Thal (Doctor Who)

The Thal race is a fictional race of humanoid aliens from the television series Doctor Who.

According to Thal oral history, they were once a warlike race, but following a terrible war with the Kaleds they renounced violence and became pacifist farmers. After centuries of this lifestyle, they were forced to take up arms again when the Kaleds - now developed into the aggressive and xenophobic Daleks - returned and attempted to wipe them out.
