The '''Qurunx''' (pronunciation: ''Ku-runks'') were creatures of sentient energy, described by the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] as "one of the great mysteries of the universe", "rare", and "enough to power planets and civilisations". They resembled large ethereal jellyfish, with long thin tendrils glowing with blue and orange light. They utilised [[consciousness shield]]s as a defence, being able to disguise themselves to the observer as something that they would instinctively want to protect, such as a child. The energy that they produced could also be channelled into a beam capable of disintegrating planets. | The '''Qurunx''' (pronunciation: ''Ku-runks'') were creatures of sentient energy, described by the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] as "one of the great mysteries of the universe", "rare", and "enough to power planets and civilisations".

It was hidden with a [[rudimentary cloaking shield]]. To the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] and [[Yasmin Khan]], it appeared as a young humanoid child, due to its consciousness shield. This was until the [[the Doctor]] disabled it, revealing the true Qurunx form. Once freed, it was ordered by the Doctor to "disintegrate everything", but before it succeeded in destroying the metal planet, it was temporarily diverted into mortally wounding her instead by [[the Master]], leading to her [[regeneration]].
