Biography
Childhood
As a child, Rupert lived in West Country Children's Home in Gloucester for some time. One night, he had a nightmare of someone under the bed grabbing his ankle, and he met the Twelfth Doctor and Clara Oswald for the first time. They encountered a figure which the Doctor believed might be a creature that hid under the bed. The three of them turned their backs so the creature could leave unseen. After it departed, Clara attempted to put the child at ease by placing toy soldiers to guard under his bed. She designated one of them - which Rupert had called "Dan the soldier man" - as the one in charge: a soldier so brave, he didn't need a gun. Rupert's mind was then scrambled by the Doctor to prevent remembrance of this encounter. He instead would only recall a dream where he was "Dan the soldier man".
