The [[Timeless Child]]'s '''species''' were a largely unknown [[species]] from an unknown "[[Timeless Child's realm|realm]]", being, according to {{Dhawan}}, [[the Doctor]]'s original [[the Doctor's species|species]] as the Timeless Child.


== Biology ==
They resembled [[Time Lord]]s externally. However, this species was distinguished from the later Time Lords of [[Gallifrey]] by at least one feature: they naturally held the ability to [[regenerate]] into [[Incarnation|new bodies]] indefinitely, while the Time Lords needed to have an injection to splice the ability into their bodies. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Timeless Children (TV story)|The Timeless Children]]'')
== Life cycle ==
When a member of this species was severely injured, their bodies would emit [[regeneration energy]] that could cause damage to the surrounding area.
When this happened, their appearance would change as well as their personality. The Master theorised that this race could regenerate an infinite amount of times. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Timeless Children (TV story)|The Timeless Children]]'') However the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] believed that the species possessed only twelve regenerations. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Secret of the Timeless Child (short story)|The Secret of the Timeless Child]]'')
== History ==
The Timeless Child, the only known member of this species, was found by the [[Shobogan (species)|Shobogan]] [[explorer]] [[First Tecteun|Tecteun]] near a [[monument]] on an [[Planet (The Timeless Children)|unknown planet]]. The Child was stood beneath a [[wormhole]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Timeless Children (TV story)|The Timeless Children]]'') to [[Universe Two]]. This universe was theorised by [[Awsok Tecteun|Tecteun]] to possibly be home to the [[Timeless Child's realm]], although the Doctor was not so sure if that was the case. ([[TV]]: ''[[Survivors of the Flux (TV story)|Survivors of the Flux]]'')
After being brought to Gallifrey by Tecteun, the Timeless Child's [[biodata]] was used as a template to allow for regeneration in other Shobogans within the [[Citadel]]. Copying this ability had allowed them to become Time Lords, with {{Dhawan}} noting that a little bit of the Doctor had been inside him all along. Unlike the Timeless Child's species, however, their copied version was limited to [[Life cycle|sets of twelve]], though this appeared to be a decision made by Tecteun rather than a shortcoming.
