Last Great Time War

The Daleks bombarding Gallifrey

The final moments of Gallifrey

The **Last Great Time War**, also known as the ***Pa-Jass Vortan*** in Dalek or "**The War to End All Wars**", was the temporal war fought between the Time Lords and the Daleks "for the sake of all creation". In a linear sense, it lasted for at least 400 years. Fought throughout countless time periods, alternate timelines and even parallel universes, however, it more accurately lasted an eternity as both sides fought across space and time, opening up new fronts as the Daleks seeded themselves in different epochs.

At the heart of the War, millions were killed and brought back to life every second, on account of both sides' manipulations. The colossal death toll made the Doctor's TARDIS remember the Time War as "**a war against Death**". In the final battle alone, the Daleks numbered in the quintillions and fielded a fleet of ten million flying saucers. The Time Lords used over a million Battle TARDISes.

By the end of the War, the Daleks had pushed the Time Lords back to their homeworld of Gallifrey and launched a full-scale assault on the planet. Ultimately, the Time War resulted in the apparent destruction of Gallifrey and ruination of Skaro, seemingly leaving only several Time Lords and a small number of Daleks as survivors.

## Beginning of the Time War

### Fighting breaks out

The rivalry between the Time Lords and the Daleks, regarded as the two most powerful species in N-Space, hit its boiling point after the extermination or near-extermination of such allied Temporal Powers as the Monans, the Sunari and the Nekkistani. After the Daleks committed these massacres, the Time Lords prepared to formalise hostilities against the Dalek Empire.

The savage and endless conflict fought between the Time Lords and Daleks was eventually dubbed the Last Great Time War. It was the most all-consuming and brutal conflict ever inflicted upon the multiverse. Due to its nature as a temporal war, it was nearly impossible for post-Time War individuals to deduce its proper and logical chronology. As much of history was overwritten, with the opposing factions each undoing the actions of the other again and again, it was hard to figure out what had even happened, at least within the terms of the post-war timeline. Additionally, much of the Time War's history would become shrouded in mystery, inaccessible, and time locked.

In the first days of the war, Zygor, the homeworld of the Zygons, was destroyed. A historical account of the universe later stated Zygor was destroyed during a time when the war had "intensified even further". During the Time War, the surviving Zygons became adept at making structures which couldn't be breached by TARDISes.

Also, in the first days of the war, the homeworld of the War Lords, was brought in to this era by Vokren, a Sontaran who had intercepted the dematerialisation process from the War Lord's trial. Because of this, the War Lord made Vokren chief scientific advisor for the War Lords during the war.

The Time War escalated, as the first battles saw the Time Lords flotillas combat the large fleets of the invading Dalek flying saucers. The Time Lords turned away from governing established history and protecting the Web of Time, and instead threw all their resources into battling the Daleks and their allies.

The war quickly boiled out of control, as it raged throughout the universe and beyond, destroyed entire epochs of time, and caused collateral damage to whole species. Eve's peace loving species was caught up in the middle of the war and was exterminated due to their to their ability to read timelines. Threatening every moment of the time continuum, the war did not only spread across space, but forwards and backwards through time, and new temporal fronts opened as the Daleks seeded themselves into different eras.

### Early losses

Irving Braxiatel along with Ace went to the Obscura to find information about a weapon there. This was a ruse from Braxiatel to use the power held in the Obscura and old soldier Danna to destroy a Dalek fleet. When this didn't succeed, Braxiatel killed Danna and wiped Ace's mind of all knowledge of the war. Ace was left on 20th century Earth, cast out of the Time War to live a normal life and eventually found A Charitable Earth. Ace later had contact with Time Lords from before the Time War.

### Return of the War Lords

All thirty-five thousand soldiers of the 3rd Gallifreyan Infantry were decimated by the clone troopers of the 1st War Lord Battle Fleet during the Battle of Kalador. A message was sent to the High Council that the War Lords have returned and have now taken part in the war.

## Participants
