Cobweb (Black Sun Rising)
Cobweb was a female parahuman in the early times of the Time Lord civilisation. She was a member of the Special Executive, a team working for the Time Lords. She was the best telepath of the team.
During a trilateral negotiation on Desrault, she was part of the Gallifreyan delegation. When the Sontaran Brilox brainwashed her colleague Millenium, she was the first to sense it, since their psychic link went broken. She was sent to search for her, but Wardog found her first.

Behind the scenes
Invalid appearances
In the Walking in Eternity short story Executive Action Cobweb appears alongside other members of the Special Executive including Wardog, Fascination and Zeitgeist. It is explained that the Special Executive are Parahumans, early Loom-born experiments ordered by Rassilon, who are embued with time energies which give them strange abilities. The prototypes were rejected and thus became known as 'The Bastards of Rassilon', although they continue to be used by the High Council to do the Time Lord's dirty work. During a civil war on Gallifrey between the Loom-born and womb-born Gallifreyans, the Special Executive departed Gallifrey leaving the two sides to battle it out.
Cobweb has a cameo appearance in Alan Moore's comic story You Better Watch Out You Better Not Cry... for Top 10 where she can be seen walking down a street alongside another Moore creation, Laurel Lakeland, who also goes by the alias Cobweb.
