Biography
Life
The One, as he later became known, (AUDIO: The Eleven [+]Loading...["The Eleven (audio story)"]) came from a non-ranking family and had little to do with his parents as it was discouraged in Time Lord society, particularly if one had ambition to rise above their social status. Because of his beginnings, the Time Lords had little interest in him. (AUDIO: The Murder of Oliver Akkron [+]Loading...["The Murder of Oliver Akkron (audio story)"])
The One studied the Doctor's story and was inspired by it. He graduated from the Time Lord Academy with a quintuple first across a range of subjects (AUDIO: The Eleven [+]Loading...["The Eleven (audio story)"]) and later worked at the Panopticon Archive, where he found information about a prototype stellar manipulator. (AUDIO: The Satanic Mill [+]Loading...["The Satanic Mill (audio story)"])
When several members of the High Council were away on other business and a certain number of votes were required for particular motions to be passed, the One was given a temporary seat. (AUDIO: The Eleven [+]Loading...["The Eleven (audio story)"]) He was shamed by a Prydonian and realised that his people were "belligerent children". (AUDIO: The Murder of Oliver Akkron [+]Loading...["The Murder of Oliver Akkron (audio story)"]) He later left Gallifrey and became a criminal, at some point regenerating into the Two and living on inside his head due to regenerative dissonance. (AUDIO: The Eleven [+]Loading...["The Eleven (audio story)"])
Post-mortem
He gave the Doctor a potential source for his degeneration crisis in the Carpallium System after he offered a way out to the Two. (AUDIO: Two's Company [+]Loading...["Two's Company (audio story)"])
The Eleven transferred the mind of the One into his TARDIS to set a trap for the Doctor. Later, when the One was successfully transferred inside the Doctor's TARDIS, while both the Eleven's and the Doctor's TARDISes were linked, the One gained full control over both, threatening to blow them up into a supernova. The One was willing to sacrifice himself, so the other personalities of the Eleven would "flourish". However, the sixth Doctor transferred the mind of the Nine from a clone into his TARDIS, resulting in the One being stuck with the Doctor and the Nine, and becoming annoyed by his future incarnation's rampant kleptomania. Realizing that the Eleven was dying due to missing his other selves from his mind, and being unable to tolerate the Nine, he had no choice but to make a deal with the Doctor. They landed back on the planet Molaruss, where the One and the Nine were temporarily transferred into the Doctor's mind and then sent back into the mind of the Eleven. (AUDIO: One for All [+]Loading...["One for All (audio story)"])
It was also said that the One was either buried or imprisoned in the Sand Box, on Earth. The Sand Box was filled with every nightmare known to every species, such as the Devil. His tomb was visited by many well-wishers and protectors, such as the Rocket Men. An investigation into a potential new Omega threat led the Third and Fourth Doctors to the tomb, which was now being opened remotely by Omega, in an attempt to weaponise the One's calm, intelligent and rational mind. It became clear, however, that the tomb cum prison did not contain the level-headed One, but rather his sixth incarnation, a much more crazed, murderous and brutal personality. The Six broke out of the Sand Box, which in turn allowed the many entities to escape. Many people, including the Rocket Men, lost their lives. (AUDIO: The Box of Terrors [+]Loading...["The Box of Terrors (audio story)"])
Personality
The One was known for being bookish and logical, claiming that without his logic, his other selves would be lost. He was also known for keeping his other selves in check, reminding his personas of the roles they have.
Behind the scenes
- The script of Dark Universe describes the One as a "fussy old archivist, pedantic and knowledgeable on many Gallifreyan secrets".
