Hornet: Difference between revisions

The '''Hornets''', collectively sometimes known as '''the Swarm''', were an insect species which resembled the hornets of [[Earth]], capable of possessing lifeforms. They lived in the depths of space, but came to Earth by accident where they had multiple encounters with the [[Fourth Doctor]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Hornets' Nest]]'')

The Hornets appeared visually similar to Earth's species of Hornet but could alter their size at will. This ability extended to other matter. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Dead Shoes (audio story)|The Dead Shoes]]'')

Escaping and possessing Mrs Wibbsey again in the Doctor's absence from Nest Cottage, the Hornets employed the [[Demon (The Relics of Time)|Demon]] to capture the Doctor and turn his mind into the [[Atlas of All Time]] at [[Sepulchre]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Sepulchre (audio story)|Sepulchre]]'') After numerous failed attempts to capture the Doctor, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Relics of Time (audio story)|The Relics of Time]]'', ''[[The Demon of Paris (audio story)|The Demon of Paris]]'', ''[[A Shard of Ice (audio story)|A Shard of Ice]]'', ''[[Starfall (audio story)|Starfall]]'') the Demon finally lured him to Sepulchre by kidnapping Mrs Wibbsey where the Hornets revealed themselves. Working with Mike Yates and the Demon, who he'd convinced to turn on the Hornets, the Doctor tricked Wibbsey into a sarcaphagos where he could transmat the Hornets away from her, sending them to the museum in Cromer on the date it burnt down.
