The '''''Teselecta''''' was a [[Justice Department Vehicle]], staffed by a crew that had been miniaturised by a [[compression field]]. It could travel through time, and was used to locate people who were deemed to have committed crimes but had escaped punishment. After finding them near the end of their respective timelines (so as to avoid changing history), the crew would administer their own punishment - usually in the form of some non-lethal painful torture, so that afterwards they could die in the manner recorded by history.

The '''''Teselecta''''', designated '''Justice Department Vehicle Number 6018''', was a humanoid [[starship]]/[[time machine]], similar to an [[android]], staffed by [[Justice Department|a crew]] who had been [[Miniaturisation|miniaturised]] by a [[compression field]].


==History==
It was used to locate people deemed guilty of [[crimes]] who had escaped [[punishment]]. After finding them near the end of their respective [[timeline]]s to avoid changing history, the crew would administer their own punishment, usually in the form of some non-lethal, painful torture. Afterwards they could die in the manner recorded by history.
The ''Teselecta'' was manned by a staff of four hundred and twenty-one people. They could change its appearance to that of any humanoid being. At the time the [[Eleventh Doctor]], [[Amy Pond|Amy]], [[Rory Williams|Rory]], and [[Mels]] crashed through [[Adolf Hitler]]'s office, the ''Teselecta'' was trying to deliver punishment to Hitler, but got him in the wrong time period. It wasn't until they discovered Mels, who had regenerated, revealing herself as [[Melody Pond]], that they stopped trying to go after Hitler, and tried to deliver her punishment, for their records indicated that she would be the one to kill the Doctor. They were thwarted by Melody's parents, Amy and Rory, who deactivated the devices that protected the crew against the antibodies. They were forced to teleport to a spaceship above the Earth, abandoning the ''Teselecta''. The ''Teselecta'' was used to show Melody that River Song, the friend of the Doctor and his companions was what she would later become. The Doctor also extracted data from it regarding his death and let it reveal [[The Silence|the Silence's]] purpose. ([[DW]]: ''[[Let's Kill Hitler]]'')
[[file:tessalecta.jpg|thumb|Inside the Teselecta ([[DW]]:''[[Let's Kill Hitler]]'')]]


The ''Teselecta'' began investigating [[the Silence]] and was approached by the Doctor for information on it. After leading the Doctor to someone who could help, the ''Teselecta'' was approached again to deliever the Doctor's letters so he wouldn't cross his own timestream.  The Captain asked the Doctor if there was anything else the crew could do to help as they really did believe in justice and wanted to help despite the Doctor detesting them and the Doctor asked for the ''Teselcta'' to take on his shape to fake his own death. When trapped in the alternate timeline, the Doctor was in fact in the ''Teselecta'' the whole time and revealed this fact to River Song before sending them back to Lake Silencio.  There, River shot the ''Teselecta'', apparently killing the Doctor and succesfully allowing him to fake his own death. ([[DW]]: ''[[The Wedding of River Song]]'')
== History ==
The ''Teselecta'' had a [[crew]] of 421 people led by [[Carter (Let's Kill Hitler)|Captain Carter]]. They could change its appearance to that of any humanoid being. The ''Teselecta'' visited [[1938]] intending to punish [[Adolf Hitler]] but realized they had arrived too early in his time stream. At the same time, [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] crashed into Hitler's office (due to [[Mels]] shooting the time rotor) and knocked the ''Teselecta'' to the ground, inadvertently saving Hitler. The crew witnessed Mels' [[regeneration]] into her [[River Song]] incarnation and recognised her as the worst war criminal in the universe for killing the Doctor in the future.


