In the [[Unbound Universe]], '''the third [[incarnation]] of [[the Doctor]]''' was [[exile]]d by the [[Time Lord (Unbound Universe)|Time Lords]] at the end of his previous incarnation's [[life]]. However, although he was supposed to be exiled to [[Earth (Unbound Universe)|Earth]] in the [[1970s]], he instead arrived at Earth in [[1997]]. Because of this, the Doctor was not present to help [[UNIT (Unbound Universe)|UNIT]] as their [[scientific advisor]], as the [[Third Doctor]] of [[the Doctor's universe|another universe]] had been. 

After the [[Great War (Unbound Universe)|Great War]] devastated his universe, the Doctor was believed to be the last of his kind and thus held the title "Ruler of the Universe". In a failed attempt to escape to another universe, he brought [[Bernice Summerfield]] from her universe to his universe, and they began travelling together. The Doctor eventually devised a way to protect the surviving parts of his universe and return Benny to her universe, becoming stranded in said universe in the process.

== History ==
=== Early travels ===
A [[Time Lord (Unbound Universe)|Time Lord]] from the planet [[Gallifrey (Unbound Universe)|Gallifrey]], the Doctor's [[First Doctor|first incarnation]] had originally been friends with [[Unbound Master|the Master]] in their schooling before both stole [[TARDIS]]es and left their home. In his travels, the Doctor visited [[Earth (Unbound Universe)|Earth]] on several occasions, befriending [[Mao Tse-Tung]] in his days as a [[librarian]] and twice meeting [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (Unbound Universe)|Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]], helping him against the [[Robot Yeti]] in one of their meetings. During his travels, [[Unbound Doctor's TARDIS|the Doctor's TARDIS]] became stuck in the form of a [[police box]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Sympathy for the Devil (audio story)}}) 

The Doctor visited the planet [[Skaro (Unbound Universe)|Skaro]] and helped the [[Thal (Unbound Universe)|Thals]] defeat the [[Dalek (Unbound Universe)|Daleks]] in what was later referred to as the [[Great Siege]]. Though the Doctor initially thought this to be the end of the Daleks, he would later encounter the [[Dalek Empire]] conquering other planets, a faction of Daleks he would later learn were known as [[the Renegades]], and fought against them. Their battles led the Doctor to believe that the Daleks were beyond redemption. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Masters of War (audio story)}})

The Doctor once recalled encountering a German man seeking [[Atlantis]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Übermensch (audio story)}}) The Doctor also became familiar with the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]], particularly their methods of invasion. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Auf Wiedersehen (audio story)}})

=== Exile to Earth ===
[[File:Sympathy for the Devil inner cover.jpg|left|thumb|The Doctor in his third [[incarnation]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Sympathy for the Devil (audio story)}})]]
In his [[Second Doctor|second incarnation]], the Doctor was put on [[The Doctor's trial (The War Games)|trial]] by the [[Time Lord (Unbound Universe)|Time Lords]] for the violation of the [[non-interference policy]]. Found guilty, the Doctor was forced to [[Regeneration|regenerate]] and was told that he would be exiled to Earth in the 1970s. However, his [[Unbound Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] instead arrived in [[Hong Kong (Unbound Universe)|Hong Kong]] on [[30 June]] [[1997]].

Immediately after leaving the TARDIS, the Doctor bumped into [[Marcus (Unbound Universe)|Marcus]] and [[Adam (Unbound Universe)|Adam]]. He followed them to ''[[the Little England]]'', a pub run by [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (Unbound Universe)|Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]]. The Doctor recognised the Brigadier and convinced him that he was the same person with whom Alistair fought [[Robot Yeti]] in the [[London Underground]]. The Doctor was concerned that he had arrived in the wrong time, as he had wanted to meet the Brigadier much earlier.

During their conversation, a Chinese plane disguised with [[chameleon circuit]] technology flew over them and crashed onto a nearby mountain. The Doctor and the Brigadier went to the crash site and helped the [[Pilot (Unbound Universe)|pilot]] get out of the wreckage and recover. UNIT arrived and brought the pilot to a nearby monastery. At the monastery, the Doctor heard that [[Ling]] saw a man [[Regeneration|change his appearance]] and realised that a [[Renegade Time Lord]] had been on the crashed plane.

