Valarie Lockwood
Valarie Lockwood was a companion of the Eleventh Doctor.
Biography
Early life
Valarie lived at 49 Gibson Avenue on Research Rig 6 with her mother, Patricia Lockwood. Like all humans on Earth in the 54th century, she was fitted with a neural interface at the age of three and later elected to have her limbs replaced with robotic versions (AUDIO: The Inheritance) and to be fitted with a universal translator. (AUDIO: The House of Masks)
Supported by her mother, Valarie attended university (AUDIO: The Inheritance) where she met a girl named Lemon-Drop, whose name she found unfortunate. (AUDIO: The House of Masks) She went on to become a cyberneticist. (AUDIO: The Inheritance)
Valarie attended very few parties and those that she did attend were organised by the Fulcrum Corporation, having the same piped music and branded presents. She and her mother both dreamt of livelier parties. (AUDIO: The House of Masks) They hosted dinners with Daniel and Simone Simpson, who were friends of theirs. (AUDIO: The Inheritance)
Meeting the Doctor
Whilst spending time with her mother and Daniel and Simone Simpson, Valarie met the Eleventh Doctor as he homed in on her plasma cutter whilst trying to disarm a bomb. Arabella Hendricks tasked her with assisting him in finding a cure for the Darinthian Blight, which went on to kill Dan, Simone and Patricia. Valarie and the Doctor learnt that Hendricks was responsible and thwarted her, with Valarie saving the rig from being destroyed by her bombs.
The Doctor took Valarie to the hospital and left her a note assuring her that he would be back in ten minutes. She recovered from her wounds, arranged her mother's funeral and began the grieving process, during which she gave away everything that her mother had bought during the "Buy to Live" scheme. After two weeks, the Doctor returned and gave her the chance to join him in his search for Clara Oswald, an offer which she enthusiastically accepted. (AUDIO: The Inheritance)
Travels in the TARDIS
Valarie answered the TARDIS telephone to a stranger asking for help, after which the ship was hijacked (AUDIO: The Inheritance) and took her and the Doctor to what seemed to be Venice. (AUDIO: The House of Masks)
In the TARDIS, Valarie asked about the extent of the ship's capabilities and learnt of the Doctor's marriages to Elizabeth I and a woman who killed him, as well as the fact that Queen Victoria wanted him dead. She assured the Doctor that she was ready for the dangers of the universe. (WC: The Eleventh Doctor Returns)
