Commander (The Sensorites)
The Commander was the leader of an exploration mission from the Earth Empire in the 28th century.
Biography[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Commander made contact with the Sensorites, discovered that the Sense Sphere was rich in molybdenum and attempted to exploit its mineral wealth. Shortly afterwards, two of his crew deserted them in the spaceship, which the Commander destroyed. The surviving three crew members hid in the caves outside the Sensorites' city. They began adding atropine to their water supply in the hopes of killing them all and claiming the planet for themselves. Their scheme was discovered by the First Doctor and they were taken into custody by Maitland's crew. (TV: The Sensorites)

The years that the Commander spent living on the Sense Sphere left him with long hair and a long beard. His face was grey and stretched and he had a gleam of madness in his eyes. (PROSE: The Sensorites)