Confronting his fellow in the main hall, the Master revealed himself to the Doctor, releasing an alien parasite which had been kept trapped at the monastery. The Doctor talked with the Master and made a deal once he'd learnt the Master was just as trapped as he himself was now. The Master agreed to stop his plan in exchange for a lift in the Doctor's TARDIS after the Master had lost [[Unbound Master's TARDIS|his own]]. When the Master inevitably double-crossed the Doctor, the Doctor tricked his old friend into thinking that ''the Little England'' was his TARDIS. When the Master entered the pub, the Doctor had the parasite placed in the TARDIS, bringing the Brigadier with him, and they dematerialised to [[Mongolia]]. The Doctor dropped the parasite into a test area seconds before it was hit by a nuclear bomb and it was killed.

Instead of returning to Hong Kong, the Doctor and Alistair the sheer power of the nuclear explosion disrupted the inhibitor the Time Lords had placed on the TARDIS, allowing the ship to freely move in time and space once again as the Doctor wished. Landing on a new world, the Doctor invited Alistair to be his new companion. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Sympathy for the Devil (audio story)}})

According to one account, the Doctor returned to Hong Kong and became comfortable with his exile. When the [[Sixth Doctor]] and [[Evelyn Smythe]] accidentally travelled sideways in time to his universe, they helped the Doctor stop "an annoying man" from infecting the [[United Nations]] with [[Krynoid]] pods. The exiled Doctor helped repair the Sixth Doctor's TARDIS by donating his TARDIS' [[dimensional control]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The 100 Days of the Doctor (audio story)|The 100 Days of the Doctor}})

=== Travels with Alistair Lethbridge-Stewart ===
[[File:Doctor and Brigadier MoW.jpg|thumb|The Doctor with [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart (Unbound Universe)|Lethbridge-Stewart]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Masters of War (audio story)|Masters of War}})]]
By another account, the Doctor did not return to his exile and continued travelling in the TARDIS accompanied by Alistair. Upon visiting [[Skaro (Unbound Universe)|Skaro]], he helped [[Gillen]] and the other [[Thal (Unbound Universe)|Thals]] to stop the [[Dalek (Unbound Universe)|Daleks]]. He created a neutraliser which altered a Dalek's mind so that it would believe that it was the returned [[Davros (Unbound Universe)|Davros]]. This created some dissidence among the Daleks. However, when the new threat of the [[Quatch]] attacked Skaro, the Doctor suggested an alliance between the Daleks and Thals so that they could stop the Quatch, he and Alistair acting as the alliance's military leaders so that the Quatch could not predict what their opponents would do. With the Quatch defeated after the returned Davros sacrificed himself to destroy the equipment keeping them in this reality, the Doctor departed, although Alistair remained to help mediate the new Dalek/Thal alliance. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Masters of War (audio story)}})

=== The War ===
At some point, the [[Great War (Unbound Universe)|Great War]] was waged across the universe. The Doctor later claimed he’d tried to stay out of the conflict and tried to help from the sidelines, but had been unable to stop the devastation. [[Mandeville]] claimed that the Doctor was actually a participant, being known as the “Cautious Warrior” for his tactic of sidling up to his enemies and stabbing them in the back. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Library in the Body (audio story)}}) At one point during the War, the Doctor tried to offer the Time Lords advice, but found they would not listen to him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Asking for a Friend (audio story)}}) 

The Doctor worked with the Master during the conflict. Towards the end of the War, the Master had acquired a weapon that would destroy the enemy at the cost of essentially destroying the universe as well. The Doctor abandoned him in the hope that the Master would be unable to activate the weapon without him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Emporium at the End (audio story)}}) 

After the War had ended, believed to be simply due to the combatants running out of weapons and galaxies, the universe itself was dying. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Library in the Body (audio story)}}) However, the Doctor made a deal to buy it a few more centuries, sacrificing some of his memories in the process. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Emporium at the End (audio story)}}) The Doctor became ruler of the universe due to the rest of his people being dead, leaving him the only one left in the line of succession, much to the anger and displeasure of many races and people, many of whom didn't trust him. Whenever he met any of these individuals, they would mock or deride him for his actions during the Great War. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Library in the Body (audio story)}})

