'''Original Mammoths''' were the original generation of [[Mammoth]]s, native to the [[Dark Times|time before time]]. They were ruled by [[Cernunnos]] and were the rulers of the [[painted warrior]]s and [[human]]ity, whom they created using [[loom|breeding-engines]]. They had great [[psychic power]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cobweb and Ivory (short story)|Cobweb and Ivory]]'') | |||
In the time before time, there existed [[Alter-time realm (Cobweb and Ivory)|cities carved into gigantic ivory tusks]] where [[scholar]]s and [[Philosophy|philosophers]] rode on the backs of [[steam]]-powered mammoth [[skeleton]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)|Christmas on a Rational Planet]]'') These cities were inhabited by the mammoths.

After the [[Time Lord]]s [[Anchoring of the thread|eradicated irrationality from reality and created history]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Christmas on a Rational Planet (novel)|Christmas on a Rational Planet]]'') Cernunnos ordered the humans to hunt mammoths to [[extinction]].

A trace of loyalty to mammoths remained in humanity's collective [[memory]] for billions of years, and Cernunnos was eventually resurrected in the [[posthuman]] era by a group led by [[Linemica]]. These posthumans built a planet for the mammoths, [[Terra Primagenia]]. | ||
Cernunnos found [[Alter-time realm (Cobweb and Ivory)|the remains of a pre-Anchoring time mammoth city]] with the unwitting help of [[Avus]], and used it as a base to begin planning to undo the [[anchoring of the thread]] in [[War in Heaven|a War]] against the [[Great House]]s.

* The Original Mammoths made a further licensed appearance in ''[[White Canvas (short story)|White Canvas]]'', a short story which crossed over elements of the ''Doctor Who'' and ''Faction Paradox'' mythos with the separate sci-fi series ''[[10,000 Dawns (series)|10,000 Dawns]]''. They were not given the capitalised name of "Original Mammoths" in an in-universe context until that short story. | |||
