However, this was not the end for him. He gained and lost a new host body, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ultimate Treasure]]'') had a child with [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Reproductive Cycle]]'') and used his mental link with the Doctor to allow the Master to trap the Doctor within a dreamscape.

Kamelion was created from structure mathematics via [[Block Transfer Computation]]s. As such, he was able to change his appearance and form. Not only could he masquerade as various humanoids, but he could actually change his size and form at will, at various points taking such forms as a [[Gubbage Cone]] with many tendrils and a fifty-foot tall version of his standard body. He was also able to change his hands into weapons. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)|The Crystal Bucephalus]]'')

The Kamelions were created by the [[Gelsandoran]]s ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Ultimate Treasure]]'') as weapons of war during their invasion of the [[planet]] [[Xeriphas]] before leaving. Not knowing why they left, Kamelion shut down his [[consciousness]].  ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Crystal Bucephalus (novel)|The Crystal Bucephalus]]'') When {{Ainley}} became trapped on [[Xeriphas]], ([[TV]]: ''[[Time-Flight (TV story)|Time-Flight]]'') he discovered Kamelion had been left behind by previous invaders. He used the android to impersonate many beings across the cosmos, all the while causing Kamelion to develop a conscience. In his next encounter with the [[Fifth Doctor]], he was using Kamelion to impersonate [[King John]], in order to pervert history by preventing the signing of [[Magna Carta]].
