Another Day in the Desert (TV story)

*"I don't understand. Why would you want to take us away from here? We'd have no purpose then."
"You don't think you can do more than shooting randos in a desert for the rest of your life? Excuse me for saying that sounds a bit tragic, mate."*
―Moerd Bosro and Taylor Bennett

***Another Day in the Desert*** was the eight episode of Series 18 of *Doctor Who*. It was the second part of a two-part story, preceded by *Fugitive of the Cybermen*.

## Synopsis

War never changes.

For army lieutenant Moerd Bosro, however, and his fellow squadron of trainee soldiers, that statement has never quite been so true. Stationed at a desolate and worn out hut in the middle of a red desert - with no memory of how they got there - the soldiers spend their days fighting countless hordes of enemies who seemingly appear from nowhere and their nights resting up. Not only that, but none of the soldiers seem to be questioning their current situation and why would they? None of them actually die and those unfortunate enough to be dragged away by the enemy merely wake up safe and sound in their beds come nightfall. Food, weapon and ammo stocks are refilled when no one is looking and if anything, it's all good target practice.

That's not good enough for the Doctor, however. When he arrives in the middle of the desert with Taylor and Luna, having jumped through the portal left abandoned in Revir and Mera's burnt out laboratory; what they're presented with only leads to further cause for concern.

What exactly happened here that means none of the soldiers question where they are and who actually are they? Where does their enemy come from? What is this setup - and the patchwork Cyberman armour they all wear - actually all for? And can they be broken from their delusions so that they might be freed?

Ark-556

**Ark-556** was an Silurian and Sea Devil exploration spaceship, intended to be used to leave Earth and explore the universe.

## History

A group of Silurians and Sea Devils boarded the Ark-556 over a million of years before 2345, with the intent of escaping Earth by launching into space. However, it never took off and the species remained underwater, asleep. That was until an Alliance expedition discovered the ship. The ship's security systems kicked in as the Alliance boarded and woke up the Silurians and Sea Devils, who engaged in a skirmish against the humans, believing them to be hostile. (TV: *Ark-556*)

The fighting was stopped by the Twentieth Doctor and Drelick, who proposed a peace conference in orbit around Sol 1. Despite extremists from both sides interfering - who wanted to stop the peacemaking and claim Earth all for themselves - a deal was brokered and the peaceful Silurians and Sea Devils from the group were able to integrate themselves into Earth society. Ark-556 was subquently left underneath the Pacific Ocean, its usefulness come to an end. (TV: *The Big Blue Conference*)
Ahead of the Curve (comic story)

**Ahead of the Curve** was the second three-part story of the Doctor Who: Galactic Census comic story series published in 2043.

## Summary

In this gruesome tale, Tari is sent to investigate a mysterious auction on a moon far away; black tie and formal invite only - so is it any real shock to discover that the auctioneer's intent is anything but harmless...?

Surrounded by some of the biggest celebrities of the era, Tari is in for the fright of her life when she finds out what exactly is being sold here; various body parts sourced from an unknown location - not only that, but people here also seem to be gifting each other with the freshly decapitated heads of their fellow peers! And when Tari is caught snooping around the forbidden section with her fake invite, will there be any escape when she's sent to the meat grinder?

## Characters

Daniel O'Brien

**Daniel "Danny" O'Brien** was a human companion of the Twenty-Fourth Doctor.

## Biography

### Early life

Daniel was born in Michigan in 1993 with mild autism and had been best friends with Anna Delgado since high school; a strictly platonic relationship. He worked with Anna, which eventually led to him stumbling into the Doctor's world at Anna's Christmas party, becoming heavily involved into solving the Dalek infiltration plot.

## Personality

Danny was a very friendly and laid-back guy, wanting to be able to help in any situation he can.
Catalast

The **Catalasts** were the native species of Catalist, the fourth planet of the Alae Republic.

## Biology

The Catalasts resembled giant Earth beetles, who stood on strong and sturdy legs. Their four arms were thin and almost weedy, yet could hold a firm grip, tight enough to keep Time Lords rooted to the spot without being able to move at the very least. Their flat faces were rounded off with a shielded cap upon their heads, from which two straight and long antennae shot out from.

