| | '''Melody Pond''' was the child of [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]]. She was a "[[Child of a TARDIS|child]] of the [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]]", born mostly [[Human]] with some [[Time Lord]] [[DNA]]. She was transformed by [[the Silence]] into the first of several [[Proto-Time Lord]]s, and had the ability to [[Regeneration|regenerate]]. |
|
| |
|
| Although the [[Tenth Doctor]]'s [[Silence in the Library|first meeting]] with her ended in her physical death, they had many adventures, from the Doctor's perspective, afterwards. Like [[Melanie Bush]] and [[Charley Pollard]] before her, she was an example of the rare companion whose timeline was not synchronous with that of the Doctor.
| | Melody was named after her parents' childhood friend, '''[[Mels Zucker]]''', who was in fact secretly her second incarnation gone back in time to ensure her parents got together. Regenerating once more into her third incarnation after being shot by [[Adolf Hitler]], she became best known as [[Professor]] '''[[River Song]]''', and married the [[Time Lord]] known as [[the Doctor]] in his [[Eleventh Doctor|eleventh incarnation]]. |

| ==Biography== | | == Biography == |
| River Song was an [[archaeology|archaeologist]] already very familiar with [[the Doctor]] when they first met, from his perspective, in the [[51st century]]. She was, in fact, a future companion of his who would (or, from her perspective, had) travelled with him on and off. According to her, he would come to trust her implicitly, though at the start of their relationship, from his perspective, he was generally suspicious of her and occasionally almost hostile to her. Some time prior to her encounter with the [[Weeping Angel]]s, she was imprisoned in the [[Stormcage Containment Facility]] for the murder of someone she described as, "A very good man. Best man I've ever known". ([[DW]]: ''[[The Time of Angels]]'' / ''[[Flesh and Stone]]'')
| | === Incarnations of Melody Pond === |
| | During her first incarnation, Melody was a [[Melody Pond (Prequel to The Impossible Astronaut)|little girl]], who had been kidnapped by [[Madame Kovarian]]. She harvested Melody's embryonic [[DNA]] in order to [[clone]] more children like her. This resulted in the creation of River's clones, the [[Proto-Time Lord|Proto-Time Lords]]. The clones referred to one another as siblings. The first batch consisted of seven clones named [[Lake (The Lady in the Lake)|Lake]], [[Rindle]], [[Tarn (The Lady in the Lake)|Tarn]], [[Wadi]], [[Creek (The Lady in the Lake)|Creek]], [[Stream (The Lady in the Lake)|Stream]], and [[Beck (The Lady in the Lake)|Beck]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Lady in the Lake (audio story)|The Lady in the Lake]]'') The second batch of clones included [[Brooke (The Lady in the Lake)|Brooke]], [[H-One]], [[H-Two]], and [[O (The Furies)|O]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[My Dinner with Andrew (audio story)|My Dinner with Andrew]]'', ''[[The Furies (audio story)|The Furies]]'') Like River, the clones had [[Binary vascular system|two hearts]] and the ability to regenerate; however, the exact amount of regenerations each of them had was random. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Lady in the Lake (audio story)|The Lady in the Lake]]'') |
|
| |
|
| ===Meetings with the Doctor===
| | After escaping from the Silence, Melody had made her way to [[New York City]] and developed a terminal illness, but knew she could "fix it" by [[Regeneration|regenerating]]. She was living homeless in an alley when she finally succumbed to her ailment in January [[1970]], and regenerated. ([[TV]]: ''[[Day of the Moon (TV story)|Day of the Moon]]'') |

| [[File:River_song.png|thumb|190px|left|River Song meeting the Doctor again. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Impossible Astronaut]]'')]] | |
| After receiving an invitation containing geographical co-ordinate from the Doctor, River escaped from the Stormcage Containment Facility, in order to meet him in [[United States of America]] in [[2011]]. River met the Doctor, [[Amy Pond|Amy]], and [[Rory Williams|Rory]] in a cafe in the middle of the Utah desert. After reminiscing with him about [[Jim the Fish]], The Doctor took all of them to a picnic, where they saw the Doctor murdered by someone wearing an astronaut's space suit. River, Amy, and Rory cremated the Doctors body in a 'Viking Funeral'. They returned to the cafe and discovered another Doctor, approximately two hundred years younger than the Doctor they saw die, which River realised after he asked who Jim the Fish was.

