Nefertiti was Queen of Egypt in the year 1334 BC and the wife of King Amenhotep.
Biography
After the Eleventh Doctor rescued her people from a swarm of giant alien locusts, she grew extremely lustful for him. When the Doctor learned about news of a Silurian Ark in the future containing dinosaurs on its way towards Earth, she followed him into the TARDIS. Whilst on the ship, she quickly clashed with John Riddell; balking at his chauvinism, as she was used to being obeyed by everyone she met. However as the adventure continued, she found his adventurous spirit attractive, in comparison to her husband, whom she found dull.
When Solomon discovered Nefertiti's presence on the ship, he offered to allow the Doctor and his friends safe passage if they turned her over to him. Although the Doctor refused, Nefertiti willingly turned herself over to spare the others' lives. To her revulsion, Solomon quickly demonstrated to her that he saw her as a possession to be bartered and not as a person. When the Doctor came to free her, Nefertiti took the opportunity to pin Solomon to the ground in retaliation for his earlier treatment.
Upon the adventure's conclusion, she remained with Riddell in the 20th century African wilderness. (TV: Dinosaurs on a Spaceship)