On their backs were wings - only powerful enough to have the Catalast hover slightly off the ground rather than grant full on flight - shielded by rounded shells which shone in the light. (TV: *The Fallen War*)

## History

The Catalasts originally evolved on Catalast, becoming perfectly suited to its windy and stormy climate, building vast underground cities to protect themselves. The Catalasts' first encounter with alien lifeforms was around c.6037 when Comparian scouts arrived on Catalist, unaware of any life. Although there was some tension between the two species, a deal was brokered and Catalist became the third planet to join the Zanra-Arkha Alliance, forcing the government to reorganise itself as the Alae Republic.

By 10,500, the Catalasts had flown beyond Catalist and were present on every planet in the Republic, such as Zanra (TV: *The Fallen War*) and Arkha (TV: *Out of Sight, Out of Mind*) - the same as the other native predominant species of the Republic; more specifically - the Comparians and the Arkhers.
Cut! (TV story)

*"So what's your name?"
"I..er...I'm not sur-...Amy-Mae. Yes, that's it."
"Amy-Mae? Like the famous actress?"
"Haha, yeah, what a funny coincidence..."*
―Rebecca to Amy-Mae as she takes on a new name from a movie poster

***Cut!*** was the third episode of Series 16 of *Doctor Who*. It was the first part of a two-part story, followed by *The Box of Many Tricks*.

This episode was noticable for its effect on Aklur, from here on in, she would now be known as Amy-Mae.

## Synopsis

Rebecca has no chance. In the large world of celebrity popularity, very few make it to the top. But nobody’s perfect. Rebecca is not perfect. At least, that’s what the voice in her head keeps repeating. Continually, non-stop.

Or does it?

No. Just a trick of the mind. She has considered seeking help from a Doctor; but there’d be no point, when she’s already accompanied by somebody who claims to be one...

## Cast

* The Doctor - Dev Patel
* Teddy - Omari Douglas
* Amy-Mae - Mary Elizabeth Winstead
* Rebecca - Chloë Grace Moretz
* The Toymaker - Kyle MacLachlan

## Crew

## Continuity

* The Doctor is still trying to get to Earth, however, Teddy convinces him that he should take a break. (TV: *On Foreign Shores*)
* Aklur believes that due to her new hybrid body, she should no longer keep her Ice Warrior name - and so takes the name Amy-Mae from a poster for called Help, My Husband is a Dalek! hung up on the walls of the film studio. (TV: *Frozen Whimpers*)
* Upon discovering of Rebecca's unorthodox symptoms, the Doctor originally suggests she could be under the influence of the Mara before quickly dismissing the possibility. (TV: *Kinda*, *Snakedance*)

Alzhyr

**Alzhyr** (TV: *The Polymos Invaders*) was the father of the Ice Warrior Aklur and a first-generation colonist of Osekron, a distant Martian colony.

## Biography

By 6570, his partner, Aklur's mother had died, a victim of the Osekri, creatures that roamed the colony at night-time and Aklur herself had contracted a fatal disease which was slowly wasting her away.

He attempted to grow new clone bodies to save her but each one continued to fail and start wasting away as well until the Seventeenth Doctor and Teddy had arrived. Desperate, he requested a DNA sample from Teddy, hoping to build a hybrid body from his Tosan DNA and Aklur's Ice Warrior DNA. It worked and Aklur's mind was transplanted into the new body. However, the procedure had been lengthy and captured the attention of everyone in the colony, meaning the Osekri were able to sneak in, eventually killing him, leaving Aklur an orphan. (TV: *Frozen Whimpers*)

Later, at the Grand Scarlet Hotel, Aklur, now calling herself Amy-Mae, met Alzhyr oncemore via a flashback after direct influence of the Red Cult when she was accidentally affected by their efforts to force déjà vu onto Teddy in an attempt to force any kind of secrets of rebellion from him - being unaware that their government had been brought down. Once they met, Amy-Mae ended up breaking down in front of him, admitting that she felt lost and confused - unsure on what her identity is.

