'''The If''' was the eleventh incarnation of a [[Gallifreyan (Interference)|Gallifreyan]].


'''I.M. Foreman''' was a Gallifreyan monk who lived on [[Gallifrey]] but was driven from the monastries following [[Rassilon]]'s intuitive revolution.
It represented the [[Time Lord]]s' links to their time machines, it possessed raw time-travel [[biodata]] that allowed it to perceive the [[past]] and [[future]] of anyone it met. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Interference - Book Two (novel)|Interference - Book Two]]'')

They formed [[I.M. Foreman's Travelling Show | I.M. Foreman's One-Species Nongenetically Engineered Travelling Show]] a show which is actually a complex space time event that could travel in time.
 
As a priest he had been given the gift of [[regeneration]] but in those days it was much less stable than compared to modern regeneration,

I.M. Foreman eventually arrived on [[Dust]] where his true nature was revealed to the [[Third Doctor]] and [[Sarah Jane Smith]].
 
I.M. Foreman's travelling show is made up of thirteen acts, which are all aspects / bodies of I.M. Foreman, one for each regeneration.
 
When [[The Remote]] attack the planet they let out Number 13, the most unstable of all his regenerations which tries to eat everything and absorb it into its own structure.
 
Eventually it blends itself with [[Magdalena]] and the planet Dust.
 
The other regeneration aspects are sent back through time, their travelling show exploding as it ends up back in the Dark Times just before the first I.M. Foreman finds then triggering a regeneration for all 12 aspects.
