'''Tecteun''' was a [[Shobogan (species)|Shobogan]] and one of the first inhabitants of [[Gallifrey]] to explore other planets. She discovered the [[Timeless Child]] on one such planet, and adopted her as her own. She later brought the child back with her to Gallifrey.
According to secret information found by the [[Spy Master]] in the depths of [[the Matrix]], the '''Second Tecteun''' was one of the [[Founders of Gallifrey|Founding Fathers of Gallifrey]], as well as the first [[Gallifreyan]] ever to [[Regeneration|regenerate]].  


When Tecteun discovered the child's ability to [[regenerate]], she experimented on several of their incarnations to discover the secret to this ability to the point where it became an obsession of hers to find out the mysteries of regeneration. Eventually she injected herself with the genes which had been spliced from the child. Upon doing so she immediately regenerated into a male incarnation. Tecteun later gave his people living in the [[Capitol]] this gene so that they would be able to regenerate and limited the regeneration cycle to twelve regenerations. This was to become the foundation of an elite society; they came to be known as [[Time Lord]]s.
