Weeping Angels

According to a time lord known as The Doctor, the Weeping Angels "are as old as the multiverse (or very nearly), but no one really knows where they come from." He describes them as the loneliest beings in the universe, since their quantum-lock reaction makes it difficult for them to socialise; he also describes them as "the deadliest, most powerful, most malevolent life-form the force has ever produced." That said, the Angels could communicate with each other and work in groups. They are also very physically strong, capable of snapping necks, though physically killing a victim is rare for them unless the need arises (such as stealing someone's voice). Another form of Weeping Angel is shown, the cherubim. Unlike the Weeping Angels they are not silent, making a childlike giggling and having audible footsteps. It is not explicitly stated that they are young Angels, but they are referred to as "the babies". The Weeping Angels possess several notable abilities. It is suggested that when Angels need bodies for communication they snap their victim's neck and rearrange the brains for their purposes. The Angels speak in their victim's voice, as "Angel Bob", a fallen soldier of the 501st, becomes the "voice" of the Angels and explains the Angels' motives and thoughts to the Doctor. As they close on more aware victims, their features transform from calm angels with normal proportions to more horrific, bestial demons with wide open mouths baring vampiric teeth and clawed hands. Their paramount ability is their speed, as they are able to close distances of metres literally in the blink of an eye, allowing them to reach a victim or move to an unseen or darkened area before their quantum-lock freezes them again. With a touch, a Weeping Angel can send a person into the past, to before his/her own birth. The Angels feed off the "potential energy" of the years their victims would have lived in the present. The Doctor describes them as "the only psychopaths in the universe to kill you nicely" because their victims are otherwise uninjured and may live out their lifespans in the past. They can drain other forms of energy, such as that from electric light, or other electronics. Without power, the Angels start to decay, turn to stone without being watched, and corrode as a statue does; their speed is also extremely hindered if Angels reach starvation, lessened from meters to a partial step in a blink. This can be undone by providing the Angels with energy, but it is implied they can no longer acquire energy themselves in this state. They have also exhibited the power to project themselves through images, as an Angel trapped in the vault of the Byzantium is able to control a video screen that was playing video footage of it. It overrode the screen controls and could control nearby electronic equipment as well. The Angel is able to take over the screen and come through it in an attempt to kill Mara Jade because "that which holds the image of an angel becomes itself an angel", from a warning in an ancient book on the Angels, found by Luke Skywalker. Also in the novel Touched by an Angel, a starving angel no longer has a physical being, and instead exists in the image viewed by cameras. As such, whatever is within the sight of the camera is within range of the angel. The angel retains fast movement, but at the cost of range. Normally,, the image would walk right out of the screen; but when it is starving, it cannot do so. To stop movement, simply viewing the screen is enough to lock the angel. Weeping Angels can plant an image of themselves into a person's mind by looking straight into their eyes. Mara Jade was infected in such a manner where an involuntary verbal count-down indicated her remaining open-eyed moments as a human. She was able to suspend the Angel's gestation, though not eliminate it, by closing her eyes, refusing to let it breach the 'filter' of her optic nerve. The Weeping Angels are well known to Han Solo as he was attacked by several sometime between the Battle of Yavin and the Battle of Hoth. It has been said by Princess Leia herself that she studied the Weeping Angels, and she had wanted to learn more about them. During the attack on Bespin, despite being removed from Cloud City's history, the Angels gained a small victory in permanently trapping Jaina Solo and her brother, Anakin  in the past when they supported Darth Ceadus and the Sith. During the invasion of Rhen Var, The Angels emerge from the snow covered ground of a frozen forest, the swirling blizzard causing both Han and Leia to be unable to see the approaching creatures clearly thus allowing them free movement in the snow storm. However the travellers are able to escape the Angels.
