Karn

**Karn** was a barren planet in the Mutter's Spiral galaxy that was once a colony planet of Gallifrey. It was later the home of the powerful Sisterhood of Karn.

## Characteristics

Though once flourishing, Karn was later reduced to a wasteland of ruins. It was partially rebuilt by the Time Lords' colonisation, but eventually became a burned-out and exhausted planet, a barren and rocky wasteland with many ruins and abandoned industrial plantations.

It was littered with the wreckage of crashed spaceships from many worlds, brought down by the Sisterhood's telekinetic powers out of fear of theft of the Elixir of Life. (TV: *Birthright of the Klucuin*)

## History

As the Klucuin converged on the Capitol on Gallifrey, the Fourteenth Doctor and Elias Danielsen, along with CIA Coordinator Keltar, travelled to Karn where they found Ohila and enlisted her help in using ancient magic of which the Sisterhood specialised in; which they believed could help against the Klucuin who were well versed in elemental magic themselves. It was thought that this could push back and contain the Klucuin.

However, they found their efforts to be futile and once the Klucuin managed to implant the Shevek Cro'taq into the Eye of Harmony at the Temple of Atropos, the Elemental Universe was born. (TV: *Birthright of the Klucuin*)
Garizan Cluster

The **Garizan Cluster** was a sector of space home to many planets which had been devastated by the Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War.

## History

During the Civil War, the Kepler operated deep within the Garizan Cluster, collecting the sick, wounded and dead - with the help of Nyssa of Traken. Accidentally getting himself trapped within the bowels of the ship as he bordered it to flee the war, Davros would be stuck for many years, before he eventually met the Sixteenth Doctor, Alec and Constance O'Conor just after the Doctor's reunion with Nyssa. It wasn't long after until the Kepler was attacked by a fleet of Renegade Daleks who had located Davros. (TV: *An Unlikely Stowaway*)

Although Davros originally refused to explain to the Doctor what the fleet's purpose truly was, he later admitted that they were equipped with new weapons that could kill more people and faster than Dalek weaponry had previously allowed. Davros's Imperials fought against the Renegades who attempted to gain control of the ship, but both sides were destroyed by the Doctor and her companions. (TV: *The Fall of the Kepler*)
Iriel

**Irielastarotalica** (or **Iriel** for short) was a Gallifreyan soldier and a companion of the Sixteenth Doctor.

## Personality

Iriel was a born commander, first meeting the Doctor in an ordeal with the gargantuan arachnid species known as the Racnoss. During her first few adventures alongside the Doctor, she was unnecessarily brutal and heartless because that was the behaviour which she deemed acceptable. As their adventures together went by, she learned otherwise; to become kindhearted and savour the divine meaning of life.

## Appearance

Iriel resembled a woman of average height in her fifties (in human terms), with lightly coloured skin, brown eyes and long brown hair. (TV: *In Flux*)
Jayanna VII

## Incarnations of Jayanna

With a new ease on life after the Time War ended, **Jayanna VII** set off into the universe in search for adventure.

## Biography

Sometime after regenerating into a new incarnation following the end of the Time War, Jayanna eventually found herself on the planet Alkos, exploring in search for an adventure when she came across a future incarnation who was travelling alongside the Seventeenth Doctor, who claimed that they arrived following a distress signal that Jayanna VII had sent. Despite not knowing what either one of them were talking about, the trio stuck together as they visited a carnival and came across a miniscope presented by Victor Nolan. However, at that point, energy struck the miniscope, causing "an infinitesimal moment of vulnerability" and allowed a Raston Warrior Robot to escape.

Following the Raston Warrior Robot's massacre of the Alkosians, the Doctor and Jayannas begun to investigate exactly what led to the Raston Warrior Robot to escape and why it was now deciding to team with Victor, as well as helping the Alkosians who had lost loved ones. The Raston Warrior Robot - now being sentient - planned to gather energy from the strikes that granted it sentience to power a spaceship and escape, but was destroyed when the Doctor drove a vehicle into its ship, but managed to fatally shoot Jayanna VII just after she sent the message that the Doctor and Jayanna IX received earlier, before finally dying, triggering a regeneration into a new body, returning to her TARDIS to do so. (TV: *I Predict a Riot*)

## Personality

Jayanna VII was adventurous, cheerful and acted first, thought later, often taking huge risks without thinking it through first.

