Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
Early life[[edit] | [edit source]]
Sheena grew up in Glasgow in the 20th century. After attending university, she lived in the Middle East and worked with the United Nations in Jordan, helping refugees in the wake of the Israel-Palestine War. During her time in the Middle East, she learnt how to sail on the Mediterranean Sea.
Sheena married a man who wanted to escape city life and return to nature. The two moved from Glasgow to Cape Wrath to work as crofters, but her husband left her after less than a year. Having found that she preferred living in the country to city life, Sheena chose to remain at Cape Wrath. (AUDIO: Wrath of the Ice Warriors)
The Ice Warriors[[edit] | [edit source]]
Whilst painting a late summer sunset, Sheena saw the arrival of Lady Zelanda's spacecraft and fled, accidentally falling off of a cliff. The Ice Warriors saw to her wounds, fitting her heart with a machine, and Lady Zelanda manipulated her into believing that she and her faction were refugees who needed asylum. Sheena agreed to be their eyes and ears on the mainland and to keep them hidden until they decided to contact the authorities.
Sheena met the Second Doctor and Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart and twice betrayed them by informing Lady Zelanda of Skaar's capture by UNIT and by giving UNIT the incorrect coordinates when Tam Walsh told them where he encountered Skaar. The Doctor realised this, in part due to her having drawn an Ice Warrior other than Skaar, and she soon became aware that she had been tricked when Lady Zelanda took her, the Doctor and the Brigadier to her underwater base and accelerated her plans.
Sheena helped the Doctor save the Brigadier and Skaar from execution and was forcibly taken to Mars. She and the Doctor were able to escape the Fortress Citadel, but she was taken hostage by Lady Zelanda and accidentally pushed her off of a cliff at the Strasis Rift during a struggle. Upon returning to Earth, she said goodbye to the Doctor and watched the TARDIS dematerialise. (AUDIO: Wrath of the Ice Warriors)
Legacy[[edit] | [edit source]]
Having seen that the Doctor worked best with allies, Raven decided to send him somewhere. (AUDIO: Wrath of the Ice Warriors)
Personality[[edit] | [edit source]]
Sheena was very sympathetic to the plight of refugees after her time in the Middle East, allowing Lady Zelanda to manipulate her. She enjoyed painting and drawing, although she considered it to be very much a hobby. (AUDIO: Wrath of the Ice Warriors)
