Tegan lived on a [[cattle]] [[farm]] when she was young, describing it as being as far away from civilisation as it could be. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Psychodrome (audio story)|Psychodrome]]'') She tried [[ice cream]] when she was three and did not like it. ([[TV]]: ''[[Kinda (TV story)|Kinda]]'') She was living on a [[sheep]] farm owned by her father by the early [[1970s]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Logopolis (novelisation)|Logopolis]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Butcher of Brisbane (audio story)|The Butcher of Brisbane]]'') which her father let her drive around in a [[tractor]] when she was ten.

Tegan lived in the middle of nowhere on either a [[cattle station]] ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Psychodrome (audio story)}}) or a [[sheep]] [[farm]] owned by her father. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Logopolis (novelisation)}}) She tried [[ice cream]] when she was three and did not like it. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Kinda (TV story)}}) Her childhood was a lonely one and she escaped from the monotony of living on the farm by reading [[book]]s once she was done with her chores. One such book was ''[[Alice's Adventures in Wonderland]]'' by [[Lewis Carroll]], who became a hero of hers. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Doctor Who in Wonderland (novel)}})

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Dream Team (audio story)}})
[[File:Young Tegan.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan as she appeared as a child. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mawdryn Undead (TV story)|Mawdryn Undead]]'')]]


Tegan learnt how to dance the [[Charleston (dance)|Charleston]] for a school play. ([[TV]]: ''[[Black Orchid (TV story)|Black Orchid]]'') Not especially bright as a child, she often took the blame for others because she could not think up her own [[excuse]]s.

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Kamelion Empire (audio story)}})


At the age of thirteen, she made a deal with [[God]] that she would be good if He killed [[Tegan Jovanka's grandmother|her grandmother]], who died of a [[coronary thrombosis]] six weeks later. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The King of Terror (novel)|The King of Terror]]'') She had been ill for more than six years, during which Tegan's parents kept her away to avoid upsetting her at so young an age. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Warzone (audio story)|Warzone]]'') When she was fifteen, she broke her [[toe]] during track and gym, so Mike carried her books home for her.

According to one account, her mother died of [[cancer]] in [[March]] [[1975]]. Three years later when she turned 18 in [[1978]], Tegan legally changed her surname in honour of her mother, whose middle name was Jovanka. This deeply upset her father, who thought she did it to spite him. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Little Did She Know (short story)}})

After William had an affair with a twenty-year-old typist, Tegan moved away to the coast with Joy and went to [[boarding school]], where she studied for a few terms before being expelled. She ran away to [[Sydney]] and squatted in [[Kings Cross]] before her father found her and sent her to live with her aunt Vanessa in [[London]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The King of Terror (novel)|The King of Terror]]'') who at some point gave her a purse. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Devil in the Mist (audio story)|Devil in the Mist]]'') When she was eighteen, she was obsessed with [[music]], R-rated films and boys.

Bored of London and [[Brisbane]] ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Goth Opera (novel)}}) and believing that it would be "a glamorous something to do", Tegan decided to pursue a career as an [[air stewardess]] ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The King of Terror (novel)}}) and was hired by [[Air Australia]], ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Time-Flight (novelisation)}}) after which she bought herself a [[cassette player]] as a reward.

==== Joining the Doctor ====
==== Joining the Doctor ====
On [[28 February]] 1981, Vanessa agreed to drive Tegan to [[Heathrow Airport]] for her first day as an air stewardess. The car broke down in the [[London Borough of Barnet]], prompting Tegan to wander into [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] in search of help. The [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Adric]] took off without knowing that Tegan was aboard, taking her to [[Logopolis]]. After they told her of {{Ainley}}'s [[murder]] of Vanessa using his [[Tissue Compression Eliminator]], she helped them stop the Master's plans and the [[entropy]] he unleashed.
Whilst taking Tegan to [[Heathrow Airport]] for her first day of work on [[28 February]] [[1981]], Vanessa's car got a flat [[tyre]] near the [[Barnet Bypass]] and Tegan wandered into [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] in search of help, leading to her unwittingly being taken to [[Logopolis]] with the [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Adric]] and meeting [[Nyssa]]. She helped thwart [[Tremas Master|the Master]], whom she learnt had [[murder]]ed Vanessa, and witnessed [[Fourth Doctor's regeneration|the Doctor's regeneration]] at the [[Pharos Project]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Logopolis (TV story)}}) She recognised that the [[Fifth Doctor]] needed a "responsible adult" to help him recover and that she was the only real candidate next to Adric and Nyssa. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|When It Was Fun (short story)}})
 
Tegan helped get the Doctor to the TARDIS and, after jettisoning the [[Zero Room]] to avoid travelling to [[Event One]], set the ship to materialise at [[Castrovalva]] to help his recovery, unaware that the Master had already made the kidnapped Adric pre-program the journey. She was fascinated by the history of Castrovalva, but the Doctor realised that it was a forgery and part of a trap by the Master which they managed to escape, returning to the TARDIS with Adric and leaving the Master behind as Castrovalva collapsed. Tegan was disappointed to learn that she had not actually piloted the TARDIS. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Castrovalva (TV story)}})
 
Although the Doctor gave her [[Tegan Jovanka's TARDIS bedroom|a bedroom]] aboard the TARDIS, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Psychodrome (audio story)}}) Tegan wanted to be taken to Heathrow and continued to wear her uniform to remind the Doctor and herself of the fact. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|When It Was Fun (short story)}}) She assumed that regeneration was a common occurrence and wondered when the Doctor would next change and what he would look like. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fixing a Hole (short story)}})


After the Master was defeated, Tegan witnessed the Doctor's fall and [[regeneration]] into [[Fifth Doctor|his fifth incarnation]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Logopolis (TV story)|Logopolis]]'') Knowing that the new Doctor needed a "responsible adult" to help him recover, and seeing herself as the only real candidate next to Adric and Nyssa, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[When It Was Fun (short story)|When It Was Fun]]'') she helped get him back to the TARDIS and took off, going to [[Castrovalva]] where he recovered from his regeneration and they thwarted the Master again. ([[TV]]: ''[[Castrovalva (TV story)|Castrovalva]]'')
==== Aiming for Heathrow ====
{{Section stub|Further info from {{cs|Divided Loyalties (novel)}} and {{cs|Dream Team (audio story)}} needs to be added}}
Not yet having had time to start mourning for [[Vanessa (Logopolis)|Vanessa]], Tegan subconsciously blamed [[Fifth Doctor|the Doctor]] for her [[death]] and was mistrustful of [[Adric]] following the events on [[Castrovalva]]. Her perceptions of her [[companion]]s created [[Rickett|Professor Rickett]], [[Magpie (Psychodrome)|Magpie]] and [[Perditia]] after [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] landed in a [[psychodrome]] and her [[memory|memories]] of a [[corroboree]] she watched when she was young created a [[tribe]] of [[warrior]]s. The four of them were able to start resolving their differences and work together to defeat [[Magus (Psychodrome)|King Magus]] and escape, after which she asked to be taken to [[Heathrow Airport|Heathrow]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Psychodrome (audio story)}})


Although the Doctor gave her [[Tegan Jovanka's TARDIS key|a bedroom]] aboard the TARDIS, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Psychodrome (audio story)|Psychodrome]]'') Tegan wanted to be taken to Heathrow and continued to wear her uniform to remind the Doctor and herself of the fact. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[When It Was Fun (short story)|When It Was Fun]]'')
Three days after [[Logopolis]], the TARDIS landed itself on [[Planet (Cold Fusion)|a human colony]] where Tegan and Nyssa, after booking rooms at a [[hotel]] for the four travellers, met [[Chris Cwej]], whose [[stereotype|stereotypical]] depiction of an [[Australia]]n offended Tegan. She was freed by the Doctor and [[Patience]] after she was [[arrest]]ed by the [[Adjudicator]]s for consorting with [[alien]]s and worked with Nyssa and Chris to keep [[Adam (Cold Fusion)|Adam]] from destroying the [[Scientifica]] with a [[fusion bomb]] which turned out to have been defused. She was eventually reunited with Adric and Nyssa ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Cold Fusion (novel)}}) and found the Doctor unconscious, having been knocked out by [[Roz Forrester]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Cold Fusion (audio story)}})


==== Attempts to return to Heathrow ====
According to one account, the TARDIS crew went to a [[supermarket]] to buy [[food]] and encountered [[Tremas Master|the Master]]. Tegan, the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa were trapped, but the Doctor freed them with [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver|his sonic screwdriver]] and they managed to escape the supermarket, which the Master had turned into a [[maze]], and return to the TARDIS where the Doctor rested in the [[Zero Room]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Dr. Fifth (novel)}}) Other accounts indicated that the Master remained trapped in [[Castrovalva]] until after Adric's [[death]] ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time-Flight (TV story)}}; [[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Smoke and Mirrors (audio story)}}) and that the Zero Room remained lost. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Mawdryn Undead (TV story)}}; [[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Zaltys (audio story)}})
After leaving Castrovalva, the TARDIS materialised on the [[Psychodrome]] where she was faced with her childhood [[nightmare]] about Aboriginal dancing. She also learnt that she had a subconscious grudge against the Doctor due to associating him with Vanessa's death. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Psychodrome (audio story)|Psychodrome]]'')  


Three days after Logopolis, they landed on [[Scientifica]] where she met [[Chris Cwej]], whose fake Australian accent annoyed her, calling it [[racism|racist]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cold Fusion (novel)|Cold Fusion]]'')  
Tegan tried out the Doctor's [[dream machine (On the Planet Isopterus)|dream machine]] and saw herself in a field of fragrant [[flower]]s. Shortly after, the TARDIS landed on [[Isopterus]] where [[termite (On the Planet Isopterus)|termites]] captured Tegan, the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa to be eaten in the future, but they managed to escape with the other captives thanks to the Doctor using his dream machine to create images of food to distract the termites. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|On the Planet Isopterus (comic story)}})


They later landed on [[Isopterus]] where they faced giant [[termite]]s ([[COMIC]]: ''[[On the Planet Isopterus (comic story)|On the Planet Isopterus]]'') and on [[1950s]] Earth, where she told [[Edward Grainger]] about Australia. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Born (short story)|First Born]]'')
An attempt to get to Heathrow resulted in the TARDIS landing in [[Eastern Europe]] in the [[11th century]] where the three travellers became trapped in a [[town]] by a series of [[Mongol]] raids. Whilst the Doctor and Adric tried to make peace, Tegan and Nyssa were made to sew patches of [[leather]] together to make [[armour]] for the men of the town and briefly wondered if time had been changed. Adric later helped [[Mang]] make [[longbow]]s to fight the Mongols and the townspeople considered relocating to [[Wales]] after Tegan mentioned it. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Immortals (short story)}})


On [[Monarch (Four to Doomsday)|Monarch]]'s [[Monarch's ship|ship]], Tegan sketched a man and woman for him which he used for the [[Minister of Enlightenment]] and the [[Minister of Persuasion]]'s humanoid forms. The Doctor gave her [[Tegan Jovanka's TARDIS key|a TARDIS key]] in the event that she was separated from the others. ([[TV]]: ''[[Four to Doomsday (TV story)|Four to Doomsday]]'')  
When strange [[equation]]s appeared on the [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|TARDIS console]], Tegan left to look around a [[1950s]] [[maternity ward]] and met [[Edward Grainger]], comforting him when he told her how worried he was for his son, [[John Grainger|John]]. The TARDIS had disappeared by the time that she headed back and waited until her companions finally returned for her. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|First Born (short story)}})


After the TARDIS landed on [[Deva Loka]], Tegan accidentally fell asleep at the place of shared [[dream]]s, allowing the [[Mara]] to enter her mind and possess her until it left her for [[Aris]], a [[Kinda]], after which it was seemingly destroyed using [[mirror]]s. ([[TV]]: ''[[Kinda (TV story)|Kinda]]'')
The Doctor detected an unusual [[energy]] emission on [[planet (The Ingenious Gentleman Adric of Alzarius)|a planet]] and, in attempting to identify it, accidentally damaged the last of the [[Sanchopan Machine]]s. This resulted in a [[dragon]] attack on a village from which the machine saved Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa by bringing them to its [[cavern]] where they were later joined by Adric and [[Keeyoht|Sir Keeyoht]], whom Tegan recognised as being based on the [[Fourth Doctor]]. After the Doctor deactivated the machine, its creations disappeared and the four travellers left. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Ingenious Gentleman Adric of Alzarius (audio story)}})


[[File:Tegan-Mara.jpg|left|thumb|Tegan under the influence of the [[Mara]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Kinda (TV story)|Kinda]]'')]]
The Doctor managed to pilot the TARDIS to [[1981]], but they instead materialised on board [[Monarch (Four to Doomsday)|Monarch]]'s [[Monarch's ship|ship]] where Tegan sketched a drawing of a fashionable man and woman, on which [[Minister of Persuasion|Persuasion]] and [[Minister of Enlightenment|Enlightenment]] went on to base their [[humanoid]] forms. She met [[Kurkutji]], whose [[dialect]] she was able to speak, and attempted to fly away in the TARDIS to avoid becoming an [[android]], but she did not cover much distance and was eventually joined by the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa. With the [[time curve indicator]] repaired by Nyssa, the Doctor believed that he could get Tegan home. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Four to Doomsday (TV story)}})
Another attempt to get Tegan to Heathrow resulted in the TARDIS landing in [[1666]] [[London]] where they faced the [[Terileptil]]s, one of whom she hit with a [[gun]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Visitation (TV story)|The Visitation]]'')  


After escaping the [[Great Fire of London]], the [[Celestial Toymaker]] attempted to turn them against one another, trying to do so with Tegan by showing her [[William Jovanka|her father]]'s funeral. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Divided Loyalties (novel)|Divided Loyalties]]'')  
[[File:Tegan-Mara.jpg|left|thumb|Tegan under the influence of the [[Mara]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Kinda (TV story)}})]]
After both Nyssa and the Doctor collapsed, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Secrets of Telos (audio story)}}) Tegan, the Doctor and Adric admired [[Deva Loka]] whilst Nyssa slept. Tegan fell asleep at the [[Place of Great Dreamings]] where the [[Mara]] entered her mind, disturbing her with visions until she agreed that it could use her body, and she woke up two days later once the Mara had moved into [[Aris]]. She helped defeat the creature with [[mirror]]s, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Kinda (TV story)}}) but part of it remained inside her head. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Snakedance (TV story)}})


In the [[11th century]], [[U'thai|Czar U'thai]] and his warriors tried to kidnap a [[Europe]]an village's women, as well as Tegan. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Immortals (short story)|The Immortals]]'')
Tegan found the prospect of leaving the TARDIS more difficult than she believed and gave Nyssa an emotional farewell, but the TARDIS instead landed in [[1666]] where the travellers met [[Richard Mace]] and found [[alien]] artefacts. She and Adric were captured by the [[Terileptil]]s, but she managed to get Adric out before a [[control bracelet]] was put on her and she was made to assist them in wiping out humanity with [[plague]]. The Doctor managed to remove the bracelet's [[power pack]] and Tegan regained control, hitting a Terileptil with a [[gun]] before the [[Great Fire of London]] began. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Visitation (TV story)}})


She once argued with Adric and the Doctor when the [[helmic regulator]] had been reprogrammed. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Toy (audio story)|The Toy]]'')  
After escaping the Great Fire of London, the [[Celestial Toymaker]] attempted to turn them against one another, trying to do so with Tegan by showing her [[William Jovanka|her father]]'s funeral. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Divided Loyalties (novel)}})


The Doctor took her and her friends to [[Gallius Ultima]] to learn more astronomy. She went with the Doctor to the [[Larger Magellanic Cloud]] to find out what happened to a previous mission there. She was taken by one of the [[Star Man|Star Men]]. Trying to escape, she went through a portal and encountered [[Lom (The Star Men)|Lom]] who told her what happened there. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Star Men (audio story)|The Star Men]]'')  
Tegan was still distressed by the events on Deva Loka when the TARDIS materialised in [[9th century]] [[Iceland]] where she and Nyssa were welcomed by [[Revna Ulfsdottir]], whose speculation Tegan went along with by claiming that she was a beaten wife [[exile]]d with her sister for [[adultery]]. She helped Revna and her daughters dig and hid with [[Inga Kundsdottir]] when they awoke the [[Ice Warrior]]s, from whom they escaped in their own ship thanks to Adric. After the Ice Warriors were encased in [[lava]], Tegan spoke with the morose Doctor about the possibility of changing the future just before he was [[temporal dislocation|temporally dislocated]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|God of War (audio story)}})


On another attempt to get back to Heathrow, the TARDIS lost power and they landed in [[1864]] in a gentlemen's club. She didn't like the sexism of the clubs. After being captured and placed near a set of explosives, she used knowledge gained from her cousins to disarm them. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Contingency Club (audio story)|The Contingency Club]]'')  
==== Deciding to stay ====
When the Doctor took his companions to [[Gallius Ultima|Gallius U]] to help Adric learn to fly the TARDIS, Tegan was more interested in the [[observation deck]] than learning about [[astronomy]] and was arrested, but she and the Doctor earnt [[Kala Tace]]'s trust and went with [[Darren Fell|General Darren Fell]] in the ''[[Carl Sagan (ship)|Carl Sagan]]'' to investigate the attack on the ''[[Johannes Kepler (ship)|Johannes Kepler]]''. She was captured by [[Rovus]] and used as bait for the crew of the ''Sagan'' before escaping with [[Nomar]] to [[Heliopan]], where they were soon joined by Nyssa. The trio were saved by Adric and [[Autumn Tace]] and travelled through a [[rift]] back to their universe, closing it behind them to prevent a [[Keltin]] invasion, but Autumn was killed. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Star Men (audio story)}})


When Tegan asked Adric to pilot the TARDIS to Heathrow, she disappeared from the console room shortly after Adric did. [[Clarimonde]] interrogated her, mistaking her for [[Jo Grant]]. Tegan realised that Clarimonde was a vampire, and managed to escape by falling out of an airlock. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Zaltys (audio story)|Zaltys]]'')  
The Doctor made another attempt to pilot the TARDIS to [[Heathrow Airport|Heathrow]], although Nyssa was no longer sure that Tegan still wanted to leave, but they instead arrived in the [[Contingency Club]] in [[1864]] when the TARDIS shut down to avoid triggering the [[Red Queen]]'s [[spaceship]]'s [[hyperspace jump]]. Tegan and the Doctor were expelled by the [[Edward (The Contingency Club)|Edwards]] before meeting [[George Augustus]], who later took Tegan captive and tied her in the [[cellar]] of the club with Nyssa and several [[explosive]]s. She was able to render them useless thanks to knowledge gained from her cousins and got a dying Edward to [[evacuation|evacuate]] the building, after which it collapsed and the TARDIS was buried, necessitating an extended stay in [[19th century]] [[London]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Contingency Club (audio story)}})


The first historical figure that Tegan met during her travels was [[Harry Houdini]], whom the Master had convinced that the Doctor was evil. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Smoke and Mirrors (audio story)|Smoke and Mirrors]]'')
Having given up on the Doctor's ability to get her back to Heathrow, Tegan persuaded Adric to fly the TARDIS himself by playing on his desire to be alone with the Doctor again. The Doctor and Nyssa's repairs to the ship led to Adric being transported to [[Zaltys]] and an attempt to locate him using the [[telepathic circuits]] caused Tegan to be transported aboard the ''[[Exemplar]]'' because of the telepathic conversation between [[Clarimonde]] and [[Perrault]]. She managed to escape the ''Exemplar'' with [[Lusca]], who died to protect her from [[Sable]] and whom she mourned upon returning to the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Zaltys (audio story)}})


==== Enjoying her travels ====
Tegan was unhappy when the Doctor chose to answer a [[psionic beam]] rather than take her to Heathrow, but was excited to meet [[Harry Houdini]] and admitted as much when Nyssa asked about her enjoying her adventures. She, Adric and Nyssa stood watch when the Doctor and Houdini inspected an [[Ovid Sphere]] and accidentally wandered into a [[menagerie]] where they were separated, with Nyssa being [[hypnosis|hypnotised]] by [[Tremas Master|the Master]] to help capture Tegan. The trio managed to escape after Tegan broke a [[lamp]] projecting the Master into a mirror, after which Tegan helped the Doctor soothe the Ovid Sphere with calming thoughts. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Smoke and Mirrors (audio story)}})
After some time travelling, Tegan confessed to Adric that she had begun to enjoy travelling in the TARDIS and visited [[Cicero Prime]] where she had to pretend to be an assassin. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Kingdom of Lies (audio story)|Kingdom of Lies]]'')  


