CW: Song of Death

Shenma Vortichus Sendaris was an Ardoni from Ardonia, a member of the Sendaris clan.

He was possessed by Omega - an ancient Time Lord who gave the Time Lords time travel - after his death.

## History

Shenma was the oldest of the generation of Sendaris that fought against the Voltaris. He was second (technically third) in command after Thalleous (and Omega).

He helped in the construction of the "Warsong" a device made by Omega which, unknown by any of the Sendaris clan, would turn Ardonia into anti-matter - recreating Omega's dimension.

He was killed after the Warsong was made to overload by the Doctor and Turlough, however, he was taken over by Omega. (DW: Warsong)

### Jonathan Crisis

After Thalleous' death he became the leader of the Sendaris clan, although he had to disguise this by making it look like Thalleous was still the leader. He ordered the deaths of Ankarstian and "his companions" (The Resistance) and came to Fort Zuka to make sure it was carried out.

The siege of Fort Zuka was short-lived, however, as one Resistance member (Axel) was able to work out that firing anti-matter would force Omega to leave Shenma's body. This was done by Ankarstian and Poseidon - with Omega being captured by Axel in an anti-matter container

### Category War

Due to Shenma being dead before Omega possessed his body Shenma's body started to rot - however, this took 20 years to start. Due to this, Omega realised that he would soon need a new body and created a "body-weave" with which he could create a new body. This body-weave was later used to house Thalleous' spirit in a new body in the event of his death - which happened ~30 years later, after he was killed by Tygren Voltaris around the beginning of the Battle for Ardonia. Thalleous' mindprint was uploaded into his new body shortly afterwards, however, this was hidden from the Resistance by Omega.

Soon afterwards Omega decided to transfer his mindprint from Shenma's body to his new body, however, he couldn't do this without alerting the Resistance. This led to him release Thalleous' body from statis so that he could transfer his body while the Resistance were distracted by Thalleous Sendaris' return to life. However, this failed after they realised that Thalleous could only have been returned to life by extremely advanced technology and started to look for it. Thalleous and Omega were then told by an informant that one of the members of the Resistance - Ankarstian - was a Time Lord. Due to Thalleous making a law that executed all Time Lords and their companions this meant that Thalleous could execute the Resistance, making sure that Omega could transfer his body and make the Sendaris clan and all of their allies into an army with which he could take over Gallifrey.

Shenma/Omega went with a small army of Ardoni (50 Ardoni) to bring all of the members of the Resistance out of Fort Zuka and execute them - with Shenma even managing to get into the fort, however, only one member of the Resistance (an unnamed soldier) was executed due to the Resistance managing to get one of Shenma's guards to fire on Shenma's body. However, instead of destroying Omega this led to Omega fleeing from Shenma's body and into his new body. This also had the effect of Shenma's army fleeing. (CW: Song of Death)
