Wolfgang Ryter
Wolfgang "Wolfie" Ryter was a companion to the Tenth Doctor.
Biography
Wolfie was a bright, sixteen year old exchange student from Austria who wrote a blog about UFO sightings. At the airport one day, he found one of the planes was a monster and helped the Tenth Doctor and Heather defeat it. (DWA: Flight of the Giurgeax) He left the Doctor and Heather after (DWA: Bad Wolfie) the three of them visited Cambodia in 1139 and Wolfie was turned into a wolf. He needed a break and the Doctor took him back to Salzburg. [statement unclear]
In the years following his travels with the Doctor, Wolfie pursued his studies in quantum physics. He was a freelance alien hunter by night like Heather. The two reunited four years after Heather's travels with the Doctor ended. Wolfie and Heather saw the Doctor one more time, when he saved their lives and then departed to check on Rose in 2005 and to face his regeneration. (DWA: Lucky Heather)

Behind the scenes
- Wolfgang "Wolfie" Ryter was created by twelve-year-old Hamish Gough. Wolfie was the winning creation of the second comic companion competition sponsored by Doctor Who Adventures.
- Wolfie is currently the Second companion to leave the TARDIS immediately after being possessed by an Alien entity/Intelligence. The first was Dodo Chaplet
- In the order of publication, Wolfgang joined the Doctor after Heather McCrimmon, who joined after Donna Noble had left. Given statements made in the post-Journey's End era regarding the Doctor refusing to take on ongoing companions after Donna, Heather and Wolfgang's presence either violates TV continuity, or take place at some earlier point in the Tenth Doctor's life, likely between DW: Voyage of the Damned and Partners in Crime.
