Index → Timey-wimey detector → Timeline - The Master (Tremas)
Spoilers are strongly policed here.
If this thread's title doesn't specify it's spoilery, don't bring any up.

This page lists appearances of the Tremas Master played by Anthony Ainley in the order in which he experienced them. It relies on much speculation to fit semi-contradictory sources together, and should absolutely not be seen as representative of this wiki's general policy.

After the Thirteenth Master stole the body of Tremas, this new Master adopted a rather distinct persona. The full timeline of the Thirteenth Master can be found here.

Timeline

Previous page: Timeline - Thirteenth Master

First exploits

Set almost immediately after The Keeper of Traken. The Master's thwarted plan to hold the universe at ransom results in the Fourth Doctor regenerating.
Set immediately after Logopolis, with the Master trying to trap the Fifth Doctor in Castrovalva, only to end up trapped in there himself.
Set immediately after the Master abducts Adric during Castrovalva: Part One.
Set during Castrovalva: Part Two, before the Doctor is brought to the city.
The Master is still trapped in Castrovalva.
The Master has managed to escape from Castrovalva, but has damaged his TARDIS in the process. He attempts to use the Xeraphin gestalt to repair his ship, but is foiled by the Doctor and left trapped on Xeriphas.
The Master uses Kamelion, an android he found on Xeriphas, in an attempt to prevent the signing of the Magna Carta, but is thwarted when the Doctor takes Kamelion from him.

After the Game of Rassilon

The Master is summoned to Gallifrey by Borusa to assist the four trapped incarnations of the Doctor, but his help is denied and he attempts to kill the Doctors instead. After being subdued, the Master is sent away by Rassilon.
The Master has been exiled and stripped of his Trakenite body by the Time Lords for his failure in The Five Doctors, but he is able to regain it by siphoning energy from his past incarnations.
After he is shrunk by his own Tissue Compression Eliminator, the Master tries to use the Numismaton Gas of Sarn to restore himself, but is apparently disintegrated by the Doctor.
Follows on from Planet of Fire, with the Master using the Fountain of Youth to restore his burned body.

Interfering in history

Further schemes

Deadlier campaigns

The Master is wearing his clothes from Survival.

The Cheetah World gambit

Fates

According to one account, immediately after escaping Cheetah World with his Kitling, Shadow, the Master is transmigrated to Earth, but a release of Artron energy knocks him back thirty-two years in time. Arriving in 1957 America, he makes contact with the Tzun Confederacy and arranges a deal between them. They retrieve his TARDIS from the planet Antari Three, and provide him with Nanites that cured him of the Cheetah virus and supposedly gave him a new regenerative cycle. Shortly after his body is repaired, the Master is shot by Ace and regenerates into a new body.
According to another account, the Master, driven insane by the stress of the Cheetah World, swallows a Deathworm Morphant as part of a plot intended to kill the Doctor. He then travels to Skaro in order to goad the Daleks into killing him, sending his TARDIS into the space-time continuum to keep it safe until he can recover it, supposedly leading directly into Doctor Who. By this account, the Master's last encounter with the Doctor was in Survival.
According to a third account, the Master lost his Trakenite body after the Warp Core destroyed it, reducing him back to his decaying form.
