The death of the Master's fifteenth incarnation was acknowledged by Missy, herself a product of the Master's eighteenth death, on her Spacebook profile. (PROSE: Girl Power!)
Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Invalid sources[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Doctor Who Role Playing Game by FASA, which admits to taking liberties with the source material in its opening pages, gives a rundown of the Master's first thirteen incarnations in "The Master" supplement book, which was similar to (but not entirely consistent with) the in-universe biography given for the Master in FASA's own CIA File Extracts.
The Master assumed what was identified as his fourteenth incarnation when his decaying, thirteenth body possessed the body of Tremas. This new form was not unlike his earlier appearance but appeared younger with dark brown hair. An attractive man who appeared middle-aged when in reality he was over 900 years old, the Master had an average height and build and was distinguished by his satanic beard and grey eyes whilst wearing a black tunic and gloves. As this body was not Gallifreyan, the Master lacked the natural ability to regenerate, however, exposure to the Numismaton Gas of the planet Sarn gave the Master considerable powers which included the ability to re-trigger a life cycle of regenerations in his stolen body. Escaping his fiery death, the Master regenerated into a fifteenth incarnation with a form identical to that of his previous incarnation.
Other matters[[edit] | [edit source]]
In 2023, a fan-made infographic of the Master's incarnations which identified both the War Master as played by Derek Jacobi and the Child Master, interpreted as a regression of the Jacobi Master, as the "Fifteenth Master", between the Reborn Master and the Saxon Master, was retweeted by the official Big Finish Productions Twitter account, who compared the character profiles to "new Weetabix cards".[1]
