Aphasia was an Aubertide (PROSE: Human Nature) whose story had happened "many times in many different ways" some of which she hadn't even been "present for" (AUDIO: Shadow of a Doubt)
One version of Aphasia menaced the Seventh Doctor and Bernice Summerfield on Earth in 1914 when she and her family attempted to gain his biodata and become Time Lords - complete with psychic powers and regenerative abilities. This version was shot and killed by students during an attack on Hulton College. (PROSE: Human Nature)
Another version was the daughter of a criminal family known only as the Family of Blood who led an attack on Farringham School for Boys in 1913 hoping to steal from the Doctor some means of ensuring that they would live a longer lifespan. When the Tenth Doctor caught her after her family tried to take his life essence, he trapped her inside every mirror in existence. He visited her once a year, every year, (TV: The Family of Blood) across several incarnations, including the Seventh Doctor, the wheelchair-bound Doctor, (AUDIO: Shadow of a Doubt) and the redheaded Doctor. (AUDIO: Shadow of a Doubt, WC: The Shadow in the Mirror)
On Andromeda Bernice encountered Daughter of Mine and identified her as Aphasia, Bernice refused to free her from the mirror until she apologised for her actions but Daughter of Mine attempted to insist that Aphasia had been a "different her". Bernice didn't believe the excuse and abandoned the mirror.