They visited [[Yorkshire]], in the [[17th century]] where she and the Doctor discovered a sacrificial site. She stayed behind with the Doctor when he sent Nyssa and Adric into the future. She helped to explore the catacombs. [[Sabaoth]] sent her consciousness into the future. The Doctor made Sabaoth think she was dead by placing her in a cryotube to heal her. He took her out later, and she helped [[Leanne]] and the Doctor defeat Sabaoth. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Ghost Walk (audio story)|Ghost Walk]]'')  
Tegan and Adric were arrested in [[Cardenas]] and, whilst awaiting an audience with [[Miranda (Kingdom of Lies)|Miranda, Duchess of Cardenas]], Tegan admitted that she was enjoying her adventures in the TARDIS. [[Zaina]] ensured that the Duchess hired the two of them as her [[bodyguard]]s and they worked to protect her from [[the Scorpion]] and his [[apprentice]], initially unaware that they were the Doctor and Nyssa. Eventually, the real Scorpion arrived and Tegan helped distract her whilst the Doctor laid a trap which resulted in the Scorpion leaving [[Cicero Prime]] with the belief that she had killed the Duchess. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Kingdom of Lies (audio story)}})


Next they went to [[Argentia]] where the Doctor wanted to get crystals for his sonic screwdriver. She helped [[Joe Mazzini]] after people his family were murdered. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Serpent in the Silver Mask (audio story)|Serpent in the Silver Mask]]'')  
Responding to a [[distress call]], the TARDIS landed in the [[catacombs (Ghost Walk)|catacombs]] beneath [[city (Ghost Walk)|a city]] on [[17th century]] Earth and Tegan remained with the Doctor when he attempted to send her, Adric and Nyssa to the future to escape from [[Sabaoth]]. Sabaoth used the TARDIS's telepathic circuits and her own energy to send her forward in time to serve as his anchor, resulting in her briefly [[possession|possessing]] [[Katya (Ghost Walk)|Katya]] in the [[1980s]] before returning and being placed in a [[stasis chamber]] by the Doctor for her protection. He eventually woke her up some time after recovering Adric and Nyssa to help [[Leanne (Ghost Walk)|Leanne]] defeat Sabaoth in the [[21st century]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Ghost Walk (audio story)}})


Tegan, Adric and Nyssa were kidnapped by [[Adam Mitchell]] for the Master, but they were saved by various incarnations of the Doctor. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[In Their Nature (comic story)|In Their Night]]'', ''[[Endgame (POT comic story)|Endgame]]'')
The Doctor took his companions to [[Argentia]] in search of [[diothanine crystal]]s and arrived at [[Carlo Mazzini]]'s [[funeral]], where Tegan and [[Joe Mazzini]] took a liking to one another. She was attacked by a [[Sugandian Normic]] whilst investigating [[Angelo Mazzini]]'s murder and came to suspect Joe, but her speculation led the Doctor to deduce that [[time travel]] was involved and that he was definitely innocent. After the future Angelo died and [[Sofia Cozzi]] was arrested, Tegan declined to stay with Joe, an offer which she was tempted by given that she had feelings for him and he was able to take her back to Heathrow, as her friends needed her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Serpent in the Silver Mask (audio story)}})


Having already admitted to Adric that she was starting to enjoy their adventures, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Kingdom of Lies (audio story)|Kingdom of Lies]]'') Tegan decided that she wanted to stay with the crew for a while and told the Doctor not to continue trying to take her to Heathrow. She strove to prove the Doctor innocent after he was accused of murder at [[Cranleigh Hall]] on [[11 June]], [[1925]], prior to which she had enjoyed the Cranleighs' party and showed talent at dancing the [[Charleston (dance)|Charleston]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Black Orchid (TV story)|Black Orchid]]'')

Tegan told the Doctor that she wanted to stay with him, Adric and Nyssa for a while and that he did not need to continue trying to get her to [[Heathrow Airport|Heathrow]], ([[TV]]: {{cs|Black Orchid (TV story)}}) having already passed on an opportunity to get there with [[Joe Mazzini]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Serpent in the Silver Mask (audio story)}}) She continued to wear her uniform, however, as she felt that she knew what her role was whilst she was wearing it: somebody who helped others. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Merfolk Murders (audio story)}})


The crew celebrated [[Christmas]] in the TARDIS ([[PROSE]]: ''[[In the TARDIS: Christmas Day (short story)|In the TARDIS: Christmas Day]]'') and arrived on [[Lemaria]] during the celebration of another [[holiday]], [[Freedom Day]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Constant Doctor (short story)|The Constant Doctor]]'')
Tegan enjoyed her time in [[1925]], watching the Doctor play [[cricket]] and attending a fancy dress [[party]] at [[Cranleigh Hall]] where she danced with [[Robert Muir|Sir Robert Muir]] and demonstrated her talent at dancing the [[Charleston (dance)|Charleston]]. She stood up for the Doctor when he was accused of attacking [[Ann Talbot]] and she and the crew stayed for [[George Cranleigh]]'s [[funeral]], after which they were gifted the fancy dress costumes that the Cranleighs' had leant them. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Black Orchid (TV story)}})


They encountered the [[Dar Trader]]s on [[Battlefield (The Darkening Eye)|Battlefield]], where Tegan cradled Nyssa's body during her three minutes of death. Unbeknownst to Tegan, the Traders had foretold Adric's death. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Darkening Eye (audio story)|The Darkening Eye]]'')  
The Doctor took his [[companion]]s to [[planet (Hearts of Stone)|a planet without intelligent life]] for four days to relax and Tegan spent some time sunbathing. She wondered if the [[statue]]s they found would come to life and hunt them down, which Adric thought was stupid, and they left after Adric tried to join the statues. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Hearts of Stone (short story)}})


Tegan helped to defeat the [[I Predator]] in 1981. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Iterations of I (audio story)|Iterations of I]]'')
The TARDIS crew celebrated [[Christmas]] in the TARDIS and Tegan drank several bottles of [[Foster's Lager|Fosters]]. She refused to eat the [[Christmas pudding]] that the Doctor found in a [[cupboard]] and kicked over the one that Adric made using [[Block Transfer Computation]] when he refused to share it, after which Nyssa stuffed the pudding up Tegan's nose. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|In the TARDIS: Christmas Day (short story)}})


The crew landed on [[Planet (Hearts of Stone)|a planet]] of [[forest]]s and [[statue]]s where she argued with Adric, whom a [[gestalt]] entity prematurely mourned. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Hearts of Stone (short story)|Hearts of Stone]]'')  
Tegan, the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa landed on a [[Rutan weapon test field|weapon test field]] where they were captured by the [[Rutan]]s, who suspected them of being [[Sontaran]] [[spy|spies]]. After escaping, they were captured by the Sontarans and released due to them not being considered a threat by [[Strock|Commander Strock]]. They returned to the TARDIS where Tegan, Adric and Nyssa were kidnapped by [[Adam Mitchell]], ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|In Their Nature (comic story)}}) but they were eventually saved by several of [[the Doctor]]'s [[incarnation]]s. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Endgame (POT comic story)}})


During a trip to [[2526]], she found herself facing the [[Neomorph]] [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] for the first time. Adric lost his life when a ship crashed into Earth and Tegan was furious at the Doctor's refusal to go back in time and rescue him. ([[TV]]: ''[[Earthshock (TV story)|Earthshock]]'')
The crew arrived on [[Lemaria]] during the celebration of [[Freedom Day]] and watched a reenactment of how the [[First Doctor]] and [[Susan Foreman]] saved the planet, making Tegan aware for the first time that the Doctor had a family. They eventually realised that the actor playing the Doctor was [[Twelfth Doctor|his twelfth incarnation]], who had come to thwart the [[Megrati]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Constant Doctor (short story)}})
 
They encountered the [[Dar Trader]]s on [[Battlefield (The Darkening Eye)|Battlefield]], where Tegan cradled Nyssa's body during her three minutes of death. Unbeknownst to Tegan, the Traders had foretold Adric's death. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Darkening Eye (audio story)}})
 
Adric accused Tegan of being responsible for reprogramming the [[helmic regulator]], but she denied it and argued with him and the Doctor. She was speechless when they found Nyssa in a [[telepathy|telepathic]] fight with [[the Master]] and went back to arguing with Adric after Nyssa recovered. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Toy (audio story)}})
 
Although Tegan was enjoying her adventures in the TARDIS, Adric and Nyssa decided to try to materialise at Heathrow as a test, but they instead landed on [[Fleming's Island]] in [[1981]] where the ship fell off of a [[cliff]] after they left it. She looked after Nyssa after she had a psychic shock in the Fleming mansion and helped investigate after the ''i'' were released from the [[computer]]s and [[i Predator|a predator]] came after them. She memorised a [[map]] which allowed her to lead the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa to the fallen TARDIS, outside of which the ''i'' captured the predator in a mathematical whirlpool which Tegan could not understand. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Iterations of I (audio story)}})
 
Tegan and Nyssa got the Doctor to make amends with Adric after the two argued about returning to [[E-Space]] and came across the [[skeleton]] of a [[dinosaur]], which Tegan did not believe could have been killed by a [[meteor]]. The Doctor flew the TARDIS to find the creators of [[Cyberman android|androids]] that they encountered and arrived on [[Briggs (Earthshock)|Briggs]]'s [[Briggs's freighter|freighter]] where they fought the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] and Tegan risked her life to shoot one of them. She watched from the TARDIS as the freighter warped through [[time]] on a collision course with Adric still aboard, crashing into Earth and causing the extinction of the dinosaurs. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TV story)}})

=== Left behind ===
Finally arriving at [[Heathrow Airport]], albeit it in [[1982]], Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa again thwarted the Master, after which the Doctor and Nyssa dematerialised in the TARDIS without Tegan. She ran out of the airport too late to catch them and was upset at having been left behind. ([[TV]]: ''[[Time-Flight (TV story)|Time-Flight]]'')
Tegan felt that the Doctor was forgetting about Adric's death and asked him to go back and save him, but he refused and instead attempted to pilot the TARDIS to the [[Great Exhibition]] to cheer himself, Tegan and Nyssa up. They instead landed at [[1980s]] [[Heathrow Airport|Heathrow]] due to feedback from a [[Concorde]] being moved back in time by [[Tremas Master|the Master]] and agreed to help investigate its disappearance, leading them to the [[Jurassic]] where Tegan got everybody back onto the [[aeroplane]] following the Master's defeat. Back at Heathrow, the Doctor and Nyssa left in the TARDIS to avoid having to explain themselves to [[Sheard]], leaving Tegan behind. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Time-Flight (TV story)}})


Tegan began her career as an air stewardess ([[TV]]: ''[[Arc of Infinity (TV story)|Arc of Infinity]]'') and once had to deal with a passenger on a flight to [[Brisbane]] who insisted on cutting his toenails in the plane. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Perils of Nellie Bly (audio story)|The Perils of Nellie Bly]]'') After assaulting an unruly passenger mid-flight during her first year, she was fired.

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Perils of Nellie Bly (audio story)}}) After assaulting an unruly passenger mid-flight during her first year, she was fired. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)}}) She had [[nightmare]]s about [[snake]]s and was depressed after losing her job, realising that she had felt alive travelling in the TARDIS and helping people. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fear of the Dark (novel)}})


After losing her job, Tegan caught the attention of the [[android]] [[Kylex-12]], who identified her as a time traveller. The two began a romantic relationship, but Tegan found him over-attentive and broke up with him just as he prepared to propose to her. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)|The Waters of Amsterdam]]'')

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)}}) She cut all ties, had a haircut and went to travel the world on her own. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fear of the Dark (novel)}})
 
Tegan visited her grandfather, [[Andrew Verney]], just before he moved house and promised that she would see him again once she returned from visiting [[Amsterdam]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Deep Blue (novel)}}) Verney sent her several [[letter]]s in which he described his new home of [[Little Hodcombe]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Awakening (novelisation)}})

In [[January]] [[1983]], Tegan went to [[Amsterdam]] to visit her cousin [[Colin Frazer]], only to find that he had disappeared, having been captured by [[Omega]] to lure Tegan to him. He used Tegan as leverage in his plan to create a new body for himself using the Doctor. Once the process was done and had begun to fail, Tegan reunited with the Doctor and Nyssa and watched Omega's defeat before he could revert to anti-matter and destroy Earth.

Tegan was approached by Kyle, whom she rebuffed before he directed her and the Doctor to a [[Rembrandt van Rijn]] exhibit showcasing drawings of [[spacecraft]]. At the museum, they encountered the [[Nix (species)|Nix]] and became aware of [[Teldek]], later learning of Kyle's connection to her. After Teldek's defeat, Kyle accepted that Tegan did not love him and decided to continue living in the hope that he could find someone who would. Before Tegan and Nyssa entered the TARDIS, the Doctor went on a number of adventures without them, returning a few days later for them. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)|The Waters of Amsterdam]]'') She was annoyed to find that her things had been put in storage. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Elite (audio story)|The Elite]]'')

In the Doctor's absence, Tegan stayed in Colin's room at the [[hostel]] with Nyssa and explored the city with her, introducing her to [[chocolate]]. When he returned for them, Tegan was annoyed to find that her things had been put in storage ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Elite (audio story)}}) and wondered how long her companions had been travelling without her, feeling slightly envious of their ability to work together. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fear of the Dark (novel)}})


==== Travelling by choice ====
==== Travelling by choice ====
After leaving Amsterdam, the Doctor took Tegan and Nyssa to [[Florana]] where they came across a [[Dalek]] known as the [[High Priest (The Elite)|High Priest]] and Tegan led a band of rebels in what she had wanted to be a bloodless revolution. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Elite (audio story)|The Elite]]'') To recover after Florana, the trio stayed in [[Brisbane]] for several days before Tegan found that [[Mike Bretherton]] had disappeared. They managed to find him, turned into an insect, and Tegan told him that she had loved him. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Hexagora (audio story)|Hexagora]]'')

According to one account, on Tegan's first morning back in the ship, [[The Dark (Fear of the Dark)|the Dark]] influenced Nyssa and the Doctor used the [[telepathic circuits]] to pilot the TARDIS to [[Akoshemon]]'s [[Akoshemon's moon|moon]] where the Dark was trapped. The Doctor later decided that it was time that Tegan and Nyssa learn how to read the TARDIS [[star chart]]s, but they asked to do it in the morning and [[sleep|slept]] that night with their lights on as a result of their experience on Akoshemon's moon. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fear of the Dark (novel)}})
 
According to another account, Tegan's first adventure after rejoining the Doctor and Nyssa was to [[Florana]], as the Doctor confided in Nyssa that he was concerned that Tegan's return would bring an end to the peace and quiet that they had enjoyed in her absence. There, Tegan and Nyssa were [[arrest]]ed on suspicion of being [[terrorism|terrorists]] and separated by intellect, with Tegan being sent to work in the [[factory|factories]] but being rescued by [[Garthak]] and his rebels. She helped the rebels in what she wanted to be a bloodless [[revolution]] and, following the deaths of the [[High Priest of Power]] and [[Thane (The Elite)|Father Thane]], suggested that the TARDIS's next destination be [[Brisbane]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Elite (audio story)}})
 
Tegan caught up with those that she knew in Brisbane and learnt that [[Mike Bretherton]] had mysteriously disappeared, leading her to insist that the Doctor and Nyssa help her investigate. Their search led them to follow the trace of two [[space pod]]s to [[Lupara]], where she found [[Zax|Sergeant Zax]] using Mike's body whilst Mike was trapped in Zax's [[Hexagoran]] form. She was uncomfortable with Mike's appearance, but was able to work with him and, after he returned to his body, she promised to visit him when she was back on Earth. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Hexagora (audio story)}})
 
Following a message received from [[Anahita|Queen Anahita]], Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa travelled to the [[Imperial City]] in the [[Archipelago of Sirius]] and were initially mistaken for off-world guests of [[Siris]]'s [[birthday]] celebrations. Queen Anahita covered for Tegan by claiming that she was her new [[servant]] after the Doctor and Nyssa were arrested, after which Tegan rescued the Doctor by kissing a [[guard]] with a [[paralysing agent]] and attempted to take the Doctor's copy of ''[[The Trick of Darkness]]'' to Anahita as he requested. Following the defeats of [[Byzan]] and [[Albis]], Tegan confided in Nyssa that she had considered leaving the TARDIS and was happy when Nyssa confirmed that she planned on staying as well. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Children of Seth (audio story)}})
 
Not long after Tegan returned to the TARDIS, the Doctor was taken over by his [[temporal dislocation|temporally dislocated]] past self and they materialised on [[Hopper (The Tomb of the Cybermen)|Captain Hopper]]'s [[Hopper's rocket|rocket]]. The rocket was attacked by [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] and they escaped with [[Parry|Professor Parry]] and [[Morton (Secrets of Telos)|Morton]] to [[Telos Minor]] where Tegan, Nyssa and Morton entered a cyber-factory to escape from [[Vansom|Professor Vansom]]'s cyber-animals. After Vansom died and the factory was destroyed, Tegan and Nyssa gave in and told the Doctor about Adric's death, despite Nyssa having originally advised against it, and he was pulled away by further time slippage. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Secrets of Telos (audio story)}})
 
A distress signal from [[Threll]] called the TARDIS to [[Aronassus 49]] and Tegan and the Doctor travelled across the [[desert]] to [[Prime City]] whilst Nyssa remained behind in the ship. They agreed to help with the apparently malfunctioning [[food synthesiser]]s and found that a [[Migrator]] was consuming all of the food, so they placed it in [[suspended animation]] and took it in the TARDIS to an uninhabited world. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Danger Down Below (short story)}})
 
Tegan and Nyssa became lost in a thunderstorm after leaving the TARDIS to explore and were captured by [[pirate]]s who wanted to steal the [[North Tribe]]'s treasures. They were rescued by the Doctor, as were several captives from the tribe, and they left [[planet (The God Machine)|the planet]], after which the tribe chose to get [[revenge]] on the pirates. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The God Machine (short story)}})
 
A [[Voorvolika]] attacked the TARDIS to feed on its energy and knocked out Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa. When they awoke, they realised what they were facing by visiting the [[observation room]] and Tegan collapsed, having trouble focusing. The Doctor left the ship and forced the Voorvolika into suspended animation by using its energy to power the TARDIS. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Armageddon Chrysalis (short story)}})
 
Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa travelled to [[Planet 435]] in [[2330]] and found bodies in cold storage which they realised were being controlled by [[Carnak]] with metallic implants. The trio were locked up, but Tegan and Nyssa managed to get back to the TARDIS with the Doctor on a trolley whilst he used his telepathic abilities to stop Carnak. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Haven (short story)}})
 
The Doctor contracted [[Ponassan fever]] and Tegan carried him back to the TARDIS where she and Nyssa watched over him as he recovered. After he woke up, Tegan told him that they thought that they had lost him. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Penalty (short story)}})
 
Tegan had the Doctor fly the TARDIS to [[Heathrow Airport]] so that she could see [[Julie Harris]] and realised that something was wrong when Julie ignored her. The trio followed her and found that she had been replaced with an [[android]] to assist [[The Master (Terror of the Autons)|the Master]] in taking [[hypnosis|hypnotised]] members of [[government]] and [[security]] advisers through a rift at the [[Bermuda Triangle]] and replacing them too. Tegan resisted the Master's hypnosis and she, the Doctor and Nyssa got everybody into the TARDIS and back to Heathrow. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Night Flight to Nowhere (short story)}})
 
The TARDIS team encountered [[dinosaur]]s and a number of other creatures in the [[Sahara Desert]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Great Snakes! (short story)|Great Snakes!]]'') the TARDIS, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Crocs! (short story)|Crocs!]]'', ''[['Gators (short story)|'Gators]]'', ''[[Caimans and Gavials (short story)|Caimans and Gavials]]'', ''[[The Great Irish Elk (short story)|The Great Irish Elk]]'', ''[[Horses Through the Ages (short story)|Horses Through the Ages]]'') [[Siberia]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Woolly Mammoth (short story)|Woolly Mammoth]]'') [[Kenya]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Elephant Hunt (short story)|Elephant Hunt]]'', ''[[Face to Face with Early Man (short story)|Face to Face with Early Man]]'', ''[[On Safari (short story)|On Safari]]'', ''[[Elephant Dance (short story)|Elephant Dance]]'') [[Los Angeles]] during the [[Ice Age]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Sabre-toothed Tiger (short story)|Sabre-toothed Tiger]]'', ''[[The Great Irish Elk (short story)|The Great Irish Elk]]'') [[Loch Ness]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Loch Ness Monster (short story)|The Loch Ness Monster]]'') and [[Dorset]], where they witnessed [[Mary Anning]]'s discovery of the ''[[Ichthyosaurus]]''. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Amazing Fossil Fish (short story)|Amazing Fossil Fish]]'')
 
Whilst Tegan was once again arguing with the Doctor about going back to save [[Adric]], the TARDIS landed on [[Hardy Base]] and she had to amuse herself as the Doctor and Nyssa analysed a [[cyclotron]]. She briefly came under the control of [[Catherine (Lackaday Express)|Catherine]], whose consciousness was trapped in the machine and whom the Doctor rescued. The three travellers then returned her to Earth. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lackaday Express (short story)}})
 
In [[1896]], Tegan attempted to change time slightly, but events remained unchanged, just as the Doctor expected. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Sands of Time (novel)}})
 
