[[Romanadvoratrelundar]]'s '''third incarnation''' was, like [[Romana II|her predecessor]], also [[Lord President|President]] of [[Romana III's Gallifrey|Gallifrey]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Enemy Lines (audio story)|Enemy Lines]]'') She led Gallifrey through its darkest hour. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Luna Romana (audio story)|Luna Romana]]'')
Accounts differed on the identity and activties of '''[[Romanadvoratrelundar]]’s third incarnation''', i.e. the one who followed [[Romana II]]’s [[regeneration]].


== Biography ==
By most accounts, the third Romana served as [[President of the High Council]] during an all-encompassing [[time war]] between [[Gallifrey]] and another major temporal power. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Shadows of Avalon (novel)}}; [[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Luna Romana (audio story)}}) Other accounts, however, suggest that Romana had eschewed the Presidency during this incarnation and served the [[universe]] in other ways. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lord Romanadvoratrelundar (feature)}}; [[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Little Book of Fate (short story)}})
=== A day to come ===
After [[Romana II]] returned from the [[Axis]], she was aided by a [[the Matrix|Matrix]] projection of Romana III. This projection called herself "Trey" to distinguish herself from her predecessor.


Trey stopped [[Leela]] and [[Narvin]] from returning properly by trapping them in a [[Time loop|Chronic Hysteresis]]. She then showed her younger self the results of the [[Pandora]] devastation. By offering her [[Capitol]] to her previous incarnation, Trey saved her thousands of years in rebuilding the planet. She had Romana exiled for the death of [[Kolspen]] of [[Unvoss]]. This occurred in the Matrix. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Renaissance (audio story)|Renaissance]]'')
== War Queen of the Nine Gallifreys ==
{{main|Romana III (The Shadows of Avalon)}}
According to one account, during the first decades of her [[Lord President|Presidency]], Romana II regenerated into a snub-nosed woman with green eyes and dark hair, styled into a fringe, who apparently resembled [[the Doctor's mother]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Shadows of Avalon (novel)}})


When Romana disappeared, she went with Narvin and Leela to the Archives, where they met [[Tallan]]. She helped Narvin and Leela escape the Matrix before it collapsed. Trey later aided her second incarnation in defeating the [[Dalek]]s, who were invading [[Gallifrey]] in her past. She created a plan to trap the Daleks inside the Matrix, thus stopping them from invading Gallifrey itself. She stopped the invasion force from leaving the Matrix by closing its doors from the inside. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Ascension (audio story)|Ascension]]'')
By this account, Romana would lead [[Gallifrey]] as it approached an all-encompassing [[time war|temporal conflict]] with [[the Enemy]] known as [[War in Heaven|the War in Heaven]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Ancestor Cell (novel)}}, et al.) However, after [[Faction Paradox]] invaded Gallifrey, the War was averted and Gallifrey was destroyed. This resulted in [[Post-War universe|a new form of reality]] where history was “fundamentally altered” and both Gallifrey and the [[Time Lords]] were wiped from the timeline. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Ancestor Cell (novel)}}, {{cs|The Adventuress of Henrietta Street (novel)}})


This Matrix projection of Romana III claimed to be the last of [[Time Lord|her people]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Renaissance (audio story)|Renaissance]]'')
In her official capacity as Lady President of the High Council of Gallifrey, she would go by titles such as '''the War Queen''' and '''Mistress of the Nine Gallifreys'''. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Shadows of Avalon (novel)}}, {{cs|The Ancestor Cell (novel)}})


=== Gallifrey's darkest hour ===
== Leading Gallifrey though its "darkest hour" ==
When President Romana went on a mission to fix the engines of the [[Moros]], she [[regenerated]] in her third incarnation. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Enemy Lines (audio story)|Enemy Lines]]'')  
{{main|Trey}}
[[File:Trey_and_II.jpg|thumb|left|The [[Matrix]] projection of [[Romana II]]'s potential successor, dubbed "[[Trey]]", alongside Romana II herself. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Luna Romana (audio story)}})]]In an [[aborted timeline]], however, Romana II regenerated into a young woman with blue eyes and long dark hair styled into a fringe. This regeneration came about as a means of preventing the host ship [[Moros]] from becoming a [[black hole]] and destroying [[Gallifrey]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Enemy Lines (audio story)}})


