The Other, with Rassilon and Omega, was one of three founders of Time Lord society on the planet Gallifrey during the Dark Times after the cult of Pythia had ended. The birth and origin of The Other would remain a mystery for later Time Lords.
- Apart from this triumverate, three other persons would have a major influence on Gallifreyan history. (PDA: The Infinity Doctors)
As Rassilon's rule moved closer to despotism and Gallifrey's borders were sealed, the Other attempted to escape the planet by hurling himself into the Looms to await eventual reconsitution. (NA: Lungbarrow)
Accounts differ as to results of this. Some imply that he was re-loomed some ten million years later to the House of Lungbarrow as the Time Lord who would become known as the Doctor (NA: Lungbarrow). Others imply that the presence of his biodata in the Looms gave rise not to one simple reincarnation but to the wider tendancy for rebellion and discontent which would characterise the Deca's generation of Time Lords (FP: The Book of The War)
Other information
- Scholars would later call documents concerning these three, the ROO texts. (MA: Goth Opera, PDA: The Infinity Doctors)
- A minor Gallifreyan festival known as Otherstide was celebrated yearly in his honour. (NA: Lungbarrow)
