Lord '''Ferain''' was a [[Time Lord]] [[Director of Allegiance]] for the [[Celestial Intervention Agency]].


'''Lord Ferain''' informed the [[Fourth Doctor]] that the [[Time Lord]]s had foreseen a time where the [[Dalek]]s would dominate the [[universe]]. He sent the Doctor on a mission back in time to either avert the Daleks' creation, make them less aggressive, or find some inherent weakness in their makeup. The Doctor agreed, and asked for the coordinates for [[Skaro]], the Dalek homeworld. The Time Lord then told the Doctor that he was already there, and vanished after giving him a [[time ring]] that would return him to the [[TARDIS]] when his mission was complete.