They also visited [[Morestra]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Zeta Major (novel)}})
 
Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa travelled to the [[Necropolitan]] to mourn Adric and were enlisted by the [[Solemn One]]s to solve a [[murder]]. They were locked in a [[cupboard]] and released by [[Verin]], later receiving the Solemn Ones' thanks for solving the murder and leaving the planet without Verin being aware of everything they had accomplished. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Wake (short story)}})


Tegan began having [[dream]]s of [[snake]]s due to her connection to the [[Mara]]. She helped defeat [[The Dark (Fear of the Dark)|the Dark]] on [[Akoshemon]]'s [[Akoshemon's moon|moon]],([[PROSE]]: ''[[Fear of the Dark (novel)|Fear of the Dark]]'') [[Byzan]] and [[Albis]] on [[Sirius]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Children of Seth (audio story)|The Children of Seth]]'') [[Vi'Al]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The God Machine (short story)|The God Machine]]'') the [[Voorvolika]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Armageddon Chrysalis (short story)|The Armageddon Chrysalis]]'') [[Carnak]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Haven (short story)|The Haven]]'') and [[the Dren]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Penalty (short story)|The Penalty]]'')
On an old Earth [[colony]], Tegan was kidnapped by [[Anna (Soul Mate)|Anna]] to keep her company and tied to a chair to keep her from escaping with the Doctor and Nyssa. She unsuccessfully tried to convince Anna to let her go and instead made her angry, causing her to smash a [[window]], a shard of which Tegan used to release herself from her bonds. When she was reunited with the Doctor and Nyssa, she learnt that Anna was actually a psychic imprint from the destruction of the colony [[century|centuries]] ago. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Soul Mate (short story)}})


After returning to Heathrow so that Tegan might meet a friend, the TARDIS crew met and defeated {{Delgado}} ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Night Flight to Nowhere (short story)|Night Flight to Nowhere]]'') and later saved the universe from a [[cyclotron]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Lackaday Express (short story)|Lackaday Express]]'') In [[1896]], Tegan attempted to change time slightly but events remained unchanged, just as the Doctor expected.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[Goths and Robbers (short story)|Goths and Robbers]]'')
The TARDIS picked up a distress call from [[F-four]] and Tegan spent time speaking with the colonists, who were unable to have children, whilst the Doctor and Nyssa embarked on [[science|scientific]] tests. She contracted a [[virus]] after sharing their food and deduced that somebody had hoped that the virus would be taken by the colonists to Earth, which they eventually accepted was the truth. She promised to share their story. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|No Exit (short story)}})


On an old Earth colony, Tegan was taken prisoner by [[Anna (Soul Mate)|Anna]] for company. Tegan managed to escape, after which the Doctor and Nyssa told her that Anna had only been an imprint and not, strictly speaking, real. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Soul Mate (short story)|Soul Mate]]'') Tegan felt left out on [[F-four]] because of her lack of [[science|scientific]] knowledge and wandered off, uncovering the truth behind a deadly disease. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[No Exit (short story)|No Exit]]'')
Because Tegan and Nyssa were unable to find any [[pasta sauce]] in the TARDIS, the Doctor took them to [[Italy]] but landed in [[5th century]] [[Ravenna]] instead of [[2000s]] [[Rome]] as intended and they were welcomed by [[Flavius Theodoricus]]. They went back in time to when Theodoric was a child to learn how he had met them before and were freed by him after they were arrested for allegedly stealing the [[Crown of Byzantium]]. Tegan told him not to do anything in anger in the hopes that he would not kill [[Odoacer]], but she found that he did so regardless as Odoacer would otherwise have killed him.

[[File:Vampire tegan.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan becomes a [[vampire]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Blood Invocation (comic story)|Blood Invocation]]'')]]
Tegan and Nyssa were chased by [[Endovorm]]s in the form of [[lion]]s at [[Trafalgar Square]], ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Lions of Trafalgar (audio story)}}) and helped the Doctor defeat the [[Akunites]] aboard the [[HMS Aquitaine]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Aquitaine (audio story)}})
Tegan and Nyssa asked the Doctor to teach them how to properly fly the TARDIS. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Men of the Earth (short story)|Men of the Earth]]'') Under the influence of the Mara, Tegan set the coordinates to [[Manussa (planet)|Manussa]] where she attempted to suppress the monster. However, she was unable to and helped it feed on the negative [[emotion]]s of those at a ceremony celebrating its defeat. The Doctor managed to defeat it and believed himself to have permanently freed Tegan from its possession. ([[TV]]: ''[[Snakedance (TV story)|Snakedance]]'')  


Recovering from Manussa, Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa went on holiday in [[Tasmania]] where they encountered [[vampire]]s, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Goth Opera (novel)|Goth Opera]]'') just as they later would on [[Gallifrey]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Blood Invocation (comic story)|Blood Invocation]]'')

Landing on [[Samotis]], the TARDIS crew were drafted into the race ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Warzone (audio story)|Warzone]]'') and eventually came face to face once more with the [[CyberNeomorph]]s, who partially [[cyber-conversion|converted]] Marc.

Tegan was agitated by the relaxing effects of Callanna which reminded her of [[Deva Loka]]. She became aquatinted with [[Mison]] and learnt about a terrible war. After she, Nyssa and Marc helped [[Steppa Westma Cotter-Thatch Slitheen]], the Doctor returned for them. Although Steppa said that they should forgive him, Tegan was unsure if she could. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Madquake (audio story)|Madquake]]'')

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Conversion (BFM audio story)}})
 
Unlike Nyssa, Tegan was uncomfortable with the relaxing effects of Callanna given her experience on [[Deva Loka]]. She, Nyssa, Marc and [[Mison]] fled with [[Cott]]'s help when [[Bella (Madquake)|Bella]] and [[Grumma]] came to Callanna on a [[human]] hunt and prevented them from using an [[atmosphere scoop]], after which Tegan put on Cott's skin suit and pretended to be [[Bamma Lotta-Proppa Klatch-Par Slitheen]] to send them away. Afterwards, the Doctor returned for his companions, but Tegan did not feel that she was able to forgive him for abandoning them. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Madquake (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor attempted to pilot the TARDIS to [[Gallifrey]] so that he and his companions could talk with the help of an [[arbitrator]], but they instead arrived at the [[Welkin Sanatorium and Centre for Wellness|Welkin Sanatorium]] where Tegan was especially rude following her recent experiences, offending Marc and [[Sylvie (The Lost Resort)|Sylvie]]. She found [[Nora Edgecastle]]'s body and, when the Doctor started seeing [[Adric]], she assured the Doctor that he did not need to be so paternalistic with his companions nor blame himself for what happened to Adric or Marc. After realising that everybody at the Welkin were [[hologram]]s, the travellers left and the Doctor apologised to them. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Lost Resort (audio story)}})
 
Arriving on [[RMS Oceanic|RMS ''Oceanic'']] in [[1890]], Tegan and Nyssa overheard [[Marion Jones]] plotting against [[Nellie Bly]], but they did not warn her as they were unsure as to whether or not Nellie's mission was part of established history. Tegan was kidnapped and tied to the top of the ship's [[mast]] after swapping clothes with Nellie, but Marc was able to bring her back down and the TARDIS crew worked to ensure that Nellie completed her journey. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Perils of Nellie Bly (audio story)}})
 
Marc changed the coordinates on the [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|TARDIS console]] to take them to [[XB93]] before falling unconscious, after with Tegan explored with the Doctor and Nyssa and helped put Marc in a [[sleep pod]] to rest. Tegan learnt that the sleep pods were compulsory and that the workers were unable to leave the rig, the conditions of which appalled her, and watched over the Doctor and Nyssa when they entered the dream world themselves, later being forced by [[Foster (Nightmare of the Daleks)|Foster]] to enter a pod herself. She was unhappy when Marc decided to stay on XB93 to keep the [[Dalek]]s at bay and was surprised at how quickly the Doctor wanted to move on.

When the TARDIS landed on [[Aranis Space-Hub]], Tegan was eager to enjoy the entertainment facilities, but the Doctor instead decided that they would take a [[shuttle]] to [[Komoko]] to visit [[Velar]]. They learnt that he had been killed by [[Reno]] and faked their [[death]]s in their [[sabotage]]d shuttle so that they could find another way to get off-world and alert the authorities, but their survival was soon discovered and Tegan pretended to join Reno to distract her. The [[miner]]s stood up to Reno and the [[police]] took the travellers back to Aranis, the facilities of which Tegan was no longer enthusiastic to enjoy after being confronted with the [[xenophobia]] of her own kind. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Friendly Fire (audio story)}})
 
The travellers became caught in [[the Count]]'s [[time loop]], inside of which Tegan worked as a [[landlord|landlady]] and had attracted the attention of [[Armand Barbier]]. She eventually remembered her real life and fled from the [[ghost]]ly echoes of future [[soldier]]s with Armand and [[LaChappelle|Madame LaChappelle]], barricading themselves in the Count's [[chateau]] but being outside when the Doctor put the Count's [[time machine]] into overdrive. As a result, Tegan and Armand arrived in [[1939]] and lived a whole year together as a couple before Armand died in [[World War II]] as she suspected he would; when the Doctor and Nyssa found her, she asked to be taken anywhere else. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Edge of the War (audio story)}})
 
When the Doctor decided to visit [[Prague]], Tegan suggested returning to [[Amsterdam]] or [[London]] instead and Nyssa remarked that she wanted to see [[San Francisco]]. They arrived at the [[Svarozhich Project]] beneath Prague and were given a tour by [[Jane Flora]], whom they helped investigate the [[murder]] and replacement of the project workers by [[Szlth'TOK]]'s people. The Doctor helped negotiate a peace and agreed to let Tegan and Nyssa read out the coordinates for their next destination, which Tegan rolled her eyes at. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Men of the Earth (short story)}})
 
[[File:Vampire tegan.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan becomes a [[vampire]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Blood Invocation (comic story)}})]]Whilst the Doctor was teaching Tegan and Nyssa how to read [[star chart]]s, Tegan, under the [[influence]] of the [[Mara]], read out the coordinates of [[Manussa (planet)|Manussa]] instead of his intended destination. The Doctor gave her an [[anti-dreaming device]] to keep her from falling under the Mara's control, but [[fortune teller (Snakedance)|a fortune teller]] removed her [[earpiece]] at a [[market|marketplace]] and she succumbed to it, unable to fight against it in her mind. She was freed once the Doctor removed the [[Great Crystal]] from its socket, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Snakedance (TV story)}}) but she continued to have bad [[dream]]s and worried that the Mara remained in her mind. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Mawdryn Undead (TV story)}})
 
A [[distress signal]] summoned the Doctor to [[Gallifrey]] to help investigate a mysterious murder, but Tegan felt ill with a cold and remained in the TARDIS whilst the Doctor and Nyssa met with [[Hemal|Cardinal Hemal]]. She was then attacked in [[Tegan Jovanka's TARDIS bedroom|her bedroom]] by [[Vampire (Blood Invocation)|the vampire cultist]] responsible for the attack. Biting her, he non-fatally infected her with the first stages of vampirism, causing her to attack the Doctor when he and Nyssa returned to the ship. However, the Doctor held her at bay with a [[psychic shield]] powered by his [[faith]] in Tegan herself. Ultimately, the vampire was killed when the Doctor and Nyssa tricked him into stepping out of the TARDIS into direct sunlight, curing Tegan and leaving her with no [[memory]] of her brief transformation. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Blood Invocation (comic story)}})
 
Recovering from Manussa, Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa went on holiday in [[Tasmania]] where they encountered [[vampire]]s. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Goth Opera (novel)}})


==== Turlough joins ====
==== Turlough joins ====
On Earth, Tegan met two different versions of the [[retirement|retired]] [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]], whom she took a liking to. In contrast, she greatly distrusted [[Vislor Turlough]]. When she mistook [[Mawdryn]] for the a regenerating Doctor, Tegan was infected with his virus which caused her to age backwards until the Brigadier saved her thanks to the [[Blinovitch Limitation Effect]]. Afterwards, Turlough joined the TARDIS crew, something that Tegan was not pleased with. ([[TV]]: ''[[Mawdryn Undead (TV story)|Mawdryn Undead]]'')
{{Section stub|Info from {{cs|Doctor Who In Wonderland (novel)}} needs to be added}}
On [[Mawdryn]]'s [[Mawdryn's spaceship|spaceship]] in [[1983]], Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa met [[Vislor Turlough]] and travelled to Earth in two groups to return him to [[Brendon School]] and disable a transmat signal jamming [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]]. Tegan and Nyssa instead arrived in [[1977]] and for a time mistook Mawdryn for a [[regeneration|regenerated]] Doctor, leading Tegan to meet [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]] whilst looking for help and take him to the TARDIS. She believed that Mawdryn's plan would make the Doctor a murderer, but was thankful to the Doctor when he was willing to give up his regenerations to save her and Nyssa, She was unhappy with Turlough, whom she distrusted, joining them on their travels. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Mawdryn Undead (TV story)}})
 
Tegan made her suspicions of Turlough well-known whilst Nyssa was more open-minded. After Turlough hit the [[landing gear]] and made the TARDIS land in the [[Gardens of the Dead]], Tegan went after Nyssa and found a man who had been suffocated by the psychic dust. She later struggled to keep the same thing from happening to the Doctor and sent Turlough into the TARDIS to collect [[water]] to turn the dust into [[mud]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Gardens of the Dead (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor took Tegan, Nyssa and Turlough to the [[Cloisters]] beneath [[the Capitol]] to meet with [[Ophiuchus]], who asked him to assist in his research into regeneration for medical purposes. Tegan and Nyssa could not see any problem with his request and, when Ophiuchus collapsed, they encouraged the Doctor to give him the [[regeneration energy]] that he needed to regenerate. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Ophiuchus (comic story)}})
 
[[File:TeganInShadows.jpg|thumb|right|Tegan and [[Turlough]] onboard [[Terminus]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Terminus (TV story)}})]]
After begrudgingly giving Turlough a tour of the TARDIS and showing him to [[Adric's TARDIS bedroom|his bedroom]], Tegan followed the Doctor and Nyssa onto [[Terminus]] in the company of her newest companion and went looking for them. The pair hid under the floor from those infected with [[Lazar's disease]] and became stuck, eventually managing to get out and restore the vanished door to the TARDIS, but Tegan declined to return to safety and managed to find the Doctor and Nyssa. When Nyssa told her that she intended to remain on Terminus, she hoped that the Doctor would be able to talk her out of it before giving her a hug goodbye. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Terminus (TV story)}})


[[File:TeganInShadows.jpg|thumb|right|Tegan and [[Turlough]] onboard [[Terminus]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Terminus (TV story)|Terminus]]'')]]
The Doctor left Tegan in the TARDIS after the [[White Guardian]] attempted to make contact, believing her to be more reliable than Turlough due to him having run away whilst on Terminus, but she left after seeing [[Marriner]] fall on the [[TARDIS scanner|scanner]]. She was able to close her mind to him and rejected him as she recognised that he wanted to live vicariously through her and had no regard for any other [[Ephemeral]]s, including Turlough when he jumped overboard. Upon learning of Turlough's pact with the [[Black Guardian]], she told the Doctor that he was mad to believe that Turlough had never wanted the agreement. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Enlightenment (TV story)}})
Tegan, Nyssa and Turlough had to come together in the [[Gardens of the Dead]] to save the Doctor ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Gardens of the Dead (audio story)|Gardens of the Dead]]'') and the two women persuaded the Doctor to save [[Ophiuchus]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Ophiuchus (comic story)|Ophiuchus]]'')  


Thanks to Turlough's sabotage, the TARDIS ended up on ''[[Terminus]]'' where he and Tegan had to look for Nyssa. After Nyssa was cured of [[Lazar's disease]], she chose to remain and shared an emotional farewell with Tegan. ([[TV]]: ''[[Terminus (TV story)|Terminus]]'')
Tegan did not trust Turlough, frustrating him and leading him to storm out of the TARDIS into [[1905]] [[Buzzard Creek]]. Hours later, Tegan and the Doctor rescued Turlough from a [[cage]] he had been locked in by [[Thaddeus P. Winklemeyer]] and Turlough protected her from a [[Sythak]] by standing in front of her. The Doctor defeated Winklemeyer and Tegan gave Turlough a hug when they found that [[Berman Labazeen]] had died from Sythak [[venom]], but she soon resumed arguing with him once they returned to the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Freakshow (audio story)}})


In [[1904]] [[Russia]], Tegan and Turlough were separated from the Doctor and boarded a train to [[St Petersburg]], on which they investigated a murder. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Gudok (short story)|Gudok]]'')  
Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough landed in [[China]] in [[1928]] instead of [[London]] as intended and rescued [[Edward Grainger]] after the [[aeroplane]] that he and [[Carter (Falling from Xi'an)|Carter]] were flying to [[Calcutta]] crashed. She recognised Edward, whom she had met later in his life whilst she was travelling with [[Adric]] and [[Nyssa]], and also helped save [[Mai Ling]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Falling from Xi'an (short story)}})


They later encountered the [[Eternal]]s and Tegan was forced to deal with the unwanted attentions of [[Marriner]], who did not love her so much as want to live vicariously through her emotions. During the same adventure, she saw Turlough turn from evil and reject the [[Black Guardian]]. This caused her to warm up to Turlough somewhat. ([[TV]]: ''[[Enlightenment (TV story)|Enlightenment]]'')

After arguing with the Doctor about Turlough being aboard the TARDIS, Tegan relented and told Turlough that he did not have to leave on her account and the two of them were reluctant to leave the ship and help the Doctor and [[Nyssa]], who had last seen them fifty years ago from her perspective but two days from their own, after seeing what appeared to be the group's [[skeleton]]s. They soon reconsidered and joined them in looking for a cure for [[Richter's Syndrome]] and to solve the mystery of the skeletons, which turned out to have been made by [[EDGAR]]. Nyssa left with the TARDIS crew to take a sample of the cure to an infected [[planet]], but Tegan warned her that she could be with them for some time. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Cobwebs (audio story)}})


After leaving the Eternals, the TARDIS landed in [[Buzzard Creek]], [[Arizona]] in [[1905]] where they came across a [[freakshow]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Freakshow (audio story)|Freakshow]]'') They also met [[Edward Grainger]], whom Tegan had already met in his personal future. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Falling from Xi'an (short story)|Falling from Xi'an]]'')
Tegan had difficulty sleeping due to [[nightmare]]s caused by the [[Mara]]. Her restlessness kept Nyssa awake, but Nyssa did not speak with the Doctor about it nor raise the issue with Tegan. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Cradle of the Snake (audio story)}})


==== With Turlough and an older Nyssa ====
The Doctor set the TARDIS to listen out for mentions of Richter's Syndrome and landed on [[29th century]] [[Chodor]] where he and Tegan tried to save [[Anulf]] from being kidnapped by the [[Taker]]s, but they were captured by [[Seksa]] and taken to [[Purity Bay]] where they managed to gain her trust. Suffering from headaches, Tegan collapsed in the [[decontamination chamber]] and was carried away by the Takers, who recognised that she was suffering from some affliction. The TARDIS crew defeated the [[Shade (The Whispering Forest)|Shades]] and returned to the TARDIS where Tegan told the Doctor of her headaches and difficulty sleeping before she was taken over by the Mara. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Whispering Forest (audio story)}})
Two days after Nyssa left, Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough arrived on [[Helheim]] where they were reunited with Nyssa, fifty years older. They investigated a medical facility attempting to cure [[Richter's Syndrome]], after which Nyssa boarded the TARDIS to go home. However, Tegan pointed out that it would likely be some time before the Doctor managed to get her there. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Cobwebs (audio story)|Cobwebs]]'')


On [[Chodor]] in the [[28th century]], the TARDIS crew uncovered the true origins of the corrupt society, after which they discovered that Tegan was still influenced by the Mara. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Whispering Forest (audio story)|The Whispering Forest]]'') The Mara left Tegan and possessed the Doctor before Tegan and Turlough expelled it with a circle of [[camera]]s and screens. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Cradle of the Snake (audio story)|The Cradle of the Snake]]'')
Tegan had the Mara removed from her mind thanks to the Doctor's use of a [[Little Mind's Eye]], but was unaware for some time that it had actually moved into him. The Doctor landed the TARDIS on [[Manussa (planet)|Manussa]] during the [[Manussan Empire]] and Tegan and Nyssa eventually realised that he was possessed and intended to establish the [[Sumaran Empire]] several [[century|centuries]] early regardless of the [[Web of Time]]. Tegan was ultimately willing to sacrifice her life to save Manussa and defeat the Mara with an inverted crystal, but [[Baalaka]] realised that he was essentially the other half of the Mara and took her place. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Cradle of the Snake (audio story)}})


