| === Capturing the Eleven ===
| | Through her lives, Ollistra was a heartless [[politician]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Innocent (audio story)|The Innocent]]'', ''[[The Side of the Angels (audio story)|The Side of the Angels]]'') |
| After [[the Eleven]] opened the [[Dark Universe]], she conversed with [[Ace]] about what to do with the Eleven and decided to invade [[Gallifrey]]. She was one of the last [[Time Lord]]s alive and was the most senior after [[Romana II]] and her high council were the first to be destroyed by the Eleven's plans. She helped to then trap the Eleven and gloated slightly when the universe was restored. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dark Universe (audio story)|Dark Universe]]'')

| === Opposing Padrac ===
| | Late in her lifetime, one of [[Ollistra (The Side of the Angels)|Olistra's last incarnations]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Conscript (audio story)|The Conscript]]'') was a part of the [[High Council]], and had dealings with [[the Doctor]], both in his [[Seventh Doctor|seventh]] ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Dark Universe (audio story)|Dark Universe]]'') and [[Eighth Doctor|eighth incarnations]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Side of the Angels (audio story)|The Side of the Angels]]'') |
| With [[Gallifrey]] being taken over by [[Cardinal]] [[Padrac]], Cardinal Ollistra sent [[Veklin]] and [[Volstrom]] to [[spy]] on him and learn of his plans whilst also recruiting his opposition on the [[High Council]]. Ollistra and the opposition [[councillor]]s formed the [[Planning Council]] in [[New York City]], starting to build [[the Enclave|an Enclave]] with the help of [[The Monk (The Black Hole)|the Monk]] and the [[Weeping Angel]]s to survive the end of the universe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Songs of Love (audio story)|Songs of Love]]'', ''[[The Side of the Angels (audio story)|The Side of the Angels]]'')

|
| Ollistra showed the city to the [[Eighth Doctor]] and was admonished by him for it, although she continued to believe that it was the right thing to do. When [[Caleera|the Sonomancer]] caused a [[power cut]] for the benefit of the Angels, Ollistra and the Doctor returned to the planning office where [[the Eleven]] pushed her from the roof. Witnessed by Veklin, she [[regeneration|regenerated]] and said that "Gallifrey must stand". ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Side of the Angels (audio story)|The Side of the Angels]]'')
| | In her [[War Ollistra|next incarnation]], Ollistra was a part of the [[War Council]], and was a forefront of the Time Lord's efforts against the [[Dalek]]s during the [[Last Great Time War]]. Initially, she tried to get the Eighth Doctor to join the ranks, ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Echoes of War (audio story)|Echoes of War]]'', ''[[The Conscript (audio story)|The Conscript]]'') and by the time he regenerated into the [[War Doctor]], she actively joined him in several missions, much to his despise. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Innocent (audio story)|The Innocent]]'', et al.) |
| | |
| === The Last Great Time War ===
| |
| ==== Working with the Eighth Doctor ====
| |
| During the [[Last Great Time War]], Ollistra was given special dispensation to conduct operations by the [[War Council]]. She was off-world by the time of [[Rassilon]]’s coming to power. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Assassins (audio story)|Assassins]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra organised a battle over a [[Planet (Echoes of War)|planet]] to trap a Dalek fleet and test the effectiveness of the [[Type 120]] [[TARDIS]]es. In initiating the battle. Ollistra had caused the destruction of the planet and corrupted its timeline. Her troops captured the Doctor and refugees from the ''[[Theseus (ship)|Theseus]],'' [[Bliss (The Starship of Theseus)|Bliss]], [[Rupa Maguire]] and [[Quarren Maguire]]. She ordered the Doctor be pressed into service. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Echoes of War (audio story)|Echoes of War]]'')
| |
| | |
