Pting

The Pting were a species that existed in the 67th century.

Biology
They fed off energy in order to survive. They were a vicious species, but were strictly non-carnivorous and didn't consume anything with organic matter. The Pting were able to consume any material that could incarcerate or threaten them, including the Thirteenth Doctor's sonic screwdriver making imprisoning them impossible and confining them to small areas dissuaded.

Little was known about them due to their fatally violent nature and it was not even known weather they were a species, birth, or creation. (TV: The Tsuranga Conundrum)

History
Many attempts to study the Pting had failed, as had all attempts to keep some in captivity. Nevertheless, by the 67th century, Item Seven Alpha Cubed of the Perils of the Constant Division was an vid-briefing that was available on the Tsuranga. It had been allocated the threat level, Chalice, which was the worst one.

Eve Cierco once encountered a Piting. It massacred her entire fleet and she learnt from the encounter that they kill relentlessly, a fact that she relayed to the Doctor when faced with another one.

Another Pting snuck aboard the Tsuranga in an attempt to consume its anti-matter power core only for the Thirteenth Doctor to stop them. (TV: The Tsuranga Conundrum)
