Chlorian

Chlorians were a primitive humanoid species native to Chloris.

Culture
The Chlorian culture was based around astrology and superstition. They were lead by lords and ladies, until the time of the Hunstman, who claimed that the Dark Ages of Chloris were over. It is unknown how the Chlorian culture was changed after this. The lack of metal on Chloris lead to many internal battles over the substance.

History
The Chlorians were once lead by Lady Adrasta, whose lust for power through the the scarcity of metal lead her to imprison the Thythonian ambassador Erato in a huge pit and feed those who defied her rule to him. The Doctor and Romana managed to communicate with Erato. The Hunstman, Adrasta's executioner, was enraged by this and killed Adrasta. He took control of Chloris and helped Erato to prevent the Tyhtonians from destroying Chloris in revenge. Adrasta's second-in-comand, Karela and the scavenger Torvin attempted to prevent this and destroy Chloris, but the Doctor stopped them. The Hunstman declared that the Dark Ages of Adrasta's rule were over and attempted to establish trading agreements with the Tythonians, beginning a new age for the Chlorians.
