Super Identity and Secret Identity:
The Doctor / John Smith
Alliance:
Chaotic Good
Gender Preference:
Male... so far.
Age:
945
Birthday:
He doesn't exactly remember.
Personality:
In this particular incarnation, the Doctor is a bit puckish. He enjoys traveling about the universe, and thrills at the excitement of running. He's not a particularly polite individual, and often insults people without meaning to. He considers himself [at least in this regeneration] to be 'rude and not ginger'.
The Doctor is a protective, if not at times fatherly, individual to his companions. He dislikes being alone, especially since losing someone rather dear to himself. His heart is still full of great regret. He's alone in the universe, the last of his kind. The Doctor has lost his home, his people, and individuals whom he loved. This has caused the Time Lord to develop a bit of a dark side. When left to his own devices, he can be merciless, cruel, and downright cold-hearted. He doesn't believe in second chances.
Appearance:
His hair is extremely wild. Due to being a Time Lord, and quite frankly because of his nature, the Doctor doesn't really pay much mind to how he looks. What matters most to him is if his attire is comfortable and functional. Lately he's opted to wearing a solid blue suit, white oxford shirt, and a red tie. Upon his feet he wears a pair of red trainers, footwear he hasn't worn since his fifth incarnation.
Depending on the weather, he also wears a rather large brown trenchcoat, which billows behind him much like the cape of some la-dee-da superhero would. More often than not though, the coat remains in the TARDIS console room.
His eyes are a rather sharp brown in color, and he has a mole on his back, between his shoulderblades. He's extremely skinny, being referred to once as 'a long streak of nothing'. His slim form is due to his constant running, and his extremely fast metabolism.
The Doctor, unlike most beings, has two hearts. They function together, one pumping, then the other. The sound of his own heartbeat is actually a four-count. Though he's far too busy with his own adventures to pay such things any mind. On rare occasions, when he's feeling as though he must look particularly clever, he wears a pair of black, rectangular framed glasses.
History:
Long ago, back before humans were even a thought, the Time Lords were developing. They were a grand race, discovering fire when the Earth was still forming, and developing high-speed space travel when humans just invented the wheel. The society was grand, pristine, and grew to exist souly to observe the universe. To study various beings and star systems, to learn. For learning was the greatest gift life could offer.
They developed an Academy, calledthe Gallifreyan Institute of TechnologyPrydon Academy. It was at this establishment where Time Lords would be given their official designation upon graduation. At the age of eight, potential students would be made to gaze into the untempered schism, a tear in the fabric of space and time, located inside the confines of Prydon Academy.
Some went mad, those that did were locked away, deemed 'unworthy' by the Time Lords. There were some though, who went mad, but hid it well. Then there were others who sought to run, and keep running, forever. A young Gallifreyan was given the designation 'Theta Sigma'. He was a rather wide-eyed young man, wishing to find adventure, to be free. He had no desire to become some old fuddy duddy, watching the worlds spin. He sought to explore them.
His closest friend was another Time Lord named Koschei. The two were the closest of friends, almost like brothers. They spent all their summers together, and studied hard in Prydon. However, Koschei had a darkness within him, a darkness that grew with each passing year. Eventually, a tear developed in their relationship.
Upon graduating, Koschei chose his title, 'The Master'. He saw it fitting. He then took his Tardis and made it his life's mission to bring about as much chaos as he possibly could in the universe.
Theta Sigma opted to choose a special name, one he knew that would help convey his desire to do good in the universe. Henceforth he was called the Doctor. Both his true birth name, and his name through Prydon Academy, were locked away. From that moment on, he was, and always would be, The Doctor.
He traveled the universe for a few hundred years, first with his granddaughter Susan, then opting to pick up a few humans, and various extra-terrestrials from other planets. He became something of a thorn in the side of Rassilon, the Lord President of the Time Lords, as well as the council.
His constant meddling in various events through time, saving lives, and his many run-ins with the Daleks, Cybermen, and various other creatures resulted in the council having to punish the Doctor several times throughout his life. Companions came and went, but the Doctor's desire to help others remained a constant in each incarnation.