|
| They next travelled to the White House and then to an abandoned warehouse in Florida ([[DW]]: ''[[The Impossible Astronaut]]''). River went into a maintenance tunnel in the floor. While down there, she found a nest of [[the Silence]], but forgot about them. With Rory, she then discovered a control room to a [[79B Aickman Road|time ship]]. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Impossible Astronaut]]'')
| | Now under the name of [[Mels Zucker]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Mels at School (short story)|Mels at School]]'') and residing in [[Leadworth]], Melody grew up once more, now alongside her parents. She became Amelia and Rory's close childhood friend, ([[TV]]: ''[[Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)|Let's Kill Hitler]]'') Upon meeting the [[Eleventh Doctor]], Mels held him at gunpoint and made him take her to "kill [[Adolf Hitler|Hitler]]". There, she was caught in a crossfire between him and the ''[[Teselecta]]''. She got the Doctor to promise to marry her, and revealed her true identity to the three of them. Beginning to regenerate, Melody reflected on her last regeneration, and told her parents she was glad she had found them, before she exploded with [[regeneration energy]]. |

| [[File:River_Song_with_rory.png|thumb|River tells [[Rory]] about her first encounter with [[the Doctor]]. ([[DW]]: [[The Impossible Astronaut]])]]
| | Shortly after regenerating, Melody began examining her new body. Unbeknownst to her, both the Doctor and her parents were already acquainted with this new incarnation, who more commonly used the name [[River Song]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)|Let's Kill Hitler]]'') |
| Three months later, River was on the run from the government and the Silence. She was chased to the 50th floor of a building, and fell off the edge into the TARDIS pool. She then discovered the Spacesuit previously inhabited by the little girl, and realised the Spaceman she was talking about literally ate her, and she broke out of it; however, as the suit was a life support system, chances were the little girl would soon die. Soon after, she helped the Doctor defeat [[The Silence|the Silence]] by using the Silence's brainwashing of humanity against them.
| |
|
| |
|
| The Doctor then returned River to Storm Cage, where she kissed the Doctor goodbye. From his shocked reaction, she realised that from his perspective it was their first kiss, and she would never kiss him again. ([[DW]]: ''[[Day of the Moon]]'')

| ====Opening of the [[Pandorica]]====
| | [[Category:River Song| ]] |
| In the 52nd century, after receiving a phone call from [[Winston Churchill]], River escaped from her prison to try and save the Doctor from a deadly prophecy of the TARDIS exploding. After dealing at a black market for a [[Time Agent]] [[vortex manipulator]], River travelled back in time to the Roman era of Earth where she met the Doctor.

| | | [[Category:Companions of the Doctor]] |
| They proceeded to Stonehenge where they searched for the [[Pandorica]]. After located it, they discovered that Stonehenge was transmitting a signal, bringing an [[the Alliance|alliance]] of the Doctor's enemies to Earth. The Doctor managed to convince the assembled aliens to back away for a time, and sent River to bring the TARDIS to him. However, the TARDIS brought River to Amy's house on the 26th of June, 2010. Whe River told him the date, the Doctor realised the TARDIS was about to explode and urged River to escape. Instead, she found herself trapped as the TARDIS came under control of an unknown external force and started to explode. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Pandorica Opens (TV story)|The Pandorica Opens]]'')

| Inside the TARDIS, River was stuck in a [[time loop]] of the first moments of the TARDIS explosion. The Doctor, using the vortex manipulator River had acquired, was able to retrieve her and bring her back to [[1996]]. Upon joining the Doctor, River killed the [[Stone Dalek]] that was hunting them.

