The Weeping Angels are one of the non-playable characters in LEGO Dimensions 2: The Rise of Enoch, from the Doctor Who franchise.
Background[]
According to The Twelfth Doctor, the Weeping Angels "are as old as the universe (or very nearly), but no one really knows where they come from." He also describes them as "the deadliest, most powerful, most malevolent life-form ever produced." Weeping Angels are unusual as predators in that they neither kill nor directly parasitize their prey. Their usual mode of feeding is to make use of time paradoxes - with a single touch, a Weeping Angel can send a person into the past to a point before his/her own birth, and can then feed off the "potential energy" of the years which that victim would have lived in the present. The Doctor describes the Angels 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.
Weeping Angels are an alien race, appearing as winged humanoids wearing sleeveless robes. Their signature trait is their unique defense mechanism. Whenever they are being observed, Weeping Angels are quantum-locked in a stone, statue-like form. However, once they are out of sight, even for a split second, they can move in rapid speeds. They become more monstrous in appearance as they close in on prey.
The only way to defeat a Weeping Angel is to get them to stare at each other, as even another Angel's stare can quantum-lock another. This is why they cover their faces and get their "Weeping" appearance.
Dimensions Crisis[]
A Dalektable Adventure[]
The Weeping Angels appear first on the cemetery of Trenzalore watching the heroes. Later they are seen in the damaged Cyber Factory and it appears that it is now under their control. After the lights begin to fail, the Angels start chasing the group through the factory. After some time, the group is cornered by four Angels, but thanks to Batman's quick thinking they escape through a trap door, leaving the Angels trapped looking at each other forever.