Alzhyr comforted her as she acknowledged that this is what the Doctor and Teddy try to tell her but for some reason, she could accept it. But via an Ice Warrior ritual which Amy-Mae was still able to perform, her father convinced her that she was still part of the family and states that her identity did not have to be specific to one thing and reassures that she was unique and could forge her own path. The flashback soon ended, but not before they managed a proper farewell, something that was disrupted last time. (TV: *Memorial Flashbacks*)

Amy-Mae later reminisced about her father when the TARDIS team had landed on Anathema to Teddy and how he taught her about the Fourth Phobos Legacy. (TV: *The Polymos Invaders*)
BioCleric

The **BioClerics** were robots built by the Datysians after the time lock over Datysia was put in place by the Fourteenth Doctor. As indicated by their name, like the Datysians, the BioClerics were created with a twisted understanding of the universe and its workings, believing devoutly in the Datysian faith of amoral objectivism and everlasting power at whatever cost necessary. They were used to keep the population of Datysia under control during the period the Datysians called the Anointing, where those deemed responsible for allowing the Doctor to destroy the factories, as well as any of their associates (or, in some extreme cases, even their home districts) were deemed to be of "lesser spirit" and became themselves the victims of the Datysians' experiments - turning on each other until the time came for them to escape back into the universe once more.

Once the time lock was broken, the mission of the BioClerics was twofold; to carry out tests with their rudimentary "necrotech" on deceased bodies from planets across time and space, and to compare children of different species in their quest for the "perfect formula" of stem cell and telomere manipulation to unlock the key to immortality, (TV: *The Crimes of Datysia*) after their previous efforts were hindered by the Doctor. (TV: *Harvest Season*)

The Doctor met one such group of BioClerics on the Shetland Islands in 1991, alongside companions Elias Danielsen and Fleur. With the BioClerics causing corpses to be reanimated, the locals grew superstitious, which was only exacerbated when children began to go missing as well. The BioClerics on the islands were soon shut down by the Doctor once she discovered what they were up to. (TV: *Welcome to the Other Side*)

The Doctor later found a chamber of BioClerics, hidden deep within the factories of Datysia, and witnessed them being reprogrammed by the Datysians to fight for them in their war against the Shadow Proclamation. (TV: *The Crimes of Datysia*) BioClerics were used in the sieges that brought an end to Datysia's rule once and for all, and were thought by the Doctor to all have been destroyed in the crossfire between Datysian and Shadow Proclamation forces - an event later known as the Datysian Cataclysm. (TV: *The Heirs of Eternity*)
Creature (Monster Night)

A **creature** landed on Earth in 2028 and stalked the Industrial Centre of London until it was eventually neutralised by the Eighteenth Doctor's UNIT Gang.

## History

Originating from an unknown planet, the creature crash landed in the River Thames near Southend-On-Sea - with Simon Lance speculating that it may have been expelled from its home planet for being a lab experiment going wrong - where it remained, unconscious and floated down to the London Docklands where it woke up and made its way out, killing a man at Poplar Station before being anesthetised by Simon's team and taken away.

Later, when Simon begun to start his plan involving the Desecration Matrix, he planted the creature in London's Industrial Centre and informed UNIT who set off Ruby Barrella, Damien Barrella, Johnathon Danielsen and Alicia Sallow on the job of neutralising it whilst Simon secretly informed biologist Colin Anderson about it in the hopes that he could delay the four just enough to finish off what he was doing.

Stalking the centre and killing a few workers, the creature soon came up attack from both the UNIT Gang and the mercenaries hired by Colin to catch the creature for his research, but managed to avade them all until it eventually managed to corner both Ruby and Damien down a dead-end. However, it was quickly distracted by Colin who tried to shoot it with a traq, which was foiled by the gun jamming then the creature killing him as Ruby and Damien made their escape.