=== Adventures with Bernice Summerfield ===
==== Wandering a dying universe ====
With [[Great War (Unbound Universe)|the war]]'s aftermath causing [[Unbound Universe|the universe]] to face collapse, the Doctor travelled to the prime universe to find Professor [[Bernice Summerfield]], hoping that he could latch onto her unique [[artron energy]] signature to anchor him to that universe so he could escape. Instead, it dragged her back into his own. Returned to his dying universe, they visited [[The Library (Unbound Universe)|the Library]] to find [[knowledge]]. He wanted to protect the Library from the [[Kareem]], until he realised the Library was a parasite after reading one of its books. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Library in the Body (audio story)}})

Despite the Doctor's protestations that [[Planet X (Unbound Universe)|Planet X]] was boring, Bernice managed to persuade him. He was arrested upon arrival for being too interesting. He discovered that the populace was decreasing due to the population being processed to be boring, believing that they would be protected from the wider universe if nobody was interested in them. He was to be processed but the gas they used didn't affect him. He worked out that 20 million people were killed in 5 years. He escaped and met [[Ego (Unbound Universe)|Ego]] where he was invited to a suicide party and re-arrested. In the final confrontation with [[Prime Minister 470]], he exposed the truth about her reign while she was trying to torture him whilst broadcasting to the entire planet, encouraging the rest of the population to explore possibilities rather than being boring all the time. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Planet X (audio story)}})

The two of them then visited Tramatz to stop an imminent attack but he got distracted by the singing river, wandering off until Benny finally found him again. [[Megatz]] inquired into why they were there but he had forgotton why after a couple of weeks on the planet. When Benny saw a unicorn he told her to talk to it to calm it down. He spent his time listening to the world. He wouldn't allow Benny to keep the unicorn. It became glaringly obvious that a weapon that had ended the war was warping reality and making people unaware of their impending doom. After the weapon was disabled, he decided to visit Admiral [[Effenish]] in order to try and stop the war from restarting. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Very Dark Thing (audio story)}}'')

The TARDIS then received a distress call from the [[Mother Superior (Unbound Universe)|Mother Superior]] to take a crowd of refugees to the Emporium, as the end of the universe appeared to be nigh. There he met the Manager, the Master in disguise, and found him familiar. He was escorted out of the building for trying to sneak around the Master's offices. He later decided to sell his memories to help people escape this universe, only to learn that he had already sold them to keep this universe alive. With this revelation, and his subconscious recognition of the Master, the Doctor realised that the Master's portal, which was allegedly sending lucky people to an alternate universe, was actually disintegrating them and creating the illusion of accelerated universal destruction so that the Master could guarantee his own escape. The Master was subsequently thrown into the portal by the angry sisters and seemingly disintegrated, leaving the Doctor and Benny to explore this universe and find another way to save it. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Emporium at the End (audio story)}})

====Encountering N-Space's Doctor====

At some point, the Unbound Doctor's TARDIS materialised within [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] owned by the Doctor of [[N-Space]], whom Benny originally travelled with. His [[War Doctor|counterpart]] at the time was in the midst of a [[Retro-regeneration|degeneration]] crisis, taking the form of the [[Ninth Doctor]]. As such, the TARDIS interior flitted between his version and his N-Space counterpart's. They were both menaced by a psionic sand creature and traced it to the hall of the [[Time Lord Immemorial]]. Shortly after arriving, they encountered [[Liv Chenka]] and [[the Lumiat]], a heroic version of [[the Master]]. The TARDIS brought him and Liv to the places between universes, and saw that his universe was converging. He later started being affected by the degeneration crisis but helped summon the Time Lord Immemorial. He was sent back to his own universe and called for Benny. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Time Lord Immemorial (audio story)}})

==== President of the Universe ====
The Doctor was eventually forced to officially take on his title of [[Ruler of the Universe]] in order to try and protect the survivors of this dying reality. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The City and the Clock (audio story)}}) Under the Doctor’s guidance, a Parliament of the Universe was founded. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The True Saviour of the Universe (audio story)}})

