Doom of the Daleks (game)

Uniquely, it was the only original Adventure included in the 50th Anniversary sourcebooks - as the Sourcebook for the Eighth Doctor only covered two televised stories featuring that incarnation, a whole new campaign was written set during the Time War.

Divided into separate individual "episodes", it was the longest Adventure released for Adventures in Time and Space, and the last adventure prior to the game's rebranding as Doctor Who Roleplaying Game.

The adventure saw the Player Characters recruited to save the Doctor, though one of the players could still play as the Doctor if they wished.

Synopsis

At some point in his past, the Daleks hit the Doctor with a weapon called the Temporal Exterminator, which erodes the target's timeline "forward and backwards." The Player Characters are recruited to gather "temporal traces" through the Doctor's timeline to pinpoint the exact moment he was hit with the weapon and prevent his death.

Characters

(Note that due to the fluid, interactive nature of tabletop roleplaying games, not all of these characters will be encountered during the story and/or may be swapped out or modified at the Gamemaster's discretion.)

Worldbuilding

People

Dr. Martin Harper is a friend of Grace Holloway's, and works at Walker Hospital.

Notes

The story revisited key locations and characters from the First through Eighth Doctors' lives. Most notably, the story featured scenes set in Walker General Hospital morgue, where the Seventh Doctor regenerated into the Eighth.