==Features==
Following River's departure from Hitler's office, the ''Teselecta'' followed, miniaturizing [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] and taking on the form of Amy. As Amy and Rory were innocent of any crime, they were given security privileges that protected them from the [[Teselecta antibody|''Teselecta'' antibodies]]. The ''Teselecta'' attempted to punish River before being interrupted by the Doctor. With the Doctor demanding information on his death and Amy a relative of River, Captain Carter granted Amy access to the ''Teselecta's'' records on the Doctor and the ''Teselecta'' informed the Doctor of the true nature of [[the Silence]] and about [[the Question]]. The ''Teselecta'' soon resumed torturing River, but Amy used [[the Doctor's sonic screwdriver]] to revoke the crew's security privileges. Under attack by the antibodies, the crew began shutting the robot down, including its weapons systems, but were forced to beam out to a ship in orbit when they couldn't shut down the ''Teselecta'' in time.
===Shapeshifting===
The ''Teselecta'' could resemble anyone or anything whose likeness it has scanned. During its time in [[Berlin]], [[1938]], 6018 took on the forms of a janitor, [[Zimmerman|a Nazi official]], a Nazi soldier (both with and without a [[motorbike]]), as well as [[Amy Pond]] and [[River Song]]. A member of the crew stated that it had once taken the form of [[Rasputin]], but with green skin. At some time in the future and on the 22nd of April 2011  the ''Teselecta'' took form of a deceased member of [[the Silence]] and (as a request) [[Eleventh Doctor|The Doctor]].


===Miniaturisation ray===
After the Doctor died, Amy turned to the ''Teselecta'' which was still partially active. With Amy's privileges as a relative, she had the ''Teselecta'' shapeshift into River Song to show Melody that she and River were one and the same. Following his subsequent [[resurrection]], the Doctor extracted data from the ''Teselecta'' databanks on his death at [[Lake Silencio]]. ([[TV]]: {{cs|Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)}})
The ''Teselecta'' was equipped with a miniaturisation ray, which it used to miniaturise people and transport them into the ''Teselecta''. [[compression field|Compression fields]] were used to keep people miniaturised.


===Antibodies===
The ''Teselecta'' was later recovered by its crew. As the Doctor's death approached, the Doctor tracked it down posing as Father [[Gideon Vandaleur]], a deceased envoy for [[the Silence]]. The Doctor was able to disable the ''Teselecta'' once again and promised to fix it once he got what he wanted. Having realised that the ''Teselecta'' was investigating the Silence, the Doctor asked for information on the Silence's weak link. The ''Teselecta'' crew pointed the Doctor towards [[Gantok]].
The interiors of the ''Teselecta'' were defended by robotic organisms known as "the [[Teselecta Antibodies|Antibodies]]". Anyone without the proper privileges was killed. ([[DW]]: ''[[Let's Kill Hitler]]'')


{{Series 6 aliens}}
As the Doctor prepared to go to his death, he visited the ''Teselecta'' to request that the crew deliver his invitations to his friends so that the Doctor wouldn't risk crossing his own [[timestream]]. Captain Carter promised to do so and insisted that no mater what the Doctor thought of them, the ''Teselecta'' and her crew were also champions of justice. After Carter asked if there was nothing more that they could do, the Doctor came up with the plan to have the ''Teselecta'' take on his form to fool everyone into thinking that he had died.

In the [[alternate timeline]], the Doctor remained in control of the ''Teselecta'', changing its outer form to make it appear as if he aged to avoid suspicion. Eventually, the Doctor married River Song and revealed to River in the process that both he and the TARDIS were safely inside the ''Teselecta''.

The Teselecta, designated Justice Department Vehicle Number 6018, was a humanoid starship/time machine, similar to an android, staffed by a crew who had been miniaturised by a compression field.

It was used to locate people deemed guilty of crimes who had escaped punishment. After finding them near the end of their respective timelines to avoid changing history, the crew would administer their own punishment, usually in the form of some non-lethal, painful torture. Afterwards they could die in the manner recorded by history.

History[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Teselecta had a crew of 421 people led by Captain Carter. They could change its appearance to that of any humanoid being. The Teselecta visited 1938 intending to punish Adolf Hitler but realized they had arrived too early in his time stream. At the same time, the Doctor's TARDIS crashed into Hitler's office (due to Mels shooting the time rotor) and knocked the Teselecta to the ground, inadvertently saving Hitler. The crew witnessed Mels' regeneration into her River Song incarnation and recognised her as the worst war criminal in the universe for killing the Doctor in the future.