After a final standoff in a warehouse, the creature was finally shot in the head by Alicia and believed dead, but was in actuality had survived, with Simon taking it away once he revealed to the UNIT Gang that he had been the UNIT traitor to be sold to the highest bidder. (TV: *Monster Night*)

The UNIT Gang were later informed after Simon and 001 had been defeated, that the creature had been put down and destroyed to prevent any further incidents. (TV: *Extinction Event*)
Aecalatia

**Aecalatia** was a fake entry for a planet in Gallifreyan databases, retroactively placed by Rassilon to help Yasheia lure the Fourteenth Doctor into a deadly trap, planted at the centre of the known universe.

## History

Secretly hiring the Datysian assassin, Yasheia to kill the Doctor, Rassilon planted whispers of a planet called Aecalatia and sent out false news of its capital city of Groeskiv having gone missing in the time vortex. (TV: *To Serve in Heaven*) The city was in fact an elaborate trap built by Rassilon and placed outside of time itself, populated by androids, which Yasheia pretended to kill as part of the illusion.

However, when the Doctor and her companion Fleur eventually arrived at Groeskiv, travelling through a wormhole at Aecalatia's supposed coordinates, Yasheia failed to kill the Doctor as she was saved by Fleur who died in the Doctor's arms as Yasheia fled. Aecalatia and Groeskiv were then terminated as the androids powered down and the landscape crumbled in fire and ash. (TV: *The City Beyond Time*, *The Woman Beyond Death*)
Cha-Par-No

**Cha-Par-No** was a commander of the Seventeenth Judoon Intertemporal Force - hired by the new Tosan government after the previous had been indisposed by the Seventeenth Doctor and his companion Teddy to track down governmental ministers and agents who had gone rogue after their system fell and escaped the planet.

## Biography

Tracking down Mera Rakhal via her vortex manipulator signal to a town in America, 1874, Cha-Par-No ordered the movement of the entire town to an unnamed planet using a H20 scoop, force field and perception filter to prevent anyone from leaving. Being especially brutal in her methods, Cha-Par-No was relentless in her search, executing any citizen who even slightly got in her way. (TV: *Delusions of Reality*)

Later, at the Grand Scarlet Hotel, Cha-Par-No arrived with the rest of her Force after the Red Cult had been defeated by the Doctor, Teddy and Amy-Mae, arresting Ridani Rakhal, the brother of Mera, and the rest of the Cult, taking them away back to their home planet. (TV: *Memorial Flashbacks*)
Cryptomnesia (TV story)

*"I once met a man who claimed he came up with the concept of Cryptomnesia, but then someone else stole the credit. I didn't have the heart to tell him he was centuries too late."*
―Arthur Cresswell

***Cryptomnesia*** was the sixteenth and penultimate episode of Series 19 of *Doctor Who*.

## Synopsis

The universe is full of many ideas.

Trillions of stories, bustling around in everyone's heads is an entirely unique idea. In everyone's heads but that of Arthur Cresswell. He tries and tries and tries to develop new ideas, amazing stories that dazzle and astonish, that will be told for centuries to come, but for some reason that he can't explain - every idea that he has - is stolen by somebody else.

He's the most brilliant mind in all of existence and yet, always too slow and the only person who believes that it is happening to him is an eccentric young woman and her Doctor who has taken a remarkable interest in his condition. But who is this Doctor and why does he keep that strange blue box in his office?

Arthur doesn't know and if he's quite honest, somebody else will probably have an idea first...

## Cast

* The Doctor - Dev Patel
* Jayanna - Jodie Comer
* Arthur Cresswell - Douglas Henshall

## Crew

* Writer - Cal A. King
* Director - Bryce Dallas Howard

## Continuity

Constance O'Conor

**Constance O'Conor** was a human from Pasadena and a companion of the Sixteenth Doctor.

## Personality

Constance was playful, yet also short-tempered. She was considered to be very talented and usually enjoyed winding her little brother Alec up. In actuality however, she cared for his wellbeing a lot and disliked being told what to do.

