Meglos


 * For the story of the same name, see Meglos.

Meglos was a xerophyte, the last survivor of the Zolfa-Thurans.

Profile
Meglos (or his species) had the technology to intercept a TARDIS in flight and trap it in a Time loop. It impersonated the Doctor in order to access an energy source used by the Tigellans, called the Dodecahedron, which they used to power their city on Zolfa-Thura. Meglos succeeded in obtaining the Dodecahedron, however shortly after gaining access to it, Meglos and Zolfa-Thura were destroyed. (DW: Meglos)

Behind the scenes

 * Meglos was intended to return in DW: The Lodger; An early script depicted him encountering the Doctor, with the Doctor not remembering who Meglos was due to the regeneration effects.
