During [[human-Hath War|a short war]] on the [[planet]] [[Messaline]] between [[human]]s and [[Hath]], both sides used progenation machines.

The then nameless Jenny pushed a button which triggered an explosion, collapsing the tunnel and cutting the group off from the Hath and Martha. Shortly after, Jenny was named by Donna from the Doctor's description of her as a "generated anomaly." Jenny's commander, [[Cobb (The Doctor's Daughter)|Cobb]], imprisoned the Doctor, Donna, and Jenny where Donna proved that Jenny was indeed the Doctor's daughter by listening to her [[binary vascular system]]. However, the Doctor insisted that she was nothing more than an "echo" and that a "real" [[Time Lord]] was "so much more." | The then nameless Jenny pushed a button which triggered an explosion, collapsing the tunnel and cutting the group off from the Hath and Martha.

By kissing [[Cline]] and stealing his [[pistol]], Jenny was able to allow them to escape, impressing the Doctor with her capability, even if he didn't care for her inclination towards violence, having to later convince her not to kill Cobb. As the three of them made their way through Messaline, Jenny spoke with the Doctor about the possibility of travelling with him, and he told her that he would never leave her. The Doctor told the respective parties to end the war, whereupon General Cobb aimed his gun and shot at him, Jenny jumping in the way of the bullet. | By kissing [[Cline]] and stealing his [[pistol]], Jenny was able to allow them to escape, impressing the Doctor with her capability, even if he didn't care for her inclination towards violence, having to later convince her not to kill Cobb.

Believing her to be dead, the Doctor left the planet. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Daughter (TV story)}}) While she was shot through one of her twin hearts, as she was not a Time Lord she was unable to [[regenerate]] and recover from her fatal injury. However, due to her death being in close proximity to the Source, its gaseous compound revived her.

She then stole [[Jenny's shuttle|a shuttlecraft]] and left Messaline. When asked where she was going, she restated Donna's earlier description of the Doctor's life: "Oh, I've got the whole universe: planets to save, civilisations to rescue, creatures to defeat — and an awful lot of running to do."

Travelling around in [[Jenny's bowship|her bowship]], Jenny tracked the progress of a [[white hole]] to the planet [[Sultath]], where she encountered [[Jack Harkness]] and [[Tara Mishra]]. Failing to save them, she flew after them into the white hole, becoming trapped herself. She was saved by the [[Fifth Doctor]] who in doing so, was sucked in himself.

Jenny then travelled to [[St Luke's University]], another of the few places the Doctor was sedentary, where she met the [[Twelfth Doctor]] to get his help. As she told him what had happened, her bowship was analysed by [[UNIT]] personnel, [[the Void]] energy saturating its hull infecting [[Kate Stewart]] and [[Patronella Osgood|Osgood]]. Immune to the white energy thanks to being [[time travel]]lers, the Doctor, Jenny, [[Bill Potts]] and [[Nardole]] entered the TARDIS, only to find that it merged with the version occupied by the [[Tenth Doctor]], [[Gabby Gonzalez]] and [[Cindy Wu]], grounding the ship. Ejecting themselves, the group emerged on the university's lawn, finding a white hole that threatened to devour the planet before the [[Ninth Doctor]] saved them from the possessed students. Though the group tried to use his TARDIS to escape, it too had merged with its other selves before the [[Eighth Doctor]] and [[Josie Day]] emerged from it. Deciding to use the bowship, the Ninth, Tenth, and Twelfth Doctors flew into the portal to discover the source of the threat. Left to hold the line, Jenny rallied the companions to hold off the possessed forces before the threat passed. Deprived of her bowship, Jenny was returned to her proper time and place by the Ninth Doctor. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Lost Dimension (comic story)|The Lost Dimension]]'') | ||

Jenny showed a lot of the brilliance, lust for life, and the determination of her [[Tenth Doctor|father]]. Though programming had made her military-minded and goal-orientated, she was too much like her father for this to dictate her actions. While at first, she showed violent intentions towards others, she soon adopted the Doctor's values and principles, though she still retained her miltary mind. She even inherited his selflessness as shown when she took a gunshot from Cobb to save her dad. | Jenny showed a lot of the brilliance, lust for life, and the determination of her [[Tenth Doctor|father]].

Being biologically [[the Doctor's species|the same species]] as the Doctor, Jenny had two [[heart]]s, as well as reflexes, precision timing, and acrobatic ability far beyond that of an average [[human]]. At first, the [[Tenth Doctor]] flatly denied that she should be considered a [[Time Lord]] because she lacked the shared culture, code, and [[knowledge]]. However, as he later admitted to [[Donna Noble|Donna]], "when I look at [Jenny] now, I can see them. The hole they left, all the pain that filled it. Just don't know if I can face that every day."

Prior to November 2013, Jenny was considered a "companion presumptive". It is clear, once the Doctor accepted her as his daughter, that she would travel with him and Donna. Her "death" ended these plans. In the ''[[Prisoners of Time]]'' comic miniseries released five years after ''The Doctor's Daughter'', all of the Doctor's companions were kidnapped by Adam Mitchell.
