- You may be looking for the volcano.
Vesuvius was the robot Emperor of an alternate Rome.
While working as a historian, Vesuvius encountered the Fourth Doctor and Morris. Noticing that Vesuvius was in distress the Doctor helped to relieve his pressure and, as thanks for his kindness, Vesuvius agreed to take him to the Gods. However, the Gods later turned out to be the Malevius and the trio were forced to escape the Temple of Gods.
After Morris was killed, the Doctor and Vesuvius ventured into the catacombs below the city - Vesuvius told the Doctor about the "Beast-men" and protested against his plan to use them against the Malevilus. When the Doctor's plan worked and the Malevilus were defeated, the people named Vesuvius as the new Emperor of the Galactic Roman Empire. (COMIC: Doctor Who and the Iron Legion)
Vesuvius was later seen attending Bonjaxx's birthday party on Maruthea. (COMIC: Party Animals) A Vortex parasite later conjured up a manifestation of Vesuvius, along with many others, for the Doctor to fight. (COMIC: A Life of Matter and Death)
