Revision as of 02:15, 13 October 2018

This page should be merged.

It should be relocated at Shift (Alien Bodies) because rename tag that was on this page suggests they are the same?
Talk about it here or check the revision history for additional comments.

The Shift was an agent sent by either the Great Houses or their enemy to monitor changes in the history of Earth. While investigating a change in Earth's timelines, it was wiped from history by Lolita and turned into a Shift. It tried to manipulate Dave Lawson into preventing Lola Denison from becoming Vice President of the United States, but Lawson instead killed President Matt Nelson.

Before being turned into a Shift, it was present during the war against the djinn, though it was neither a djinn nor an angel. It gave Allah the idea of hiding the cauldron inside Earth, though it said that the person it was speaking to wasn't God. (PROSE: Head of State)

Behind the scenes

  • The Shift's speech patterns were intended to resemble those of the Doctor; the Shift's comments in the discussion of the Eternal War can be seen as a reference to the Other.
