The Vlinx was a robotic being who came to work in the UNIT HQ in the City of London. It notably helped UNIT and the Fourteenth Doctor defeat the Toymaker in 2023.
OPERATION MAESTRO
Some time later, the Vlinx broadcast from UNIT HQ to the Royal Albert Hall to introduce the Fifteenth Doctor when he attempted to address the audience at a concert, only to detect an emergency: a member of the Pantheon of Discord was invading the venue. This turned out to be none other than Maestro, who forced the orchestra to begin playing terrible music to feast on the dissonance this produced within the minds of the audience. However, The Doctor contacted the Vlinx with a plan, which the Vlinx, managing to break through again, transmitted to the Royal Albert Hall audience: they must clap as loudly as possible, because in the symbolic logic by which Maestro’s powers operated, applause, which “only occurs when the music has stopped”, would counter-act Maestro’s powers. After this worked, the Vlinx made way for The Doctor himself to deliver a parting speech. (Pantheon of Discord)
STOPPING CONRAD CLARK
When Conrad Clark infiltrated UNIT HQ, the Vlinx analysed the personnel files and network traffic to identify who was working with him, suggesting either Ruby Sunday or Jordan Lang. The Vlinx retreated to the Vlinx’s safety hole when the Shreek was released. (Lucky Day)
