Cybermen Doctor Who race: Cybermen Type: Cyborgs Home planet: Mondas / Parallel Earth First appearance: The Tenth Planet / Rise of the Cybermen The Cybermen were once Humans who were converted into Cybermen by having their brains removed and put into metal casing along with some of their flesh. A small chip was also put in to programme out their emotions. They were on the parallel Earth when the Doctor, Rose and Mickey met them but the Cybermen were in the original series. They were using earpods to control the minds of people so they would walk into the factories so they could be converted. Their creator, John Lumic was a crippled scientist who was dying. He too was converted but into a Cyber Controller. The Cybermen were defeated by having their emotion chips removed so they would remember who they were driving themselves insane. The Cyber Controller tried to climb onto the zepelin the TARDIS crew were escaping on, but with the use of the Sonic Screwdriver the rope was cut and the Cyber Controller fell to its death. However there were factories all over the parallel Earth so they may have managed to live on since they enter the normal universe in An Army of Ghosts/Doomsday, the 2006 series finale.