[[File:Centre Fold Rat Trap.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan in the [[Cadogan Tunnels]] in [[1983]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Rat Trap (audio story)|Rat Trap]]'')]]
Although Tegan wanted to go somewhere exciting, the Doctor took his companions to the [[Citadel of Samur]] so that Tegan could relax following their encounter with the Mara. She and the Doctor were captured by [[Thurr|Field-Major Thurr]] and, after she unwittingly gave away the Doctor's identity, she was taken as a [[hostage]] to the [[Sontaran]]s' crashed ship where she took a sample of [[nutrient]]s to cure Nyssa's [[Agent Z/002]] poisoning and was reunited with Turlough. Thurr destroyed the sample and Nyssa told Tegan about [[Lasarti|her husband]], [[Adric Traken|son]] and [[Neeka Traken|daughter]] in case she died, but the Doctor saved her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Heroes of Sontar (audio story)}})
Tegan, the Doctor, Turlough and Nyssa went up against the [[Sontaran]]s, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Heroes of Sontar (audio story)|Heroes of Sontar]]'') [[Rennol]] on [[Vektris]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Kiss of Death (audio story)|Kiss of Death]]'') and the [[Rat King]] in [[England]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Rat Trap (audio story)|Rat Trap]]'') before visiting [[Calcutta]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Emerald Tiger (audio story)|The Emerald Tiger]]'') [[Eight slash Q Panenka]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Jupiter Conjunction (audio story)|The Jupiter Conjunction]]'') and the [[monkey house]] of a [[zoo]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Monkey House (audio story)|The Monkey House]]'')


The Doctor tried to take the crew to [[William Jovanka|Tegan's father]]'s farm in [[1980s]] [[Brisbane]] but a hit by a [[Zygma beam]] meant that Nyssa and Turlough were transported to the [[51st century]] whilst Tegan and the Doctor remained in the console room. The two groups managed to find one another and defeat [[Magnus Greel]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Butcher of Brisbane (audio story)|The Butcher of Brisbane]]'')  
Tegan and Nyssa enjoyed relaxing on [[Vektris]] for two days whilst the Doctor and Turlough worked on repairing the TARDIS and followed Turlough when he chased [[Deela]] and was captured by [[Hoss]] and [[Kanch]]. Separated from the Doctor and Nyssa after following Turlough to the [[Winter Planet]], Tegan was taken captive by the two [[mercenary|mercenaries]] and threatened [[Calquin Rennol]] with a [[generator tube]] into letting Turlough and Deela go. Later, Tegan helped defeat [[the Morass (Kiss of Death)|the Morass]] using a [[scrambling unit]] and agreed with Nyssa that they would not tell the Doctor anything that they had learnt about Turlough's past. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Kiss of Death (audio story)}})


In [[2013]], Tegan and Turlough were infected by [[quartz]] and, at [[Mulkris]]'s bidding, destroyed [[Eldrad]]'s [[Eldrad's ring|ring]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Eldrad Must Die! (audio story)|Eldrad Must Die!]]'')
[[File:Centre Fold Rat Trap.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan in the [[Cadogan Tunnels]] in [[1983]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Rat Trap (audio story)}})]]
Tegan, the Doctor, Turlough and Nyssa went up against the [[Rat King]] in [[England]] ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Rat Trap (audio story)}}) before visiting [[Calcutta]] ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Emerald Tiger (audio story)}}) and [[Eight slash Q Panenka]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Jupiter Conjunction (audio story)}})


Accidentally arriving in [[E-Space]], Tegan encountered the [[Marshman|Marshmen]] on [[Adric]]'s home planet of [[Alzarius]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Mistfall (audio story)|Mistfall]]'') and helped defeat [[Balancer Skaarsgard]] on [[Isenfel]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Equilibrium (audio story)|Equilibrium]]'')  
The Doctor took Tegan, Nyssa and Turlough to the [[monkey house]] at the [[Hegemonic State Menagerie]] in the [[20th century]] to manipulate [[Milan (The Monkey House)|Milan]] into becoming sympathetic towards humanity and ensure that she did not invade Earth. Dressed in her [[Air Australia]] [[uniform]], Tegan unhappily pretended to be a despairing prisoner in a [[cage]] for the first three of Milan's visits, after which Milan came to disagree with the way of the [[Thrand]]ahar and surrendered to [[UNIT]]. Tegan, Nyssa and Turlough returned to the TARDIS whilst the Doctor said goodbye to her. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Monkey House (audio story)}})


The crew also came up against the [[Sandman (The Entropy Plague)|Sandmen]] and Tegan was forced to say farewell to Nyssa as she chose to remain behind to power a [[portal]] to allow the TARDIS to return to [[N-Space]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Entropy Plague (audio story)|The Entropy Plague]]'')

==== Adventures with Kamelion ====
In [[2013]], Tegan and Turlough were infected by [[quartz]] and, at [[Mulkris]]'s bidding, destroyed [[Eldrad]]'s [[Eldrad's ring|ring]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Eldrad Must Die! (audio story)}})
[[File:TeganAtControlsKD.jpg|thumb|right|Tegan struggles at the [[TARDIS console]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The King's Demons (TV story)|The King's Demons]]'')]]
In [[1215]] [[England]], Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough encountered {{Ainley}} and were joined in the TARDIS by [[Kamelion]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The King's Demons (TV story)|The King's Demons]]'')  


The Doctor tried to take them to the [[Eye of Orion]], en route to which a [[Phoenix (The Bird of Fire)|phoenix]] appeared in the TARDIS before the Doctor was able to trick it out. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Bird of Fire (short story)|The Bird of Fire]]'')  
Accidentally arriving in [[E-Space]], Tegan encountered the [[Marshman|Marshmen]] on [[Adric]]'s home planet of [[Alzarius]] ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Mistfall (audio story)}}) and helped defeat [[Balancer Skaarsgard]] on [[Isenfel]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Equilibrium (audio story)}})


The remains of the Mara in Tegan's mind affected Kamelion and resulted in him being controlled by it for a brief time. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Mark of the Medusa (short story)|Mark of the Medusa]]'')
The crew also came up against the [[Sandman (The Entropy Plague)|Sandmen]] and Tegan was forced to say farewell to Nyssa as she chose to remain behind to power a [[portal]] to allow the TARDIS to return to [[N-Space]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Entropy Plague (audio story)}})


A few days after Kamelion joined, the crew landed in the [[Crystal Bucephalus]] where Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough were arrested for murder. Whilst briefly stranded in the mid-[[1980s]], Tegan met a teenage [[McDonald's]] employee named [[Ace]], who would later become a companion of the [[Seventh Doctor]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)|The Crystal Bucephalus]]'')
==== Kamelion joins ====
{{Section stub|Further info from {{cs|The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)}} needs to be added}}
[[File:TeganAtControlsKD.jpg|thumb|right|Tegan struggles at the [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|TARDIS console]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The King's Demons (TV story)}})]]
When the Doctor attempted to pilot the TARDIS to [[Trion (planet)|Turlough's planet]], they instead arrived in [[1215]] [[England]] and Tegan, initially wondering if it was a [[Black Guardian]] trap, was unhappy with leaving the ship and staying in the cold of [[Fitzwilliam Castle]]. She threw a [[knife]] at [[Tremas Master|the Master]] when he made his presence known and managed to dematerialise the TARDIS to distract [[Ranulf Fitzwilliam|Ranulf]] and [[Hugh Fitzwilliam]] when they accused the Doctor of killing [[Geoffrey de Lacy]]. When she returned, she was introduced to [[Kamelion]], whom she did not trust nor want aboard the TARDIS because he was a robot. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The King's Demons (TV story)}})


Tegan did not trust Kamelion but apologised to Turlough for not having trusted him. She became worried when a prisoner escaped on a prison ship. She was trapped in the jettisoned section of [[Orna (Devil in the Mist)|Orna]] ship. She became worried upon hearing that the Doctor was paralysed. Her wounds healed remarkably quickly, which the Doctor realised was due to nanites. She helped to get Kamelion back into the TARDIS to stop him being possessed by the [[Guardian of the Spring]], and started to warm to him. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Devil in the Mist (audio story)|Devil in the Mist]]'')  
Tegan got the Doctor to join her and his other [[companion]]s in the console room after Kamelion detected an oncoming collision, after which an [[egg]] appeared above the [[time rotor]] and [[Phoenix (The Bird of Fire)|a phoenix]] burst out of it. Whilst Kamelion was overpowered, Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough fled to the [[TARDIS control room (The Masque of Mandragora)|secondary control room]] where the Doctor identified [[Rogos X]] as an attractive destination for the phoenix. He tricked the phoenix into leaving the ship and then set a course for the [[Eye of Orion]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Bird of Fire (short story)}})


Tegan wanted to go somewhere normal, so they visited [[Abertysswg]] in [[1902]]. She told the Doctor and Turlough about how Kamelion was influenced by Eira's grief. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Black Thursday (audio story)|Black Thursday]]'')  
Leaving Kamelion in the TARDIS, Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough attended the grand opening of [[Vittorio Levi]]'s [[museum (Mark of the Medusa)|museum]] where the [[Mara]] used her as a conduit and made her faint. It took over Kamelion, using Tegan's [[dream]]s to take on her appearance, until the Doctor managed to wake Tegan up and had her and the Mara look at one another. Unable to face itself, the Mara retreated into the [[TARDIS information system|databanks]] and memory stores of the TARDIS. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Mark of the Medusa (short story)}})


She was caught in a TV programme in [[1984]] [[York]] whike trying to find Kamelion. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Power Game (audio story)|Power Game]]'')  
A few days after Kamelion joined, the crew landed in the [[Crystal Bucephalus]] where Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough were arrested for murder. Whilst briefly stranded in the mid-[[1980s]], Tegan met a teenage [[McDonald's]] employee named [[Ace]], who would later become a companion of the [[Seventh Doctor]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)}})


After a visit to [[Mekalion]], Kamelion decided that he was too dangerous to journey out of the TARDIS with Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough and chose to remain within the TARDIS. Despite how Tegan's feelings towards him had somewhat changed, she did not mind Kamelion's decision. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Kamelion Empire (audio story)|The Kamelion Empire]]'')
Tegan accused Kamelion of [[sabotage]] when she saw him under the [[TARDIS console (Planet of Evil)|TARDIS console]], not realising that he was helping the Doctor, and found herself crashing on [[Rastana]] with him and [[Orna (Devil in the Mist)|Orna]] after the [[Harrigain]] ship that the TARDIS landed on split in half. Kamelion saved her from drowning, but he seemed to come under the control of [[Nustanu (Devil in the Mist)|Nustanu]] and, when he briefly returned to his usual form, Tegan showed no interest in saving him. She eventually learnt that he was actually being influenced by her prejudice and, upon returning to the TARDIS, she offered to help him clear up the console room. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Devil in the Mist (audio story)}})


==== Final adventures ====
The Doctor took Tegan, Turlough and Kamelion to [[Abertysswg]] in [[1902]] for some fresh air, but they arrived in a [[coal mine]] just before a [[natural gas]] explosion. After becoming aware of a buildup of [[afterdamp]], Tegan helped get those who could walk to the [[mineshaft]] and went to the surface with Kamelion, who soon disappeared due to him being influenced by [[Eira Hughes]]'s [[grief]]. She and the Doctor eventually found him and they returned to the TARDIS with Turlough, who asked that they next visit [[New York City|New York]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Black Thursday (audio story)}})
[[File:Tegan and Susan.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan laughing with [[Susan Foreman|Susan Campbell]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'')]]
The Doctor took Tegan and Turlough to the [[Eye of Orion]] to relax. Soon enough, the pair were drafted into helping their travelling companion (as well as his [[First Doctor|first]], [[Second Doctor|second]] and [[Third Doctor|third selves]]) complete the [[Game of Rassilon (The Five Doctors)|Game of Rassilon]]. In the [[Death Zone]], she met [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart]], [[Susan Foreman]] and [[Sarah Jane Smith]] and spent an extended period of time with the First Doctor. After her Doctor was made [[Lord President]] in {{Latham}}'s place, Tegan was surprised that he wanted to run from the [[Time Lord]]s. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Five Doctors (TV story)|The Five Doctors]]'') She later met the [[Eighth Doctor]], who saved her, Turlough and the Fifth Doctor from a [[Raston Warrior Robot]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Eight Doctors (novel)|The Eight Doctors]]'')


Tegan began to feel that the Doctor and Turlough shared a bond that she was not a part of and missed Nyssa. An attempt to show Turlough what the [[Fourth Doctor]] looked like resulted in Kamelion being overwhelmed by her memories of her [[Joy Jovanka|mother]], [[William Jovanka|father]] and [[Vanessa (Logopolis)|aunt]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Qualia (short story)|Qualia]]'')  
Instead arriving in [[York]] [[1984]], Kamelion went missing again and Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough spent three weeks looking for him. [[The Hostess]], having taken control of Kamelion, transported Tegan to take part in the ''[[Incredible Power Game]]'' and she acquired several [[dragasis crystal|Power Gems]], later being joined by Turlough and realising that they were helping an [[alien]] on an alternative version of [[Earth]]. They were saved by the Doctor and returned to the TARDIS, which picked up a [[recall signal]] from [[Mekalion]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Power Game (audio story)}})


She once again encountered the [[Sontaran]]s ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Sontar's Little Helpers (short story)|Sontar's Little Helpers]]'') and the Master, who [[hypnosis|hypnotised]] her and made her stab the Doctor. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Velvet Dark (short story)|The Velvet Dark]]'')
Tegan and Turlough were separated from the Doctor and Kamelion on Mekalion and were captured by the [[Groll]]s to be [[sacrifice]]d, but they and the Doctor, who soon joined them, were saved by Kamelion and [[Kamelion (species)|his soldiers]]. Kamelion surrendered control to [[Chaos (The Kamelion Empire)|Chaos]] in return for Tegan's survival and took her mind with him into the [[Locus (The Kamelion Empire)|Locus]] without her consent. She, the Doctor and Turlough used the bodies of Kamelions to trick and defeat Chaos and later agreed not to think of Kamelion whilst he retired to a [[Kamelion's room|spare storeroom]] in the TARDIS. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Kamelion Empire (audio story)}})


The trio visited [[Oxaqua]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Oxaqua Incident (short story)|The Oxaqua Incident]]'') [[Mesique]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Winter on Mesique (short story)|Winter on Mesique]]'') [[Melphis]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Class 4 Renegade (short story)|Class 4 Renegade]]'') [[Moon Village One]], ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Lunar Strangers (comic story)|The Lunar Strangers]]'') and [[1980s]] London where they were reunited with the Brigadier. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Nemertines (short story)|The Nemertimes]]'') They also visited the location between [[universe]]s, which Tegan named [[Ringpullworld]] and where [[Huxley (Ringpullworld)|Huxley]]'s prose style reminded her of Vanessa, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Ringpullworld (audio story)|Ringpullworld]]'') and fought the Master and the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] once more. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Birth of a Renegade (short story)|Birth of a Renegade]]'')

[[File:Tegan and Susan.jpg|thumb|left|Tegan laughing with [[Susan Foreman|Susan Campbell]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Five Doctors (TV story)}})]]
Tegan wanted to stay at the [[Eye of Orion]], but the Doctor became sucked into a [[time vortex]] by [[Borusa (The Five Doctors)|Borusa]] and the TARDIS landed in the [[Death Zone]]. Tegan went to the [[Dark Tower]] with the [[First Doctor]] where they eventually met up with the [[Second Doctor|Second]], [[Third Doctor|Third]] and Fifth Doctors as well as [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]] and [[Sarah Jane Smith]] and Borusa achieved his goal of [[immortality]]. She expected that she and Turlough would have to say goodbye to the Doctor when he was appointed [[President of the High Council|President]] and was surprised when he said that he would be going on the run from his people. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Five Doctors (TV story)}})


After receiving damage from [[Sentinel Six]], the Doctor landed the TARDIS inside [[Sea Base 4]] in [[2084]] where Tegan was taken hostage for a time by [[Nilson]]. When the Doctor released [[hexachromite gas]] into the base to stop the [[Silurian]]s and [[Sea Devil]]s from attacking, he asked Tegan and Turlough to give the Silurians oxygen but everyone died. ([[TV]]: ''[[Warriors of the Deep (TV story)|Warriors of the Deep]]'') To recover, they visited [[Tayborough Sands]] where Tegan decided that she wanted to visit her grandfather, [[Andrew Verney]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Deep Blue (novel)|Deep Blue]]'')
Resuming their holiday on the Eye of Orion, Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough were attacked by a [[Raston Warrior Robot]] against which they barricaded themselves in a ruined tower. The [[Eighth Doctor]] arrived and the two Doctors used [[Buridan's ass]] to cause it to break down, but [[Sontaran]]s arrived and the Eighth Doctor tricked them into reactivating it, causing them to be massacred. After the Doctors set up a [[Temporal Reverse Feedback Field]], the Eighth Doctor kissed Tegan on the cheek as a farewell. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Eight Doctors (novel)}})


In [[Little Hodcombe]], [[George Hutchinson]] tried to have Tegan burnt as the [[Queen of the May]], but she survived after she was switched for a straw figure at the last moment. The crew left with [[Will Chandler]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Awakening (TV story)|The Awakening]]'') who travelled with them for a month as the Doctor attempted to take him home. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The King of Terror (novel)|The King of Terror]]'') She met [[Peri Brown]] and [[Erimem]] at a [[cricket]] match attended by two versions of the Doctor and, that night, got drunk with them at a [[pub]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Graham Dilley Saves the World (short story)|Graham Dilley Saves the World]]'')
Tegan woke up to find Kamelion in the form of [[Joy Jovanka|her mother]] and followed him deep into the TARDIS with Turlough, deciding to use the [[android]] to show Turlough what the [[Fourth Doctor]] was like. Kamelion became overwhelmed by her subjective memories of her mother and [[Vanessa (Logopolis)|Vanessa]], as well as the Doctor and Turlough's own memories, and the Doctor placed him in a casket to shield him from them. Afterwards, Tegan told the Doctor that she was still happy in the TARDIS, but she was actually indecisive and feeling lonely. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Qualia (short story)}})


The TARDIS took Tegan to [[Lant Land]], which she believed to be a [[simulation]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Lant Land (short story)|Lant Land]]'') [[21st century]] Earth for Christmas shopping where she had the most fun she had had since shooting a Cyberman, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Last Minute Shopping (short story)|Last Minute Shopping]]'') [[London]] where she helped undo [[Margaret Thatcher]]'s [[assassination]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Assassin's Story (short story)|The Assassin's Story]]'') [[Rome]] where she and Turlough were kidnapped by [[Sextus Cornelius]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Rome (short story)|Rome]]'') the [[Isle of Mona]] in the [[11th century]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Fall of the Druids (short story)|The Fall of the Druids]]'') and to [[Allen Road]] where they met the [[Judoon]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Forgotten (comic story)|The Forgotten]]'')
The Doctor took Tegan and Turlough to [[Oxaqua]] to acquire [[Rellium crystal]]s and became involved in the conflict between the [[Bask]]s and the [[Thieg]]s, attempting to mediate peace but being [[arrest]]ed by [[Obedee]]. They escaped their [[execution]] and left after the two races reconciled. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Oxaqua Incident (short story)}})


Landing on [[Frontios]], Tegan met humans from the [[far future]] and had to pretend to be an [[android]] in front of the [[Gravis]]. Tegan and the Doctor left in the TARDIS to take the Gravis to [[Kolkokron]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Frontios (TV story)|Frontios]]'') although they first accidentally landed on [[Queth]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Life After Queth (short story)|Life After Queth]]'') After depositing the Gravis, the Doctor took Tegan to [[Africa]] on the last day of Earth ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Perfect Day (short story)|Perfect Day]]'') before they were summoned to [[Gallifrey]] where she met [[Leela]] and became [[Earth Ambassador to Gallifrey]] otherwise she would have had her memories wiped. She went on an Ambassadorial trip to one of the former Enemies of the Time Lords and worked out a way to de-escalate a situation with [[Sugru]]. She was later kidnapped by [[Scandrius]] who wanted to explore the universe. She got lost in the New Capitol. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Time in Office (audio story)|Time in Office]]'')  
Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough arrived on [[Mesique]] in the [[winter]] and checked on the Doctor's friend, [[Sellot]], from whom they learnt that the residents were starving. They went to see a captured [[sasquatch]] who went on to catch one of the [[rodent]]s plaguing the people, providing a solution to their problem. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Winter on Mesique (short story)}})


They went on to visit [[Salient Point]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Keeping It Real (short story)|Keeping It Real]]'') [[Elizabeth II]]'s [[coronation]], ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Where's the Doctor? (comic story)|Where's the Doctor?]]'') [[Ann (Categorical Imperative)|Ann]]'s [[christening]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Categorical Imperative (short story)|Categorical Imperative]]'') [[Nocturne (planet)|Nocturne]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Nocturne (audio story)|Nocturne]]'') and [[Camelot]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Creation of Camelot (short story)|The Creation of Camelot]]'') before returning for Turlough. ([[TV]]: ''[[Frontios (TV story)|Frontios]]'')
The TARDIS crew went to [[Melphis]] to complete the Doctor's records on the planet and agreed to help find [[DaSamPete]]'s [[robot]], which they found selling [[drug]]s it had stolen from DaSamPete. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Class 4 Renegade (short story)}})