The Doctor funded Bernice's mission to excavate the site of the [[Apocalypse Clock (Unbound Universe)|Apocalypse Clock]] on [[Merin (planet)|Merin]] as a potential means to save his universe from destruction, even as he admitted later that he'd never seriously expected her research to bear any fruit and mainly did it to try and secure a public victory to improve his credibility. Benny eventually asked him to come and look at her dig. He did but their friendship soured as he was grumpy at his job, due to the amount of paper work and the remedial talks he had to do. He became stuck on Merin as he hadn’t negotiated a settlement to prevent strikes of the spaceport staff, due to being busy. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The City and the Clock (audio story)}})

The Doctor began working to create a “safe zone” with the Clock and oversaw the evacuation of planets to move their populations to safety. Troubled by his inability to help others due to the bureaucracy of his position as president, he attended regular appointments with the therapist [[Guilana (Unbound Universe)|Guilana]]. He discussed such issues as his perception of other people as tools to help him or his frustration at the bureaucracy that prevented him helping certain planets as he tried to "punish" troublesome rulers who were exploiting the situation. She helped him to remember portions of the Great War. However, his appointments ended when he was revealed to have manipulated Guilana's timeline to save her former fiancé from the shuttle accident that killed him. He did this because he wanted to make someone happy when he lost a planet and a friend. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Asking for a Friend (audio story)}})

The Doctor plotted to step down from running the universe, and concocted a grand scheme to make the change seem natural. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The True Saviour of the Universe (audio story)}}) He absconded from his duties and went off in the TARDIS for adventures to try and find some random alien invasion to deal with, but his efforts failed as his new reputation meant that every alien he encountered immediately backed down when they recognised him. Benny eventually caught up with him and together investigated his only discovery of an actual invasion. However this proved much more morally complex than he’d hoped as the "invasion" had occurred sixty years earlier and aside from the children of the original invaders, the only member of the planet's original inhabitants left was one old woman who liked her isolation, forcing the Doctor to accept things as they were. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Truant (audio story)}})

Upon returning to the Parliament, the Doctor was arrested and impeachment proceedings began, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Truant (audio story)}}) as he'd planned. He appeared before the Parliament, deliberately antagonising them, and explained the Clock was ready but he couldn’t take the risk of activating it due to an unknown release of energy. This confession allowed the Master to take his place as he promised to activate it regardless, which won over the angry Parliament. The Doctor appeared to take the rejection badly and disappeared, however was actually reconfiguring the TARDIS. When the Master activated the Clock the energy discharge began to awaken the [[Great Old Ones]], as the Master had anticipated, however the Doctor used the TARDIS to steal the energy, materialising in front of Benny in the midst of a panicking crowd. In the “downsized” TARDIS, he used the energy to return Benny to her home universe. He explained that, without the Great Old Ones, the Master would be constrained by the bureaucracy and Parliament, so may end up actually being a good ruler of the safe zone in his place. He and Benny set out together to explore her universe. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The True Saviour of the Universe (audio story)}})

==== Travels in Benny’s universe ====
With the TARDIS back to normal, the Doctor was disappointed when Benny took him to a car boot sale, though he bought a new hat stand for the TARDIS. He indulged Benny investigating the [[Lampian]] artefact she had bought. He eventually found a convenient book about the lampian in the Asimar Archive. He was worried about all the coincidences and decided to go back in time to check the veracity of the history of the Lampian. He saw history being rewritten in front of his face. He eventually found it difficult to travel to some locations. He worked out the Lampian were figurative creations of [[Gariff]] powered by Benny unintentionally. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Pride of the Lampian (audio story)}}) 

The Doctor served as Benny’s anchor when she used a [[subjectivity recorder]] to experience the life of [[Annis (The Angel of History)|Annis]], appearing as a professor at the university where she worked at key points to influence her decisions but only being visible to her. After Benny reached the end of Annis’ life and awoke, he explained to her how Annis was remembered. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Angel of History (audio story)}})

The Doctor and Benny landed on [[Civitas-G]] which was a cutting edge simulation, which he didn't trust. He heard [[Zita]]'s voice over the hullabaloo of the festival and went to find her. After learning more about the revisions he was caught by the data police and placed in the world's equivalent of the recycle bin. He worked out what the [[Administrator (Clear History)|Administrator]] was doing to control the world. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Clear History (audio story)}})  