During the final term of office, Romana III had to deal with an anomaly near [[Earth]], created using the [[Hand of Omega]]. A secret society, known as the [[Adherents of Ohm]], were trying to gain power on Gallifrey, and she suspected that [[Narvin]] might be part of it. There was an attempt to assassinate her though [[Tauras]] managed to save her. She travelled through a black hole after Narvin tracked [[Ace]] there and found out that Tauras had set [[Omega]] free from the anti-matter universe. She tried to travel back into her own universe again but was stuck in the black hole as the [[type 160]] TARDIS she was using ran out of power. She accepted that she along with Narvin and Ace wouldn't see Gallifrey again, until [[Irving Braxiatel]] saved her and went after Omega. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Intervention Earth (audio story)|Intervention Earth]]'')
By this account, Romana would lead [[Gallifrey]] through its “darkest hour” ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Luna Romana (audio story)}} as it engaged in a large-scale [[time war|temporal conflict]] with [[Omega]] and [[Adherents of Ohm|his adherents]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Enemy Lines (audio story)}}) This [[Time War (Enemy Lines)|Time War]] would escalate to the point wherein Romana, [[Narvin]], and [[Ace]] were found guilty of high treason. However, after Romana sent her friend [[Irving Braxiatel]] back in time to avert her regeneration, the War was [[aborted timeline|averted]]. This resulted in a new timeline wherein she resigns from the Presidency and is succeeded by [[Livia]] and is unsure if she would eventually regenerate into the same third incarnation or not. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Enemy Lines (audio story)}})


After Omega returned, a war devastated Gallifrey. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Enemy Lines (audio story)|Enemy Lines]]'') As Gallifrey faced its "darkest hour", Romana began to clear sections of the planet in order to make room to build [[Battle TARDIS]]es. She personally attended the decommissioning of Quadrigger [[Stoyn]]'s workstation. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Luna Romana (audio story)|Luna Romana]]'')
When a projection of this incarnation appeared through [[the Matrix]] to aid her predecessor, she went by the title of '''Trey'''. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Renaissance (audio story)}}, {{cs|Ascension (Gallifrey audio story)}})


=== War Queen of the Nine Gallifreys ===
== The fortune teller ==
Romana III of [[Romana III's Gallifrey|another Gallifrey]] became [[War Queen]] and "Mistress of the Nine Gallifreys" in preparation for [[War in Heaven|the upcoming war]]. She had a harder personality than [[Romana II]] and was less friendly towards the [[Eighth Doctor]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'') [[Mother (The Story So Far...)|Mother]] and [[Father (The Story So Far...)|Father]] saw that the [[Romana III's Gallifrey|War Queen's Homeworld]] was only a sheath echo believing itself to be the original. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Story So Far... (short story)|The Story So Far...]]'')
{{main|Romana (The Little Book of Fate)}}
By one account, at some point during a “forever war spreading through all of time and space”, [[Romana II]] regenerated into a woman with a young face but “the quiet self-possession of one much older”, who styled herself wearing a black [[beret]] and a waistcoat, with a scarf knotted at her throat.  


She dispatched [[Cavisadoratrelundar|Cavis]] and [[Gandarotethetledrax|Gandar]] to [[Avalon]] and eventually turned up herself to take possession of [[Compassion]] after Compassion transformed into a [[TARDIS]]. Romana believed Compassion could give the Time Lords a tactical advantage in the War. Instead, the Eighth Doctor and [[Fitz Kreiner|Fitz]] fled inside Compassion. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'')
This incarnation worked with [[Laszlo]] and other [[Tharil|Tharils]] to rescue [[refugee|refugees]] from the all-encompassing temporal conflict. This temporal refugee camp was disguised as a traveling [[carnival]], in which she posed as a '''fortune teller'''. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Little Book of Fate (short story)}})


As the War approached, the Edifice appeared in the skies of [[Romana III's Gallifrey]]. The structure created temporal pulses that began washing over the planet, causing civil disorder and mass superstition. In her 150th year as President, she was challenged by former President [[Greyjan the Sane|Greyjan]] in a [[Faction Paradox]] scheme to take over [[Gallifrey]] and re-write its history. The Eighth Doctor destroyed the planet to prevent this. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]'') [[Marnal]] later showed the amnesiac Eighth Doctor these events, where Romana and one of her soldiers, [[Mali]], tried to restore Gallifrey from one of the Nine Gallifreys. They discovered that Faction Paradox had wiped their Nine Gallifreys from history. Romana wept, knowing that her planet was doomed, and she sent [[K-9 Mark II|K-9]] into [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] to prevent him from destroying Gallifrey.
== The Lord Cardinal ==
{{main|Romana (Time Fracture)}}
[[File:Liv Spencer Romana.jpg|thumb|right|[[Lord Cardinal]] Romana during the events of [[Operation Time Fracture]] ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lord Romanadvoratrelundar (feature)}})]]Within the confines of a [[temporal anomaly]] known as the [[Time Fracture]], time began to repeat itself. At some point during this [[time loop]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Hello And Congratulations! (short story)}}) Romana, who was now a [[Lord Cardinal]], regenerated into an incarnation with blue eyes and short, blonde hair.  