## Appearance

Constance resembled a woman of average height in her early-thirties with lightly coloured skin, blue eyes and long, blonde hair. (TV: *A Masterful Reckoning*)
Colonial Verge

The **Colonial Verge** was the name given to the region of space located at around the boundaries of Alliance controlled territory.

## History

The Colonial Verge was home to Drelick's home planet, (TV: *Freshman*) alongside many other planets and satellites. When the Algak begun their attacks on the Alliance, they, at first, focused their efforts on the Colonial Verge, raiding the numerous, remote colonies scattered throughout. This did not go unnoticed by the Alliance, but they merely thought it to be the result of random attacks and sent a task force on the ship *Nebulous*, led by the Twentieth Doctor, Drelick and Penelope, hoping that they could deal with the situation. (TV: *The Eye of the Storm*)

However, when the Algak deployed squadrons of Sontarans, they quickly proved that they meant business and sieged Drelick's home planet. This was all a distraction for the Alliance, so that the Algak could use a singularity bomb to detonate the system’s star, turning it supernova - forcing the Doctor to decide between delaying the evacuation, so that he might save everyone; but increase the risk of them all dying or set off with the few survivors already on the *Nebulous*; ensuring their survival.

Having to escape with the scarse numbers of people safe he had on his ship, the Doctor could only watch as the Algak's bomb ultimately destroyed the planet and they seized control of the entire sector of space. (TV: *Nova*)
Baptiste Abattage

Sir **Baptiste Abattage** was the true identity of famed French prisoner, the Man in the Iron Mask.

## Biography

A member of the French aristocracy in the 17th century, Baptiste Abattage was extraordinarily rich and owned a vast and expensive estate; widely acclaimed for its appearance. He was also a murderer; who enjoyed making his victims dance. If they failed to impress him in the art of dance in any way, he killed them.

He hosted a soiree at his estate to which he invited King Louis XIV, where he carried out more murders in secret, making his victims dance for their lives. However, this soiree was attended by the Fourteenth Doctor and her companion Fleur, who had found tickets onboard the TARDIS and quickly took it upon themselves to investigate the killings. (TV: *Dance Until You're Dead*)

After preventing a number of murders, the duo eventually discovered that Abattage was the villain as he tried to enact revenge on them. As the King arrived with his army, the Doctor distracted Abattage with her own dance before soldiers arrested him.

Once he was finally apprehended, the King was so ashamed of Abattage's actions; who he considered to be a close friend - that he banned all future discussion of the event from thereon, effectively banishing it from history.

Abattage was imprisoned with an iron mask placed over his head to keep his identity a secret, and was moved from prison to prison for decades during the rest of his life. He died in 1703. (TV: *The Indefatigable Mystery of King Louis*)
Christian (Pestilence)

**Christian** was a grave-digger from 1665 England, who was inadvertently intertwined with a Cyberman plot.

## Biography

Investigating recent burials in the area, the Fourteenth Doctor was directed to a graveyard by a priest, where she met Christian currently in the process of creating more graveholes. After making acquaintances, Christian witnessed the Doctor analyse the soil of the grave he had just dug with her sonic - and by tasting it - where she determined that an energy signal was reversing the deterioration of the corpses.

She asked him to help her dig up some of the oldest bodies in the graveyard, which he originally did not want to do, believing it to be immoral; but was eventually convinced once the Doctor explained her friend needed help. Being watched by a Cyberman far in the distance, Christian dug out a coffin, which the Doctor scanned with her sonic. A metal hand then smashed out of the grave and grabbed the Doctor, pulling her down. Christian managed to free the Doctor, but the hand snatched her sonic and crushed it.

The two then tried to escape the graveyard, but were quickly cornered by a Cyber-Warrior, as Cybermen burst out of every grave, which aimed its gun at them after confirming the Doctor's identity. (TV: *Pestilence*)
Bruce

**Bruce** was the "Ship's Cat" that came free with the small space vessel that Xavier, Teddy and Amy-Mae stole to use as transport in pursuit of the kidnapped Doctor.

