Time Lords and the Time War
- During the Time War, three Time Lords trying to escape the time lock created the Vector Key, a means of allowing time travel that uses empathic circuits to form a psychic bond, allowing three or more people to travel in time and space. The Vector Key escaped the Time War and crashed on Earth without its operators.
Notes
- The opening premise of this adventure - a coastal village beset by storms - is not dissimilar to that of the very first Doctor Who Roleplaying Game adventure, Arrowdown.
- As with other stories included in rulebook releases, no specific writer is credited for this story.
- Promotional photos and screencaps used to illustrate moments from this adventure include In the Forest of the Night, Listen, The Caretaker, and Mummy on the Orient Express.
