Characters
References
- Clastivas works on a Type 58 TARDIS.
- Some Type 45 and Type 50 TARDISes can take human form.
- Maris has retired from the Celestial Intervention Agency.
- Maris' potential engine shows other incarnations of the Doctor, including a colourful one with a big grin and a smeared image that has eyes with wild and dark potential.
Notes
- As The Dark Path describes Koschei's TARDIS as a Type 45, the rumours mentioned in this story about Type 45 TARDISes having the ability take human forms exist to allude to the possibility that the Master's TARDIS was the same timeship who later became Lolita.
Continuity
- Several accounts exist of the Doctor's birth, including one recording him being loomed in the House of Lungbarrow, (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible, Lungbarrow) and another recording him being born to a human mother and Time Lord father, (TV: Doctor Who; PROSE: The Infinity Doctors, The Gallifrey Chronicles) under the sign of the Crossed Computers.

- Maris finds accounts saying the Doctor was expelled from the Time Lord Academy, (PROSE: Divided Loyalties) and others claiming he graduated with fifty-one percent, (TV: The Ribos Operation) whilst one record she finds claims he studied instead at "Time Lord University". (COMIC: The Friendly Place)
- One record indicates the Doctor was involved in a riot days before stealing the TARDIS. (PROSE: Birth of a Renegade)