| | | [[Category:Twelfth Doctor companions]] |
| After the Doctor restored the universe to life, erasing himself in the process, River left her now blank TARDIS-shaped [[River Song's diary|diary]] with Amy Pond on her [[26th June|wedding day]] in [[2010]] so that she could remember the Doctor back into existence. After a brief encounter with the Doctor, River teleported away with the vortex manipulator. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Big Bang]]'')

| | | [[Category:Cloned individuals]] |
| Some time after the opening of the Pandorica, River was imprisoned once again, but in an earlier century until she was put in [[Father Octavian]]'s custody. If she were to carry out the mission assigned to her, she would earn her pardon.

| While working for Father Octavian, River was sent to be a guest on the Byzantium ship. She infiltrated the lower levels to find the [[Home Box]], into which she carved the message "Hello Sweetie" in the [[Old High Gallifreyan]] language to attract the Doctor's attention. Leading [[Eleventh Doctor|the Doctor]] to [[Alfava Metraxis]], she helped him defeat an army of [[Weeping Angel]]s, who had been awakened in the planet's [[Aplan Mortarium|Maze of the Dead]].

| River's expedition to [[The Library|the Library]] was financed by [[Felman Lux]] and was chartered to discover what disaster had happened there a hundred years earlier, when a cryptic final message had been sent: ">>> 4022 saved. No survivors <<<". Anticipating trouble during the expedition, River summoned the Doctor by sending him a message via [[psychic paper]]. The [[Tenth Doctor|earlier version]] of the Doctor who turned up had not yet met her. Though bewildered, he agreed to help River and her team.
| | [[Category:20th century individuals]] |
| | | [[Category:21st century individuals]] |
| River and the Doctor appeared to be very close, even considering the strong bonds the Doctor forms with his companions. She still had her TARDIS-shaped [[River Song's diary|diary]] describing her travels with the Doctor. She carried an [[River Song's sonic screwdriver|upgraded version]] of the tenth incarnation's [[sonic screwdriver]] which a later Doctor had given her.

| ===Death===
| | [[Category:Human time travellers]] |
| As the situation in the Library deteriorated, River realised she must prove to the Doctor that she was, or would become from his viewpoint, someone he trusted completely and, with profuse apologies, she whispered his true name into his ear. The Doctor was stunned by this information, and River had won his trust.

| [[file:DOCTORWHOx409x2538.jpg|thumb|right|River, moments before her death. ([[DW]]: ''[[Forest of the Dead]]'')]] | | [[Category:Stormcage inmates]] |
| River physically died when she chose to sacrifice herself in the place of the Doctor in order to save Donna and the other 4022 people trapped in the Library's computer. She pleaded with him to not try and change history, not to change one moment of what was to come for them. After saving all the trapped people, the Doctor realized his future self must have given her his sonic screwdriver for a reason. Inside he found a [[data chip]] called a "Neural Relay", which contained River's [[Data Ghost]]. The Doctor saved her by uploading her into the virtual world contained in [[The Library]]'s data core. [[CAL]], the library's data core, controlled by a human girl (Charlotte Abigail Lux, or CAL) wired into its mainframe, also managed to save the data ghosts of all of River's dead archaeological team, in the process giving her company in the virtual world. River would go on to take care of the two virtual children and Charlotte in the virtual world, reading out her [[River Song's diary|diary]] of her life with the Doctor and how "everybody lives" when the Doctor comes to call. Her story ended with her telling the sleeping children sweet dreams. ([[DW]]: ''[[Silence in the Library]]'' / ''[[Forest of the Dead]]'')

| ==Personality==
| | [[Category:Humans who have been kidnapped]] |
| River had a feisty and cheeky personality. She often enjoyed showing off her knowledge in front of the Doctor, particularly knowledge of him and his personality. She would often use the word "spoilers" in reference to her knowledge of the Doctor's future, or his knowledge of her future. River was also persistent at keeping secrets from the Doctor, especially anything which could change the future. This included keeping her personal [[River Song's diary|diary]] from him.
| | [[Category:Humans who met the Doctor as babies]] |
| | | [[Category:Members of the Silence]] |
| River was devoted to the [[Doctor]] and cared very much for those around her such as Amy and her team in [[The Library]] but she could also be merciless, killing the [[Stone Dalek]] after it had shot the Doctor and begged for mercy when it realised who she was. She also taunted the Dalek before killing it by ordering it to beg for mercy. River Song was shown to be very confident in her abilities, intelligence and sexuality. She was often flirtatious but was serious when the situation called for it.