## Appearance

This incarnation of Jayanna resembled a woman of average height in her forties, possessing lightly coloured skin, green eyes and long ginger hair.

#### Clothing

This incarnation tended to wear a beige-brown leather jacket with a white shirt and jeans. (TV: *I Predict a Riot*)
Desecration Matrix

The **Desecration Matrix** was the machine designed by 001 that when activated, would unleash the Ressurinos Virus, (TV: *Sunken Treasure*) which would wipe out all life on Earth, causing a planet-wide genocide. The Matrix was built up of numerous components taken from the Doctor's adventures since he took on Ruby and Damien Barrella as companions.

After Ruby, Damien, Johnathon and Alicia had been captured by Simon Lance, (TV: *Monster Night*) they were soon joined in captivity by the Eighteenth Doctor who had returned to Earth. The Doctor, Ruby and Damien were forced to build the Matrix by 001 who kept his identity secret and spoke to them over their cell's intercom. Once work had been completed, 001 revealed himself as a clone of the Doctor - (TV: *001*) and split the trio up, placing Ruby within a room with the Matrix as it begun to power up, meaning she would be the first to die after it activated.

However, 001's plan begun to fall apart after Simon freed Johnathon and Alicia, the latter of whom went to free the Doctor and Damien. Damien destroyed the Matrix control panel after 001 taunted him, the Doctor and Alicia with the image of Ruby trapped with the Matrix. Alicia killed 001 with a single bullet, but the Matrix was still active, having become impossible to shut down.

The Doctor managed to make the effective range shorter, being able to seal the explosion to just the room, but with remote control not possible, the Doctor convinced the others that he should be the one to sacrifice himself. it was that moment that he was hit by a tranquiliser by Simon, wanting to redeem himself and do something good after working with 001. After the others left the room, the doors sealed and Simon was killed as the Matrix self-destructed, the room flooding with gas. (TV: *Extinction Event*)
Baba Yaga

**Baba Yaga** was a member of a shape-shifting species known as the Trinnock which would land on alien planets and then change their form based on local folklore.

## History

Baba Yaga landed on Earth during prehistoric times, but the resulting impact rendered her dormant - it wasn't until the child of a lumberjack running scared through the forest at night gave the dormant Baba Yaga enough psychic energy to feed off, so that she could finally awaken from her slumber. Once she had awoken, she proceeded to devour the child and began her spree of kidnappings, feasting on the fear that it caused the parents of the many children she took, eventually allowing her to take the form of the Baba Yaga described in stories.

Upon the arrival of the Eighteenth Doctor, Ruby and Damien, Baba Yaga began to speed up the rates of her kidnappings, recognising that the three were not from the native time period and posed a threat to her reign of terror.

When the Doctor and his friends attempted to set a trap to outsmart her; Baba Yaga, already three steps ahead, used the opportunity to steal Damien away and began to feast on him and his fears,
with his adventures with the Doctor making him a feast for her. Damien then realised that Baba Yaga was preparing for the Witching Hour, where she planned to use the accumulated fear to "ring the dinner bell" for more Trinnock to come and feast on Earth.

Baba Yaga was finally defeated when the Doctor was able to poison the fears that she feasted on, using his telepathic abilities to do so. She died before she was able to summon her brethren. (TV: *The Witching Hour*)
Gabinus

**Gabinus** was the "mad old man", who was claimed to sit on the road all day by a stall worker.

The same worker told Elias and Fleur to talk to Gabinus about their queries over Charlemagne and recent suspicious activities - who told them he saw a flash of white light in the public gardens; later realised by the two to have been Tomas using his vortex manipulator. (TV: *History Misaligned*)
Jayanna V

## Incarnations of Jayanna

**Jayanna V** was the first incarnation to meet the Doctor, setting in motion both of their futures.

## Biography

Shortly after regenerating, Jayanna met the Fifth Doctor whilst at the Grand Scarlet Hotel. Together, they discussed their histories about being a Time Lord renegade and why they had made such choices; before fighting space pirates who had been the ones who shot down Jayanna's TARDIS and caused her to regenerate in the first place. (TV: *Lies of Heaven*, AUDIO: *The Grand Scarlet Hotel*)

When the Time War started, it was this incarnation who ultimately got caught up in the fighting - but after being placed in charge of a squadron by Rassilon, she was killed by sacrificing herself to destroy a Dalek clone factory and regenerated into a war-capable incarnation. (AUDIO: *The Grand Scarlet Hotel*)

## Personality

Bashful, cheeky and fast; Jayanna V possessed loads of energy and found it easy to make friends. She had a tendency to clown around more, but always knew when to dial it back.