Tegan and Turlough were concerned when seeing the Engineers dismantling the TARDIS console. [[Volos]] explained their way of life to Tegan, explaining that they were building a world, and Tegan realised that their leader, [[Konis]], was lying to them. She became worried when she learnt that Konis had suppressed the Doctor's memory. She convinced Volos to create an avatar of her so that she could help the Doctor, but effectively died when entering Konis' world.  She was later revived and helped defeat the Vodyani. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Nightmare Country (audio story)|Nightmare Country]]'')
Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough were reunited with [[Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart|the Brigadier]], who was leading [[UNIT]] as they attempted to deal with giant worms in the [[River Thames]]. With the Doctor's help, UNIT ended up killing the worms by lowering a block of [[salt]] into the [[water]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Nemertines (short story)}})


[[File:Tegan goodbye.jpg|thumb|Tegan says goodbye to the Doctor. ([[TV]]: ''[[Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)|Resurrection of the Daleks]]'')]]
An [[energy]] reading led the TARDIS crew to [[Moon Village One]] in [[2015]] where the Doctor met [[Freda Jackson]] and Tegan and Turlough donned [[space suit]]s and went in search of the energy on the lunar surface, finding [[Ravnok]] and [[Vartex]]'s container full of [[cheese]]. Following Ravnok and Vartex's deaths, Tegan asked if they could return to the TARDIS, but the Doctor first wanted to confiscate the [[Dryrth]] technology. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Lunar Strangers (comic story)}})
 
When the Doctor materialised the TARDIS on [[Walther Schwieger]]'s [[U-boat]] in search of a signal, Tegan and Turlough became trapped inside the ship and the Doctor helped his [[Sixth Doctor|sixth]] and [[Seventh Doctor|seventh incarnation]]s fight the [[Knights of Velyshaa]]. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Sirens of Time (audio story)}})
 
Tegan found the Doctor in the [[Cloister Room]] after he received a [[note]] regarding [[Tremas Master|the Master]]'s [[funeral]], which she believed that [[Nyssa]] should also have attended. Following the funeral, Tegan found the [[Watcher Master]] burning the victims of his [[Tissue Compression Eliminator]] to power the now-disembodied Master's [[the Master's TARDIS|TARDIS]] and was [[hypnosis|hypnotised]] to help steal one of the Doctor's [[regeneration]]s. The Master ultimately used parts of his previous regenerations to restore [[Tremas]]'s body and Tegan, the Doctor and Turlough restored and returned his shrunken victims. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Velvet Dark (short story)}})
 
In [[1904]] [[Russia]], Tegan and Turlough were separated from the Doctor by an exploding [[teleportation device]] and boarded a [[train]] from [[Vladivostok]] to [[St Petersburg]] to meet up with him. Tegan was upset by the deaths of [[Peter (Gudok)|Peter]], [[Sasha (Gudok)|Sasha]] and [[Yevgeny Petrovitch Bazarov]] and let Turlough, whom she still did not trust, comfort her. They realised that [[Rodya]] had committed the [[murder]]s to keep knowledge of a planned attack on ''[[Gudok]]'' from reaching St Petersburg and he tried to throw Tegan from the train, but they pulled into the station and the Doctor caught him. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Gudok (short story)}})
 
They visited the location between [[universe]]s, which Tegan named [[Ringpullworld]] and where [[Huxley (Ringpullworld)|Huxley]]'s prose style reminded her of Vanessa. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Ringpullworld (audio story)}})
 
One morning, Tegan and Turlough were disturbed in their respective bedrooms by the Doctor singing a [[Christmas carol]] and followed a [[distress call]] to the ''[[St Nicholas (ship)|St Nicholas]]'' where [[Braast|Lieutenant Braast]] engaged Turlough in [[battle]] to prove himself. Tegan distracted the [[Sontaran]]'s [[robot]]s whilst the Doctor took control of them and had them escort Braast back to the ''[[Apocalypse (ship)|Apocalypse]]'' and get the ''St Nicholas'' to [[Loen]] in time for [[Christmas]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Sontar's Little Helpers (short story)}})
 
[[File:Birth of a Renegade illustration 1.jpg|thumb|right|Tegan with the Doctor and Turlough. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birth of a Renegade (short story)}})]]
Tegan was unhappy when the Doctor chose to respond to a distress call from the Master's TARDIS, disguised as a battle cruiser, to which the TARDIS was then drawn by a [[tractor beam]]. The three travellers were captured by the Master and the [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] and reunited with Susan, whom the Master planned to use as a puppet to rule Gallifrey, but they managed to escape with her back to the Doctor's TARDIS whilst the Master's collapsed due to Susan using the [[Tissue Compression Eliminator]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Birth of a Renegade (short story)}})
 
The Doctor often spoke about [[River Song]] after meeting her at the [[Café de Paris]], which frustrated Tegan to the point that she pushed him up against a wall in the [[Zero Room]] and demanded that he stop. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Expiry Dating (audio story)}})
 
The Doctor promised to show Tegan her future, but they arrived later than intended, in [[2084]], and materialised in [[Sea Base 4]] after the TARDIS was shot by [[Sentinel Six]]. They were separated from Turlough and attacked by [[Myrka (Warriors of the Deep)|a Myrka]] which the Doctor managed to kill with an [[ultraviolet converter]], some time after which they acquired [[hexachromite gas]] from the chemical store and Tegan encouraged the Doctor to release it into the [[ventilation system]] to kill the attacking [[Silurian]]s and [[Sea Devil]]s. On the Doctor's order, however, she and Turlough tried in vain to revive two Silurians with [[oxygen pack]]s. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Warriors of the Deep (TV story)}})
 
To recover, they visited [[Tayborough Sands]] where Tegan began to consider that it might be best to leave the TARDIS before death became completely meaningless to her. She decided that she wanted to visit her grandfather, [[Andrew Verney]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Deep Blue (novel)}})
 
The Doctor took Tegan and Turlough to [[Little Hodcombe]] in [[1984]] as Tegan requested, but they were [[arrest]]ed as trespassers as part of the village's war games and learnt that Verney had disappeared several days prior. [[Ben Wolsey]] and [[Joseph Willow]] kidnapped her on [[George Hutchinson|Sir George Hutchinson]]'s orders to be [[sacrifice]]d as the [[Queen of the May]], only for Wolsey to turn against Sir George and replace her with a [[scarecrow]]. Following the defeat of Sir George and the [[Malus]], Tegan asked to spend some time with Verney, who had been being held prisoner, and Turlough agreed. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Awakening (TV story)}})
 
Tegan and Turlough spent three weeks exploring the [[Dorset]] countryside together whilst the Doctor tried to return [[Will Chandler]] to [[1643]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The King of Terror (novel)}})
 
At the [[1981 Ashes series]], Tegan accidentally distracted [[Graham Dilley]] when he was supposed to make a catch and created an aberrant [[timeline]] in which the [[England|English]] rioted and multiple heads of state were [[assassination|assassinated]]. An older Doctor successfully sent [[Peri Brown]] and [[Erimem]] to prevent the distraction and she instead shouted at Dilley to pay attention, after which the three women got drunk at a [[pub]] together.

Tegan did not understand why the Doctor wanted to stay at [[Simon (Lant Land)|Simon]] and [[Joanne (Lant Land)|Joanne]]'s [[apartment]] when they landed there and wanted to leave, finding it strange that the couple spent time watching [[Lant]]s lead ordinary lives in [[Lant Land]]. She and Turlough came to believe that the Doctor had accidentally brought them to Lant Land, but the Doctor deduced that they were in the real world and that the Lants and viewers had swapped places. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Lant Land (short story)}})
 
In [[1984]], Tegan noticed a [[newspaper]] reporting on [[Margaret Thatcher]]'s assassination and went back in time with the Doctor and Turlough several times to try to prevent it. They eventually took the imprisoned assassin [[Heathcliffe Bower]] to meet his younger self and succeeded in preventing the killing. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Assassin's Story (short story)}})
 
Tegan and Turlough were awoken at five o'clock one morning by the Doctor, who finally managed to land at [[Oxford Street]] on [[Christmas Eve]], and she excitedly went out shopping, having the most fun she had had since shooting a Cyberman. She bought [[sock]]s and a [[tie]] for Turlough and was unable to find [[question mark]] [[pyjamas]] for the Doctor, going on to reject a question mark [[umbrella]] for looking "a bit naff" before stealing a [[compass]] with the intent of paying for it in the future. The Doctor ultimately failed to find anything for her and Turlough bought her [[clothes]] which they used to tie up an undercover [[policeman]] who tried to arrest her. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Last Minute Shopping (short story)}})
 
Tegan was keen to see the [[Colosseum]] when the Doctor took her and Turlough to [[Rome]], but they arrived sixty years before its construction. She and Turlough became separated from the Doctor as he gave them a history lesson and captured by men who brought them before [[Sextus Cornelius]], who threatened to kill them unless the Doctor took him back to his [[planet]]. With the help of [[Felix (Rome)|Felix]] and [[boy (Rome)|an orphan]], the Doctor freed them. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Rome (short story)}})
 
In the [[1st century]], Tegan and the Doctor were taken to the [[Isle of Mona]] by the [[Ordovice]]s and kept [[Ffion (The Fall of the Druids)|Ffion]] from changing time by defeating the Romans. Tegan was saved by [[Kamelion]] during the battle and she and the Doctor were reunited with Turlough. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Fall of the Druids (short story)}})
 
Tegan and Turlough were watching the Doctor playing [[cricket]] near [[Allen Road]] when a [[Judoon]] ship landed in search of the [[Eye of Akasha]]. Tegan and the Doctor spoke with the Judoon whilst Turlough collected the Doctor's [[Five Hundred Year Diary]] and the Doctor got rid of them by handing them a [[cricket ball]], pretending that it was the Eye. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Forgotten (comic story)}})
 
Tegan and Turlough were concerned when seeing the Engineers dismantling the TARDIS console. [[Volos]] explained their way of life to Tegan, explaining that they were building a world, and Tegan realised that their leader, [[Konis]], was lying to them. She became worried when she learnt that Konis had suppressed the Doctor's memory. She convinced Volos to create an avatar of her so that she could help the Doctor, but effectively died when entering Konis' world. She was later revived and helped defeat the Vodyani. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Nightmare Country (audio story)}})
 
When the TARDIS entered the [[Veruna system]] in the [[far future]], Tegan asked to visit the humans on [[Frontios]] and wrongfully suspected that [[Range]] was responsible for those kidnapped by the [[Tractator]]s upon finding his records of the "unaccountable deaths". She was detained by [[Brazen]] after [[Plantagenet]] was taken, but escaped by causing a flash with power cables and went into the Tractators' tunnels with the Doctor where they met the [[Gravis]]. The Doctor tricked the Gravis into isolating himself from the other Tractators and went with Tegan to drop him off on an uninhabited planet, temporarily leaving Turlough behind. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Frontios (TV story)}})

According to one account, Tegan and the Doctor dropped the [[Gravis]] off on [[Kolkokron]] whilst he was still dormant and then went to [[Africa]] at the end of [[Earth]]. The Doctor intended to return to [[Frontios]] to pick up Turlough, but wondered if there might be issues getting back there immediately due to their side trip. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Perfect Day (short story)}})
 
According to another account, the Gravis was no longer dormant and his enthusiasm for the mundane frustrated Tegan during the twelve-hour journey to Kolkokron. She wanted to leave him behind and return to [[Frontios]] when the TARDIS instead landed on [[Queth]], calling him a [[murder]]er, but the Doctor insisted that they stay to investigate. Upon realising that the [[Queeth]] had to become their own ancestors, Tegan and the Doctor left the Gravis on Kolkokron and took the Queeth back in [[time]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Life After Queth (short story)}})
 
The Doctor received a [[distress call]] on the way back to Frontios and took Tegan to [[Salient Point]] where she met [[Vivash O'Connell]], the sole survivor of a human [[colony ship]] who reprogrammed the [[food replicator]] to make it [[Christmas]] every day. They intended to take him to Frontios and had Christmas dinner with him in the [[TARDIS control room (The Five Doctors)|console room]], which Tegan was surprised to find that she enjoyed, but the TARDIS picked up another distress call during the journey. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Keeping It Real (short story)}})
 
Tegan and the Doctor arrived in mediaeval [[Great Britain]] and met [[King Arthur]], quickly deducing that his Merlin was [[The Master (The Creation of Camelot)|the Master]] and that he planned to prevent Arthur's unification of Britain. The King sent the Master to his rooms to await his judgement, but he departed in [[the Master's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] and Tegan and the Doctor were left to ensure that established history was adhered to by suggesting a [[Round Table]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Creation of Camelot (short story)}})
 
To persuade [[the Mekon]] to donate [[money]] to [[charity]], Tegan and the Doctor went with the [[First Doctor|First]], [[Second Doctor|Second]], [[Third Doctor|Third]], [[Fourth Doctor|Fourth]], [[Sixth Doctor|Sixth]] and [[Seventh Doctor]]s, as well as [[Susan Foreman]], [[Victoria Waterfield]], [[Leela]], [[K9 Mark I]] and [[Ace]] to [[1991]], where the Second Doctor hit the Mekon in the face with a box of red noses. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic (comic story)}})
 
Tegan and the Doctor landed on [[Artaris]] where they soon got into an argument about how they had failed to get to Frontios, leading the Doctor to send Tegan to wait in the TARDIS and go out to explore whilst the [[time engine]] rested. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Excelis Dawns (audio story)}})
 
Tegan went with the Doctor to kill [[Ann (Categorical Imperative)|Ann]]'s child, but he did not go through with it and she deemed the trip a waste of time. As they left, she reminded him that the child would grow to be a [[monster]] and complained about the rudeness of [[Sarah Jane Smith]], who had strongly disagreed with the Doctor. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Categorical Imperative (short story)}})
 
Tegan and the Doctor once had what the [[Seventh Doctor]] remembered as a "particularly lively visit" to [[Nocturne (planet)|Nocturne]] ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Nocturne (audio story)}}) and attended [[Elizabeth II]]'s [[coronation]]. ([[COMIC]]: {{cs|Where's the Doctor? (comic story)}})
 
Tegan and the Doctor were summoned to [[Gallifrey]] where she met [[Leela]] and became [[Earth Ambassador to Gallifrey]] otherwise she would have had her memories wiped. She went on an Ambassadorial trip to one of the former Enemies of the Time Lords and worked out a way to de-escalate a situation with [[Sugru]]. She was later kidnapped by [[Scandrius]] who wanted to explore the universe. She got lost in the New Capitol. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Time in Office (audio story)}})
 
Tegan and the Doctor eventually arrived back on Frontios and, after ensuring that [[Range]] and [[Norna]] would keep their presence there secret to keep the [[Time Lord]]s from finding out, left with [[Vislor Turlough|Turlough]]. The TARDIS was pulled towards the centre of the universe, for which Tegan initially thought that the Gravis might somehow be responsible. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Frontios (TV story)}})


==== Departure ====
==== Departure ====
A [[time corridor]] dragged the TARDIS to [[1984]] [[London]] where Tegan was knocked out after coming across a [[Dalek]]. She helped to defeat them, but the carnage of the [[Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War|Dalek civil war]] disillusioned her to her travels in the TARDIS. Remembering what [[Vanessa (Logopolis)|Vanessa]] had told her when she started her job as an [[air stewardess]], she bid an emotional and accusatory farewell to the Doctor and Turlough and ran off before the Doctor could respond.
After leaving [[Frontios]], the TARDIS materialised in [[Snowdonia]] where Tegan was greatly upset when [[Prodigal]] and her [[human]]-[[Auton]]s killed several [[UNIT]] [[soldier]]s and shot Turlough, whom she momentarily believed was dead. The two companions were taken aboard a [[vortex driller]] where Tegan came to sympathise with Prodigal, who asked her if life with the Doctor was rewarding and died wearing her face, hoping that Tegan would find a place of her own in the world. She realised the amount of [[death]] that she saw in her life with the Doctor and, following the defeat of the [[First Consciousness]], she returned to the TARDIS with the Doctor and Turlough and was caught in a [[time corridor]].

Even so, she ran back in time to see the TARDIS dematerialise, calling out her goodbyes.

==== Settling down ====
Tegan was left on [[Earth]] with no [[money]], no possessions and no explanation of where she had been for three years. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fixing a Hole (short story)}}) She returned to [[Brisbane]] using money that her family wired to her so that she might leave [[London]] ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat (short story)}}) and then spent several weeks travelling around the globe, dropping in on friends in [[Melbourne]] and London.
After several weeks of travelling, which she found dull, Tegan decided to get her job as an [[air stewardess]] back and wrote a letter to the airline which she did not receive a response to. She then left a [[telephone]] message and, when she did not hear back, she went to the airline offices and demanded to speak with the personnel director. She managed to get her job back and was to begin on [[23 February]] [[1985]]. At some point before this date, she met a nice man who made her feel settled.

Tegan was left on [[Earth]] with no [[money]], no possessions and no explanation of where she had been for three years. For the first few weeks, she travelled around the globe, but eventually decided that she needed to get her old job back. When no responses came from her letters and phone calls, she went to the offices of the airline in question and demanded to speak to the personnel director.

On her first morning back at the airport as a stewardess, ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fixing a Hole (short story)}}) just as she was about to eat [[lunch]], Tegan was teleported into the TARDIS after the [[Sixth Doctor]] accidentally activated the [[matter transporter]]. Despite her grievances, she helped isolate the [[power]] to the control room to stop [[Nathan (A Fix with Sontarans)|Group Marshal Nathan]] and [[Turner (A Fix with Sontarans)|his subordinate]] from using the TARDIS to detonate a [[vitrox bomb]], in the course of which she accidentally transported [[Gareth Jenkins (A Fix with Sontarans)|Gareth Jenkins]] aboard. She was afraid upon seeing the [[Tenth Sontaran Battle Brigade]] on the [[TARDIS scanner]]. ([[HOMEVID]]: {{cs|A Fix with Sontarans (home video)}})
 
After the adventure, Tegan and the Doctor reconciled for a time and she was returned to Heathrow. She later recalled the experience as either cinematic and terrifying or comedic and silly, depending on how she looked at it. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Fixing a Hole (short story)}})
 
==== Back in Australia ====
By [[1987]], Tegan was running [[William Jovanka|her father]]'s farm ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat (short story)}}) and rarely thought about her adventures in the TARDIS, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Gathering (audio story)}}) although she did give an interview to [[River Song]] ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|When It Was Fun (short story)}}) and was, at some point, interviewed by [[UNIT United Kingdom|UNIT]] before having her mind wiped.

The Doctor visited her in 1987 to reassure her that she did not have to worry about the [[Mara]], as well as that her father would survive the [[snake]] bite that he suffered. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat (short story)}}) When the Doctor was [[regeneration|regenerating]], he reached out psychically to his companions. Tegan said "brave heart" and told him that he would survive. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Winter (audio story)}}; [[TV]]: {{cs|The Caves of Androzani (TV story)}})
 
After her father died, she took over his animal feed company [[Verney Food Supplies]], a job that she did not find especially fulfilling. She lived a normal life with few friends other than colleagues that she did not like. ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Gathering (audio story)}})
 
In the [[1990s]], Tegan answered a small [[advert]] in ''[[Time Out]]'' magazine which called for anybody who knew what the word "TARDIS" meant. She went to London where she was reunited with [[Sarah Jane Smith]] and met [[Liz Shaw]], [[Jo Grant]] and [[Ace|Dorothy McShane]] and reminisced with them over [[wine]], although she was less positive than the others.

==== Reunions ====
{{Section stub|Further info on the actual events of {{cs|The Gathering (audio story)}} needs to be added}}
Tegan embarked on a romantic relationship with [[Michael Tanaka]], a colleague of hers. However, she ended the relationship in [[2006]] after discovering that she had an inoperable brain tumour which she suspected was the result of her TARDIS misadventures. She was told that she was unlikely to live more than a year. On her birthday that year, she was reunited with the Doctor and refused his offer of travelling again or finding a [[cure]], telling him that she was happy with her life. She resumed her relationship with Michael.

Despite only having been given a year to live, ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Gathering (audio story)}}) Tegan was still alive in [[2010]], by which time she was, according to [[Sarah Jane Smith]]'s research, campaigning for Aboriginal rights. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Death of the Doctor (TV story)}})


==== Settling down ====
Accounts set during this period often disagreed on Tegan's romantic life: according to some, she entered into a relationship with [[Nyssa]], ([[WC]]: {{cs|Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)}}, [[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Companions (feature)|page=15}}, etc.) whilst other accounts inferred that Tegan was heterosexual, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of the Doctor (TV story)}}, [[WC]]: {{cs|The Passenger (webcast)}}, etc.) the latter account further implying Tegan's relationship with Nyssa was in a different universe, ([[WC]]: {{cs|The Passenger (webcast)}}) whilst another, linked account listed "Haybourne" as one of several surnames used by Tegan, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[TARDIS Data File: Tegan (feature)|TARDIS Data File: Tegan]]'') matching a further, much contradictory account of Tegan's life and marriage in the [[2020s]].

