The Burner Doctor was a version of the Doctor who existed in an alternative timeline. He served as the Lord Burner under President Romana.
The Lord Burner spoke about his personal history while deceiving the primary timeline version of Romana. After Romana expressed approval for the ideology of the non-interventionists – who were, on this Gallifrey, a niche group – the Lord Burner claimed that he had once traveled the universe attempting to undo the Time Lords’ interventions. Supposedly he did this under the name of the Doctor, but he seemed not to understand when Romana initially addressed him this way, asking her if they were going to "stand here calling each other names". The Lord Burner allowed Romana to assume that he had been put on trial by the Time Lords, as his counterpart had been. He later claimed that he was at imminent risk of being arrested for opposing the President's policies, which was false.
At some point far in his past, the Lord Burner killed his version of Braxiatel. He described the experience as "a moment of pleasure". The Lord Burner also attempted to kill the primary timeline version of Braxiatel on the Axis. Braxiatel threw them both into a portal with no set coordinates, trapping them in the vortex between realities. Braxiatel eventually escaped from the vortex, but the Lord Burner’s fate remained unknown. (AUDIO: Disassembled)
Behind the scenes
The idea for the Burner Doctor was to explore a Doctor who had been placed on trial by his people, as in The War Games, but with different results by Time Lords with very different values. (BFX: Gallifrey IV)
