Profile
Biography
Innocet was older than the Doctor. They were very close when they were young. They had played together in the fields and forests around their home. She later came to detest the Doctor after he left Gallifrey when she was tricked into believing he had killed Quences. Her relationship with the Doctor improved greatly after he was able to prove his innocence and help his Family, and the two said good-bye with mutual respect. Innocet defended Owis and made his upbringing her own personal responsibility (although she seemed to have some moral disagreements with how Owis came to be). She greatly disapproved of her Cousin Glospin and his behavior.
Appearance
Innocet was a tall woman with red-brown hair. She had a thin face, lined from stress, though she excluded an aura of sternness. During the 673 years when Lungbarrow was buried and forgotten, Innocet refused to cut her hair, instead making it into one single long braid. Her braid was so long, the end of it was still red-brown (the color of her hair in her youth) but became darker in the middle, then gray, and finally the end growing from her scalp was pure white. In order to carry all her hair, she wound it into a bun that was too large and heavy to fit on her head, so she carried it on her back. The mass of her hair was so large she could not sit properly in a backed-chair, and perched instead on stools.
The Doctor cut her braid off as Innocet died and after regenerating Innocet had a much more youthful appearance with short brown hair. She was shorter than before and her face was fuller, though her personality remained largely unchanged.
Personality
Innocet was a very intelligent woman with great strength of character, who served as an anchoring point for the people around her. When tragedy befell her family, she took it upon herself to hold the family together. Innocet also had a highly refined sense of right and wrong, and was very careful to always act fairly. She had the ability to curb her own emotions which made her a rational thinker at all times. After Innocet had decided on a course of action, there was very little that could stop her from going through with it. After the House of Lungbarrow was destroyed by the insanity of Housekeeper Satthaltrope, Innocet was named the new Housekeeper, and the Doctor presented her with a seed from which a new House of Lungbarrow could be grown. She was thrilled to be given this position.
Abilities
Innocet could build a house out of Drat cards and used her telekinesis to hold the cards together until she was finished. At that point, she would let go of the house, and when it collapsed she was able to forsee omens of the future in the pattern the fallen cards make. (NA: Lungbarrow)
Possible Return
Although never expressly identified, The Woman who appeared to Wilfred Mott and objected to Rassilon's Final Solution may be Innocet, given that she mentions that she was 'lost' long ago and her implied connection to the Doctor (The End of Time)