By [[2022]], Tegan had "seen off" two husbands and adopted [[Tegan Jovanka's adopted son|a son]] whom she went six weeks without hearing from. She claimed to have spent her time since leaving the Doctor living "like a [[nomad]]" and helping people, a lifestyle which involved removing [[land mine]]s, partaking in [[coup d'état|coups]], being hijacked and almost [[drowning]].


In the [[1990s]], she answered a small [[advert]] in ''[[Time Out]]'' magazine which called for anybody who knew what the word "TARDIS" meant.

Tegan later materialised in a [[remembered TARDIS]], just after she had said goodnight to Nyssa. She reunited with the Fifth Doctor, and the pair remembered the day Adric died fighting the Cybermen. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}})


Despite only having been given a year to live, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Gathering (audio story)|The Gathering]]'') Tegan was still alive in [[2010]], by which time she was, according to Sarah's research, campaigning for Aboriginal rights. ([[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor (TV story)|Death of the Doctor]]'') She entered into a relationship with [[Nyssa]], ([[WC]]: ''[[Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)|Farewell, Sarah Jane]]'') whom she had last seen in [[E-Space]], ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Entropy Plague (audio story)|The Entropy Plague]]'') and went with her to Sarah's [[funeral]] one [[spring]] day. The pair discussed Sarah with the other guests and helped fight the [[Jackals of the Backwards Clock]]. ([[WC]]: ''[[Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)|Farewell, Sarah Jane]]'')
At some point afterwards, [[the Mara]] resurfaced in a [[dream]] of Tegan's, in another attempt to possess her. It tried to tempt her with a reunion with [[Nyssa]], but Tegan refused, with Nyssa's voice claiming that they were "together" in another [[universe]]. Upon awakening, Tegan defiantly told the Mara that it was nothing compared to the other monsters and horrors she had encountered, and she bluntly told it to get "back in [its] box". ([[WC]]: {{cs|The Passenger (webcast)}})


According to one account, by the [[2020s]], Tegan had had a breakdown and was sent to [[Shawlands]] for [[therapy]] due to her stories about her time in the TARDIS, which were not only considered fanciful but also embarrassing for the government. She came to believe that her memories were delusions stemming from her [[trauma]] following Vanessa's death. Whilst at therapy, she developed her writing skills. After leaving, she [[marriage|married]] [[William Haybourne|Dr William Haybourne]] and lived with him in [[Cambridge]] after he was appointed chair at [[St Cedd's College]].

When the [[Eleventh Doctor]] accidentally materialised in [[19th century]] [[Yorkshire]], he defended to [[Clara Oswald]] that his piloting was much better than it used to be, recalling that he'd spent "a hell of a long time" trying to get "a gobby [[Australia]]n" back to [[Heathrow Airport]]. Though by this stage of his life, the Doctor had forgotten why Tegan had been so eager to return. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Crimson Horror (TV story)}})

Tegan was stubborn, loud and direct, describing herself as "just a [[mouth]] on [[leg]]s".

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|The Children of Seth (audio story)}}) She was sickened by [[blood sport]]s ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Equilibrium (audio story)}}) and violence, ([[TV]]: {{cs|Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)}}) but was willing to resort to violence in extreme circumstances. She threw a [[knife]] at {{Ainley}} when he threatened the Doctor ([[TV]]: {{cs|The King's Demons (TV story)}}) and killed a [[CyberNeomorph|Cyberman]] with its own gun. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TV story)}})


Tegan was a talented artist, sketching the latest [[1980s]] fashions on Earth for [[Minister of Enlightenment|Enlightenment]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Four to Doomsday (TV story)|Four to Doomsday]]'') and a pair of Cybermen. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Lackaday Express (short story)|Lackaday Express]]'') However, she was not a fan of [[modern art]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)|The Waters of Amsterdam]]'') She was a skilled linguist, studying foreign languages at [[college]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cold Fusion (novel)|Cold Fusion]]'') and being able to speak an [[Aborigine|Aboriginal]] language fluently. ([[TV]]: ''[[Four to Doomsday (TV story)|Four to Doomsday]]'') She was sympathetic to the status of the Aboriginal people in her time and campaigned for their rights in the [[21st century]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor (TV story)|Death of the Doctor]]'')
Tegan initially was prejudiced against [[Kamelion]] because he was a robot and wanted to look for an excuse to get rid of him, ([[TV]]: {{cs|The King's Demons (TV story)}}) only seeing her error when her prejudice caused him to go crazy and take Nustanu's form, endangering everyone.   ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Devil in the Mist (audio story)}})


She considered [[Nyssa]] to be her best friend ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Emerald Tiger (audio story)|The Emerald Tiger]]'') and was greatly saddened when she first left the TARDIS, ([[TV]]: ''[[Terminus (TV story)|Terminus]]'') once saying that Nyssa was "too good for this world" and that she wanted to be more like her. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aquitaine (audio story)|Aquitaine]]'') When Nyssa settled down on Earth, Tegan apparently entered into a relationship with her.

Although Tegan often found it hard to cope with Adric due to his apparent chauvinism, ([[TV]]: ''[[Four to Doomsday (TV story)|Four to Doomsday]]'') she did care for him and was upset by his death ([[TV]]: ''[[Earthshock (TV story)|Earthshock]]'') and  indignant at the Doctor's apparent refusal to save Adric's life, even though he mentioned the destructive consequences of messing with time.

([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Aquitaine (audio story)}}) When [[Geoff Paynter]] called her a [[lesbian]], Tegan ignored him and then called him a moron. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|The King of Terror (novel)}}) However, the Mara, which knew all of Tegan's thoughts, implied that she did indeed harbour passionate feelings for Nyssa and it tried to use this to tempt her. ([[WC]]: [[The Passenger (webcast)|The Passenger]]) Some accounts asserted that when Nyssa settled down on Earth, Tegan entered into a relationship with her, ([[WC]]: {{cs|Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)}}, [[TV]]: {{cs|Earthshock (TotT TV story)}}, [[PROSE]]: {{cs|The Doctor's Companions (feature)|page=15}}) although others showed that she only ever had romantic relationships with men. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Power of the Doctor (TV story)}}, [[PROSE]]: ''[[TARDIS Data File: Tegan (feature)|TARDIS Data File: Tegan]]'', {{cs|Good Companions (short story)}})

([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Aquitaine (audio story)|Aquitaine]]'') On one occasion, she derisively referred to the Doctor as a "posho".

Appearances

Tegan Melissa Jovanka, (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) by one account née Graham, (PROSE: Little Did She Know [+]Loading...["Little Did She Know (short story)"]) who, by some accounts, adopted the married name of Haybourne, (PROSE: Good Companions [+]Loading...["Good Companions (short story)"], TARDIS Data File: Tegan [+]Loading...["TARDIS Data File: Tegan (feature)"]) was a companion of the Fourth and Fifth Doctors and a temporary companion of the First, Sixth and Thirteenth Doctors.

On her way to begin her job as an air stewardess at Heathrow Airport, Tegan wandered into the TARDIS and became embroiled in the events surrounding the Fourth Doctor's regeneration. She was initially an unwilling companion to the Fifth Doctor, travelling alongside Nyssa and Adric, but came to enjoy them, later being joined by Marc, Turlough and Kamelion. However, witnessing a Dalek slaughter made her decide to leave the Doctor as it had "stopped being fun".

Tegan lived an ordinary life on Earth and campaigned for Aboriginal rights. Her sexuality and married life during the late 2010s and early 2020s was subject to many conflicting accounts.

Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]

Childhood[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan Melissa Jovanka (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) was born in Brisbane on 22 September, 1960 (AUDIO: The Gathering [+]Loading...["The Gathering (audio story)"]) to Bill (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) and Joy Jovanka. She had several brothers. (PROSE: Qualia [+]Loading...["Qualia (short story)"]) According to some accounts, her father's parents, Mjovic and Sneshna Jovanka, were Serbian and emigrated from Yugoslavia to Australia, (PROSE: Cold Fusion [+]Loading...["Cold Fusion (novel)"]) but had returned to their homeland by 1981. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) Another stated that her grandfather was Albert Jovanka. (AUDIO: The Kamelion Empire [+]Loading...["The Kamelion Empire (audio story)"]) Her maternal grandfather, Andrew Verney, was British. (TV: The Awakening [+]Loading...["The Awakening (TV story)"])

Her extended family included her mother's siblings Vanessa (PROSE: Qualia [+]Loading...["Qualia (short story)"]) and Richard Frazer, who was married to Felicity and had two sons; Colin and Michael. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) Tegan called Colin her favourite cousin. (TV: Arc of Infinity [+]Loading...["Arc of Infinity (TV story)"]) She also had other cousins who worked in blast-mining in Australia (AUDIO: The Contingency Club [+]Loading...["The Contingency Club (audio story)"]) and an uncle, Roger, who took her white water rafting on the Barron River one summer. (AUDIO: Devil in the Mist [+]Loading...["Devil in the Mist (audio story)"])

Tegan lived in the middle of nowhere on either a cattle station (AUDIO: Psychodrome [+]Loading...["Psychodrome (audio story)"]) or a sheep farm owned by her father. (PROSE: Logopolis [+]Loading...["Logopolis (novelisation)"]) She tried ice cream when she was three and did not like it. (TV: Kinda [+]Loading...["Kinda (TV story)"]) Her childhood was a lonely one and she escaped from the monotony of living on the farm by reading books once she was done with her chores. One such book was Alice's Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, who became a hero of hers. (PROSE: Doctor Who in Wonderland [+]Loading...["Doctor Who in Wonderland (novel)"])

When she was seven or eight, Tegan's mother took her to Arnhem Land to see the Aboriginal cave paintings, but they argued and Tegan ran off and got lost in the caves. Her mother also took her to a corroboree, which gave her a recurring nightmare of strange white figures coming out of the dark. (AUDIO: Psychodrome [+]Loading...["Psychodrome (audio story)"]) Tegan and her mother once went to Daintree Park and got caught in a hailstorm driving through Cape Tribulation. (AUDIO: Dream Team [+]Loading...["Dream Team (audio story)"])

Bill let Tegan drive around the farm in a tractor when she was ten. She was a natural driver but preferred aeroplanes, being allowed to fly her father's Cessna when she was older. (PROSE: Logopolis [+]Loading...["Logopolis (novelisation)"]) One particular flight had not gone well due to turbulence. (PROSE: Time-Flight [+]Loading...["Time-Flight (novelisation)"]) She played a spelling game called Magic Robot as a girl and was talented at drawing, a hobby that her father encouraged her to do. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) According to one account, Albert told her about his experience at Gallipoli in World War I and showed her a photograph of himself on the beach. (AUDIO: The Kamelion Empire [+]Loading...["The Kamelion Empire (audio story)"])

Tegan learnt how to dance the Charleston for a school play. (TV: Black Orchid [+]Loading...["Black Orchid (TV story)"]) Not especially bright as a child, she often took the blame for others because she could not think up her own excuses. Her next door neighbour and best friend, Felicity Spoonsy, introduced her to cigarettes which got often got her in trouble and also seduced Gary Lovarik, whom Tegan fancied. (PROSE: The King of Terror [+]Loading...["The King of Terror (novel)"]) She went to school with another next door neighbour, Mike Bretherton, and was taught physics and chemistry by Miss Anderson. (AUDIO: Hexagora [+]Loading...["Hexagora (audio story)"]) When she was twelve, she played with Aboriginal children in the Outback at her uncle's farm. (PROSE: The Eight Doctors [+]Loading...["The Eight Doctors (novel)"])

At the age of thirteen, she made a deal with God that she would be good if He killed her grandmother, who died of a coronary thrombosis six weeks later. (PROSE: The King of Terror [+]Loading...["The King of Terror (novel)"]) She had been ill for more than six years, during which Tegan's parents kept her away to avoid upsetting her at so young an age. (AUDIO: Warzone [+]Loading...["Warzone (audio story)"]) When she was fifteen, she broke her toe during track and gym, so Mike carried her books home for her. They dated at some point after this incident and, despite breaking up, Tegan still remained fond of him. (AUDIO: Hexagora [+]Loading...["Hexagora (audio story)"]) She spent many a Saturday in Brisbane with her friends; Flis, Susannah, Dave and Richard, taking the ferry to the shops and buying clothes and records. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"]) She once went to France as an exchange student. (PROSE: The Crystal Bucephalus [+]Loading...["The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)"])

According to one account, her mother died of cancer in March 1975. Three years later when she turned 18 in 1978, Tegan legally changed her surname in honour of her mother, whose middle name was Jovanka. This deeply upset her father, who thought she did it to spite him. (PROSE: Little Did She Know [+]Loading...["Little Did She Know (short story)"])

Move to London[[edit] | [edit source]]

After William had an affair with a twenty-year-old typist, Tegan moved away to the coast with Joy and went to boarding school, where she studied for a few terms before being expelled. She ran away to Sydney and squatted in Kings Cross before her father found her and sent her to live with her aunt Vanessa in London, (PROSE: The King of Terror [+]Loading...["The King of Terror (novel)"]) who at some point gave her a purse. (AUDIO: Devil in the Mist [+]Loading...["Devil in the Mist (audio story)"]) When she was eighteen, she was obsessed with music, R-rated films and boys. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"])

Tegan later went to college (AUDIO: The Lady of Mercia [+]Loading...["The Lady of Mercia (audio story)"]) and studied foreign languages and Aboriginal culture, wanting to broaden her horizons and see the world. To that end, she spent most summers abroad, visiting Hong Kong in 1979 (PROSE: Cold Fusion [+]Loading...["Cold Fusion (novel)"]) but never visiting the United States (PROSE: The King of Terror [+]Loading...["The King of Terror (novel)"]) and not seeing much of Europe. (PROSE: Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"]) She would later remark that being stuck listening to arguments about politics reminded her of being in college. (AUDIO: The Great Beyond [+]Loading...["The Great Beyond (audio story)"]) Although she came from a Jewish family, Tegan was not religious. Despite this, she still prayed after her mother told her that Bill had been diagnosed with cancer and was retiring from the farm, giving it up to Tegan's uncle Richard. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"])

Bored of London and Brisbane (PROSE: Goth Opera [+]Loading...["Goth Opera (novel)"]) and believing that it would be "a glamorous something to do", Tegan decided to pursue a career as an air stewardess (PROSE: The King of Terror [+]Loading...["The King of Terror (novel)"]) and was hired by Air Australia, (PROSE: Time-Flight [+]Loading...["Time-Flight (novelisation)"]) after which she bought herself a cassette player as a reward. (AUDIO: The Contingency Club [+]Loading...["The Contingency Club (audio story)"]) Vanessa told her to give up the job should it ever stop being fun. (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)"])

First adventures[[edit] | [edit source]]

Joining the Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

Whilst taking Tegan to Heathrow Airport for her first day of work on 28 February 1981, Vanessa's car got a flat tyre near the Barnet Bypass and Tegan wandered into the TARDIS in search of help, leading to her unwittingly being taken to Logopolis with the Fourth Doctor and Adric and meeting Nyssa. She helped thwart the Master, whom she learnt had murdered Vanessa, and witnessed the Doctor's regeneration at the Pharos Project. (TV: Logopolis [+]Loading...["Logopolis (TV story)"]) She recognised that the Fifth Doctor needed a "responsible adult" to help him recover and that she was the only real candidate next to Adric and Nyssa. (PROSE: When It Was Fun [+]Loading...["When It Was Fun (short story)"])

Tegan helped get the Doctor to the TARDIS and, after jettisoning the Zero Room to avoid travelling to Event One, set the ship to materialise at Castrovalva to help his recovery, unaware that the Master had already made the kidnapped Adric pre-program the journey. She was fascinated by the history of Castrovalva, but the Doctor realised that it was a forgery and part of a trap by the Master which they managed to escape, returning to the TARDIS with Adric and leaving the Master behind as Castrovalva collapsed. Tegan was disappointed to learn that she had not actually piloted the TARDIS. (TV: Castrovalva [+]Loading...["Castrovalva (TV story)"])

Although the Doctor gave her a bedroom aboard the TARDIS, (AUDIO: Psychodrome [+]Loading...["Psychodrome (audio story)"]) Tegan wanted to be taken to Heathrow and continued to wear her uniform to remind the Doctor and herself of the fact. (PROSE: When It Was Fun [+]Loading...["When It Was Fun (short story)"]) She assumed that regeneration was a common occurrence and wondered when the Doctor would next change and what he would look like. (PROSE: Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"])

Aiming for Heathrow[[edit] | [edit source]]

This section's awfully stubby.

Further info from Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"] and Dream Team [+]Loading...["Dream Team (audio story)"] needs to be added

Not yet having had time to start mourning for Vanessa, Tegan subconsciously blamed the Doctor for her death and was mistrustful of Adric following the events on Castrovalva. Her perceptions of her companions created Professor Rickett, Magpie and Perditia after the TARDIS landed in a psychodrome and her memories of a corroboree she watched when she was young created a tribe of warriors. The four of them were able to start resolving their differences and work together to defeat King Magus and escape, after which she asked to be taken to Heathrow. (AUDIO: Psychodrome [+]Loading...["Psychodrome (audio story)"])

Three days after Logopolis, the TARDIS landed itself on a human colony where Tegan and Nyssa, after booking rooms at a hotel for the four travellers, met Chris Cwej, whose stereotypical depiction of an Australian offended Tegan. She was freed by the Doctor and Patience after she was arrested by the Adjudicators for consorting with aliens and worked with Nyssa and Chris to keep Adam from destroying the Scientifica with a fusion bomb which turned out to have been defused. She was eventually reunited with Adric and Nyssa (PROSE: Cold Fusion [+]Loading...["Cold Fusion (novel)"]) and found the Doctor unconscious, having been knocked out by Roz Forrester.

According to one account, the TARDIS crew went to a supermarket to buy food and encountered the Master. Tegan, the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa were trapped, but the Doctor freed them with his sonic screwdriver and they managed to escape the supermarket, which the Master had turned into a maze, and return to the TARDIS where the Doctor rested in the Zero Room. (PROSE: Dr. Fifth [+]Loading...["Dr. Fifth (novel)"]) Other accounts indicated that the Master remained trapped in Castrovalva until after Adric's death (TV: Time-Flight [+]Loading...["Time-Flight (TV story)"]; AUDIO: Smoke and Mirrors [+]Loading...["Smoke and Mirrors (audio story)"]) and that the Zero Room remained lost.

Tegan tried out the Doctor's dream machine and saw herself in a field of fragrant flowers. Shortly after, the TARDIS landed on Isopterus where termites captured Tegan, the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa to be eaten in the future, but they managed to escape with the other captives thanks to the Doctor using his dream machine to create images of food to distract the termites. (COMIC: On the Planet Isopterus [+]Loading...["On the Planet Isopterus (comic story)"])

An attempt to get to Heathrow resulted in the TARDIS landing in Eastern Europe in the 11th century where the three travellers became trapped in a town by a series of Mongol raids. Whilst the Doctor and Adric tried to make peace, Tegan and Nyssa were made to sew patches of leather together to make armour for the men of the town and briefly wondered if time had been changed. Adric later helped Mang make longbows to fight the Mongols and the townspeople considered relocating to Wales after Tegan mentioned it. (PROSE: The Immortals [+]Loading...["The Immortals (short story)"])

When strange equations appeared on the TARDIS console, Tegan left to look around a 1950s maternity ward and met Edward Grainger, comforting him when he told her how worried he was for his son, John. The TARDIS had disappeared by the time that she headed back and waited until her companions finally returned for her. (PROSE: First Born [+]Loading...["First Born (short story)"])

The Doctor detected an unusual energy emission on a planet and, in attempting to identify it, accidentally damaged the last of the Sanchopan Machines. This resulted in a dragon attack on a village from which the machine saved Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa by bringing them to its cavern where they were later joined by Adric and Sir Keeyoht, whom Tegan recognised as being based on the Fourth Doctor. After the Doctor deactivated the machine, its creations disappeared and the four travellers left.

