The '''Final Sanction''', also known as the '''Ultimate Sanction''', was a plan instigated by the [[Time Lord]]s during the last years of the [[Last Great Time War]]. It was spearheaded by the [[Lord President]] [[Rassilon]] himself and involved causing a rip within the [[Time Vortex]] itself which was an act considered suicidal. However, it was believed that this would allow the inhabitants of [[Gallifrey]] to ascend into beings of pure consciousness thus free of flesh as well as of time. This act, however, would lead to the destruction of both [[Time]] and all of creation itself. They were prevented from accomplishing this act as a result of the war.
Proposed by [[Rassilon]] as the last resort to winning the [[Last Great Time War]], this plan involved the creation of a paradox so severe that the resulting spatial-temporal rupture would rip the [[Time Vortex]] apart.


Through [[the Master]] (during his time as [[Harold Saxon]]), Rassilon managed to allow the Time Lords and Gallifrey to escape the [[Time-lock]] surrounding the war in order to complete the Ultimate Sanction. However, they were prevented from doing so by [[Tenth Doctor|the Doctor]] who sent them back into the Time-lock thus preventing the horrors they would unleash on the universe.

An essentially-suicidal measure, Rassilon then devised a way of allowing the [[Time Lords]] to escape the disintegration of Creation by having the whole race shed their corporeal bodies and become creatures of consciousness alone, ones that would escape the effects of time and of cause and effect ([[DW]]:[[The End of Time]]).

Proposed by Rassilon as the last resort to winning the Last Great Time War, this plan involved the creation of a paradox so severe that the resulting spatial-temporal rupture would rip the Time Vortex apart.

An essentially-suicidal measure, Rassilon then devised a way of allowing the Time Lords to escape the disintegration of Creation by having the whole race shed their corporeal bodies and become creatures of consciousness alone, ones that would escape the effects of time and of cause and effect (DW:The End of Time).

But this plan was foiled when the Eighth Doctor managed to come into possession of the Moment and used it to not only destroy every last participant of the Last Great Time War, but also to place a time lock on the Last Great Time War itself {DW:The Stolen Earth).

Nevertheless, Rassilon nearly succeeded in this mad plan when his sleeper agent, the Master, used the Whitepoint Star diamond, that he had sent to Earth, in a nuclear bolt as a way to send a rhythmic signal of four beats, the heartbeat of a Time Lord, into time and space. Rassilon then used that signal as a homing beacon through which he could use in order to break himself and Gallifrey (in addition to every other participant of the Last Great Time War) out of the time lock and begin the End of Time.

However, Rassilon was once again foiled when the Tenth Doctor used Wilfred Mott's old service revolver to destroy the Whitepoint Star, the key component of the signal being generated by the nuclear bolt that allowed the escape from the time lock, and Gallifrey was plunged back into its last day; the day when it burned.