Bruce was extremely playful and fun-loving, taking a special shine to Xavier who was deemed "in charge of the cat" by Amy-Mae at the start of the journey. When the three companions eventually caught up with the Doctor, Bruce immediately caught and killed Ross the parrot who happened to be nearby. He did not make the journey back, instead opting to remain on Kamdo. (TV: *The Sky Demon Can Wait*)
Cecelia Clemente

**Cecelia Clemente** was a member of the Royal Planetary Service Observatory during the 23rd Century.

## Biography

Cecelia was invited to the Observatory in 2275 in order to attend an event hosted by Sir Edward Loughton where he offered astronomers and various other guests the chance to observe a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; the fabled Devil's Starlight, one of the most stunning spatial anomalies of their time. In reality, the Devil's Starlight was the Mandragora Helix.

After a ship of crew members sent to further analyse the anomaly came back possessed by an unknown power, Cecelia witnessed Edward reveal his true intentions of being in league with the Helix. (TV: *The Devil's Starlight*)

She was then attacked by the possessed crew members who were playing an attempt to increase the Helix's power, but were saved when the Doctor eventually realised that Edward and the Helix were bonded and Fleur then knocked him out. This disconnected the Helix's grip on reality, allowing it to be reduced to ashes by the Doctor's TARDIS. (TV: *The Infernal Helix*)
Arkher

The **Arkhers** were the native species of Arkha, the second planet of the Alae Republic.

## Biology

The Arkhers resembled tall and powerful canines who stood on two legs, with Elias Danielsen considering their closest equivalent to be that of a werewolf from Earth's mythology. They were covered with dense fur which was specialised at keeping the individual cool, considering Arkha's proximity to the Alae-1700 star and relevantly high temperatures. Their fur could be coloured any one of a wide selection of possiblities; grey, white, blonde, light and dark brown, black, ginger or a murky, dark green. (TV: *The Fallen War*)

## History

The Arkhers originally evolved on Arkha and eventually grew to be the first species in the system to be able to develop spaceships which would take them off planet. Travelling to neighbour Zanra, the Arkhers soon noticed what had been going on there; a massive civil war - and offered their help to the Comparians, meaning that in the second year of the war, the Arkhers officially joined and helped secure a Comparian victory. Zanra and Arkha later formed the Zanra-Arkha Alliance after much debate amongst the population, decided by a referendum, with 67% of Comparians and 71% of Arkhers agreeing to reunite.

After Comparian scouts arrived on Catalist c.6037 and met the Catalasts, a deal was brokered and Catalist became the third planet to join the Zanra-Arkha Alliance, forcing the government to reorganise itself as the Alae Republic.

By 10,500, the Arkhers had flown beyond Arkha and were present on every planet in the Republic, such as Zanra and Catalist (TV: *The Fallen War*) - the same as the other native predominant species of the Republic; more specifically - the Comparians and the Catalasts.
Cobalt

**Cobalt** was a cold, tundra planet which was one of the final habitats of the Cobalt Empire.

## History

The Cobalt Empire thrived and ruled over many worlds, until an unknown disaster meant that the Cobalt were pushed back to only living on Cobalt. (TV: *The Cobalt Empire*) Later, a geological survey team led by Ferris Terra arrived on Cobalt, where they'd planned to learn more about the history of the planet and analyse its unique properties. It was hoped that Cobalt might potentially become an Earth colony sometime in the future, due to Earth's surface having been ruined by solar flares and humanity forced to spread across the cosmos.

They were later joined by the Fifteenth Doctor and Emi who labelled themselves as a health and safety team who'd been instructed to be apart of their mission. Terra selected half of his crew to head down into the tunnels, shortly before an accident which had resulted in them being separated from the crew on the surface; being forced to find another exit or wait until the rubble had been cleared by one of the service droids. (TV: *Final Expedition*)

One by one, the crew members fell victim to the Cobalt after tampering with the crystalline forms, resulting in the gaseous creatures infecting their minds and subsequently boiling them. Once Heidi Jackson was used as a host in order to verbally communicate with the survey team which were stuck down there with them, the Cobalt threatened to wipe out the entirety of the team if they didn't leave their world; a threat which the Doctor took seriously, demanding that Terra packed up and left as soon as everybody was rescued.

