She was groomed to become the next Pharaoh. She was raised in near isolation, being treated more like a god than a person. (BFA: No Place Like Home) There was controversy about the throne passing to a woman. It was in the midst of this intrigue that the Fifth Doctor and Peri arrived. The Doctor knew that historical records showed Amenhotep was succeeded by Thutmose IV. He feared Erimem would die in a revolution to prevent her becoming Pharaoh. However, Erimem survived. Realising that she was not destined to rule Egypt, she decided to leave for Greece to study. The Doctor offered her a chance to learn far further afield. (BFA: The Eye of the Scorpion) She later regretted not having said goodbye to her mother before leaving. (BFA: No Place Like Home)

The Doctor decided to give Erimem a tour of the TARDIS. At this time, a mutated rovie decided to take control of the TARDIS and tried to get them lost or killed. When the Doctor and Erimem finally found the Rovie, they did not take him seriously because he was a rodent. They provoked him with mouse-based insults, which caused him to leave his protective force field. Erimem smashed Rovie's machine and set Antranak on him. (BFA: No Place Like Home)

Throughout her travels with the Doctor and Peri, she sought out causes and crusades to throw herself into. (BFA: The Council of Nicaea)

After encountering Sekhmet, one of the last Osirians, on Peladon, she accepted a marriage proposal from Pelleas, the newly crowned King of Peladon. She parted from Peri and the Doctor, explaining that it had always been her destiny to rule. (BFA: The Bride of Peladon)
