Inferred through the aftermath of their actions—their signature on the assault, the stolen TARDIS, and the use of neuronic stun weaponry—and discussed directly by the Doctor and Jo as a controlled force rather than independent actors.
As mercenaries, they wield significant destructive capacity and mobility but operate under the command and control of external patrons, limiting their strategic autonomy.
