Biography
Regeneration
Recently liberated from the Human form of Professor Yana, he fatally wounded his assistant, Chantho, who though dying, fired a gun at him. The wounded Master managed to get into the Doctor's TARDIS. He decided that since the Doctor had a youthful new body, he could do and so regenerated into one. The Master then left the Doctor on the planet Malcassairo with Futurekind about to burst in the laboratory door. (DW: Utopia)
Career pre-election
The Master took the stolen TARDIS to Earth, about one and a half years before the Doctor had met his current companion Martha Jones. He took on the name Harold Saxon and began establishing an identity for himself as a politician. He was active from at least April 2007 when he started campaigning for the general election as Prime Minister of Great Britain (DW: Love & Monsters). By Christmas] of 2007 he had enough authority to order the US Army to destroy the [[Empress of the Racnoss]'s webstar. (DW: The Christmas Invasion)
He used the simple slogan "Vote Saxon" (TW: Captain Jack Harkness) "Saxon" asserted that extraterrestrial life did exist and that the British must do something about the fact. This stance made him popular in early 2008 after reports from the Judoon having transported the Royal Hope Hospital to the Moon (DW: Smith and Jones)
As Prime Minister
In 2008, he was elected as Prime Minister (DW: The Sound of Drums / Last of the Time Lords).
It was also at this point that he revealed himself as the Master. Defeated by the Doctor using telekinesis gained from the psychic energy of everyone on Earth and shot and killed by his wife and companion Lucy Saxon. Refuses to regenerate and dies for good... perhaps.
