Weeping Angel

HISTORY
The Weeping Angels looked like stone statues of humanoid women with wings. When Angels became older or grew weaker, they appeared to wear away as a normal statue naturally would over many years. This wearing would become so severe that they did not look like their original forms anymore, losing their wings and becoming more like a typical statue of significant age. These older Weeping Angels did not have the same speed as their "healthy" counterparts, but were still just as deadly.



The Weeping Angels had the ability to move creatures back through time with a touch. This allowed them to consume the potential energy from the time the victims could have had alive had the Angels not transported the victim back in time. The Angels were able to move people through both space and time.


The Weeping Angels also had a unique and nearly-perfect defence mechanism, quantum-locking which caused them to turn into stone when being observed. It could also be done at will, when they believed they were being watched. When not being observed, they could move incredibly fast to catch their victims. However, this meant that they had to cover their eyes when in their stony form; otherwise if they saw each other they would be trapped forever.


Anything with the image of the Angel, such as pictures or film, also gained the abilities of an Angel and would eventually become an Angel.When a victim looked the Angel in the eyes, this ability allowed them infect their visual centre, creating an image in their mind. Thus affected, the victim could be controlled by the Angel until they became fully grown, at which point they can escape the person's body (killing them in the process). This ability could only be stopped by shutting down the visual centre.The Angels were also able to take the consciousness of someone who had died and speak through it in order to communicate.


The Weeping Angels evolved near the beginning of the universe, and were (as the Doctor put it) the kindest of killers and psychopaths since their method of killing was to let their victims "live to death". This perhaps make them the loneliest beings in existence as, due to their defence mechanism, they could not even look at each other. In that respect the Doctor appears to pity them.
