Nethersphere: Difference between revisions

The '''Nethersphere''', also known as the '''[[Promised Land]]''', [[Paradise]], or '''[[Heaven (afterlife)|Heaven]]''', was a [[virtual reality]] housed within a [[matrix data slice]] — a [[Gallifreyan]] hard drive — used by {{Gomez}} to upload the [[mind]]s of the recently [[deceased]], changing and rewriting them, removing their emotions before re-downloading them into their [[Cyberman (Mondas)|Cyber-converted]] bodies. ([[TV]]: ''[[Dark Water (TV story)|Dark Water]]'')

The [[Half-Face Man]] said he was trying to reach the Promised Land. Its existence was denied by the [[Twelfth Doctor]]. When the Half-Face Man died after having been impaled upon the spire of [[Big Ben]], he was transported to a lush [[garden]] where he encountered Missy. She said that he had "made it" and that he was in "the promised land" — or, as she also called it, "paradise". ([[TV]]: ''[[Deep Breath (TV story)|Deep Breath]]'')

Later — as from the Doctor's perspective — the mind of [[Gretchen Carlisle|a soldier]] from the ''[[Aristotle (spaceship)|Aristotle]]'' was transported to an elegant [[tea room]], where she, too, encountered Missy. ([[TV]]: ''[[Into the Dalek (TV story)|Into the Dalek]]'') Later still, the Doctor discovered that [[Sky vessel|a ship]] of [[Knight (Robot of Sherwood)|robots]] that had crashed in [[Nottingham]] of about [[1190]] had a programmed destination of "the promised land". ([[TV]]: ''[[Robot of Sherwood (TV story)|Robot of Sherwood]]'')

A [[Body-donor (Dark Water)|man]] was uploaded to the Nethersphere at the same time as [[Danny Pink]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Dark Water (TV story)|Dark Water]]'')
