| The '''Timeless Child''' was a title used to refer to the mysterious being from whom, across several regenerations, [[Tecteun]] extracted the secret of [[regeneration]]. According to {{Dhawan}}, the Timeless Child's [[incarnation]]s were none other than the original incarnations of '''[[the Doctor]]''', long before the [[First Doctor]].

| == History ==
| | {{Main|Timeless Child's regenerations}} |
| According to {{Dhawan}}, the [[Founders of Gallifrey|Founding Fathers]] of [[Gallifrey]] built [[Time Lord]] society on a [[Lying|lie]] regarding the Timeless Child. This was buried deep within all Time Lords, in the form of repressed [[thought]]s and [[memory|memories]]: hidden, but integral to their [[identity|identities]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Spyfall (TV story)|Spyfall]]'') He later expanded upon this stating that an individual known as the "Timeless Child" was discovered and whose ability to [[Regeneration|regenerate]] was written into the genetic code of [[Time Lord]]s. This history was subsequently hidden, with another explanation, a lie, being given for this ability instead. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Timeless Children (TV story)|The Timeless Children]]'')

| While taunting the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] about her [[fear]]s, [[Remnant]]s on the planet [[Desolation]] looked "further back" into her past and referred to the Timeless Child.
| | The '''Seventh [[Timeless Child]]''' was the last incarnation experimented on by the [[First Tecteun]] before she managed to learn the secrets of [[regeneration]]. He was also the incarnation who was inducted into [[the Division]]. |

| | Tecteun was eventually able to replicate the regenerative ability for herself and eventually spread it to the other Time Lords, though they limited their number of regenerations to [[Life cycle|twelve]]. In the process, the Timeless Child became the genetic template upon which all Time Lords gained their regenerative powers, in effect meaning that a piece of the child is in each Time Lord. |
| When they made the reference, the Doctor was confused and asked them what they were talking about, then angrily told the Remnants to "get out of [her] head". ([[TV]]: ''[[The Ghost Monument (TV story)|The Ghost Monument]]'')

|
| Once the Master learned the truth about the Timeless Child, he ravaged Gallifrey to "make them pay" for what he discovered. He told the Thirteenth Doctor that learning the truth had not been easy for him. When the Master first mentioned the Timeless Child mystery to the Doctor, she got a massive [[headache]] and a flashback to when the Remnants approached her, as well as a glimpse of a child wearing yellow robes and standing outside a tall building under a purple sky. ([[TV]]: ''[[Spyfall (TV story)|Spyfall]]'')
| | Tecteun and the child were inducted into a clandestine organisation called the Division, led by a Time Lord called [[Solpado]], whose job it was to intervene in time when necessary. After being tested, the results came back saying they were the best the Division have ever seen. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Timeless Children (TV story)|The Timeless Children]]'') |
| | |
| While aboard a [[Zellin's space platform|space platform]] in the [[far future]], the Doctor, after having fallen unconscious due to [[Zellin]]'s powers, dreamed about the vision of the Timeless Child while the Master's message to her echoed in her mind. In this scenario she was actively present in the vision. ([[TV]]: ''[[Can You Hear Me? (TV story)|Can You Hear Me?]]'')
| |
| | |
| The Timeless Child was eventually revealed by the Master to be a child discovered on [[Planet (The Timeless Children)|another planet]] who had the power to [[regenerate]], and had come through a gateway from another universe or dimension. The child was adopted by [[Tecteun]], who discovered her power to regenerate after she suffered a fatal fall from a cliff, leading to Tecteun studying the child's power for a number of years and regenerations. Tecteun was eventually able to replicate the regenerative ability for herself and eventually spread it to the other Time Lords, though they limited their number of regenerations to [[Life cycle|twelve]]. In the process, the Timeless Child became the genetic template upon which all Time Lords gained their regenerative powers, in effect meaning that a piece of the child is in each Time Lord.

| The Master revealed to the Doctor that the Timeless Child was in fact [[the Doctor]] themselves who apparently had her memories redacted. This was the Master's reason for why he ravaged [[Gallifrey]], anger in the fact that every Time Lord, including him, had a piece of the Doctor in them. In addition, large portions of [[the Matrix]] on Gallifrey pertaining to the life of the Timeless Child were also redacted beyond even the Master's ability to recover it. However, [[Tecteun]] hid some of the truth in the Matrix in the form of the story of [[Brendan (Ascension of the Cybermen)|Brendan]], an immortal Irish policeman. [[The Master]] suggested that this was an attempt by Tecteun to apologize or possibly a gift meant to help her child one day decode the truth of their existence.