Following River's departure from Hitler's office, the Teselecta followed, miniaturizing Amy Pond and Rory Williams and taking on the form of Amy. As Amy and Rory were innocent of any crime, they were given security privileges that protected them from the Teselecta antibodies. The Teselecta attempted to punish River before being interrupted by the Doctor. With the Doctor demanding information on his death and Amy a relative of River, Captain Carter granted Amy access to the Teselecta's records on the Doctor and the Teselecta informed the Doctor of the true nature of the Silence and about the Question. The Teselecta soon resumed torturing River, but Amy used the Doctor's sonic screwdriver to revoke the crew's security privileges. Under attack by the antibodies, the crew began shutting the robot down, including its weapons systems, but were forced to beam out to a ship in orbit when they couldn't shut down the Teselecta in time.

After the Doctor died, Amy turned to the Teselecta which was still partially active. With Amy's privileges as a relative, she had the Teselecta shapeshift into River Song to show Melody that she and River were one and the same. Following his subsequent resurrection, the Doctor extracted data from the Teselecta databanks on his death at Lake Silencio. (TV: Let's Kill Hitler [+]Loading...["Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)"])

The Teselecta was later recovered by its crew. As the Doctor's death approached, the Doctor tracked it down posing as Father Gideon Vandaleur, a deceased envoy for the Silence. The Doctor was able to disable the Teselecta once again and promised to fix it once he got what he wanted. Having realised that the Teselecta was investigating the Silence, the Doctor asked for information on the Silence's weak link. The Teselecta crew pointed the Doctor towards Gantok.

As the Doctor prepared to go to his death, he visited the Teselecta to request that the crew deliver his invitations to his friends so that the Doctor wouldn't risk crossing his own timestream. Captain Carter promised to do so and insisted that no mater what the Doctor thought of them, the Teselecta and her crew were also champions of justice. After Carter asked if there was nothing more that they could do, the Doctor came up with the plan to have the Teselecta take on his form to fool everyone into thinking that he had died.

After River Song stopped herself from killing the Doctor, it fractured a fixed point in time and created River Song's World.

Miniaturisation ray[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Teselecta was equipped with a miniaturisation ray, which it used to shrink people and transport them into the Teselecta. Compression fields were used to keep people miniaturised. (TV: Let's Kill Hitler [+]Loading...["Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)"])

Antibodies[[edit] | [edit source]]

The interiors of the Teselecta were defended by robotic organisms called "the antibodies". Anyone without the proper privileges was killed, such as the Nazi Zimmerman in 1938.

If the crew's privileges were disabled, the antibodies would turn on the crew themselves and attack. The antibodies could presumably be disabled if the entire Teselecta was shut down as the crew attempted to shut the Teselecta down completely when such an event happened. However, they were not able to complete the task and were forced to call for outside teleportation to escape.

The loss of privileges keeping the antibodies from attacking did not appear to affect a person's control of the Teselecta's other features. The crew were still able to access its systems to attempt to shut it down and Amy Pond retained the access Captain Carter granted her to the Teselecta's databanks.

(TV: The Wedding of River Song [+]Loading...["The Wedding of River Song (TV story)"])

Databanks[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Teselecta possessed extensive databanks on individuals, organizations and events throughout time and space. Relatives of those targeted had certain privileges that allowed them to be granted access to the databanks by the Captain, but use of the databanks by civilians was generally forbidden due to the danger of knowing too much about one's own future.

In 1938, Amy Pond was granted access to the Teselecta databanks as a relative of River Song who the Teselecta was targeting. Once Amy requested access to the records on the Doctor, the Teselecta provided the Doctor with the information he requested by verbalizing it in a robotic manner. These databanks had information on the Doctor's death at Lake Silencio and that it was a fixed point in time. The databanks were able to provide information on the Silence and the Question, though not what the Question actually was as the databanks lacked that information.

The Teselecta was then able to shapeshift into the form of River from its databanks at Amy's request. (TV: Let's Kill Hitler [+]Loading...["Let's Kill Hitler (TV story)"])
