The Fifth Doctor stated that Time Lords start off with a certain amount of artron energy saturating their bodies in each incarnation, with the energy accumulating over time; their energy count is 'reset' to a specific level after each regeneration to prevent the accumulative artron energy absorbed during their lives causing excessive damage ([[PDA]]: ''[[Empire of Death (novel)|Empire of Death]]''). | |||

To accomplish this he would lure wayward TARDISes into the "[[bubble universe]]" in which he resided to devour their energy supply. However he couldn't devour raw TARDIS energy as the deaths of the TARDIS consciousness would create a hole in the universe, so he would transfer the TARDIS mainframe into a [[human]] receptacle and devour the remaining artron energy.