Benny and the Doctor pretended to be a married couple when they stayed at [[Flor]]'s bed and breakfast on [[Neirut]]. He decided to do the ironing which Flor found unusual. He found a dead body with Flor, but was arrested by [[Rylan Winsell]]. He realised that [[Daphne Gold]] had seen similar murders. He offered his help to solve the murders. He searched Flor's belongings thinking she might be involved. He found a catacomb beneath the bed and breakfast walled with skulls. He stored the ancient queen in Flor's data storage eye. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dead and Breakfast (audio story)}}) 

Responding to a distress signal, they came to a half-abandoned museum but was annoyed on about it. He didn't like working on an archaeological dig and snuck ahead to find the answers but didn't find them, but found that all the people went missing. He came after Benny when she fell down a hole and found [[Landren (Burrowed Time)|Landren]]. He hypothesised that many had fallen into the tunnels over the years. He theorised that the train was dying and that was it was behaving erratically. He drove the train back to the surface. This fulfilled a lifelong dream of his. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Burrowed Time (audio story)}}) 

After arriving aboard the ''[[Ark of Whispers]]'', the Doctor fell down a hole upon exiting the TARDIS, injuring his ankle. Crawling along in the dark, he began communicating with a computer interface which was chirping back. Realising it was copying him and Benny, the Doctor began to use it to indirectly communicate with Benny, who was still at the top of the ship. Finding his way out of the ventilation shaft, he continued exploring the ship whilst teaching the interface. He realised the interface was becoming intelligent and withholding information. Together he and Benny deduced the ship was designed to be isolated and kept in silence, however he realised the ship was on a collision course with a populated planet. After Benny used the interface to foil his attempt to blow up the ship to force him to find a better way, he confessed his recent misery. Realising they needed to persuade the interface not to hit the planet, he had Benny retrieve the [[TARDIS tuner]] to force it to listen to the people on the planet. His plan worked and he and Benny parted ways with the interface, though they were saddened when it revealed that it had to delete its newly acquired knowledge to complete its mission. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Have I Told You Lately? (audio story)}})

The Doctor took Benny to the bogs of [[Gelmoth]] to investigate [[the Undying]], an ancient being who had died despite being supposedly immortal. They arrived just as a preserved body was excavated by a group seeking the Undying and joined their expedition, with the Doctor pretending to be from their head office. After one of the crew died due to running into the bog in fear, the expedition left in their spaceship with the Doctor having the TARDIS brought onboard. During the journey they discovered the Undying was actually a fungus possessing a host and its spores had been influencing them. After the Doctor purged it using the spaceship’s airlock he and Benny departed, however as they entered the TARDIS the [[Time Lords]] attempted to stop them. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Undying Truth (audio story)}})

To evade the Time Lords, the Doctor took Benny to a unremarkable planet and turned off the TARDIS. For twenty-six days they resided in a cabin on an island, with Benny being intrigued by the nearby tribe whilst the Doctor saved a sea monster from them. They passed the time with board games, which the Doctor cheated at to Benny’s annoyance, and the Doctor returned to the TARDIS on occasion though he barred Benny from doing so. Eventually Benny deduced the truth about the tribe, that they tolerated outsiders for twenty-seven days before killing them, but they were both captured just as she told the Doctor. Escaping being tied to a pole as the tide rose together, the Doctor revealed he’d deduced the monster was a survivor of a past alien expedition to the island and it’s eggs were signal devices. He fully activated one to help the creature, which also attracted the Time Lords just as the tribe had discovered their survival. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Inertia (audio story)}})

Captured and brought to [[Gallifrey]], the Doctor was placed on trial for existing, with him appointing Benny as his defender. He was irritated by his neighbouring cell mate continuously tapping "now" in Time Lord morse code on their shared wall. Benny devised a plan where he was seemingly executed but actually transported into [[the Matrix]]. Returning to his cell, he and Benny investigated the bizarre occurrences on Gallifrey and deduced that the Time Lords were under the influence of the [[Now (species)|Now]], pan-dimensional parasites. The Doctor devised a way to force the Time Lords to regenerate using the [[Crown of Rassilon]] to purge the Now, but realised it would kill all of the Now as well as many Time Lords in the process and backed out of the plan. Coordinator [[Narvin]] initiated the plan himself, revealing he had had the Doctor brought to Gallifrey in the hope that he would devise a solution. Furious, the Doctor and Benny departed Gallifrey. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Gallifrey (audio story)}})