| | | [[Category:Leadworth Primary School students]] |
| River was also willing to sacrifice herself and took the Doctor's place when he attempted to release the people who were saved within the giant computer that controlled the Library. She pointed out that if the Doctor hooked himself up to the computer it would incinerate both his hearts and ensure that he would be unable to regenerate. In order to prevent the Doctor from killing himself, River actually knocked him out and then handcuffed him before hooking herself up to the computer. Just before her death she comforted the Doctor by saying that although it was her last meeting with him it was his first meeting with her and therefore he would see her again. She was also willing to sacrifice herself to close the [[Time Field]] on the ''Byzantium'' to stop the Doctor from doing it, until the Doctor told her it wouldn't be enough.

| ==Relationship with the Doctor==
| | [[Category:Aliases]] |
| When the Tenth Doctor first met River, she appeared to be someone he knew intimately (something she demonstrated when she stroked his hair and knew, just by his eyes, that he was much younger than "her Doctor") and seemed hurt when he confessed to not knowing her. Throughout the stories she made continual references to how well she knew him, even going so far as to tell the Doctor his real name to make sure she had his full trust - she described herself as someone who one day he would "trust completely" and that she herself would "trust that man to the end of the universe". When she sacrificed herself to save the people in the Library (and spared the Doctor from doing it himself) the Doctor said there was only one time he could ever tell her his name (indicating that the Doctor himself, though unsure of details, did have an idea of who she was to him) to which she simply answered "shhh... spoilers" before commencing the uplink that would end her life. ([[DW]]: ''[[Silence in the Library]]''/''[[Forest of the Dead]]'')

| | | [[Category:Human imposters]] |
| Upon the Eleventh Doctor's first meeting with her, he at first expressed resentment at the idea of his own future being set in stone, but later warmed to River after her part in saving Amy and after musing on the idea that "time can be rewritten." During the same episode, Amy asked River if she was the Doctor's wife and when asked by River if "it could by anything that simple with the Doctor" answered "yes". River refused to confirm it, simply saying Amy was "good." Later aboard the primary flight deck of the Byzantium, when the Doctor said he "could bloody kiss [her]" River responded with "maybe when you're older". ([[DW]]: ''[[The Time of Angels]]'', ''[[Flesh and Stone]]'') By the end of the story, he appeared to have at least some pleasure in anticipation of their next meeting.

| | | [[Category:Time Lords who have been inside the Doctor's TARDIS]] |
| Upon their second meeting, the Eleventh Doctor appeared accustomed to River's style of calling him and even smiled when he saw her "graffiti" on the oldest cliff face in the universe on Planet 1. He trusted River enough to send her back to the TARDIS to bring it to the Pandorica and by the end of the two-parter they parted on good terms, with the Doctor considering the question of her identity more of a game to him, something he could wait to find out. In the same story, when the TARDIS exploded, River Song was heard repeated saying the phrase "I'm sorry my love."

| River and the Doctor's third meeting implied that they weren't simply meeting in random order, but rather completely in reverse of each other. The Doctor is now much more comfortable with River, flirting quite openly with her, however, because of her previous warning that everything was about to change, he is also very hesitant to trust her. He completely rejected her plea to find [[Canton Delaware]] based purely on her trust alone, and only agreed to go because of his trust in Amy. River's later conversations with Rory revealed that she was beginning to realize that the Doctor wouldn't always remember her, and that she was desperately clinging to every moment and shared experience she had with the Doctor, knowing that any of them may well be her last (as with the kiss in her Stormcage cell.)
