Pyroviles were [[humanoid]]s with a rock-based form with a magma interior. They were able to shoot flames out of their mouths, which could turn a human to ashes in seconds. They could be killed by sufficient quantities of [[water]], their internal heat snuffed out and their bodies solidifying. They were tall , up to thirty-three feet tall and resembling oversized [[Rome|Roman]] soldiers. Pyroviles came in two varieties - a shorter, easily-destroyed "Foot Soldier" and more advanced, fully grown Pyroviles, which could reach over twice this height. | Pyroviles were [[humanoid]]s with a rock-based form with a magma interior.

When disintegrated Pyroviles were breathed in by [[human]]s, these particles would slowly transform the humans into Pyroviles. The individuals would slowly turn into rock, until they were entirely stone. The Pyrovilles were also able to enhance the latent [[psychic]] powers that human [[brain]]s possess.

At some point in their history, the Pyroviles developed advanced technology from rock, and could travel into space. When their homeworld was stolen by [[Davros]] ([[DW]]: ''[[The Stolen Earth]]''), a group of Pyroviles escaped in an [[escape pod]], which crashed on [[Earth]]. The Pyroviles were obliterated in the explosion and eroded into dust in the core of [[Mount Vesuvius]]. They waited for thousands of years until they were woken by an [[earthquake]] in [[62]]. They influenced the soothsayers of Pompeii into creating a ventilation system, allowing the remains of the Pyroviles to be breathed in. These affected people, who were able to tell the future accurately from the [[time rift]] which formed around Pompeii. | At some point in their history, the Pyroviles developed advanced technology from rock, and could travel into space.

By [[79]], full-grown Pyrovilles had created a base beneath Vesuvius and planned to convert the power of the [[volcanic]] eruption to change all humans into Pyroviles and create a new [[Pyrovillia]]. The [[Tenth Doctor]] stopped this and knowingly caused Mount Vesuvius to erupt and destroy the Pyroviles and the nearby city of Pompeii. When asked by Donna Noble about the possiblity of them surviving the eruption, he revealed that the blast would be too powerful for even them to withstand.
