The following is a '''list of incarnations and manifestations of the Doctor'''. The Doctor was a Time Lord and could regenerate ([[TV]]: ''[[The War Games]]'') therefore they had many incarnations over their lifetime. As well as many incarnations before their known existence as the [[First Doctor]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Brain of Morbius]]'', ''[[The Timeless Children]]'' and various manifestations of the Doctor also exist. ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'', [[TV]]:''[[The Ultimate Foe]]'')

The following is a '''list of incarnations and manifestations of [[the Doctor]]'''. For completion and usefulness' sake, incarnations of the Doctor, [[T:VALID|valid or invalid]], are gathered here.


=== The Doctor's early life ===
While [[the Doctor's species]] was contentious among stories, as the Doctor was depicted as a [[human]] in [[TV]]: ''[[The Evil of the Daleks (TV story)|The Evil of the Daleks]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Daleks (short story)|Doctor Who and the Daleks]]'', and ''[[The Monsters from Earth (short story)|The Monsters from Earth]]'', among other stories, a [[Time Lord]] in stories such as [[TV]]: ''[[The War Games (TV story)|The War Games]]'', ''[[The Time Warrior (TV story)|The Time Warrior]]'', etc, a [[hybrid]], a contentious addition from [[TV]]: ''[[Doctor Who (TV story)|Doctor Who]]'', or something else entirely, the Doctor was consistently shown to be capable of [[regeneration]], even among conflicting reports of how that process worked. As such, the Doctor had numerous incarnations over their lifetime, but the exact order and number was as contradictory as the Doctor's species itself.
According to several accounts the Doctor was the [[Timeless Child]] and had many lives before being forced to regenerate back into a child with no memory of their past and work with [[The Division]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Timeless Children]]'')

The following is a list of incarnations and manifestations of the Doctor. For completion and usefulness' sake, incarnations of the Doctor, valid or invalid, are gathered here.

While the Doctor's species was contentious among stories, as the Doctor was depicted as a human in TV: The Evil of the Daleks, PROSE: Doctor Who and the Daleks, and The Monsters from Earth, among other stories, a Time Lord in stories such as TV: The War Games, The Time Warrior, etc, a hybrid, a contentious addition from TV: Doctor Who, or something else entirely, the Doctor was consistently shown to be capable of regeneration, even among conflicting reports of how that process worked. As such, the Doctor had numerous incarnations over their lifetime, but the exact order and number was as contradictory as the Doctor's species itself.

The Doctor's early life[[edit] | [edit source]]

According to many accounts, there existed many incarnations of the Doctor prior to his so called "first" - while plentiful, they were also contradictory.
