{{incarnations of Morbius}}After the death of his [[Second Morbius|artificial body]] built by [[Mehendri Solon]], the [[Time Lord]] criminal [[Morbius]] was resurrected in a '''new body''', his third after his [[First Doctor|original body]] and the artificial one. He attempted to wreak his revenge on [[Gallifrey]] and resume his dreams of galactic conquest, but was defeated when the entire timeline in which his resurrection had occurred was [[aborted timeline|aborted]], with only [[Straxus]] and [[Lucie Miller]] remembering it.

[[Cristophe Zarodnix]] later became the leader of the [[Cult of Morbius]] and bought the planet Karn, forcing the Sisterhood off-world. On Karn, he found a fragment of Morbius' brain and began to look for a Time Lord, so he could extract [[DNA]] to fuse with what was left of Morbius, in order to effect his resurrection. Zarodnix used DNA from the Time Lord agent [[Straxus (Human Resources)|Straxus]] to effect a new [[regeneration]] for Morbius.

=== A new lease of life ===

In his new form, Morbius used a [[stellar manipulator]] to suck the power of the [[Eye of Harmony]], making the Time Lords powerless to stop his conquest. Morbius rebuilt his military forces, including mind-controlled [[Trell]], and spent a decade conquering over ten thousand worlds, but his body was unstable and required frequent gene-splicings (called "feedings") from Straxus. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Vengeance of Morbius (audio story)|The Vengeance of Morbius]]'')

 

=== Defeat and unmaking ===

The [[Eighth Doctor]] and [[Lucie Miller]], who had barely escaped from Gallifrey before Morbius used the stellar manipulator, arrived and worked with Straxus and the cybernetically augmented Trell policeman [[Rosto]] to steal the remote control for Morbius' stellar manipulator. The Doctor succeeded in taking the control and releasing the Time Lords, who promptly broke the [[Laws of Time]] to prevent Zarodnix's purchase of Karn and Morbius' resurrection; however, at the moment before the [[Timeline]] was rewritten, Morbius and the Doctor fell from the balcony of Morbius' palace. The Time Lords believed the Doctor to be dead, but he was actually transported by the Sisterhood to the planet [[Orbis]]. The timeline in which Morbius had been brought back to life was unmade, with only Lucie Miller and Straxus remembering it.
