[[File:Ainley Master is Born.jpg|thumb|"A new body, at last." ([[TV]]: ''[[The Keeper of Traken (TV story)|The Keeper of Traken]]'')]] | |||
''[[The Doctor Who Role Playing Game]]'' by [[FASA]], which admits to taking liberties with the source material in its opening pages, gives a rundown of the Master's first thirteen [[incarnation]]s in "[[The Master (reference book)|The Master]]" supplement book, which was similar to (but not entirely consistent with) the in-universe biography given for [[the Master]] in FASA's own ''[[CIA File Extracts (novel)|CIA File Extracts]]''. | ''[[The Doctor Who Role Playing Game]]'' by [[FASA]], which admits to taking liberties with the source material in its opening pages, gives a rundown of the Master's first thirteen [[incarnation]]s in "[[The Master (reference book)|The Master]]" supplement book, which was similar to (but not entirely consistent with) the in-universe biography given for [[the Master]] in FASA's own ''[[CIA File Extracts (novel)|CIA File Extracts]]''. | ||
The Master assumed what was identified as his fourteenth incarnation when his {{Pratt|n=decaying, thirteenth body}} possessed the [[body]] of [[Tremas]]. This new form was not unlike his {{Delgado|n=earlier appearance}} but appeared younger with dark [[brown]] [[hair]]. An attractive man who appeared middle-aged when in reality he was [[The Master's age|over 900 years old]], the Master had an average height and build and was distinguished by his [[satan]]ic [[beard]] and [[grey]] [[eye]]s whilst wearing a [[black]] [[tunic]] and [[glove]]s. As this body was not [[Gallifreyan]], the Master lacked the natural ability to [[regenerate]], however, exposure to the [[Numismaton Gas]] of the [[planet]] [[Sarn (planet)|Sarn]] gave the Master considerable powers which included the ability to re-trigger a [[life cycle]] of regenerations in his stolen body. Escaping his [[fire|fiery]] [[death]], the Master regenerated into a fifteenth incarnation with a form identical to that of his previous incarnation. | The Master assumed what was identified as his fourteenth incarnation when his {{Pratt|n=decaying, thirteenth body}} possessed the [[body]] of [[Tremas]].
