-'''Claire Thompson''' ([[PROSE]]: ''[[My Special Book (short story)|My Special Book]]'') was the wife of [[Alex Thompson|Alex]] and the mother of [[George Thompson|George]]. She could not have children, even though she and Alex tried [[IVF]] treatment. In [[January]] [[2003]], their son George was "born". He was a [[Tenza]] who used a [[perception filter]] to appear as their son. George had many rituals before going to bed, because of his fears. In [[2011]], Claire and Alex suggested they get him a doctor. Shortly afterwards, the [[Eleventh Doctor]] showed up and got George to face and defeat his fears. A [[nurse]], Claire returned after a night shift to see her boy happy and no longer afraid. ([[TV]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'')

+'''Claire Thompson''' ([[PROSE]]: ''[[My Special Book (short story)|My Special Book]]'') was the partner of [[Alex Thompson|Alex]] in the [[21st century]]. They had a child, [[George Thompson|George]], who wasn't all that he seemed, as he was actually a [[Tenza]] — a [[cuckoo]]-like alien — who had nested with Alex and Claire many years before, unbeknownst to them.
+== Biography ==
+When Claire was young, she owned a collection of [[peg doll (Night Terrors)|peg dolls]] and [[Claire Thompson's dolls house|a dolls house]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[My Special Book (short story)|My Special Book]]'')
+By [[2002]], Alex and Claire tried [[pregnancy|to conceive]] a child, but they found that Claire [[infertility|couldn't have children]], despite trying treatments like [[IVF]]. On [[Christmas Eve]], they attended a party, and Claire wasn't pregnant at the time. However, in [[2003]], a newly-hatched [[Tenza]] came to Earth, assimilating itself into the "[[nest]]" of Alex and Claire, made possible by the Tenza's natural [[perception filter]] and [[psychic field]], and the Tenza was "born" around [[11 January]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'') or on [[11 February]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'') The Tenza was named [[George Thompson|George]] by his new parents. ([[TV]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[Night Terrors (short story)|Night Terrors]]'')
+As a family, Alex, Claire and George lived in [[58 Rowbarton House|a flat]] in the [[Rowbarton Estate]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Night Terrors (short story)|Night Terrors]]'') and by the time George was [[5 (number)|five]], they used the [[lift]] in the estate, but they ceased using it sometime later as it kept breaking down. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[My Special Book (short story)|My Special Book]]'') Over the next few years, George developed [[phobia]]s of many things in his life, and Alex believed he had [[pantophobia]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'') When George was [[7.25|seven and a quarter]], Claire gave George a "[[George Thompson's Special Book|special book]]" and some [[pencil]]s, so George could write about things he had thought of and seen. He initially wrote about things he liked, but then wrote much more about what scared him, although he kept this a secret. George often made Alex and Claire cry, and this began to make George think he was going to be taken away. One night, George had a [[nightmare]] about his mother's old peg dolls trying to suffocate him, and when he awoke his screaming woke up Alex and Claire, who had work to go to shortly. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[My Special Book (short story)|My Special Book]]'') Claire was later photographed eating [[ice cream]] with George. ([[TV]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'') George and Claire developed, what George called a "special thing", where anything that scared George would be put in [[George Thompson's cupboard|his cupboard]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Night Terrors (TV story)|Night Terrors]]'', [[PROSE]]: ''[[My Special Book (short story)|My Special Book]]'')
+By [[2011]], Claire seemingly worked a night shift in a medical profession. Some time after George's birthday, Alex told Claire that George needed to see a [[doctor]], and she went to work, telling Alex she would call someone. After the [[Eleventh Doctor]], [[Amy Pond|Amy]], and [[Rory Williams|Rory]] arrived in the estate following George's psychic message to the Doctor's [[the Doctor's psychic paper|psychic paper]], Amy and other residents of the estate were transformed into peg dolls after being sent into George's cupboard, the Doctor deduced that George was actually a Tenza and that his fears were being amplified by his alien biology, and Alex convinced his son that he loved him, helping George overcome his fears, Claire returned home in the morning, taken aback by George being "sorted".
