Richard Maynard was the servant of Lady Peinforte in Windsor in 1638. Before he entered her services, he was a hardened criminal who was found guilty on a great number of offences.

He assisted Lady Peinforte in her pursuit of the Statue of Nemesis, a statue of validium from Gallifrey which she shaped herself before the Doctor launched it into space on a rocket-sled. Through a time storm created by Fenric, though neither Richard nor Peinforte knew this, they travel through time to 1988 and arrived in Peinforte's house, which had been turned into a cafe.

Seeing this "horrible" future with its strange people and things, he wished to return to their own time, but Lady peinforte would not leave without the statue. When a battle broke out between the Cybermen and De Flores' neo-nazis, who also wanted the Nemesis, she fired two arrows and killed two Cybermen.

Later, they traveled to her tomb. Though her body was not there, the statue was due to the Cybermen moving it there. When deFlores arrived, Richard gave him the arrow and took Peinforte to safety against her wishes.

When they returned to seek the Nemesis, Peinforte went mad when the Doctor gave the Nemesis to the Cyber-Leader instead of her. She merged with the Nemesis and was destroyed in space when the Nemesis destroyed the Cyber-Fleet. The Doctor and Ace returned Richard to his own time. (DW: Silver Nemesis)
