Called the Tritovore, it will be unleashed in the Easter special to do battle with the Timelord and sidekick Lady Christina de Souza - played by former EastEnders star Michelle Ryan.
Bosses want the monster to become as iconic as the Daleks and Cybermen.
A set source said: "Scriptwriters are confident they'll make a huge impact.
"Everyone remembers the Daleks and the Cyberman, but not a lot else if they're honest.
"The Tritovore will change that. They are disgusting and will last long in the memory."
Series boss Russell T Davies is hoping to use the creatures in three other special shows.
David Tennant quits as the doctor this year. The source added: "Russell is telling everybody to expect some real surprises. He wants him to go out with a bang."
