Victim
While considering killing Kahler-Jex, the Eleventh Doctor claimed to honour the victims first. (TV: A Town Called Mercy)
His, the Master's, the Daleks', all the people who died because of my mercy!
The Ninth Doctor rejected Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen's sparing of Cathy Salt as evidence that she had changed. (TV: Boom Town)
You let one of them go, but that's nothing new. Every now and then, a little victim's spared because she smiled, because he's got freckles, because they begged. And that's how you live with yourself. That's how you slaughter millions. Because once in a while, on a whim, if the wind's in the right direction, you happen to be kind.
Historians who had been allowed access to the "Monster Vaults" of the databanks in the Doctor's TARDIS observed that the heads of the Abzorbaloffs' absorbed victims remained alive and conscious within the Abzorbaloff's digestive tract and only when it had completely drained their brains were the heads fully assimilated into its "fleshy corpulence". (PROSE: The Monster Vault)
After the Abzorbaloff known as "Victor Kennedy dissolved, the Tenth Doctor used his sonic screwdriver to key into the absorption matrix and separate Ursula Blake, the Abzorbaloff's last victim, from his remains. Though, as the Doctor noted, it was too late for total reconstruction, Ursula was salvaged as a face embedded in a slab of concrete. (TV: Love & Monsters)
