Biography
Backstory
After being placed on trial by the Daleks, (TV: Doctor Who [+]Loading...["Doctor Who (TV story)"]) the Dalek Litigator judged the Master guilty, ordering him to be exterminated as his punishment. (AUDIO: Vengeance) Before he was executed by the Daleks on Skaro, he made a final request: for the Seventh Doctor to transport his remains back to Gallifrey.
However, en route, the Master used a Deathworm Morphant to interfere with the TARDIS, causing a timing malfunction that resulted in an emergency landing in San Francisco during the final days of 1999, where the Doctor was struck down in a gang war and the Master managed to escape the TARDIS and hide inside a bag belonging to ambulance driver Bruce Gerhardt. The Master later forced his way into Bruce's body, killing him and taking over his body. Now in Bruce's body, the Master tried to steal the body of the Eighth Doctor, only to fall into the Eye of Harmony, (TV: Doctor Who) where he would remain trapped for a long time, (AUDIO: The Lifeboat and the Deathboat) until Bruce's body was unable to survive in the Eye and slowly came apart.