## Appearance

This incarnation of Jayanna resembled a tall woman in her fifties, possessing lightly coloured skin, brown eyes and long brown hair.
Alexis Frye

**Alexis Frye** was a computer genius human companion of the Eighteenth and Nineteenth Doctors.

## Personality

Alexis was a relaxed and contemplative person, far more likely to take her time before making a move than the other. They were compassionate and completely unable to ignore someone who may need their help, regardless of if they wouldn’t offer them the same courtesy, should the tables be reversed. A truly selfless individual, there was no task that Alexis would consider too great in pursuit of the greater good. Always the first to crack a joke inside of a tough situation, but when push comes to shove, Alexis was both capable and reliable.

Alexis developed feelings towards Tamara over their time spent with one another and was able to soothe Tamara when she got worked up, however, despite the attraction, Alexis was unable to confess how she felt out of a fear of being rejected after a lifetime of misreading signals and getting things wrong.
Bailu

The **Bailu** were massive creatures created by the Tosan Government, designed to roam the night and keep law and order.

## History

Once the government had won the civil war that ravaged the planet, they decided that they needed a way to install fear into its civilians, leading to the creation of the Bailu. Mass experimentation over the years led to the perfect monster - over 150 feet tall, skin that glowed in the dark and a terrifying roar. Artificial fog was produced to add to the Bailu mythos, used to keep the true form of the Bailu hidden and always unknown, adding to their fear factor. Doors were constructed into the mountain sides near the cities that led into the Bailu containment zones, where the Bailu would come and go - as each one was installed with a chip that meant they could be controlled as to where they roamed.

But the Bailu weren't just for show; they actively killed any Tosan roaming the streets after sunset - sparing only just a few, but having ripped out their tongues in the process and injecting a chemical - to ensure the people could spread the word about what they had seen. The Bailu project was extremely effective at turning the population submissive and the government continued to reign.

Waking up on a Tosan beach, the newly-regenerated Seventeenth Doctor would come across a Bailu for the first time as it stalked the city and after roaming the empty streets of the city at night, he was pulled inside by Teddy into his apartment in order to protect him - where he opened the curtains at the sound of giant footsteps and was met with the face of a Bailu.

The Bailu project ultimately came to an end when a rebel group overthrew the government with the Doctor and Teddy's assistance, who were now strong enough to fight back against the Bailu and stormed the Main Hall - with Teddy finding the recall signal for the Bailu, leading them into the ocean and permanently away from civilisation. (TV: *On Foreign Shores*)

Helen Sinclair

## Helen

**Helen Sinclair** was a companion of the Eighth Doctor.

## Biography

During December 2020, Liv and Helen went Christmas shopping alongside the Doctor, Helen showing Liv around Camden Town so as to make sure that she didn't become lost. After becoming separated in a crowd, Liv and Helen stopped off in various clothing shops, purchasing a new leather jacket for the Doctor. They then sat down in a coffee shop, until making their way back to the flat only to find the Doctor on the stairway hunting for a stray cat.

Over the course of a few days, they'd noticed something odd about him yet didn't seem to approach him about it until on Christmas Day when he'd mysteriously vanished; the only trace of him left being a peculiar graphic novel left on his bed. Opening it, the two of them were pulled into the storybook and forced to defend themselves in an apparently all-new universe, reuniting with the Doctor - or rather, two versions of the Doctor - and facing against a ferocious multi-dimensional species known as the Zenloc. (TV: *The Imagination Eradication*)

## Personality

Helen was intelligent, sceptical and willing to admit when she was wrong. She was compassionate, which could sometimes allow her to be manipulated, and trusting, to the extent that she did not tell Liv or the Doctor about River Song's identity. She was sensible, except when running from the law.

She felt that society had never allowed her to be the best that she could be and was pleased that her strengths were celebrated rather than feared whilst travelling with the Doctor. She wanted to be successful to spite her father. She sometimes felt redundant next to the Doctor and Liv, but Liv assured her that she had more than proved herself.

