Biography
In 5149, After hearing that she was in search of time travel, Dorium met with River Song in the Maldovarium bar to offer her a Vortex manipulator that was, according to him, "Fresh off the wrist of a handsome Time Agent". As payment Song offered him a Callisto Pulse which could disarm Micro-explosives from up to 20 feet. When he enquired as to what kind of micro-explosives the pulse could disarm, she responded by saying the kind that she had just put in his wine. He was then forced to give her the Vortex Manipulator. (DW: The Pandorica Opens)
Dorium supplied a group of hooded figures with a Judoon's brain that contained a security protocol in exchange for payment. As his customer's left he questioned their motives as to kidnapping "the child" and told them not to make the Doctor mad. (DW: Prequel (A Good Man Goes to War))
After deciding to close the Maldovarium bar he was confronted by Madam Kovarium, Colonel Manton and 2 clerics. Soon after the Doctor came 2 recruit him. He was beheaded by a headless monk when he tried to say about him friendly to them..
Behind the scenes
- Dorium is given the additional name of Maldavar on Simon Fisher Becker's online CV.[1]
- It seems likely that this (possibly a different spelling of Maldovar) is a descriptive term for an entity belonging to the planet Maldovarium, which Dorium could be.