The Doctor managed to pilot the TARDIS to 1981, but they instead materialised on board Monarch's ship where Tegan sketched a drawing of a fashionable man and woman, on which Persuasion and Enlightenment went on to base their humanoid forms. She met Kurkutji, whose dialect she was able to speak, and attempted to fly away in the TARDIS to avoid becoming an android, but she did not cover much distance and was eventually joined by the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa. With the time curve indicator repaired by Nyssa, the Doctor believed that he could get Tegan home. (TV: Four to Doomsday [+]Loading...["Four to Doomsday (TV story)"])

Tegan under the influence of the Mara. (TV: Kinda [+]Loading...["Kinda (TV story)"])

After both Nyssa and the Doctor collapsed, (AUDIO: Secrets of Telos [+]Loading...["Secrets of Telos (audio story)"]) Tegan, the Doctor and Adric admired Deva Loka whilst Nyssa slept. Tegan fell asleep at the Place of Great Dreamings where the Mara entered her mind, disturbing her with visions until she agreed that it could use her body, and she woke up two days later once the Mara had moved into Aris. She helped defeat the creature with mirrors, (TV: Kinda [+]Loading...["Kinda (TV story)"]) but part of it remained inside her head. (TV: Snakedance [+]Loading...["Snakedance (TV story)"])

Tegan found the prospect of leaving the TARDIS more difficult than she believed and gave Nyssa an emotional farewell, but the TARDIS instead landed in 1666 where the travellers met Richard Mace and found alien artefacts. She and Adric were captured by the Terileptils, but she managed to get Adric out before a control bracelet was put on her and she was made to assist them in wiping out humanity with plague. The Doctor managed to remove the bracelet's power pack and Tegan regained control, hitting a Terileptil with a gun before the Great Fire of London began. (TV: The Visitation [+]Loading...["The Visitation (TV story)"])

After escaping the Great Fire of London, the Celestial Toymaker attempted to turn them against one another, trying to do so with Tegan by showing her her father's funeral. (PROSE: Divided Loyalties [+]Loading...["Divided Loyalties (novel)"])

Tegan was still distressed by the events on Deva Loka when the TARDIS materialised in 9th century Iceland where she and Nyssa were welcomed by Revna Ulfsdottir, whose speculation Tegan went along with by claiming that she was a beaten wife exiled with her sister for adultery. She helped Revna and her daughters dig and hid with Inga Kundsdottir when they awoke the Ice Warriors, from whom they escaped in their own ship thanks to Adric. After the Ice Warriors were encased in lava, Tegan spoke with the morose Doctor about the possibility of changing the future just before he was temporally dislocated. (AUDIO: God of War [+]Loading...["God of War (audio story)"])

Deciding to stay[[edit] | [edit source]]

When the Doctor took his companions to Gallius U to help Adric learn to fly the TARDIS, Tegan was more interested in the observation deck than learning about astronomy and was arrested, but she and the Doctor earnt Kala Tace's trust and went with General Darren Fell in the Carl Sagan to investigate the attack on the Johannes Kepler. She was captured by Rovus and used as bait for the crew of the Sagan before escaping with Nomar to Heliopan, where they were soon joined by Nyssa. The trio were saved by Adric and Autumn Tace and travelled through a rift back to their universe, closing it behind them to prevent a Keltin invasion, but Autumn was killed. (AUDIO: The Star Men [+]Loading...["The Star Men (audio story)"])

The Doctor made another attempt to pilot the TARDIS to Heathrow, although Nyssa was no longer sure that Tegan still wanted to leave, but they instead arrived in the Contingency Club in 1864 when the TARDIS shut down to avoid triggering the Red Queen's spaceship's hyperspace jump. Tegan and the Doctor were expelled by the Edwards before meeting George Augustus, who later took Tegan captive and tied her in the cellar of the club with Nyssa and several explosives. She was able to render them useless thanks to knowledge gained from her cousins and got a dying Edward to evacuate the building, after which it collapsed and the TARDIS was buried, necessitating an extended stay in 19th century London. (AUDIO: The Contingency Club [+]Loading...["The Contingency Club (audio story)"])

Having given up on the Doctor's ability to get her back to Heathrow, Tegan persuaded Adric to fly the TARDIS himself by playing on his desire to be alone with the Doctor again. The Doctor and Nyssa's repairs to the ship led to Adric being transported to Zaltys and an attempt to locate him using the telepathic circuits caused Tegan to be transported aboard the Exemplar because of the telepathic conversation between Clarimonde and Perrault. She managed to escape the Exemplar with Lusca, who died to protect her from Sable and whom she mourned upon returning to the TARDIS. (AUDIO: Zaltys [+]Loading...["Zaltys (audio story)"])

Tegan was unhappy when the Doctor chose to answer a psionic beam rather than take her to Heathrow, but was excited to meet Harry Houdini and admitted as much when Nyssa asked about her enjoying her adventures. She, Adric and Nyssa stood watch when the Doctor and Houdini inspected an Ovid Sphere and accidentally wandered into a menagerie where they were separated, with Nyssa being hypnotised by the Master to help capture Tegan. The trio managed to escape after Tegan broke a lamp projecting the Master into a mirror, after which Tegan helped the Doctor soothe the Ovid Sphere with calming thoughts. (AUDIO: Smoke and Mirrors [+]Loading...["Smoke and Mirrors (audio story)"])

Tegan and Adric were arrested in Cardenas and, whilst awaiting an audience with Miranda, Duchess of Cardenas, Tegan admitted that she was enjoying her adventures in the TARDIS. Zaina ensured that the Duchess hired the two of them as her bodyguards and they worked to protect her from the Scorpion and his apprentice, initially unaware that they were the Doctor and Nyssa. Eventually, the real Scorpion arrived and Tegan helped distract her whilst the Doctor laid a trap which resulted in the Scorpion leaving Cicero Prime with the belief that she had killed the Duchess. (AUDIO: Kingdom of Lies [+]Loading...["Kingdom of Lies (audio story)"])

Responding to a distress call, the TARDIS landed in the catacombs beneath a city on 17th century Earth and Tegan remained with the Doctor when he attempted to send her, Adric and Nyssa to the future to escape from Sabaoth. Sabaoth used the TARDIS's telepathic circuits and her own energy to send her forward in time to serve as his anchor, resulting in her briefly possessing Katya in the 1980s before returning and being placed in a stasis chamber by the Doctor for her protection. He eventually woke her up some time after recovering Adric and Nyssa to help Leanne defeat Sabaoth in the 21st century. (AUDIO: Ghost Walk [+]Loading...["Ghost Walk (audio story)"])

The Doctor took his companions to Argentia in search of diothanine crystals and arrived at Carlo Mazzini's funeral, where Tegan and Joe Mazzini took a liking to one another. She was attacked by a Sugandian Normic whilst investigating Angelo Mazzini's murder and came to suspect Joe, but her speculation led the Doctor to deduce that time travel was involved and that he was definitely innocent. After the future Angelo died and Sofia Cozzi was arrested, Tegan declined to stay with Joe, an offer which she was tempted by given that she had feelings for him and he was able to take her back to Heathrow, as her friends needed her.

Tegan enjoyed her time in 1925, watching the Doctor play cricket and attending a fancy dress party at Cranleigh Hall where she danced with Sir Robert Muir and demonstrated her talent at dancing the Charleston. She stood up for the Doctor when he was accused of attacking Ann Talbot and she and the crew stayed for George Cranleigh's funeral, after which they were gifted the fancy dress costumes that the Cranleighs' had leant them. (TV: Black Orchid [+]Loading...["Black Orchid (TV story)"])

The Doctor took his companions to a planet without intelligent life for four days to relax and Tegan spent some time sunbathing. She wondered if the statues they found would come to life and hunt them down, which Adric thought was stupid, and they left after Adric tried to join the statues. (PROSE: Hearts of Stone [+]Loading...["Hearts of Stone (short story)"])

The TARDIS crew celebrated Christmas in the TARDIS and Tegan drank several bottles of Fosters. She refused to eat the Christmas pudding that the Doctor found in a cupboard and kicked over the one that Adric made using Block Transfer Computation when he refused to share it, after which Nyssa stuffed the pudding up Tegan's nose. (PROSE: In the TARDIS: Christmas Day [+]Loading...["In the TARDIS: Christmas Day (short story)"])

Tegan, the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa landed on a weapon test field where they were captured by the Rutans, who suspected them of being Sontaran spies. After escaping, they were captured by the Sontarans and released due to them not being considered a threat by Commander Strock. They returned to the TARDIS where Tegan, Adric and Nyssa were kidnapped by Adam Mitchell, (COMIC: In Their Nature [+]Loading...["In Their Nature (comic story)"]) but they were eventually saved by several of the Doctor's incarnations. (COMIC: Endgame [+]Loading...["Endgame (POT comic story)"])

The crew arrived on Lemaria during the celebration of Freedom Day and watched a reenactment of how the First Doctor and Susan Foreman saved the planet, making Tegan aware for the first time that the Doctor had a family.

Adric accused Tegan of being responsible for reprogramming the helmic regulator, but she denied it and argued with him and the Doctor. She was speechless when they found Nyssa in a telepathic fight with the Master and went back to arguing with Adric after Nyssa recovered. (AUDIO: The Toy [+]Loading...["The Toy (audio story)"])

Although Tegan was enjoying her adventures in the TARDIS, Adric and Nyssa decided to try to materialise at Heathrow as a test, but they instead landed on Fleming's Island in 1981 where the ship fell off of a cliff after they left it. She looked after Nyssa after she had a psychic shock in the Fleming mansion and helped investigate after the i were released from the computers and a predator came after them. She memorised a map which allowed her to lead the Doctor, Adric and Nyssa to the fallen TARDIS, outside of which the i captured the predator in a mathematical whirlpool which Tegan could not understand. (AUDIO: Iterations of I [+]Loading...["Iterations of I (audio story)"])

Tegan and Nyssa got the Doctor to make amends with Adric after the two argued about returning to E-Space and came across the skeleton of a dinosaur, which Tegan did not believe could have been killed by a meteor. The Doctor flew the TARDIS to find the creators of androids that they encountered and arrived on Briggs's freighter where they fought the Cybermen and Tegan risked her life to shoot one of them. She watched from the TARDIS as the freighter warped through time on a collision course with Adric still aboard, crashing into Earth and causing the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Left behind[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan felt that the Doctor was forgetting about Adric's death and asked him to go back and save him, but he refused and instead attempted to pilot the TARDIS to the Great Exhibition to cheer himself, Tegan and Nyssa up. They instead landed at 1980s Heathrow due to feedback from a Concorde being moved back in time by the Master and agreed to help investigate its disappearance, leading them to the Jurassic where Tegan got everybody back onto the aeroplane following the Master's defeat. Back at Heathrow, the Doctor and Nyssa left in the TARDIS to avoid having to explain themselves to Sheard, leaving Tegan behind. (TV: Time-Flight [+]Loading...["Time-Flight (TV story)"])

Tegan began her career as an air stewardess (TV: Arc of Infinity [+]Loading...["Arc of Infinity (TV story)"]) and once had to deal with a passenger on a flight to Brisbane who insisted on cutting his toenails in the plane.

After losing her job, Tegan caught the attention of the android Kylex-12, who identified her as a time traveller.

In January 1983, Tegan went to Amsterdam to visit her cousin Colin Frazer, only to find that he had disappeared, having been captured by Omega to lure Tegan to him. He used Tegan as leverage in his plan to create a new body for himself using the Doctor. Once the process was done and had begun to fail, Tegan reunited with the Doctor and Nyssa and watched Omega's defeat before he could revert to anti-matter and destroy Earth. (TV: Arc of Infinity [+]Loading...["Arc of Infinity (TV story)"])

Tegan was approached by Kyle, whom she rebuffed before he directed her and the Doctor to a Rembrandt van Rijn exhibit showcasing drawings of spacecraft. At the museum, they encountered the Nix and became aware of Teldek, later learning of Kyle's connection to her. After Teldek's defeat, Kyle accepted that Tegan did not love him and decided to continue living in the hope that he could find someone who would. The Doctor went on a number of adventures without Tegan and Nyssa, promising to return for them a few days later. (AUDIO: The Waters of Amsterdam [+]Loading...["The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)"])

In the Doctor's absence, Tegan stayed in Colin's room at the hostel with Nyssa and explored the city with her, introducing her to chocolate. When he returned for them, Tegan was annoyed to find that her things had been put in storage (AUDIO: The Elite [+]Loading...["The Elite (audio story)"]) and wondered how long her companions had been travelling without her, feeling slightly envious of their ability to work together.

According to one account, on Tegan's first morning back in the ship, the Dark influenced Nyssa and the Doctor used the telepathic circuits to pilot the TARDIS to Akoshemon's moon where the Dark was trapped. The Doctor later decided that it was time that Tegan and Nyssa learn how to read the TARDIS star charts, but they asked to do it in the morning and slept that night with their lights on as a result of their experience on Akoshemon's moon. (PROSE: Fear of the Dark [+]Loading...["Fear of the Dark (novel)"])

According to another account, Tegan's first adventure after rejoining the Doctor and Nyssa was to Florana, as the Doctor confided in Nyssa that he was concerned that Tegan's return would bring an end to the peace and quiet that they had enjoyed in her absence. There, Tegan and Nyssa were arrested on suspicion of being terrorists and separated by intellect, with Tegan being sent to work in the factories but being rescued by Garthak and his rebels. She helped the rebels in what she wanted to be a bloodless revolution and, following the deaths of the High Priest of Power and Father Thane, suggested that the TARDIS's next destination be Brisbane. (AUDIO: The Elite [+]Loading...["The Elite (audio story)"])

Tegan caught up with those that she knew in Brisbane and learnt that Mike Bretherton had mysteriously disappeared, leading her to insist that the Doctor and Nyssa help her investigate. Their search led them to follow the trace of two space pods to Lupara, where she found Sergeant Zax using Mike's body whilst Mike was trapped in Zax's Hexagoran form. She was uncomfortable with Mike's appearance, but was able to work with him and, after he returned to his body, she promised to visit him when she was back on Earth.

Following a message received from Queen Anahita, Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa travelled to the Imperial City in the Archipelago of Sirius and were initially mistaken for off-world guests of Siris's birthday celebrations. Queen Anahita covered for Tegan by claiming that she was her new servant after the Doctor and Nyssa were arrested, after which Tegan rescued the Doctor by kissing a guard with a paralysing agent and attempted to take the Doctor's copy of The Trick of Darkness to Anahita as he requested. Following the defeats of Byzan and Albis, Tegan confided in Nyssa that she had considered leaving the TARDIS and was happy when Nyssa confirmed that she planned on staying as well.

Not long after Tegan returned to the TARDIS, the Doctor was taken over by his temporally dislocated past self and they materialised on Captain Hopper's rocket. The rocket was attacked by Cybermen and they escaped with Professor Parry and Morton to Telos Minor where Tegan, Nyssa and Morton entered a cyber-factory to escape from Professor Vansom's cyber-animals. After Vansom died and the factory was destroyed, Tegan and Nyssa gave in and told the Doctor about Adric's death, despite Nyssa having originally advised against it, and he was pulled away by further time slippage.

A distress signal from Threll called the TARDIS to Aronassus 49 and Tegan and the Doctor travelled across the desert to Prime City whilst Nyssa remained behind in the ship.

Because Tegan and Nyssa were unable to find any pasta sauce in the TARDIS, the Doctor took them to Italy but landed in 5th century Ravenna instead of 2000s Rome as intended and they were welcomed by Flavius Theodoricus. They went back in time to when Theodoric was a child to learn how he had met them before and were freed by him after they were arrested for allegedly stealing the Crown of Byzantium. Tegan told him not to do anything in anger in the hopes that he would not kill Odoacer, but she found that he did so regardless as Odoacer would otherwise have killed him.

Afterwards, the Doctor returned for his companions, but Tegan did not feel that she was able to forgive him for abandoning them. (AUDIO: Madquake [+]Loading...["Madquake (audio story)"])

The Doctor attempted to pilot the TARDIS to Gallifrey so that he and his companions could talk with the help of an arbitrator, but they instead arrived at the Welkin Sanatorium where Tegan was especially rude following her recent experiences, offending Marc and Sylvie. She found Nora Edgecastle's body and, when the Doctor started seeing Adric, she assured the Doctor that he did not need to be so paternalistic with his companions nor blame himself for what happened to Adric or Marc.

On Mawdryn's spaceship in 1983, Tegan, the Doctor and Nyssa met Vislor Turlough and travelled to Earth in two groups to return him to Brendon School and disable a transmat signal jamming the TARDIS. Tegan and Nyssa instead arrived in 1977 and for a time mistook Mawdryn for a regenerated Doctor, leading Tegan to meet Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart whilst looking for help and take him to the TARDIS. She believed that Mawdryn's plan would make the Doctor a murderer, but was thankful to the Doctor when he was willing to give up his regenerations to save her and Nyssa, She was unhappy with Turlough, whom she distrusted, joining them on their travels. (TV: Mawdryn Undead [+]Loading...["Mawdryn Undead (TV story)"])

Tegan made her suspicions of Turlough well-known whilst Nyssa was more open-minded. After Turlough hit the landing gear and made the TARDIS land in the Gardens of the Dead, Tegan went after Nyssa and found a man who had been suffocated by the psychic dust. She later struggled to keep the same thing from happening to the Doctor and sent Turlough into the TARDIS to collect water to turn the dust into mud.

When Nyssa told her that she intended to remain on Terminus, she hoped that the Doctor would be able to talk her out of it before giving her a hug goodbye. (TV: Terminus [+]Loading...["Terminus (TV story)"])

The Doctor left Tegan in the TARDIS after the White Guardian attempted to make contact, believing her to be more reliable than Turlough due to him having run away whilst on Terminus, but she left after seeing Marriner fall on the scanner. She was able to close her mind to him and rejected him as she recognised that he wanted to live vicariously through her and had no regard for any other Ephemerals, including Turlough when he jumped overboard. Upon learning of Turlough's pact with the Black Guardian, she told the Doctor that he was mad to believe that Turlough had never wanted the agreement. (TV: Enlightenment [+]Loading...["Enlightenment (TV story)"])

Tegan did not trust Turlough, frustrating him and leading him to storm out of the TARDIS into 1905 Buzzard Creek.

After arguing with the Doctor about Turlough being aboard the TARDIS, Tegan relented and told Turlough that he did not have to leave on her account and the two of them were reluctant to leave the ship and help the Doctor and Nyssa, who had last seen them fifty years ago from her perspective but two days from their own, after seeing what appeared to be the group's skeletons. They soon reconsidered and joined them in looking for a cure for Richter's Syndrome and to solve the mystery of the skeletons, which turned out to have been made by EDGAR.

Although Tegan wanted to go somewhere exciting, the Doctor took his companions to the Citadel of Samur so that Tegan could relax following their encounter with the Mara.

She threw a knife at the Master when he made his presence known and managed to dematerialise the TARDIS to distract Ranulf and Hugh Fitzwilliam when they accused the Doctor of killing Geoffrey de Lacy. When she returned, she was introduced to Kamelion, whom she did not trust nor want aboard the TARDIS because he was a robot. (TV: The King's Demons [+]Loading...["The King's Demons (TV story)"])

Tegan accused Kamelion of sabotage when she saw him under the TARDIS console, not realising that he was helping the Doctor, and found herself crashing on Rastana with him and Orna after the Harrigain ship that the TARDIS landed on split in half. Kamelion saved her from drowning, but he seemed to come under the control of Nustanu and, when he briefly returned to his usual form, Tegan showed no interest in saving him. She eventually learnt that he was actually being influenced by her prejudice and, upon returning to the TARDIS, she offered to help him clear up the console room.

She was detained by Brazen after Plantagenet was taken, but escaped by causing a flash with power cables and went into the Tractators' tunnels with the Doctor where they met the Gravis. The Doctor tricked the Gravis into isolating himself from the other Tractators and went with Tegan to drop him off on an uninhabited planet, temporarily leaving Turlough behind.