When one such person, the Krillitane called Fleur, escaped, she left behind one friend - a Nostrovite known simply as Abijah.

Eventually, after managing to get free, he settled on the swamp jungle planet of Hario with other members of his species - the planet in which the Puppeteer now toils away in one recently flooded town, making the residents his slaves by turning their brains into string.

Eighteenth Doctor's regeneration

## Result

The Eighteenth Doctor becomes the Nineteenth Doctor

*"Okay then, Doctor. Let's get to it. So much more to do..."*
―The Eighteenth Doctor's last words

## The Doctor's regenerations

After a final battle against the Daleks, the Eighteenth Doctor underwent his **regeneration** into the Nineteenth Doctor whilst surrounded by his friends.

## History

### Anticipation

The Eighteenth Doctor was once shown his future by the Malicron and how he would die, but he always believed that he might be able to cheat it. (TV: *Changing of the Guard*)

In an alternate timeline, the Doctor regenerated into the "Other" Doctor following a disastrous raid on the Eye of Sontar, but this was ultimately reversed and the "Other" Doctor was prevented from every existing in the first place. (TV: *The Eye of Sontar*)

### Causes

After the Daleks managed to bring about considerable destruction to the universe using a fracture in time, the Doctor returned to Earth alongside his companions Orla Adair, Tamara Kendall and Alexis Frye to find it had become a wasteland. Orla, Tamara and Alexis were all eventually exterminated by the Daleks and the Doctor was taken to Skaro. (TV: *The Operation of Time: Part One*)

However, he soon took a chance to escape and after allying himself with some of the few remaining survivors of the universe, used his own life force to overload the fracture. This snapped history back into place and the Doctor woke up to find himself back on Earth just before it all started. He walked back to the TARDIS, but collapsed before he could enter and was helped inside by his companions.

Realising that the change was about to come, he reassured the trio that everything would be OK and asking them to take care of the next Doctor, before letting go and regenerating into his nineteenth incarnation. (TV: *The Operation of Time: Part Two*)

### Aftermath

After the Doctor examined her new face, the moment was interrupted by the TARDIS violently shaking. She opened the main doors to witness the Time Vortex beginning to flake away, before one final jerk caused both the Doctor and Alexis to fall out of the time machine into the vortex. (TV: *The Operation of Time: Part Two*)
Ferris Terra

**Ferris Terra** was a scientist who led a geological survey team at Cobalt in order to study its unique properties.

## Biography

When Terra and co arrived on Cobalt, he didn't realise that it was the last remaining world on which the Cobalt Empire ruled and thrived on - and thus during the survey, where it was planned to learn more about the history of the planet and analyse its unique properties; he, among others, failed to realise that they were on a planet where their very presence was unwelcome.

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

After a member called Heidi Jackson was instead used as a host by the Cobalt entities in order to verbally communicate with the survey team, the humans were threatened with being wiped out 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. Terra, however, did not listen to the Doctor and stubbornly chose to stay put.

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 a momentary place aboard her TARDIS to deliver them back to safety. She left Terra behind, leaving him to the mercy of the Cobalt. (TV: *The Cobalt Empire*)
Kate Stewart

**Kate Stewart** was the Head of Scientific Research for UNIT and known associate of the Fourteenth and Eighteenth Doctors.

## Biography

After UNIT's deactivation, Kate called on the Fourteenth Doctor and her companions Elias Danielsen and Fleur, after Morgaine had escaped her prison and begun terrorising Carbury on Christmas Day 2019, with legions of soldiers to raze it to the ground. The Doctor managed to defeat Morgaine, but meeting Kate and witnessing the Doctor's past with UNIT led to Elias leaving the TARDIS. (TV: *Morgaine's Revenge*)

By 2025 - two years after UNIT's reinstatement, Kate was summoned to an incident on the Yorkshire Moors by British Police where she found a newly regenerated and severely amnesiac Eighteenth Doctor who had crash landed following his violent regeneration. (TV: *Monsters and Legends*) Helping the Doctor settle on Earth after discovering that his TARDIS no longer functioned, Kate - alongside Osgood and the Doctor - pled their case to the Supreme Court and defended UNIT's future as an organisation, ready to defend Earth from alien threats once more. (TV: *UNIT in Operation*)

Meeting the Doctor's new companion Ruby Barrella in 2027, Kate helped the Doctor and Ruby fight the Rutan Host who planned to rework the DNA of every human on Earth, (TV: *Monsters and Legends*) accompanied the Doctor's UNIT Gang to Ecuador following the Tzurin Collective's numerous robberies of a technological trade market (TV: *Deception*) and witnessed John Benton's passing.

