Rodan was a Time Lady who worked as a controller on Gallifrey. She helped to fight an invasion of her homeworld by first the Vardans and then the Sontarans.
Biography
Rodan's work involved maintaining the protective transduction barrier around the planet, monitoring threats to Gallifrey and reporting on it to her superiors.
Rodan befriended Leela, recently abandoned by the Fourth Doctor, who as a ploy had pretended to collaborate with the invading Vardans. Both women were exiled by the Doctor outside the Capitol as part of his ploy so that they could gather resistance to fight off the invaders. Rodan found a natural environment hard to cope with mentally. After the Doctor had K9 disable the transduction barrier and Gallifrey was invaded by the Vardans and the Sontarans, she worked to restore it. (DW: The Invasion of Time)
Behind the scenes