Once the service droids had cleared out the rubble and the team were freed, the Cobalt followed in their pursuit after learning Terra refused to leave their world in peace. Without a means to stop them, the Doctor offered the remaining crew who'd since been relieved of the Cobalt's influence, a momentary place onboard her TARDIS to deliver them back to safety. She left Terra behind, leaving him to the Cobalt. (TV: *The Cobalt Empire*)

Fleur and Elias have been captured. With Elias's condition deteriorating, the Doctor is given an ultimatum: the lives of her friends or the lives of the innocent. Whichever she chooses, blood will be on her hands.

Worst of all, in the darkest hours of the night, the dead are reborn as Cybermen, and the Doctor doesn't know what she can do.

## Story Notes

* A working title for this episode was *Amelioration of the Cybermen*.
* The first draft for the story also included the Meddler, who would've been portrayed by Colin Morgan as the Meddler's second incarnation, following Peter Butterworth's incarnation. He would've hidden his true identity from the Doctor until the end of *Pestilence*, then aided the Cybermen in their quest to convert the population, as part of his larger plan to disrupt time. However, he was eventually removed from the story as King found that they no longer wanted him in the story.
	+ Elements of his presence still exist in the final version in the form of Christian, with that character more or less taking on the Meddler's old role within *Pestilence* - even using the name the Meddler used as part of his disguise.

Connor McMillan

**Connor McMillan** was a human who was caught up in the Juvenile's scheme to obtain more regeneration energy.

## Biography

Whilst living his normal day-to-day life, Connor was teleported off Earth and onto a random planet, where he met the Fourteenth Doctor, Bril, Frye Fly Fillif, Dpondore and Almandoe. Whilst exploring the temple, Connor and the others came to understand that a Time Lord who called himself the Juvenile had kidnapped them, searching for more Time Lords to steal regeneration energy from. His methods reacted differently on non-Time Lords, instead causing hallucinations of deceased people they knew before dying themselves.

Connor eventually fell victim to the Juvenile’s scheme and was killed after hallucinating a lost lover. (TV: *Temple of Fear*)
Calling of the Void (TV story)

***Calling of the Void*** was the first episode of Series 23 of *Doctor Who*.

The first story to be produced for the Nineteenth Doctor's era of the show, this episode was a rarity for the fan series in that it did not also introduce companions alongside the new Doctor. The only other instance of this occurring was with *What Comes After* during Series 7, which kickstarted the Fifteenth Doctor's era.

## Synopsis

Finally free of the Daleks’ control; you would think that life for the Doctor could go back to some sense of normality, but only moments after regenerating, time started to collapse all around her and now she finds herself falling through the vortex itself alongside her companion, Alexis. With no idea of where they could end up and only one another to rely on, they soon realise that they are not as alone as they first thought - as a voice is calling out to them, enticing them to find it.

As they come crashing through the vortex into modern-day Earth, they realise that whatever was calling to them has followed them through and now seems intent on murdering people in increasingly brutal ways. Luckily, the Doctor's history with UNIT means back-up is only a call away. With the ever-reliable Kate Stewart, Johnathan Danielsen and Alicia Sallow by their side, the hunt is on.

Meanwhile, Orla and Tamara find themselves stuck in a TARDIS that is rapidly losing control; being flung up and down the time stream at a moment's notice and with the Doctor currently AWOL, it’s up to the two of them to stabilise the time ship... but as they begin to realise that they are not as alone as they first thought - as a voice is calling out to them, enticing them to find it.

The two teams must find a way back to each other, whilst resisting the urge to discover who or what is behind the voice tempting them - but the answer is something that will freeze both of the Doctor's hearts to the core and a past she would have rather forgotten seems intent on bringing itself back to life, with consequences that will change her life... forever.

Fourth Phobos Legacy

The **Fourth Phobos Legacy** was a Martian tale dating back to the very origins of Martian culture.

