The "'''Bad Wolf'''" was an entity that [[Rose Tyler]] briefly became after staring into the [[Heart of the TARDIS|heart of the Doctor's TARDIS]] and directly into the [[Time Vortex]]. The Bad Wolf [[Bad Wolf meme|scattered her name]] throughout [[time]] as a sign to herself that she was linked to the [[Ninth Doctor]], creating a looped [[Temporal paradox|ontological paradox]].


After looking into the [[Heart of the TARDIS]], Vortex energy (if not the [[Time Vortex]] itself) filled [[Rose Tyler]], who then temporarily became the '''Bad Wolf entity'''.  
After surrendering her powers as the Bad Wolf, all Rose could remember was a mysterious "singing" in her head. Indeed, by one account, [[musician]]s were able to call down the power of the Bad Wolf across time by playing that ethereal piece of music.

===Rose Tyler as the Bad Wolf===
=== At the Battle of the Game Station ===
Newly empowered, she piloted the [[the Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] back to [[Ninth Doctor|the Doctor]]. A nimbus of light surrounded her and shone through her eyes. Rose's natural [[London]] accent vanished. She also possessed the destructive and creative powers of a goddess, enabling her to destroy an entire [[Dalek]] fleet and have an enormous influence over time and space.
[[File:Rose heart tardis.jpg|thumb|Rose Tyler stares into the Time Vortex. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Parting of the Ways (TV story)}})]]
After looking into the [[Heart of the TARDIS]], newly empowered, Rose Tyler piloted [[the Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]] back to the [[Ninth Doctor]] on the [[Satellite Five|Game Station]]. Interrupting the Daleks' plans to exterminate the Doctor, Rose, as the Bad Wolf, explained what she had done and then spread the words "[[Bad Wolf meme|Bad Wolf]]" throughout time and space. In doing this, she ensured that the Doctor and Rose's past selves would eventually follow the clues that would lead them to this moment, creating an ontological [[temporal paradox|paradox]]. The Bad Wolf then destroyed the Dalek fleet and all the Daleks on Satellite Five, including the [[Dalek Emperor]]. She also altered reality to bring [[Captain]] [[Jack Harkness]] back from death. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Parting of the Ways (TV story)}})


[[File:Picture2.png|thumb|left|265px|Rose stares into the [[Time Vortex]] and the entity is "born"]]
Jack later discovered he could apparently no longer die by any means, and it took him nearly a century and a half of subjective time before he finally learned that she was responsible. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Utopia (TV story)}}) As the instigator of Jack's immortality, Bad Wolf was therefore indirectly responsible for the event known as [[Miracle Day]] on Earth. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The New World (TV story)}}, et al.)


While possessed of these gifts, the entity set out to spread the [[Bad Wolf meme]] through many worlds and times. In this way, [[Ninth Doctor|the Doctor]] and Rose's past selves would eventually follow the clues that would enable them to defeat the Daleks, creating an ontological [[temporal paradox|paradox]] in the process. Apart from the Dalek fleet, Rose also destroyed all the Daleks on [[Satellite Five]]. She also altered reality to prevent the death of[[Jack Harkness]] ([[DW]]: ''[[The Parting of the Ways]]'').
Rose was unable to hold the power permanently without burning up, and the Ninth Doctor restored Rose's human self by absorbing the Vortex energy into his own body, a process that would prove destructive to his cellular structure and so prompt his next [[regeneration]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|The Parting of the Ways (TV story)}}) Rose subsequently lost most of her memory of her time as the Bad Wolf, saying that the knowledge had been locked, as if it was "forbidden", and it was stated that Rose trying to repeat it could cause the universe to explode.

At some point during her travels with the [[Tenth Doctor]], Rose learned of what she did as the Bad Wolf. Facing a [[Dalek (I Am a Dalek)|lone Dalek]] at [[Crediton Vale]], Rose recalled this only for the Doctor to deny her implicit suggestion, warning that another attempt could destroy [[the universe]]. ([[PROSE]]: {{cs|I Am a Dalek (novel)}}) She later boasted that she killed the Dalek Emperor when she thought the [[Cult of Skaro]] were going to kill her soon anyway.

She told this to [[Gabby Gonzalez]], a companion of the Tenth Doctor, when she found her floating through the Vortex.

To mark his victory, Davros ordered the orchestra to play Dalek music celebrating destruction. However, before the Daleks could stop them, the musicians began playing an ethereal music which invoked the power of the Bad Wolf entity, banishing the Daleks and Davros back through time in a red glow surrounded by golden sparks.

The "Bad Wolf" was an entity that Rose Tyler briefly became after staring into the heart of the Doctor's TARDIS and directly into the Time Vortex. The Bad Wolf scattered her name throughout time as a sign to herself that she was linked to the Ninth Doctor, creating a looped ontological paradox.

After surrendering her powers as the Bad Wolf, all Rose could remember was a mysterious "singing" in her head. Indeed, by one account, musicians were able to call down the power of the Bad Wolf across time by playing that ethereal piece of music.

Biography[[edit]]

At the Battle of the Game Station[[edit]]

Rose Tyler stares into the Time Vortex. (TV: The Parting of the Ways [+]Loading...["The Parting of the Ways (TV story)"])

After looking into the Heart of the TARDIS, newly empowered, Rose Tyler piloted the TARDIS back to the Ninth Doctor on the Game Station. Interrupting the Daleks' plans to exterminate the Doctor, Rose, as the Bad Wolf, explained what she had done and then spread the words "Bad Wolf" throughout time and space. In doing this, she ensured that the Doctor and Rose's past selves would eventually follow the clues that would lead them to this moment, creating an ontological paradox. The Bad Wolf then destroyed the Dalek fleet and all the Daleks on Satellite Five, including the Dalek Emperor. She also altered reality to bring Captain Jack Harkness back from death.
