehn the Beast had Toby clench his fist and begin breaking the window.  She gasped in fear and tryed to escape.  However, the Beast had sealed the section.  The window was soon torn apart.  Then the young Scooti was pulled out of the section by the rushing air kicking and screaming. The Base's Ood were taken over, causing them to attack the other member of the Expedition.Upon the Ood's defeat, the Beast planned to escape by keeping his spirit in Toby's body, leaving his physical body behind. [[Tenth Doctor|The Doctor]] deactivated the force holding Krop Tor in orbit.


His spirit was destroyed when Toby's body was pulled into the black hole, followed shortly by the Beast's original body, which was destroyed along with Krop Tor. However, he claimed that he would never be truly destroyed. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Satan Pit]]'') This could be supported by the Doctor's words that the Beast is an idea, not to mention the fact that the Beast's mind was detachable from its body, and neither an idea nor a mind can be destroyed by a physical construct, like a black hole.