Edward Loughton

"Sir **Edward Loughton**" was an Eternal who made a deal with the Mandragora Helix in order to help set it free from its prison within the Time Vortex.

## Biography

Coming into existence as an Eternal, the being who would later take on the name "Sir Edward Loughton", became the Eternal that represented astronomy and space, gaining star shaped pupils which he grew able to hide over time.

Wandering through the depths of space, "Edward" came across the Mandragora Helix, currently trying to actualise itself into N-Space from the Time Vortex. Realising the potential of what he had discovered, "Edward" made a deal with the Helix, becoming psychologically bonded to the force as he tried to help free it from the Time Vortex. Secretly, he recognised that he was able to claim the Helix's power for himself, however, he decided to wait until it had grown powerful enough before he made his move. (TV: *The Infernal Helix*)

Infiltrating himself into human society as Sir Edward Loughton, he made himself well known enough as to be able to conduct a formal gathering onboard the Royal Planetary Service Observatory, 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.

The Observatory was in such a position, that it allowed for a direct beam of Edward's own eternal life force to tear open and free the Helix, allowing it to possess the entire crew of a small ship that had been set to further analyse the anomaly. Once the ship arrived back at the Observatory, Edward finally revealed his true intentions to the Fourteenth Doctor, alongside her companions Elias and Fleur, who had arrived on the Observatory coming from Peladon and started investigating odd occurrences that they had noticed, flanked by the possessed crew members. (TV: *The Devil's Starlight*)

As the possessed crew members began attacking the guests in an attempt to increase the Helix's power, Edward got closer and closer to his end goal, hoping to soon betray the Helix and claim its power for himself. However, the Doctor eventually realised that Edward and the Helix were bonded - getting Fleur to knock him out, losing the Helix's grip on reality. As the Helix was reduced to ashes by the Doctor's TARDIS, Edward made his escape, hiding away again in the shadows. (TV: *The Infernal Helix*)
Georg Baresch

**Georg Baresch** was a Bohemian antique collector and alchemist from Prague known for his connection to the Voynich manuscript.

After many years following its creation, the Voynich manuscript ended up in Baresch's library, who had no idea how it got there. He wrote to a scholar, Athanasius Kircher from the Collegio Romano in Rome in 1639, who wanted the book for himself but Baresch refused.

It was when the manuscript was under the possession of Baresch that it was stolen by the Wells Master, who used her army of Svari as a distraction for the Fourteenth Doctor and Sandra Parry. It was later returned by the Doctor, after she obtained it for herself from the Master and used it to meet Ercole di Albrisis, but once Baresch died, the Manuscript was passed onto the rector of the university in Prague. (TV: *My Dear Master*)

## History

This action was taken without Malda nor Lieutenant Commander Vesta ever knowing. It was on this station that a number of inmates planned to escape by stealing a vessel and self-destructing the station. Using this as a distraction, they would proceed to infiltrate a second prison station in order to free more of their people and so on - a plan being aided by the Sixteenth Doctor, Violet and Leo.

However, as during the prisoners began their rebellion, the First Prisoner, who had infiltrated the group, activated the station's self-destruct themselves prematurely, meaning that there was no possible way for the prisoners to escape in time and cause further chaos. All the Drahvins and prisoners then died in the resulting explosion. (COMIC: *Agents of Drahva*)
Earth Alliance

The **Earth Alliance** was a political entity, centred on Earth, that was formed by the 22nd century and became the dominant form of human government in the Mutter's Spiral.

