For failing to help the Doctor in the Death Zone, the Time Lords destroyed the Master's Trakenite body, reducing him to little more than a helpless phantom as they exiled him to the depths a [[forest]]. The Master was found by [[the Master's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] after it managed to resist the Time Lords attempt to reprogram it, and it helped him to attain physicality in the form of a shadowy figure in dark robes. | For failing to help the Doctor in the Death Zone, the Time Lords destroyed the Master's Trakenite body, reducing him to little more than a helpless phantom as they exiled him to the depths of a [[forest]].

In an attempt to trap the Doctor and steal one of his remaining regenerations, the Master faked his own death, ensuring the Doctor would attend the funeral at the nursing home where he supposedly spent his final days. His plan was to force a regeneration out of the Doctor and steal this one life to revive himself using an arcane ritual involving twelve [[mirror]]s — but the Doctor was saved by [[Vislor Turlough]], and the Master's plan was foiled yet again. Instead, the Master found himself confronting mental projections of all his past regenerations. In a prowess of will that impressed even the Doctor, the Master was able to overpower the shades of his past selves and steal a bit of life energy from each of them, allowing him to [[regeneration|regenerate]] back into his Trakenite body.

The Master allied with his old Academy classmate, {{O'Mara}}, in [[Killingworth]] against the [[Sixth Doctor]] and [[Peri Brown]]; the Master hoped to hasten the advancement of Earth's technology for his own nefarious reasons, while the Rani wanted the brain chemical that induced sleep in humans. The Doctor trapped the Master and the Rani in [[the Rani's TARDIS]], which the Doctor had sabotaged, with the [[time spillage]] putting them in danger of being eaten by a [[tyrannosaurus rex]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Mark of the Rani]]'') The Master separated the Rani's console room from the rest of her TARDIS, freeing himself while leaving the Rani to drift aimlessly through the vortex.

The Master materialised in [[the Matrix]] and observed the Sixth Doctor's trial on ''[[Space Station Zenobia]]'', while examining the Matrix footage himself to see what was tampered with. Learning that [[the Valeyard]] was an "amalgamation of the darker side of [the Doctor's] nature", the Master decided that the Valeyard was a bigger threat and rescued the Doctor by supplying the Doctor with witnesses in the form of [[Melanie Bush]] and [[Sabalom Glitz]], and revealing himself to the court as a surprise witness. Using Glitz as a tool, the Master tried to steal secrets from the Matrix, but was beaten by the Valeyard, and imprisoned in the Matrix by a limbo atrophier with Glitz. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Ultimate Foe]]'') The Time Lords released the Master and Glitz from the Matrix, whereupon the Master killed the technicians and fled in his TARDIS. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Mission: Impractical (novel)|Mission: Impractical]]'') After escaping, the Master could regenerate his body because [[The Source (The Keeper of Traken)|the Source]] of [[Traken]] still existed within him.

The Master | The Master was exiled to the planet Alexis by the Time Lords. In his exile, the Master observed the life forms of the planet, the [[Mogellan]]s, and saw how they were all connected in one great environment, and how they used special [[crystal]]s to communicate. When a [[Kotturuh]] woman arrived on the planet, the Master pretended to intercede for the Mogellans' salvation, and they gave him one of the crystals as a a token of good faith. The crystal, however, revealed them that the Master was lying in order to exploit the crystals in the future, and they allowed the Kotturuh to end their lives to stop him.

The Master was seen multiple times after somehow escaping the Cheetah World, still in Tremas's body and infected by the Cheetah Virus. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Stop the Pigeon (short story)|Stop the Pigeon]]'', ''[[Prime Time (novel)|Prime Time]]'') However, the Master himself contradictorily claimed that he was immediately stranded on Earth after escaping, and was then cured by [[Tzun]] [[nanite]]s and regenerated into a new body. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier (novel)|First Frontier]]'') In even more contradictory accounts, the Master was either taken to [[Skaro]] for trial and execution in his stolen Trakenite body, and still infected by the virus, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Eight Doctors (novel)|The Eight Doctors]]'') or, no longer infected by the virus, lost Tremas's body and reverted to his previous cadaverous form.

The "Tremas" Master had various opinions of the first seven incarnations of the Doctor. He referred to the [[First Doctor]] as a "bore", the [[Second Doctor]] as an "incapable comedian", the [[Third Doctor]] as a "worthy foe", the [[Fourth Doctor]] as "the bohemian, [and] the wanderer", believed that the [[Fifth Doctor]] was "the nice one full of charm, innocence, and naiveté", described the Sixth Doctor as "the blustering one with the stupid coat", and that the [[Seventh Doctor]] was "too busy setting traps" to realise the ones "set for him".
