The Cybermen are a "race" of cybernetically augmented humanoids. They have varied greatly in design between numerous different Cyber-subspecies and originated independently through parallel evolution from various locations across time, space, and universes. Although almost all Cybermen lack emotions, as they considered them to be a weakness and instead embraced pure logic, they were often born out of a human civilization's, or an individual's, fear for survival, which was often inflicted by threats such as poverty or the degradation of a civilization's world. Other times, the Cybermen were born out of an extreme desire for immortality. Through the misuse of Cyber-Technology, Cybermen could be born on other worlds even if civilization was not burdened by threats to survival. Throughout their collective history, the Cybermen established many Cyber-Empires and engaged in many different Cyber-Wars, often against humanity, which eventually led to the Cybermen being pushed to the edge of extinction. However, they always found ways to survive and rebuild, ultimately allowing the Cybermen to survive until the end of the universe.