## History

The Alliance had been established by 2345. At this point, they had set up multiple academies across its numerous member planets; one student of the New York Academy being Twentieth Doctor companion Drelick. (TV: *Freshman*)

By 2354, it had established a colony on Azura, which came under attack from the Algak. This invasion was repelled by Azura's General, with the help of the Fourteenth Doctor and Sandra Parry. (TV: *Fallen From Grace*, *The Enemy of Trust*)

The Algak were thought totally destroyed; but with the backing of Imperius, a rogue Time Lord (TV: *The Fracturing Algak*) - they waged war against the Alliance in 2365. (TV: *The Trial*) In reality, Imperius was manipulating the Algak for his own purposes and secret motivations. (TV: *The Puppet Masters*)

The final battle of this war took place over Earth, where the Algak ultimately switched sides and fought against Imperius, after realising that they had been played all along. Imperius was killed, as was the Twentieth Doctor, as the war came to an end. (TV: *An End Once And For All: Part One*, *An End Once And For All: Part Two*)

The Alliance was succeeded by the Earth Empire, which was formed sometime between 2480 and 2520. By some capacity or another, the Alliance was still active by 34,973, but was most likely not the same organisation - rather, it was probably one which happened to share the same name. The Everglow Interplanetary Mall was a popular tourist destination for the Alliance's citizens at this point in time. (TV: *The Grand Army of One*)
Fallen Officer (The Republic Falls)

A **Fallen Officer** responded to the Fourteenth Doctor's call for an audience with the Fallen Mothership positioned above Vallaly, inviting her onboard the ship on the condition she went alone. On arrival, the Doctor met with the officer and began to ask what the Fallen were planning to do and who exactly the Fallen were before the officer merely laughed in her face for not seeing the obvious trap.

The officer then claimed that the Doctor's ability to hack into their frequency and to communicate with them intrigued them very much, so they ran a biometric scan and when they found out she wasn't a Comparian, they decided they needed her away from the rest, deciding the Republic couldn't be afforded any advantages.

The officer then ordered the detonation of the Doctor's ship and ordered two grunts to take her to a cell. The officer was later killed when the Doctor destroyed the Fallen Mothership. (TV: *The Republic Falls*)
Iriemond

**Iriemond** was a small city of the planet Catalist, - home to around 1 million Comparians, Arkhers and Catalasts; as well a few minor communities of other species. Iriemonders often bemoaned that the Capital located on Zanra may as well think Iriemond didn't exist, considering the extra lack of attention the city received from the Alae Republic.

However, the Sixteenth Doctor thought it was a beautiful cultural hotspot.

## History

The Master arrived at Iriemond sometime after her encounter with the newly regenerated Doctor at Pasadena, (TV: *A Masterful Reckoning*) with the expressed intent of carrying out a new form of plan. In this case, the Master did not look towards world domination, believing Catalist not to be worth it. Instead, she wanted to have some of her own fun - deciding to kidnap civilians to experiment on.

She led children away from an orphanage into her TARDIS, testing how Comparian, Catalast and Arkher DNA reacted when combined with DNA of species from other planets - ultimately determining that Earth spider DNA produced the best results, creating a massive and mutated arachnid creature. The Master produced numerous of these creatures and let loose the spiders on Iriemond, activating their Chaos Mode, meaning all their brain functions became set towards one objection - cause as much damage as possible. She also turned on Collection Mode, which meant the spiders did not kill their victims; but rather, they brought them back to her TARDIS to also be converted.

The Master was defeated and the spiders wiped out by the Doctor's companion, Alec O'Conor, who had gained access to the Master's TARDIS and recalled all the spiders in order to seal them away. Iriemond may have been left in semi-ruins, but it was now safe once again. (TV: *Spiders and Fireworks*)
Cassidy Jistro

**Cassidy Jistro** was the co-presenter for Season Seventeen of 481st century television show Paranormal Planets - the other being Gerry Benosvich.

## Biography

For the Season Seventeen finale "Whatever Happened to the Crew of the SS Dahlia?", Cassidy and crew travelled to Verosa Prime in order to investigate a ghostly signal emitting from the SS Dahlia which had long since crash landed on the planet thousands of years ago. They were aware of an artefact that was the supposedly cause of this signal - and so, set off to uncover and extract it. The crew was later joined by the Seventeenth Doctor, Jayanna IX and Mosdra in their expedition through the crashed ship.

Intrigued by her lack of interest of the situation, Cassidy attempted to get under Jayanna's skin concerning the topic of the paranormal as much as she could; to the point where when they were instructed to split off together halfway through the episode, Jayanna left her alone, in what was presumably the laboratory, as she went in search for her two friends. Cassidy subsequently was consumed by the leftover remnant of the DNA eating plant-based lifeform after she wandered into the engine room. (TV: *Whatever Happened to the Crew of the SS Dahlia?*)

Biological Agent (Duality)

A **biological agent** was used by a ex-member of Humanity's Beacon in order to poison and kill the Twentieth Doctor.