| Returning to the base on the [[Moon of Tenacity]], she placed the Doctor under the command of Commander [[Harlan (The Conscript)|Harlan]] and had his companions kept for interrogation. She threatened Bliss that she could just let her disappear as a casualty of the War if she didn’t comply. She wanted to find more about Rupa and Quarren. When a [[Dalek hunter drone]] was caught on the Moon, she ordered an evacuation and reluctantly allowed Harlan to let the Doctor go. As the Daleks invaded, she caught the Doctor as he was leaving and threatened to shoot him so that she could get his next incarnation to join the war. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Conscript (audio story)|The Conscript]]'') She was interrupted by the arrival of the Daleks broke in the structure, leaving all her guards behind to escape in [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] with him and his companions. She discovered that the Daleks were using a reversal wave on the system. She was after the CIA weapon that was stored on the ''[[Theseus (ship)|Theseus]]''. Using material she got from the CIA, she discovered that Quarren was a missing CIA weapon that could rewrite [[reality]] with his [[mind]] who had hidden using a [[Chameleon Arch]]. After they crashed on [[Jedris]], she used a [[hypercube]] to summon Time Lord forces. When they arrived and engaged the Daleks by accelerating time, she used a [[Temporal flare|Temporal Flare]] to attract a [[Battle TARDIS]]. Despite the Doctor being lost in the shifting landscape of Jedris, she ordered the TARDIS to leave. Angry, Quarren returned to his Time Lord identity to save him, sending Ollistra back to [[Gallifrey]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[One Life (audio story)|One Life]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra was informed when [[the Twelve]]’s memories of [[Uzmal]] appeared to have been unlocked by a Dalek interrogation. She recruited the Doctor and Bliss to help her investigate the Daleks’ interest on the planet, as the mission was far from the front lines. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[In the Garden of Death (audio story)|In the Garden of Death]]'') She and Major [[Fifth Tamasan|Tamasan]] took control of one resistance submarine, putting the Doctor in charge of a second one. When the Doctor managed to make contact with the dying [[Ourashima]] Ollistra enthusiastically accepted its offer of its powers of precognition and was infuriated when the Doctor refused. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Jonah (audio story)|Jonah]]'') Afterwards she informed the Doctor of suspicious irregularities in Bliss’ timeline. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[State of Bliss (audio story)|State of Bliss]]'') | |
| | |
| Ollistra sponsored a Time Lord project to weaponise the [[Vashta Nerada]] against the Daleks by altering their [[biodata]] so that they could consume [[Dalekanium]]. Ollistra met the Doctor, who had arrived at the station independently, just as the Vashta Nerada began to fight back. After the Doctor had got her to safety, Ollistra pleaded with him to join the fighting. The Doctor refused, reminding her he was a doctor, not a warrior. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Day of the Vashta Nerada (audio story)|Day of the Vashta Nerada]]'')

| | |
| ==== Working with the War Doctor ====
| |
| Ollistra was present when a Gallifreyan reported the destruction of the Dalek fleet and the death of the Doctor. Horrified, Ollistra lamented Time Lord soldiers [[Bennus]] and [[Arverton]] when they allowed the [[War Doctor]] to activate the Dalek [[Time Destructor]] instead of them, a blast no Time Lord could survive. Ollistra attended the Doctor's funeral, sceptical of his demise. With her strong belief that the Doctor was still alive, she sent [[Veklin]] to search for him. After gaining control of the [[Eye of Harmony]] of [[the Doctor's TARDIS]], Ollistra pulled the Doctor from [[Keska]] when he refused to go home. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Innocent (audio story)|The Innocent]]'')
| |
| | |
| She later built a team, consisting of the War Doctor, Veklin, [[Bennus]] and [[Arverton]], to rescue [[Seratrix]], a Time Lord strategist, in the "[[Null Zone]]". ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Thousand Worlds (audio story)|The Thousand Worlds]]'')
| |
| | |
| It was later revealed that the scheme underneath the mission was to purge the idea of Seratrix to make peace with the [[Dalek]]. The reason why she sent the "rescue team" was because she believed that the Doctor, Bennus, and Arverton were followers of the belief of Seratrix so they should be killed together with him.
