Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

This page lists appearances of The Master in the order in which they experienced them. It relies on much speculation to fit semi-contradictory sources together, and should absolutely not be seen as representative of this wiki's general policy.

Early life[[edit source]]

Main article: Theory:Timeline - The Master's early life

The War Chief[[edit source]]

Some accounts imply that the War Chief was an incarnation of the Master, (PROSE: Doctor Who and the Terror of the Autons, Doctor Who and the Doomsday Weapon) although others state that they are separate individuals. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties, A Brief History of Time Lords)
The War Lord encounters the Time Lord who will become his War Chief in a Trastevarian jail, after the Time Lord regenerates from his injuries. (PROSE: Save Yourself)
The War Chief matches wits with the Second Doctor when he lands in the War Games, until he proposes an alliance with the Doctor to double-cross the War Lords and seize their powers for themselves. When his treachery is discovered, the War Chief is apparently executed.
Continuing on from The War Games, the War Chief undergoes a faulty regeneration from his execution, manifesting as two bodies fused together. Convincing the remaining War Lords that his treachery was a misunderstanding, the War Chief frees them from their time loop prison, and takes them to Nazi Germany, where he becomes an occult advisor to Adolf Hitler, with the intention of replacing him as Führer with Heinrich Himmler. When the Seventh Doctor exposes his plans, the War Chief is caught in an explosion at Drachensberg castle and is briefly glimpsed by Ace with a "young, tall, dark and satanically handsome" appearance.