==== Fighting the Cybermen ====
Tracing an alien signal to [[1930s]] [[Berlin]], the Doctor became separated from Benny when she went to investigate disappearances with [[Wulf]] and traced the source of the signal to the [[Conformity Institute]]. There he discovered a [[Cyber-Planner]] and convinced it to deactivate its emotional inhibitor to prove its superiority. After it had a meltdown he killed it by removing a component and, after initially forgetting she'd gone, went in search of Benny. With the reluctant aid of Wulf's employer, he located her in a [[CyberFaction|Cyberman]] base and intervened just in time to save her from [[Cyber-conversion]], using the component from the Planner to flood the Cybermen's brains with nonsense so they would close down. He took Benny back to the TARDIS to help her recover. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Willkommen (audio story)}}) He re-programmed the nanites the Cybermen had implanted in her to defend her in the event of them trying to convert her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Auf Wiedersehen (audio story)}})

[[File:Blood & Steel extra art Unbound Doctor.jpg|thumb|The Doctor uses [[Unbound Doctor's sonic screwdriver|his sonic screwdriver]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Blood & Steel (audio anthology)|Blood & Steel]])]]
The Doctor met up with Benny after she tracked down the partially-converted Wulf to his village. After she asked for some work to do to take her mind off things, he told her he had something to show her, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Wulf (audio story)}}) taking her to a museum in Berlin where an ancient rock gave off alien particles. They joined an archaeological expedition, unaware they were Nazi occulists, which was digging up the site the rock had been found in search of "the Vril". They discovered the dig site was actually a Cyberman intelligence trap but were unable to stop the Nazi archaeologists activating it. The Doctor attempted to use a golden statue against the awakened Cybermen, however the Cybermen revealed it and the particles had been planted deliberately to lure him and make him believe he could stop them. Whilst Benny fled, the Cybermen injected him with [[Cyber-nanites]] to attempt to convert him. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Übermensch (audio story)}})

The Doctor continued to resist the nanites, working to rewrite them to attack Cyber technology instead. As he did this, the Cybermen attempted to force his compliance by parading victims in front of him at a club in Berlin and converting them as he kept refusing. Eventually they captured Benny and he kept up his resistance, letting them put her in a conversion chamber. With a final handshake he combined her nanites with his own, and as he planned they saved her from conversion and attacked the Cybermen. The Doctor then repurposed the hypnotic pulse the Cybermen had used to subdue Berlin to kill all the Cybermen. Solemn at the outcome of these events, he and Benny departed. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Auf Wiedersehen (audio story)}})

==== Finding Dark Gallifrey ====
The Doctor went along with Benny’s desire to find the mythical [[Dark Gallifrey]], feigning reluctance when in truth he wanted her to find it. There they encountered the [[Imbomination]], a sentient [[temporal paradox|paradox]], which Benny managed to weaken by spreading its energies across every Doctors’ timeline throughout the [[Multiverse]], much to his frustration. They managed to escape and decided to hide every trace of Dark Gallifrey to prevent anyone else finding it.

Sometime after he and Benny had parted ways, the Doctor returned to Dark Gallifrey to rescue her after she’d been forced to take the [[War Master]] and Captain [[John Hart]] there, as he and Benny had anticipated someone would eventually use her to do that. She asked the Doctor to take her home, wanting to introduce him to her cats. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The War Master (audio story)}})

== Psychological profile ==
=== Personality ===
To the Chinese, the Doctor was known as Hu (the [[Tiger]], for his courage), Hu (the [[Fox]] for his cunning), and Xue ([[Doctor]], he who tends to the sick). The last of these was his personal favourite. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Sympathy for the Devil (audio story)|Sympathy for the Devil]]'') 

The Doctor was very protective of his friends. The Undying’s spores attempted to exploit this, leading to him locking Benny in a room in an overzealous attempt to keep her safe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Undying Truth (audio story)|The Undying Truth]]'') When he thought Benny might have been Cyber-converted, the Doctor was furious at the Cybermen, terrifying [[the Compère]] who helping him. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Willkommen (audio story)|Willkommen]]'')

