The Sea Devils | Legend of the Sea Devils |
Once the rulers of planet Earth, the Sea Devils were a species related to the Silurians. Like their reptilian cousins, they hailed from pre-historic times and pre-dated the existence of humans.Â
Â
The Sea Devils looked dinosaur-like, similar a modern-day turtle. With large eyes, beak-like mouths, webbed hands and feet and green-blue skin, they were extremely well-suited to their oceanic habitat. They were strong enough to live at the very bottom of the ocean and, though they could speak human languages, they mainly communicated by sonar.Â
Â
The Doctor first met the Sea Devils when the Master was trying to make an alliance with them. After some deep-sea building work brought them out of a long hibernation, the Sea Devils left their base and emerged on dry land. They eventually retreated after encountering the Doctor and Jo Grant, but were then sadly caught in a seemingly-fatal explosion.Â
The Thirteenth Doctor, Yaz and Dan met the Sea Devils once again when the infamous Madam Ching awakened Captain Marsissus and his pirate crew in 19th-century Asia. Fighting for the future of the planet, they eventually defeated these swashbuckling creatures of the deep with the help of new friends Ying Kei and Ji-Hun.
