Boris (Dead of Winter): Difference between revisions

'''Prince Boris''' was a [[Russia]]n noble during the mid-to-late [[1700s]]. He was sent to [[St Christophe]] when he contracted tuberculosis, but was eventually cured by the [[Familiar]]. Unfortunately, he had long planned to take over the world, but he had never seen any point in carrying out his plans, as he was going to die anyway. With his days no longer numbered, he formed a link with the Familiar hive mind, allowing him to take control of it and use the normally-benevolent creature for malicious purposes; namely, possessing his fellow patients, making them into his own personal army. His plan was eventually defeated when the The Sea {{What?}} made the mistake of scanning the [[Eleventh Doctor]]'s mind; the accumulated pain he had felt over the centuries was too much for the Familiar, and it was destroyed. With his source of power gone, and its cure rapidly fading, Prince Boris was left to live out the last days of his life in St Christophe. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dead of Winter (novel)|Dead of Winter]]'')