Soon after, Faction Paradox [[skulltrooper]]s closed in on Romana and Mali and fired two shots. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'')
[[UNIT]] had speculated that this incarnation of Romana would make for a powerful ally should she survive Gallifrey’s destruction. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lord Romanadvoratrelundar (feature)}})
 
=== Death and regeneration ===
As an old woman, this incarnation visited [[Ponch]] on a [[planet]] orbiting the last [[sun]] before the universe's [[heat death]], where he lived among the last [[human]]s. She described it as a [[post-War universe|"godless age"]]. She hadn't seen the Doctor in centuries, and she didn't know where he was.
 
Romana disguised her [[TARDIS]] as the inn [[Janua Foris]] so she could tell Ponch about his past life as [[Huvan]] during her earlier incarnation's encounter with [[Valdemar]]. She used a [[psychic]] attack to convince [[Ofrin]] to let her keep telling the story, though she died in the snow before she could finish. Later, Ponch found her in her TARDIS in a [[Romana IV|younger body]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tomb of Valdemar (novel)|Tomb of Valdemar]]'')
 
=== Rewriting of the timeline ===
[[Irving Braxiatel]] later went back in time and stopped Romana II from [[regeneration|regenerating]], saying that Romana III had sent him to change her past to avert the conflict that devastated Gallifrey. Romana II then stepped down from the Presidency to ensure that that future would not take hold.
 
In the wake of Braxiatel's intervention, Romana II was uncertain whether she would eventually regenerate into the same third incarnation or not. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Enemy Lines (audio story)|Enemy Lines]]'') When she decided to run again for the Presidency during the first months of the [[Last Great Time War]], she promised to promptly regenerate if she received the public vote, as she was barred by law from serving another term in that incarnation. However, she was instead defeated by [[Valerian (Celestial Intervention)|Valerian]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Desperate Measures (audio story)|Desperate Measures]]'')
 
== Personality ==
As a projection, she appeared to have a sunny and perky disposition, and was prone to wanting to give people hugs. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Renaissance (audio story)|Renaissance]]'') Despite this, she could be manipulative and ruthless. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Renaissance (audio story)|Renaissance]]'', ''[[Intervention Earth (audio story)|Intervention Earth]]'') She was wistful about [[Romana I|her first incarnation]]'s naivety. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Luna Romana (audio story)|Luna Romana]]'')
 
== Appearance ==
As War Queen, Romana was petite, with black hair and a snub nose. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'') She had a fringe, green eyes, and a [[tattoo]] of the [[Prydonian Seal]] on her left [[ankle]]. She wore [[pearl]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'')
 
Romana told [[Ponch]] that she had copied her appearance from [[Miranda Pelham]], noting that she'd done it before and would probably do it again and that Miranda was "such a lovely-looking woman". Ponch ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tomb of Valdemar (novel)|Tomb of Valdemar]]'') and [[Cuthbert Simpson]] both regarded Romana as "beautiful"; ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Banquo Legacy (novel)|The Banquo Legacy]]'') the [[Eighth Doctor]] noted that she looked like [[the Doctor's mother|his mother]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ancestor Cell (novel)|The Ancestor Cell]]'')
 
In the last days before her death, this incarnation still had fierce eyes and thick chestnut hair, but her skin was pale white and covered with dark creases, and her movements were hindered by [[arthritis|arthritic pain]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Tomb of Valdemar (novel)|Tomb of Valdemar]]'')

== Behind the scenes ==
* Writers involved in the [[War in Heaven|future War]] arc of [[Eighth Doctor Adventures]] novels based Romana III's described appearance on that of the [[American]] silent film actress {{w|Louise Brooks}}, although upon meeting this incarnation for the first time the Eighth Doctor noted that she now looked worryingly like [[the Doctor's mother|his mother]].
