'<nowiki/>'''Swordfish'''' was a [[Time Lord]] encountered by the Eighth Doctor and his companions onboard an ancient TARDIS they found floating in the vortex.  
'''Swordfish''' was the name used by a [[psychosurgeon]] who became one of [[Caleera]]'s [[assistant]]s.


Originally a preeminent 'psychosurgeon' on Gallifrey, he treated a young Caleera, conducting the initial interviews and eventual surgery on her that surpressed her burgoening psychic abilities. He took great pride in his work, in restoring her to 'normal', and felt he'd done her a great service.  Caleera bore a grudge for years, and after she was manipulated by the rogue Time Lord known as 'the Eleven', she used her returned abilities to punish him. She then 'recruited' him along with two other Time Lords to act as 'helpers' in her efforts to expand her abilities even further.

The Psychosurgeon was asked by the [[Time Lord Academy]] to provide [[Caleera]] with treatment to quell her [[psychic power]]s, including supplying her with [[suppressant]]s. Once she was restored to normal, he recommended to the [[Stormblood|Chief Archivist]] that she be given a job as an assistant to a [[junior archivist]].


By the time the Doctor arrived, he has taken to calling himself 'Swordfish', and had been driven insane through exposure to the [[Time wind]]s, since the TARDIS had badly degraded, loosing it's outer shell completely. He took on the role of a servant to 'Lord Stormblood' and 'Lady Sepulchra', his fellow Time Lord captives, and was responsible for the prisoners they kept as test subjects. He remembered enough to still help with the experiments, and that it used [[Caleera]]'s own psychic powers. Once Caleera was free, she lowered the TARDIS shields, allowing Stormblood and his companions the death they longed for, sending them falling into the vortex.

Caleera kidnapped the Psychosurgeon, an Educator and the Chief Archivist after being manipulated by the Eleven and hypnotised them into assisting her in experiments aboard a TARDIS in the Time Vortex. The time winds drove them insane, turning them into Swordfish, Lord Stormblood and Lady Sepulchra.

Taking on the role of servant to Lord Stormblood and Lady Sepulchra, Swordfish was in charge of the prisoners and taking them for Caleera to kill. When Liv Chenka freed the prisoners, they grabbed onto the three helpers who then told her that they served Caleera. Once she was freed by the Eighth Doctor, they begged for their freedom and were exposed to the Vortex, killing them. (AUDIO: Scenes From Her Life)
