'''K-9''' was the first - and until [[Kamelion]], the only - robotic [[List of companions|companion]] to travel with the [[Doctor]].
 
==Biography==
 
There were three K9s. '''K9 Mark I''' was built by [[Professor Marius]] to accompany and assist him in his work at the [[Bi-Al Foundation]].  This K9 joined [[the Doctor]] and [[Leela]], ("[[The Invisible Enemy]]"), but left with Leela when she decided to remain on Gallifrey with her new lover, [[Andred]] ("[[The Invasion of Time]]").
 
A '''K9 (Mark II)''' ("[[The Invasion of Time]]"), constructed by persons unknown and more or less identical to the original. He accompanied the Doctor and his new friend on their quest to locate the segments of the [[Key to Time]] ("[[The Ribos Operation]]"), however the swampy terrain of [[Delta Magna]]'s third moon made it impossible for him accompany them there. At the conclusion of the quest, [[the Shadow]] turned K-9 to his evil will, during which time he assumed a sinister personality ("[[The Armageddon Factor]]").
 
K-9 lost his voice ("[[Destiny of the Daleks]]"). During the Doctor's next adventure ("[[City of Death]]") he remained patiently in the TARDIS, implying, perhaps that his voice had not yet returned. Subsequently ("[[The Creature from the Pit]]"), his voice sounded quite different and remained so for a number of adventures, however by the time we saw him vacationing with the Doctor and Romana in [[Brighton]] ("[[The Leisure Hive (TV story)|The Leisure Hive]]") he once more sounded like his familiar self.
 
Damaged by the [[time winds]], K-9 Mark II could not cross back into [[N-Space]] with the Doctor, so decided to stay behind at the [[Gateway]] with Romana, to help her free the remaining [[Tharils]] from slavery ("[[Warriors Gate]]").
 
The Doctor (presumbably) at some point built '''K9 Mark III''', which he left on Earth as a present for another companion, [[Sarah Jane Smith]] ("[[A Girl's Best Friend|K9 and Company]]"). At a later date, K-9 Mark III still lived with Sarah Jane, but, by chance, would not accompany her to Gallifrey ("[[The Five Doctors]]").