| |
| | |
| After the War Doctor stopped the plan of the Daleks to explode the thousand planets, Ollistra came and revealed her plan to the Doctor. After that, she brought the Doctor to the future of Keska to show how the planet recuperated from the invasion of the Daleks. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Heart of the Battle (audio story)|The Heart of the Battle]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra caught up with the Doctor after he used [[the Annihilator]] to erase the [[Technomancer]]s, placing him under arrest as a war criminal. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Legion of the Lost (audio story)|Legion of the Lost]]'')
| |
| | |
| She was looking for the Doctor in order for him to understand the whether they should use the [[anima device]]. She then decided to take on a mission to [[Asteroid Theta 12]] to discover the secrets that they were the war council was hearing. She was reluctant to save [[Jarad]]. She discovered the research that the Daleks were doing. The Doctor got her to use the anima device in order to destroy the Dalek fleet. The Doctor left her behind on the Asteroid. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[A Thing of Guile (audio story)|A Thing of Guile]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra followed the Doctor to the [[Neverwhen]] as his TARDIS was used to travelling to strange places. She was interested in the results of the weapon that created the Neverwhen, especially because it resurrected Time Lords. The Doctor later used it to create a state of peace where both Daleks and Time Lords were farmers. Ollistra planned to use it along with the [[Neverwhen]] to destroy [[Skaro]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Neverwhen (audio story)|The Neverwhen]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra had [[Heleyna]] to contact the Doctor when the [[quantum shield]] around [[Earth]] was breached. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Shadow Vortex (audio story)|The Shadow Vortex]]'')
| |
| | |
| She went to a retreat to gain information about a Dalek Spy in the High Council, where she was taken by General [[Fesk]] to be used as a bargaining chip between the Sontarans and both the Daleks and the Time Lords to let them into the war. She discussed the beginnings of the war with the [[Dalek Time Strategist]]. She was rescued when Fesk was trapped with the Doctor with their temporal weapon. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Eternity Cage (audio story)|The Eternity Cage]]'')
| |
| | |
| She was then taken prisoner by Heleyna and who was the spy. Ollistra then used the [[Battle TARDIS]]' to save the Doctor when he was falling through the [[Rovidia]]n atmosphere. She fell to the lower levels of the TARDIS and ended up in the infirmary. Heleyna wanted her as she was one of the [[War Council]] and had access to the Eye, to punish her for the death of Heleyna's grandfather and prevent the war from ever happening. After the Daleks were stopped she helped the Doctor to set the time rotor to get them out of the time vortex. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Eye of Harmony (audio story)|Eye of Harmony]]'')
| |
| | |
| The Doctor and Ollistra were then captured and sent on an escape capture to be picked up by the Daleks. The Doctor managed to avoid capture by flying the capsule to [[Beltox]]. Her main concern was getting back to Gallifrey, but when the Daleks arrived she first organised the retreat of the locals and then the defence of Beltox. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Pretty Lies (audio story)|Pretty Lies]]'')
| |
| | |
| On [[Grend]], she managed to get a message to the war council and asked for a complete Time Fleet to be sent there. [[Freel]] arrived to take her back to Gallifrey, but she was annoyed that only a fleet of 20 Battle TARDISes were sent. She then got those 20 TARDIS to defend Grend. Later when the Doctor arrived, he came with the Fifth Time Fleet and Commander [[Veklin]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Lady of Obsidian (audio story)|The Lady of Obsidian]]'')
| |
| | |
| On returning to Gallifrey, she was the highest-ranking Time Lord not in deep hiding due to [[the Enigma]]. She started to not trust Leela because of her savagery. When the Enigma arrived on Gallifrey she thought that the Daleks had won. She helped to explore the dimension she was in and helped with the Doctor's theorising of what was going on and why Leela was being communicated. She thought that the TARDIS was dead and didn't like the Doctor's patronisation. She welcomed the Enigma found the compassion using Leela and asked the Enigma to destroy the Daleks instead. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Enigma Dimension (audio story)|The Enigma Dimension]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra signed an order allowing a team of Time Lords, headed by Councilor [[Voltrix]], to open a rift into the universe of the [[Great Vampire]]s, allowing them to destroy a fleet of Dalek saucers. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Bidding War (comic story)|The Bidding War]]'')
| |
| | |
| == Personality ==
| |
| Ollistra was a heartless [[politician]], so much so that [[Bennus]] and [[Arverton]] joked over the existence of Ollistra's [[emotion]]s, and was also deeply [[patriotism|patriotic]], allowing [[Gallifreyan]]s to sacrifice themselves for the greater good. She displayed a discontent with the Gallifreyan armed forces, telling two soldiers "The Doctor is worth a hundred of you... people!". ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Innocent (audio story)|The Innocent]]'')
| |
| | |
| Ollistra was regularly callous and decadent and retained the mindset that any act done in the name of [[Gallifrey]]'s victory of the [[Time War]] was a necessary means to that end; to this extent, she threatened to force the [[Eighth Doctor]] to regenerate in the hopes of making him more co-operative in the war effort. ([[AUDIO|AUDIO:]] ''[[The Conscript (audio story)|The Conscript]]'')
| |
| | |
| === Relationship with the War Doctor ===
| |
| Although Ollistra respected the [[War Doctor]]'s efforts for [[Gallifrey]], she on occasion described him as "a thorn in [the [[Time Lord]]s'] side" and "an embarrassment for most of his lives". When he was presumed dead, Ollistra confessed that she felt the universe "a far more dangerous place without [him]", displaying that she had some level of recognition for his pursuits and actions.