According to one account, Tegan and the Doctor dropped the Gravis off on Kolkokron whilst he was still dormant and then went to Africa at the end of Earth. The Doctor intended to return to Frontios to pick up Turlough, but wondered if there might be issues getting back there immediately due to their side trip. (PROSE: Perfect Day [+]Loading...["Perfect Day (short story)"])

According to another account, the Gravis was no longer dormant and his enthusiasm for the mundane frustrated Tegan during the twelve-hour journey to Kolkokron. She wanted to leave him behind and return to Frontios when the TARDIS instead landed on Queth, calling him a murderer, but the Doctor insisted that they stay to investigate. Upon realising that the Queeth had to become their own ancestors, Tegan and the Doctor left the Gravis on Kolkokron and took the Queeth back in time. (PROSE: Life After Queth [+]Loading...["Life After Queth (short story)"])

The Doctor received a distress call on the way back to Frontios and took Tegan to Salient Point where she met Vivash O'Connell, the sole survivor of a human colony ship who reprogrammed the food replicator to make it Christmas every day. They intended to take him to Frontios and had Christmas dinner with him in the console room, which Tegan was surprised to find that she enjoyed, but the TARDIS picked up another distress call during the journey. (PROSE: Keeping It Real [+]Loading...["Keeping It Real (short story)"])

Tegan and the Doctor arrived in mediaeval Great Britain and met King Arthur, quickly deducing that his Merlin was the Master and that he planned to prevent Arthur's unification of Britain. The King sent the Master to his rooms to await his judgement, but he departed in his TARDIS and Tegan and the Doctor were left to ensure that established history was adhered to by suggesting a Round Table. (PROSE: The Creation of Camelot [+]Loading...["The Creation of Camelot (short story)"])

To persuade the Mekon to donate money to charity, Tegan and the Doctor went with the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Sixth and Seventh Doctors, as well as Susan Foreman, Victoria Waterfield, Leela, K9 Mark I and Ace to 1991, where the Second Doctor hit the Mekon in the face with a box of red noses. (COMIC: The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic [+]Loading...["The Totally Stonking, Surprisingly Educational And Utterly Mindboggling Comic Relief Comic (comic story)"])

Tegan and the Doctor landed on Artaris where they soon got into an argument about how they had failed to get to Frontios, leading the Doctor to send Tegan to wait in the TARDIS and go out to explore whilst the time engine rested. (AUDIO: Excelis Dawns [+]Loading...["Excelis Dawns (audio story)"])

Tegan went with the Doctor to kill Ann's child, but he did not go through with it and she deemed the trip a waste of time. As they left, she reminded him that the child would grow to be a monster and complained about the rudeness of Sarah Jane Smith, who had strongly disagreed with the Doctor. (PROSE: Categorical Imperative [+]Loading...["Categorical Imperative (short story)"])

Tegan and the Doctor once had what the Seventh Doctor remembered as a "particularly lively visit" to Nocturne (AUDIO: Nocturne [+]Loading...["Nocturne (audio story)"]) and attended Elizabeth II's coronation. (COMIC: Where's the Doctor? [+]Loading...["Where's the Doctor? (comic story)"])

Tegan and the Doctor were summoned to Gallifrey where she met Leela and became Earth Ambassador to Gallifrey otherwise she would have had her memories wiped. She went on an Ambassadorial trip to one of the former Enemies of the Time Lords and worked out a way to de-escalate a situation with Sugru. She was later kidnapped by Scandrius who wanted to explore the universe. She got lost in the New Capitol. (AUDIO: Time in Office [+]Loading...["Time in Office (audio story)"])

Tegan and the Doctor eventually arrived back on Frontios and, after ensuring that Range and Norna would keep their presence there secret to keep the Time Lords from finding out, left with Turlough. The TARDIS was pulled towards the centre of the universe, for which Tegan initially thought that the Gravis might somehow be responsible. (TV: Frontios [+]Loading...["Frontios (TV story)"])

Departure[[edit] | [edit source]]

After leaving Frontios, the TARDIS materialised in Snowdonia where Tegan was greatly upset when Prodigal and her human-Autons killed several UNIT soldiers and shot Turlough, whom she momentarily believed was dead. The two companions were taken aboard a vortex driller where Tegan came to sympathise with Prodigal, who asked her if life with the Doctor was rewarding and died wearing her face, hoping that Tegan would find a place of her own in the world. She realised the amount of death that she saw in her life with the Doctor and, following the defeat of the First Consciousness, she returned to the TARDIS with the Doctor and Turlough and was caught in a time corridor. (AUDIO: The Auton Infinity [+]Loading...["The Auton Infinity (audio story)"])

Tegan says goodbye to the Doctor. (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)"])

A time corridor dragged the TARDIS to 1984 London where Tegan was knocked out after coming across a Dalek. She helped to defeat them, but the carnage of the Dalek civil war disillusioned her to her travels in the TARDIS. Remembering what Vanessa had told her when she started her job as an air stewardess, she bid an emotional and accusatory farewell to the Doctor and Turlough and ran off before the Doctor could respond.

Even so, she ran back in time to see the TARDIS dematerialise, calling out her goodbyes. (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)"]) She left the warehouse and escaped from Gustave Lytton's policemen by jumping onto a boat. (PROSE: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (novelisation)"])

Unbeknownst to her, Tegan left the TARDIS with damage to her brain which would result in a tumour. She would later ascribe it to the numerous times she was knocked out or possessed. (AUDIO: The Gathering [+]Loading...["The Gathering (audio story)"])

Later life[[edit] | [edit source]]

Settling down[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan was left on Earth with no money, no possessions and no explanation of where she had been for three years. (PROSE: Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"]) She returned to Brisbane using money that her family wired to her so that she might leave London (PROSE: Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat [+]Loading...["Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat (short story)"]) and then spent several weeks travelling around the globe, dropping in on friends in Melbourne and London.

After several weeks of travelling, which she found dull, Tegan decided to get her job as an air stewardess back and wrote a letter to the airline which she did not receive a response to. She then left a telephone message and, when she did not hear back, she went to the airline offices and demanded to speak with the personnel director. She managed to get her job back and was to begin on 23 February 1985. At some point before this date, she met a nice man who made her feel settled. (PROSE: Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"])

Meeting the Sixth Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

Further info from Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"] needs to be added

On her first morning back at the airport as a stewardess, (PROSE: Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"]) just as she was about to eat lunch, Tegan was teleported into the TARDIS after the Sixth Doctor accidentally activated the matter transporter. Despite her grievances, she helped isolate the power to the control room to stop Group Marshal Nathan and his subordinate from using the TARDIS to detonate a vitrox bomb, in the course of which she accidentally transported Gareth Jenkins aboard. She was afraid upon seeing the Tenth Sontaran Battle Brigade on the TARDIS scanner. (HOMEVID: A Fix with Sontarans [+]Loading...["A Fix with Sontarans (home video)"])

After the adventure, Tegan and the Doctor reconciled for a time and she was returned to Heathrow. She later recalled the experience as either cinematic and terrifying or comedic and silly, depending on how she looked at it. (PROSE: Fixing a Hole [+]Loading...["Fixing a Hole (short story)"])

Back in Australia[[edit] | [edit source]]

By 1987, Tegan was running her father's farm (PROSE: Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat [+]Loading...["Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat (short story)"]) and rarely thought about her adventures in the TARDIS, (AUDIO: The Gathering [+]Loading...["The Gathering (audio story)"]) although she did give an interview to River Song (PROSE: When It Was Fun [+]Loading...["When It Was Fun (short story)"]) and was, at some point, interviewed by UNIT before having her mind wiped. (TV: The Day of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Day of the Doctor (TV story)"])

The Doctor visited her in 1987 to reassure her that she did not have to worry about the Mara, as well as that her father would survive the snake bite that he suffered. (PROSE: Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat [+]Loading...["Encounter on Burnt Snake Flat (short story)"]) When the Doctor was regenerating, he reached out psychically to his companions. Tegan said "brave heart" and told him that he would survive. (AUDIO: Winter [+]Loading...["Winter (audio story)"]; TV: The Caves of Androzani [+]Loading...["The Caves of Androzani (TV story)"])

After her father died, she took over his animal feed company Verney Food Supplies, a job that she did not find especially fulfilling. She lived a normal life with few friends other than colleagues that she did not like. (AUDIO: The Gathering [+]Loading...["The Gathering (audio story)"])

In the 1990s, Tegan answered a small advert in Time Out magazine which called for anybody who knew what the word "TARDIS" meant. She went to London where she was reunited with Sarah Jane Smith and met Liz Shaw, Jo Grant and Dorothy McShane and reminisced with them over wine, although she was less positive than the others. (PROSE: Girls' Night In [+]Loading...["Girls' Night In (short story)"])

Reunions[[edit] | [edit source]]

This section's awfully stubby.

Further info on the actual events of The Gathering [+]Loading...["The Gathering (audio story)"] needs to be added

Tegan embarked on a romantic relationship with Michael Tanaka, a colleague of hers. However, she ended the relationship in 2006 after discovering that she had an inoperable brain tumour which she suspected was the result of her TARDIS misadventures. She was told that she was unlikely to live more than a year. On her birthday that year, she was reunited with the Doctor and refused his offer of travelling again or finding a cure, telling him that she was happy with her life. She resumed her relationship with Michael.

Despite only having been given a year to live, (AUDIO: The Gathering [+]Loading...["The Gathering (audio story)"]) Tegan was still alive in 2010, by which time she was, according to Sarah Jane Smith's research, campaigning for Aboriginal rights. (TV: Death of the Doctor [+]Loading...["Death of the Doctor (TV story)"])

Accounts set during this period often disagreed on Tegan's romantic life: according to some, she entered into a relationship with Nyssa, (WC: Farewell, Sarah Jane [+]Loading...["Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)"], PROSE: The Doctor's Companions [+]Loading...{"page":"15","1":"The Doctor's Companions (feature)"}, etc.) whilst other accounts inferred that Tegan was heterosexual, (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"], WC: The Passenger [+]Loading...["The Passenger (webcast)"], etc.) the latter account further implying Tegan's relationship with Nyssa was in a different universe, (WC: The Passenger [+]Loading...["The Passenger (webcast)"]) whilst another, linked account listed "Haybourne" as one of several surnames used by Tegan, (PROSE: TARDIS Data File: Tegan) matching a further, much contradictory account of Tegan's life and marriage in the 2020s. (PROSE: Good Companions [+]Loading...["Good Companions (short story)"])

As a couple, Tegan and Nyssa attended Sarah's funeral one spring day. The pair discussed Sarah with the other guests and helped fight the Jackals of the Backwards Clock. (WC: Farewell, Sarah Jane [+]Loading...["Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)"])

Meeting the Thirteenth Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan is taunted by the Spy Master. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"])

By 2022, Tegan had "seen off" two husbands and adopted a son whom she went six weeks without hearing from. She claimed to have spent her time since leaving the Doctor living "like a nomad" and helping people, a lifestyle which involved removing land mines, partaking in coups, being hijacked and almost drowning.

In 2022, Tegan assisted the Thirteenth Doctor, Yasmin Khan, Ace and UNIT against the combined forces of the Spy Master, the Daleks, Ashad and his Cyber-Warriors, and the CyberMasters. About a month later, she joined a support group for other people who had travelled with the Doctor, including Yasmin Khan, Dan Lewis, Graham O'Brien, Ian Chesterton, Jo Jones, Melanie Bush, Ace and Kate Stewart. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"])

Tegan and the Doctor in the remembered TARDIS. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"])

Tegan later materialised in a remembered TARDIS, just after she had said goodnight to Nyssa. She reunited with the Fifth Doctor, and the pair remembered the day Adric died fighting the Cybermen. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"])

At some point afterwards, the Mara resurfaced in a dream of Tegan's, in another attempt to possess her. It tried to tempt her with a reunion with Nyssa, but Tegan refused, with Nyssa's voice claiming that they were "together" in another universe. Upon awakening, Tegan defiantly told the Mara that it was nothing compared to the other monsters and horrors she had encountered, and she bluntly told it to get "back in [its] box". (WC: The Passenger [+]Loading...["The Passenger (webcast)"])

Marriage and widowhood[[edit] | [edit source]]

According to one account, by the 2020s, Tegan had had a breakdown and was sent to Shawlands for therapy due to her stories about her time in the TARDIS, which were not only considered fanciful but also embarrassing for the government. She came to believe that her memories were delusions stemming from her trauma following Vanessa's death. Whilst at therapy, she developed her writing skills. She married Dr William Haybourne and lived with him in Cambridge after he was appointed chair at St Cedd's College, writing a book called Good Companions.

Fifty years after Vanessa's death and ten years after the Haybournes' wedding, William fell ill whilst giving a lecture and died. On her way back to her empty home from the funeral in Exeter, Tegan met an incarnation of the Doctor that she did not know, calling himself Dr Smith, on a train. Although she played a role in helping defeat the Sigrarnons, she believed that it was a dream and parted ways with him. After sorting out the matter of William's estate with their lawyer, she went looking for Dr Smith's house, which she had visited, but was told by a policeman that there had not been a house at that address for years. (PROSE: Good Companions [+]Loading...["Good Companions (short story)"]) Curiously, an account linked to other, differing accounts of Tegan's life in the 2020s, listed "Haybourne" among Tegan's various surnames. (PROSE: TARDIS Data File: Tegan)

Legacy[[edit] | [edit source]]

When the Eleventh Doctor accidentally materialised in 19th century Yorkshire, he defended to Clara Oswald that his piloting was much better than it used to be, recalling that he'd spent "a hell of a long time" trying to get "a gobby Australian" back to Heathrow Airport. Though by this stage of his life, the Doctor had forgotten why Tegan had been so eager to return. (TV: The Crimson Horror [+]Loading...["The Crimson Horror (TV story)"])

Personality[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan was stubborn, loud and direct, describing herself as "just a mouth on legs". (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TV story)"]) Although she did often bicker with her fellow travellers, she was intrinsically honest and moral, qualities that the Fifth Doctor noted made her a good coordinator. (TV: Castrovalva [+]Loading...["Castrovalva (TV story)"]) She was also more likely to detect a threat to the Doctor's safety than her fellow companions. (TV: Castrovalva [+]Loading...["Castrovalva (TV story)"], Mawdryn Undead [+]Loading...["Mawdryn Undead (TV story)"]) Nonetheless, she was described by Adric as "unreasonably highly strung", (AUDIO: The Toy [+]Loading...["The Toy (audio story)"]) by Iris Wildthyme as "shrill" (AUDIO: Excelis Dawns [+]Loading...["Excelis Dawns (audio story)"]) and by the Eleventh Doctor as a "gobby Australian". (TV: The Crimson Horror [+]Loading...["The Crimson Horror (TV story)"])

In terms of her personal politics, Tegan described herself as "a fully paid up Aussie republican". (AUDIO: The Children of Seth [+]Loading...["The Children of Seth (audio story)"]) She was sickened by blood sports (AUDIO: Equilibrium [+]Loading...["Equilibrium (audio story)"]) and violence, (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)"]) but was willing to resort to violence in extreme circumstances. She threw a knife at the Tremas Master when he threatened the Doctor (TV: The King's Demons [+]Loading...["The King's Demons (TV story)"]) and killed a Cyberman with its own gun. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TV story)"])

Tegan initially was prejudiced against Kamelion because he was a robot and wanted to look for an excuse to get rid of him, (TV: The King's Demons [+]Loading...["The King's Demons (TV story)"]) only seeing her error when her prejudice caused him to go crazy and take Nustanu's form, endangering everyone.  (AUDIO: Devil in the Mist [+]Loading...["Devil in the Mist (audio story)"])

Tegan was a talented artist, sketching the latest 1980s fashions on Earth for Enlightenment (TV: Four to Doomsday [+]Loading...["Four to Doomsday (TV story)"]) and a pair of Cybermen. (PROSE: Lackaday Express [+]Loading...["Lackaday Express (short story)"]) However, she was not a fan of modern art. (AUDIO: The Waters of Amsterdam [+]Loading...["The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)"]) She was a skilled linguist, studying foreign languages at college (PROSE: Cold Fusion [+]Loading...["Cold Fusion (novel)"]) and being able to speak an Aboriginal language fluently. (TV: Four to Doomsday [+]Loading...["Four to Doomsday (TV story)"]) She was sympathetic to the status of the Aboriginal people in her time and campaigned for their rights in the 21st century. (TV: Death of the Doctor [+]Loading...["Death of the Doctor (TV story)"])

Tegan and Nyssa. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TV story)"])

She considered Nyssa to be her best friend (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger [+]Loading...["The Emerald Tiger (audio story)"]) and was greatly saddened when she first left the TARDIS, (TV: Terminus [+]Loading...["Terminus (TV story)"]) once saying that Nyssa was "too good for this world" and that she wanted to be more like her. (AUDIO: Aquitaine [+]Loading...["Aquitaine (audio story)"]) When Geoff Paynter called her a lesbian, Tegan ignored him and then called him a moron. (PROSE: The King of Terror [+]Loading...["The King of Terror (novel)"]) However, the Mara, which knew all of Tegan's thoughts, implied that she did indeed harbour passionate feelings for Nyssa and it tried to use this to tempt her. (WC: The Passenger) Some accounts asserted that when Nyssa settled down on Earth, Tegan entered into a relationship with her, (WC: Farewell, Sarah Jane [+]Loading...["Farewell, Sarah Jane (webcast)"], TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TotT TV story)"], PROSE: The Doctor's Companions [+]Loading...{"page":"15","1":"The Doctor's Companions (feature)"}) although others showed that she only ever had romantic relationships with men. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"], PROSE: TARDIS Data File: Tegan, Good Companions [+]Loading...["Good Companions (short story)"])

Although Tegan often found it hard to cope with Adric due to his apparent chauvinism, (TV: Four to Doomsday [+]Loading...["Four to Doomsday (TV story)"]) she did care for him and was upset by his death (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TV story)"]) and  indignant at the Doctor's apparent refusal to save Adric's life, even though he mentioned the destructive consequences of messing with time. (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TV story)"])

Tegan claimed that the Doctor often gave her "half pained, half patronising" looks and later described him as the most annoying man that she had ever met. (AUDIO: Aquitaine [+]Loading...["Aquitaine (audio story)"]) On one occasion, she derisively referred to the Doctor as a "posho". (AUDIO: The Peterloo Massacre [+]Loading...["The Peterloo Massacre (audio story)"]) Despite this, the Doctor said that she was "very dear" to him, (AUDIO: The Emerald Tiger [+]Loading...["The Emerald Tiger (audio story)"]) and the two admitted missing each other. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"])

The Doctor often encouraged her to find her inner strength with the words, "Brave heart, Tegan". (TV: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (TV story)"], Enlightenment [+]Loading...["Enlightenment (TV story)"], Warriors of the Deep [+]Loading...["Warriors of the Deep (TV story)"], The Awakening [+]Loading...["The Awakening (TV story)"]) Although she told him that she found it annoying and asked him never to say it again, he did so on numerous subsequent occasions. (AUDIO: Psychodrome [+]Loading...["Psychodrome (audio story)"]) He saw her saying the phrase back to him as he regenerated. (TV: The Caves of Androzani [+]Loading...["The Caves of Androzani (TV story)"]) On one occasion, Tegan said, "Brave heart" to encourage Nyssa. (AUDIO: The Star Men [+]Loading...["The Star Men (audio story)"]) She muttered those words to herself after leaving the TARDIS and watching it dematerialise, (TV: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (TV story)"]) and was genuinely pleased to hear those words used to encourage her by the Thirteenth Doctor's hologram in the form of the Fifth to fight Ashad and his Cyber-Warriors. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"])

She was a fan of Talking Heads (AUDIO: The Waters of Amsterdam [+]Loading...["The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)"]) and had seen Blake's 7. (PROSE: Cold Fusion [+]Loading...["Cold Fusion (novel)"]) Accounts differed on whether she was passionate about cricket (PROSE: Black Orchid [+]Loading...["Black Orchid (novelisation)"]) or found it boring. (PROSE: Goth Opera [+]Loading...["Goth Opera (novel)"]) She was not much of a tea drinker. (PROSE: Resurrection of the Daleks [+]Loading...["Resurrection of the Daleks (novelisation)"])

Appearance[[edit] | [edit source]]

Tegan was small, slender (PROSE: Arc of Infinity [+]Loading...["Arc of Infinity (novelisation)"]) and attractive, (PROSE: Warriors of the Deep [+]Loading...["Warriors of the Deep (novelisation)"]) with aggressively close-cropped, dark auburn hair. (PROSE: Kinda [+]Loading...["Kinda (novelisation)"], The Eight Doctors [+]Loading...["The Eight Doctors (novel)"]) She gave out an efficient and determined aura. (PROSE: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (novelisation)"])

When she first travelled with the Doctor, she wore a mauve uniform skirt and a lavender blouse (TV: Logopolis [+]Loading...["Logopolis (TV story)"], etc.) with stylish shoes, (PROSE: Earthshock [+]Loading...["Earthshock (novelisation)"]) which she kept on to remind the Doctor that she wished to return home. (PROSE: When It Was Fun [+]Loading...["When It Was Fun (short story)"]) She did, however, change into a "spritely confection" of a mint green taffeta dress with a pink skirt for the party at Cranleigh Hall. (PROSE: Black Orchid [+]Loading...["Black Orchid (novelisation)"])

Upon reuniting with the Doctor and Nyssa, Tegan wore a white jacket with matching shorts and a white camisole top, (PROSE: Arc of Infinity [+]Loading...["Arc of Infinity (novelisation)"]) an outfit that she wore for some time due to her possessions having been stored away. (AUDIO: The Waters of Amsterdam [+]Loading...["The Waters of Amsterdam (audio story)"]) She also wore a rainbow dress (TV: Warriors of the Deep [+]Loading...["Warriors of the Deep (TV story)"]) with an ivory sash about her waist. (PROSE: Warriors of the Deep [+]Loading...["Warriors of the Deep (novelisation)"], The Eight Doctors [+]Loading...["The Eight Doctors (novel)"])

When she met the Thirteenth Doctor, her hair went down to her chin. She wore a double-breasted trenchcoat in grey with a steel blue trim, a sky blue shirt, denim jeans, and practical trainers. (TV: The Power of the Doctor [+]Loading...["The Power of the Doctor (TV story)"], WC: The Passenger [+]Loading...["The Passenger (webcast)"], GAME: Lost in Time [+]Loading...["Lost in Time (video game)"])

In her seventies, Tegan had hair as grey as a winter's day, having allowed her colour to grow out when she was sixty. Her hair reminded her of her mother's. (PROSE: Good Companions [+]Loading...["Good Companions (short story)"])
