A multi-Master story is a story featuring two or more different incarnations of the Master. There are several different ways a "multi-Master story" can be defined; here, stories are sorted according to several different definitions. This list includes stories with flashbacks, but excludes stories featuring only pictures or archive footage of other incarnations.

Direct encounters

In these stories, multiple incarnations of the Master encounter each other directly, either in person, through a screen, through a phone, through a psychic link, etc. Italicisation means that the relevant Master did not directly encounter another Master in the story.
