The Master's TARDIS is the TARDIS of the renegade Time Lord, The Master, who appears to have had multiple different TARDISes throughout his engagements with the Doctor.

History

During his Earth-based vendetta against the Doctor and UNIT, the Master used a TARDIS with a Mark II dematerialisation circuit. (DW: Terror of the Autons) Unlike the Doctor's TARDIS, the Master's TARDIS had a fully functioning chameleon circuit.

One TARDIS used by the Master was destroyed on Traken (DW:The Keeper of Traken). The ultimate fate of

his other TARDIS (or TARDISes) is unknown. It can be assumed that the Master was separated from it when he was stranded on the Cheetah World. (DW: Survival) Whether he recovered it or not is unknown, as he is not seen again using a TARDIS of his own.

A Type 45 TARDIS the Master owned eventually evolved to become Lolita, a sentient TARDIS who took humanoid form. (CP: Toy Story)

Exterior

During his rivalry with the Doctor, the Master changed his TARDIS into several different forms:

On Traken, the Master disguised a TARDIS as the Melkur. In this form, the TARDIS was mobile and it could fire sonic attacks. When this TARDIS was destroyed, he fled in another TARDIS kept inside the other, this one again disguised as a grandfather clock. (DW: The Keeper of Traken)

While preparing a trap for the Doctor, the Master temporarily changed his ship into a police box, then later hid it inside the Cloister room disguised as tree and finally as a brown ionic column. (DW: Logopolis) He would then tend to the doric column as his TARDIS's "default" exterior. (DW: Castrovalva, Time-Flight,or a 3 sided Stone Column in (Planet of Fire)

Interior

The Master's TARDIS has had a varied interior. In its first appearance on-screen in (DW: Terror of the Autons), we only see the scanner. Later interiors seems to mimic the Doctor's re-designs of his own TARDIS. (DW: The Time Monster)

Much of the time it is simply a sombre black version of the interior of the Doctor's TARDIS, sometimes with specialist equipment such as the Hadron web which he used to hold Adric. (DW: Castrovalva)

The Master's library

Like the Doctor, the Master's TARDIS had a well-stocked library. The Master's interests, however, tended toward the evil and arcane. Among the more diabolical works he possessed were the Necronomicon, shelved between the Liber Inducens in Evangelium Aeternum and The Black Scrolls of Rassilon. It also included the Book of Vile and its Black Appendix, The Ambuehl Lores, and the Insidium of Astrolabus (PDA: The Quantum Archangel)

It can also be assumed that it contained a copy of The War of the Worlds (DW: Frontier in Space)

Specific Systems

Once, the Master tricked the Doctor into materializing his TARDIS around the Master's, creating a dimensionally recursive loop (DW: Logopolis), repeating a situation that had previously occurred accidentally. (DW: The Time Monster)