The story followed a trio of Ice Warriors who left the safety of the vast hives on Mars in order to colonise further worlds, or in this case one of their moons - Phobos. It had looked idyllic, and perfect for their requirements. From the moment they'd arrived, they knew that the Ice Warriors would soon rise in number through the thousands of new hives in which they would construct. Except, like in all tales, there was a twist. Unbeknownst to the fearless trio known as Jelxar, Prisyx and Ilcys, this moon had bestowed upon it a legendary creature hidden in the heart of it. An undisturbed entity of godly proportions, only spoken through previous legends across Mars. Its name was unknown, and so Jelxar proposed the title 'The Son of Phobos'.

Shortly after, they fought a agonisingly powerful battle against the creature; barely scraping victory as it cowered, shrivelled and perished - or, by some accounts, fled to terrorise a new world. Free to create a new ground for the Ice Warrior civilisation, the trio marked down a historic moment in their history and were gifted the label of 'The Fourth Phobos Legacy'. For their commitment, loyalty and bravery.

It was rarely ever spoken of due to its sacred history, with only those of high ranking authority being able to recite the story. If an individual who was unauthorised spoke of the story, it would be deemed as sacrilege and subsequently met with a swift execution. There were very few members of the Phobos Legacy, which made the story even more fascinating and meant that whoever was blessed enough to learn it were very privileged.

After arriving on Anathema for a momentary break, Amy-Mae had recited the story to her friend Teddy. (TV: *The Polymos Invaders*)

De plus, il se sent d'autant plus mal que Miki a révélé devant toute sa classe et ses nouveaux amis tout en niant toute implication qu'il avait harcelé la jeune fille qu'ils connaissent.

## Synopsis

France, 1669. Via exclusive invitation, the Doctor, now under the alias of Mademoiselle Smith, has arrived at a secluded estate in the countryside in order to attend a soirée with her dashing young accomplice Fleur. She’s not here wholly to enjoy herself though.

There is decades worth of French history that has gone primarily untouched by the Doctor, and she’s eager to fill in a few gaps in her knowledge, starting with an evening of excitement and relaxation at the estate.

However, as the night falls, the two travellers quickly find themselves entangled in a conflict with a sinister outcome, and not everyone will make it out with their lives.

Jacob Astor

**John Jacob Astor IV** was an American business magnate, real estate developer, investor, writer, lieutenant colonel in the Spanish–American War, and a prominent member of the Astor family. He died in the sinking of the RMS Titanic during the early hours of April 15, 1912. Astor was the richest passenger aboard the RMS Titanic and was thought to be among the richest people in the world at that time, with a net worth of roughly $87 million when he died.

## Biography

Jacob Astor was one of 2,224 people onboard the *Titanic*, alongside with his wife Madeleine as she had fallen pregnant whilst they were travelling and they wanted the birth to take place back in the US. Accompanying the Astors were Jacob's valet, Victor Robbins; Madeleine's maid, Rosalie Bidois; and her nurse, Caroline Louise Endres.

Whilst he was onboard, the first known and documented appearance of the Infinity manifested on the ship and soon became regarded by many to be the most expensive item on the ship - worth more than the *Titanic* itself - and as such was used as a status symbol, albeit with nobody knowing its real use.

Jacob got his hands on the Infinity first by finding it on a cabinet in his room, but such was its status, a form of quasi-conflict was triggered between him, Isidor Straus and Benjamin Guggenheim - as they fought between each other to obtain possession over the object. This resulted in the three constantly having their servants steal and hide it from the others; which made the job of Ruby and Damien Barrella who needed to remove it from the ship altogether much more difficult. (TV: Unsinkable*)*

The *Titanic* inevitably hit the iceberg, but this was not immediately made aware to Jacob and co - and when he did find out, he was not entirely concerned. Nevertheless, he eventually abandoned the conflict and helped Madeleine into Lifeboat 4, yet was not allowed on himself. The Infinity was subsequently left on the ship.

He died as the ship sank; survived by Madeleine, Rosalie and Caroline.
(TV: *A Monument and a Warning*)
