'''Ida Scott''' was a [[43rd century]] [[scientist]] and daughter of [[Odysseus Scott]]. She served as [[science officer]] on the [[Walker Expedition]]. | |||

=== Early life === | |||
Ida was the daughter of [[Odysseus Scott|Dr Odysseus Scott]] and [[Ida Scott's mother|his wife]] and was brought up [[Neoclassic Congregational]] because of her mother, but she "never believed" in the [[religion]] and did not consider herself to have any sort of faith. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Satan Pit (TV story)|The Satan Pit]]'') She attended [[antiquity|antiquities]] [[school]] and regularly stole things as a child, including a [[book]] in which [[Daphne Zane]]'s [[Daphne Zane's father|father]] had written encouragements, the likes of which she never received from her own father. | |||
Odysseus was disappointed upon learning of Ida's penchant for petty theft and thought that she had inherited her mother's weaknesses in addition to his strengths.

Ida was the [[science officer]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Impossible Planet (TV story)|The Impossible Planet]]'') of a "top class" crew put together by [[McMillen]] to help [[Walker (Tardisode 8)|Captain Walker]] acquire [[Krop Tor]]'s power source, ([[WC]]: ''[[Tardisode 8]]'') something which Ida believed would revolutionise modern [[science]].

Ida Scott was a 43rd century scientist and daughter of Odysseus Scott. She served as science officer on the Walker Expedition.
Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
Early life[[edit] | [edit source]]
Ida was the daughter of Dr Odysseus Scott and his wife and was brought up Neoclassic Congregational because of her mother, but she "never believed" in the religion and did not consider herself to have any sort of faith. (TV: The Satan Pit) She attended antiquities school and regularly stole things as a child, including a book in which Daphne Zane's father had written encouragements, the likes of which she never received from her own father.
Odysseus was disappointed upon learning of Ida's penchant for petty theft and thought that she had inherited her mother's weaknesses in addition to his strengths. Her mother left Odysseus and Ida shared a tense relationship with him, largely keeping her distance (AUDIO: Odyssey) and effectively running from him. (TV: The Satan Pit)
Like her father, (AUDIO: Odyssey) Ida became a scientist. (TV: The Impossible Planet) She remained in contact with her mother, who frequently went on what her father described as pilgrimages, (AUDIO: Odyssey) and referred to her longingly as her "old mum". (TV: The Satan Pit) She knew that Odysseus's voice was used by the translator spheres, but she spent so much time around Ood that she stopped recognising it as that of her father. (AUDIO: Odyssey)
Walker Expedition[[edit] | [edit source]]
Ida was the science officer (TV: The Impossible Planet) of a "top class" crew put together by McMillen to help Captain Walker acquire Krop Tor's power source, (WC: Tardisode 8) something which Ida believed would revolutionise modern science. She introduced the Tenth Doctor and Rose Tyler to the crew after they arrived at Sanctuary Base 6, explaining their mission and adding them to the duty roster. When the drill reached the power source, Ida descended with the Doctor and found a massive trapdoor which began to open. (TV: The Impossible Planet)
Although Ida was happy to ignore Zachary Cross Flane's order to return to Sanctuary Base, where the Ood were attacking, the Doctor suggested that they retreat only for the capsule's cable to snap, leaving them with less than an hour's worth of oxygen and no way back to the surface. The Doctor used the cable to descend into the pit at Ida's suggestion and, after the Beast was defeated, he saved her from dying of oxygen deprivation in the TARDIS and returned her to her team. He told her that he might see her again. (TV: The Satan Pit)
Saving Odysseus[[edit] | [edit source]]
Ida borrowed a Torchwood spaceship from Zachary to travel to Faber where Odysseus, whom she had not seen in some time, was receiving gravitational therapy at the Spire in an effort to cure his Axobar's syndrome. Concerned about him relying on alternative therapy instead of conventional medicine and wondering why only he, Thomas Good and an Ood were at the Spire, she looked into the whereabouts of Kennedy Destin and Odysseus's fellow patients and came to the conclusion that they had never left the planet.
The Resilient, who had been formed by the merging of Destin and the patients within a fold of reality, warped gravity and, as a result, time. Ida failed to save Tom from being absorbed but managed to get Odysseus and the Ood off of Faber in the Torchwood ship before the planet turned to dust as a result of the Resilient building the Spire backwards and creating a loop. Before she parted ways with her father, who was unconscious and losing his power of speech, she accepted the Ood's offer to read out the encouragements that Daphne Zane's father had written for her and which she had never heard from Odysseus. (AUDIO: Odyssey)
Personality[[edit] | [edit source]]
Ida Scott was very self-confident. She had the ability to command a ship. She acted tough and still maintained calmness and control when she learned that they would soon run out of air, with no way of escape, but pled to the Doctor that he mustn't go because she didn't want to die on her own.
She also was faithful to her crew and found it hard to believe that one of the members of her crew had attacked, and tried to kill, other members. She also grew faithful and loyal to the Doctor and Rose and she started to take orders from them, especially when she and the Doctor were alone in the pit. (TV: The Impossible Planet / The Satan Pit)
