Artron energy: Difference between revisions

[[File:Blueberry Flavour.jpg|right|thumb|[[Clyde Langer|Clyde]] and the [[Eleventh Doctor]] "body swap" by tapping into artron energy. ([[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor]]'')]]

 

Visually, artron energy resembled a sort of blue electricity. Artron energy seemed to have an odour detectable by some species, such as the [[Groske]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor]]'') It was measured in [[atto-Omega]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Taking of Planet 5]]'')

Nearby artron energy could be drained through use of an [[artron inhibitor]]. This would also prevent [[Time Lord]]s from [[Regeneration|regenerating]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Banquo Legacy]]'')

Artron energy was apparently used as a source of energy to power all [[TARDIS]]es and [[Time Scaphe]]s, with "raw" artron energy flowing from the [[Eye of Harmony]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cat's Cradle: Witch Mark]]'') The [[Fifth Doctor]] once claimed to [[Monarch (Four to Doomsday)|Monarch]] that artron energy had a relationship to the functioning of [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] (or vice versa), although he did not elaborate. ([[TV]]: ''[[Four to Doomsday]]'')

Artron energy was rich and refined in TARDISes, ([[TV]]:'' [[The Doctor's Wife]]'') vital in the running of the ships; it could run low ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Option Lock]]'') and when down to 10% it would mean even backup power was unavailable. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Banquo Legacy]]'') Materialisation caused a massive displacement of artron energy ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Highest Science]]'') which would help the scanners. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Housewarming]]'')

Within the TARDIS' generator room was an [[Artron Energy Capacitor]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Algebra of Ice]]'')

The [[Panjistri]] used artron energy to power their [[Teleportation|matter transporter]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Timewyrm: Apocalypse]]'')

Artron energy was at low levels in [[human]]s but could be present at elevated levels in others. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Banquo Legacy]]'')

Coupling the human mind to a source of high-voltage [[electricity]] could result in a massive release of artron energy. The [[Eighth Doctor]] once compared the relationship between Artron and normal energy to the movement in the depths of the sea and the waves on the surface. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Banquo Legacy]]'')

Even touching a TARDIS could cause the passage of artron energy. [[Clyde Langer]] absorbed some artron energy from the outside of the TARDIS as he was trying to enter it while it was trapped in a [[time loop]] made by [[the Trickster]]. He then used the energy to attack the Trickster, as he was time-sensitive. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Wedding of Sarah Jane Smith]]'') The [[Eleventh Doctor]] later keyed into Clyde's residual artron energy in order to make a biological swap. ([[TV]]: ''[[Death of the Doctor]]'')

Time Lord minds had a supply of artron energy, harmlessly siphoned off and fed into the birthing bays of [[the TARDIS]]es. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Fractures (audio story)|Fractures]]'') A surge of artron energy could restore the synapses, curing [[amnesia]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Gallifrey Chronicles (novel)|The Gallifrey Chronicles]]'') Without artron energy, a Time Lord was unable to regenerate. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Banquo Legacy (novel)|The Banquo Legacy]]'', [[AUDIO]]: ''[[Repeat Offender (audio story)|Repeat Offender]]'')

[[Engin]] noted the [[Fourth Doctor]] must have had great reserves of artron energy to survive near-fatal attacks on his person while in [[the Matrix]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin]]'')

According to {{Ainley}}, the [[Cheetah World]] had high levels of artron energy in its magnetosphere, which the [[Seventh Doctor]] concluded was how it transformed those on the planet into [[Cheetah People]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[First Frontier]]'')

The planet [[Kirith]], one of the few remaining planets in the [[far future]], had high levels of artron energy in its atmosphere. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Timewyrm: Apocalypse]]'')

When the TARDIS' [[Banshee Circuits]] were activated, it used the mental artron energy of the [[Time Scaphe]] crew to reconfigure itself into [[SARDIT|a multi-dimensional city]] reminiscent of those of ancient [[Gallifrey]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Cat's Cradle: Time's Crucible]]'')

The entity known as [[House (The Doctor's Wife)|House]] fed on artron energy, the best and most refined source being TARDISes (The [[Eleventh Doctor]] compared it to preferring fish fingers over raw fish). 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. ([[TV]]:'' [[The Doctor's Wife]]'')

The [[Khameirian]] [[Essence Chamber]] could drain artron energy from a TARDIS and use it power itself. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Option Lock]]'')

The [[Third Doctor]] had an artron energy detector. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Eye of the Giant]]'')

[[K9 Mark III]] was capable of detecting artron energy. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Interference - Book One]]'')

[[UNIT]] could detect artron energy by the early 21st century; [[The Doctor's TARDIS|the TARDIS]]' arrival in the home of [[Amy Pond]] and [[Rory Williams]] prompted troops to storm the house. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Power of Three]])''
