Spoilers are strongly policed here.

If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.
This page lists appearances of the Tremas Master played by Anthony Ainley in the order in which he experienced them. It relies on much speculation to fit semi-contradictory sources together, and should absolutely not be seen as representative of this wiki's general policy.
After the Thirteenth Master stole the body of Tremas, this new Master adopted a rather distinct persona. The process is sometimes referred to as a regeneration of sorts, even if Beevers still exists "underneath" as demonstrated by Dust Breeding. The full timeline of the Thirteenth Master can be found here.
