Blessed previously appeared in ''[[Mindwarp (TV story)|Mindwarp]]'' as [[Yrcanos]] the "[[barbarian]] [[king]]", a epithet also used to describe an [[Omega (Remembrance of the Daleks)|incarnation of Omega]] who appeared in [[Remembrance of the Daleks (novelisation)|the novelisation]] of ''[[Remembrance of the Daleks (TV story)|Remembrance of the Daleks]]''. | In the end, Omega was depicted in [[Oxirgi]]'s vision as a hazy humanoid figure seemingly made of pure light — thus obviating the need to give him any particular physical features.<ref>''Meet the Creators: John Ridgway'' in [[OMEGA 1]]</ref> However, he was given a much more human appearance when portrayed by [[Brian Blessed]] on the [[Omega (Cutaway audio story)|audio adaptation]]'s cover.

A character called "Rassilon's Engineer" appears in a transmission [[Sam Jones]] receives on [[Anathema]] in ''[[Interference - Book One (novel)|Interference - Book One]]''. Although the character is not named, he is strongly implied to be Omega. The transmission originates in a [[Faction Paradox]]-influenced culture built on a Time Lord artefact, so the implication may be that Rassilon attempted to minimise Omega's part in Time Lord history, reducing him to the role of "Rassilon's Engineer". | A character called "Rassilon's Engineer" appears in a transmission [[Sam Jones]] receives on [[Anathema]] in ''[[Interference - Book One (novel)|Interference - Book One]]''.