The Daleks were a perpetual enemy of the Time Lords, desiring nothing more than to obliterate anything in the universe that wasn't of Dalek origin. They were beings capable of only one emotion; absolute hate. Their genetic code was care of their creator, a madman named Davros. The Time Lords launched into an all-out war with the Daleks, causing beings of higher existence [like the Gelth] to feel the effects of the war.
The Doctor was struck with a heartbreaking choice. He had to save the universe...he had to stop the Time War. So he locked away the Time Lords, the Daleks, both his home planet of Gallifrey and that of Skaro, forever.
After that he regenerated once again, becoming his ninth incarnation, a man of rage and anger. Yet that rage, that fire, that sadness was healed and quelled by a single young woman. A young woman with whom the Doctor fell quite in love with, to the point that he gladly sacrificed himself, absorbing the heart of the TARDIS into his very person, in order to spare her from dying.
Unfortunately, he and that vivacious young woman were forced to part ways, and the Doctor began wandering. He had a few companions, one of which who encountered an old enemy with him, the Master. It was during the Year that Never Was that the Doctor felt as though he had the chance to not be alone again.
Granted, the world was ending, his precious TARDIS had been turned into a paradox machine, but he wasn't alone anymore. He wasn't the last of the Time Lords. Unfortunately, the dream was short-lived. The Master died in his arms, shot by his own wife. The Doctor left to wander again.
He met the woman Donna Noble, a sassy, vivacious redhead who demanded respect from those around her. He developed a fondness for the woman, seeing her as a dear friend [despite the pair being mistaken for being 'together' several times. Yet once again happiness was a fading dream.
Once more he had to lose his companion, worse yet if Donna ever remembered him, she'd burn up from the inside out, due to now having the mind of a Time Lord, specifically the Doctor. Yet she was the most important woman in all the universe.
Recently the Doctor has landed in Townsville, a bit curious as to what is going on in the city. The place is a virtual cesspool of fantastic timelines. Intrigued, the Doctor has opted to try and blend in with normal society.
As of yet, the Doctor is unaware that he's crossed back into his own timeline, to a point wherein the Master still lives, and goes by the name Harold Saxon. Nor is he aware of the presence of the Rani. Due to the presence of so many superpowered humans, his capacity to sense his own kind is greatly reduced. He has to be relatively close in order to feel one out.
Secret Identity:
He doesn't have one. Though sometimes he does pose as a human for the fun of it. [Or you know, when he's running from The Family to prevent himself from being possessed.]
Power:
Being a Time Lord he has a few quirks about him that most beings in the universe lack. The Doctor can literally feel the universe. He knows of everything that happened, and everything that ever could be. He is drastically in tune to the grand workings of life around him, not that it shows. When on a planet he can feel it moving. The Doctor also possesses a trait found in all Time Lords. In the event of his impending death, he can regenerate every single cell in his body, becoming a completely new person.
RP Sample:
Space.
The final frontier.
These are the voyages of the starship...wait. That could't be right.
The Doctor prodded at his television, sitting in the console room of the TARDIS, which he parked in a rather inconspicuous part of town. After all, the last thing he needed was Division Six, more commonly referred to as the Men in Black, showing up at his doorstep...again.
You'd think after saving the planet a few hundred times, a man would be entitled to a parking space. These Americans were almost as bad as Torchwood. Well... Torchwood before Captain Jack got his hands all over it.
Thinking of the Captain made the Time Lord sigh. They had a lot in common... They were both rather alone in the universe. Perhaps he could go and find Jack, bring him along on an adventure or two...
No. He couldn't. What if something happened to him? Besides, the TARDIS wasn't all that fond of Jack anyway. The last time he'd gotten close, she had launched herself to the end of time itself in order to get rid of him.
Currently he was attempting to tune into the local news broadcast. It seemed that things in Townsville were a lot worse off than he originally calculated. The Time Lord knew this place needed help. Hopefully he could be just the one to help it.
Other:
This is the Doctor in his tenth incarnation. This Doctor's timeline crosses over back into his own [something only really seen in the new series], though he also entertains the possibility of being in an Alternate Universe as well. Any companions are welcome, be they Classic or New series.
