The White Guardian originally assigned Romana to assist the Doctor during the quest for the Key to Time, the White Guardian having appeared to her as the Lord President of Gallifrey. Though she was much younger than the Doctor, she considered him Doctor an academic inferior. (DW: The Ribos Operation) However as searched for the various pieces of the Key to Time she came to respect the Doctor for his greater experience and knowledge versus her stolid academic credentials.
After the completion of the quest,Romana, for reasons that remain unclear regenerated into another incarnation.
The first Romana's form would later be used as the body for the Pandora entity, allowing it to take control of part of Gallifrey and begin a civil war. (BFG: Imperiatrix)
Personality
Though a young (about 120) and relatively inexperienced Time Lady, she was nevertheless extremely bright and capable, having obtained a triple first at the Academy. (The Doctor scraped through with a minimal passing score on his second attempt.) (DW: The Ribos Operation)
Romana was an exceptionally clever (even on-par with the Doctor), slightly bossy person. She possessed many personality points of the Doctor. In her first incarnation, she was more haughty and "by the book" and was occasionally annoyed by the Doctor's eccentricities.