## History

After the Doctor and Drelick defeated the Opal Master and her allies, Humanity's Beacon in their attempt to destroy the Multiverse, (TV: *The Opal: Part Two*) most of its members were taken into custody - however, just as the Master escaped, so did a few other members of the group. One such member wanted to get their revenge on the Doctor and came up with an assassination plan - to use a highly dangerous and potent poison. When the Doctor and his companion Penelope arrived back in Alliance controlled New York City to meet up with Drelick, this person became aware of the Doctor's presence and managed to sneak in the Alliance building, disguised as a work and poisoned his drink.

The Doctor almost immediately fell into a coma and had his mind placed within a holographic program to keep his mind safe, sane and healthy as Alliance Doctors and the Doctor's companions worked to save his body from dying. Penelope invited Kyber to the Doctor's bedside; collecting him via TARDIS in order to say his goodbyes in case the Doctor did actually die. However, the Master was also made aware of the situation and arrived on scene; opting to join the Doctor in the program - she wanted to help him survive as she believed only she herself was allowed to kill him.

She later vowed revenge on this assassin and after exploring the Doctor's memories with him to keep him alert as his condition deteriorated even further - they worked together once he was finally cured to find this assassin and did so by examining security logs and tracking them down within New York City. They were found to be the last member of Humanity's Beacon still at large and were taken into custody as well. (TV: *Duality*)
Doomsayer (TV story)

***Doomsayer*** was the Halloween Special of Series 13 of *Doctor Who*.

This episode marked the final appearance of Julie Graham as Iriel as a regular cast member.

## Synopsis

After the events of the Doctor's most recent adventure, Gallifreyan Commander Iriel has opted to stay behind in a future of her planet not ravaged by furious, wounding conflict. It's a future of diplomacy and peace without those willing to bring an end to the structure and order of this ancient species, and one becoming slowly improved with the helping hands of the Doctor's friends.

Or at least, the planet would be restoring and improving its once admirable level of order if not for the fact that the Doctor has just so happened to uncover a chain of unexplained disappearances quietly swept under the rug by the High Council of Gallifrey for centuries now. A mystery that she is now determined to solve alongside Iriel and her old friend Leela.

A mystery that traces back to a planet that exists outside the realm of the boundaries of time itself. A planet that shouldn't exist, and one that's forcing its way back into existence from the very birth of the universe with resulting catastrophic consequences, starting with a direct collision with Gallifrey...

Kanbi

The **Kanbi** were a large canine species who originated from Melos, a small planet from the outer regions of the Beta Keplon Cluster. They would create wormholes to enter new planets to invade and take over completely, kidnapping natives for slave labour and food - often working alongside another native species; the Silvertax.

The Kanbi were often seen as significantly more primitive than the Silvertax and indeed, the Silvertax held a kind of superiority over them - one noticable difference being that whilst both the Kanbi and Silvertax had a form of verbal language, even if it was considered too simplistic and primitive by other species, only the Silvertax had a form of written language.

## History

In 4059, the Kanbi and Silvertax had opened wormholes in the newly constructed Goldenbar Corporation Tower in London and begun to kidnap party-goers, dragging them through the wormholes to their underground base back at Melos. However, this party happened to be attended by the Fourteenth Doctor, Elias Danielsen and Fleur. Concerned by their inability to communicate with the Kanbi, the Doctor and Elias made their way through a wormhole whilst Fleur remained behind to aid in the evacuation of party-goers. From there, they discovered the true extent of their intelligence and stole machinery that opened the wormholes. Making their way back to London, they forced the Kanbi and Silvertax back through the wormholes via the use of a fire alarm activated at a frequency only the invaders could hear, causing them to retreat in pain. The Doctor then smashed the machinery, ensuring that the Kanbi and Silvertax could never return. (TV: *Feline Trouble at the Tower*)

By 9067, the Silvertax had reformed and parted ways with the Kanbi, ending their relationship. It is unknown what became of the Kanbi afterwards, but rumour had it that they fled to the southern-most island of Melos and attempted to continue what they did alongside the Silvertax; but to poor results. (TV: *The Rebel Invasion*)
