One more distinct incarnation of the Hermit who I would suggest to get his own page is Paul Cornell's one-eyed hooded Hermit who appears in ''[[Timewyrm: Revelation (novel)]]'' and ''[[The Three Paths (short story)]]''. Even though that Hermit is indicated to be the body which mentored the Doctor and did the "daisiest daisy" thing from ''The Time Monster'', Cornell brings a distinct interpretation and physical appearance to the character which isn't seen in other interpretations of the Doctor's childhood and therefore I think should get its own page. Come to think of it, that version of the hermit is rather similar to ''The Taking of Planet 5''{{'}}s...

::: I like the idea of keeping a K'anpo | ::: I like the idea of keeping a K'anpo page, and making ones for the other identities namedropped in ''[[Blood of the Time Lords (audio story)|Blood of the Time Lords]]'', using the precedent of [[Harold Saxon]] and its ilk — but we can't just make "[[The Hermit]]" the Time Lord page that runs with the K'anpo and Ansillon lore, because that leaves us short of a [[Time Lord messenger (Genesis of the Daleks)]]-style page for "just the basic hermit-on-the-mountain, ''sans'' later backstories" on which we could document Azmael, and other potential non-K'anpo-aligned elaborations on the concept. Or else we'd be back to having to put ''that'' on [[Hermit (The Time Monster)]], ''separately'' from the "The Hermit" page being about the Ansillon/K'anpo/etc. Time Lord of many faces? <span style="color: #baa3d6;font-family:Comic Sans;">[[User:Scrooge MacDuck|'''Scrooge MacDuck''']]</span> <span style="color: #baa3d6;">[[User_talk:Scrooge MacDuck|⊕]]</span> 19:42, 19 April 2022 (UTC) | ||