The Doctor proved his reputation for cunning, even admitting himself that this body had a habit of it. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Auf Wiedersehen (audio story)|Auf Wiedersehen]]'') On [[Skaro (Unbound Universe)|Skaro]] he attempted to incite a civil war among the [[Dalek (Unbound Universe)|Daleks]] by tricking one into believing itself to be [[Davros (Unbound Universe)|Davros]] and later collaborated with the Daleks in strategising their defence against the [[Quatch]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Masters of War (audio story)|Masters of War]]'') According to [[Mandeville]], during the Great War the Doctor became notorious for stabbing his enemies in the back. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Library in the Body (audio story)|The Library in the Body]]'') After the War the Doctor masterminded his own downfall as President of the Universe, in the process ensuring the activation of the safe zone and thus the preservation of his universe whilst also finding a way to return Benny to her universe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The True Saviour of the Universe (audio story)|The True Saviour of the Universe]]'') The Doctor prepared for the possibility of Cybermen attempting to convert Benny a second time by reprogramming the nanites leftover from the first attempt to fight it, and relied on this contingency to defeat the Cybermen completely. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Auf Wiedersehen (audio story)|Auf Wiedersehen]]'')

The Doctor was known for appearing a coward, though he insisted he was simply cautious. Mandeville ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Library in the Body (audio story)|The Library in the Body]]'') and the [[Mother Superior (Unbound Universe)|Mother Superior]] criticised cowardly actions he had done during the War such as abandoning [[Unbound Master|the Master]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Emporium at the End (audio story)|The Emporium at the End]]'') After the War, the Doctor made a failed attempt to flee his dying universe to escape his responsibilities, an action he believed even the TARDIS disliked him for. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Library in the Body (audio story)|The Library in the Body]]'')

When angered, the Doctor could be ruthless to his enemies. After being infuriated by her regime, the Doctor let [[Prime Minister 470]] die at the hands of her own enforcers and also saw to the death of [[Ego (Unbound Universe)|Ego]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Planet X (audio story)|Planet X]]'') The Doctor also did not hesitate to destroy a [[Cyber-Planner]] and when he discovered the [[Cybermen]] had nearly converted Benny threatened to cause them pain until he felt better about losing her. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Willkommen (audio story)|Willkommen]]'') He did have limits however and refused to wipe out the parasitic Now to save the Time Lords. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Gallifrey (audio story)|Gallifrey]]'')

The Doctor had a tendency to behave childishly, such as by frequently deriding experiences that he found boring ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Planet X (audio story)|Planet X]]'', ''[[Have I Told You Lately? (audio story)|Have I Told You Lately?]]'') and cheating at board games. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Inertia (audio story)|Inertia]]'') He would often become grumpy when forced to do tasks he disliked, which was a frequent problem whilst he was President of the Universe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The City and the Clock (audio story)|The City and the Clock]]'', ''[[Asking for a Friend (audio story)|Asking for a Friend]]'') 

During his time as President of the Universe, the Doctor began to struggle with the pressure of saving the universe. He was especially frustrated by having to work within a bureaucracy and make deals with dictators to try to save lives. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Asking for a Friend (audio story)|Asking for a Friend]]'')

After some time travelling in Benny’s universe, the Doctor began to feel miserable, finding everything bland and becoming argumentative with Benny. Their adventure on the ''Ark of Whispers'' forced him to concede this to Benny, and he promised to talk to her more. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Have I Told You Lately? (audio story)|Have I Told You Lately?]]'')

=== Skills ===
The Doctor could speak [[Mandarin]], [[Cantonese]], [[Manchu]], [[Mongolian (language)|Mongolian]], and [[Hokkien]]. He had some medical knowledge, as he was able to care of an injured pilot. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Sympathy for the Devil (audio story)|Sympathy for the Devil]]'')

== Appearance ==
This Doctor appeared to be an older man with light blue eyes, and he had grey, swept back [[hair]]. ([[AUDIO]]:''[[Sympathy for the Devil (audio story)|Sympathy for the Devil]]'') His hair had grown longer by the time of his visit to [[Skaro (Unbound Universe)|Skaro]].
