User:BananaClownMan/Sandbox/Missy (The Master): Difference between revisions

After returning to his TARDIS, the Master [[regeneration|regenerated]] into his nineteenth incarnation, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Girl Power! (short story)|Girl Power!]]'') the same incarnation that had fatally wounded him. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Doctor Falls (TV story)|The Doctor Falls]]'') Now in a female body, the Master adapted her name into "the Mistress". ([[TV]]: ''[[Dark Water (TV story)|Dark Water]]'') Due to the presence of her older self during the events surrounding her regeneration, she was left unable to recall the exact specifics of it due to their timelines being out of sync ([[TV]]: ''[[The Doctor Falls (TV story)|The Doctor Falls]]'') and lost all knowledge of her previous incarnation's time on the Mondasian colony ship. ([[TV]]: ''[[World Enough and Time (TV story)|World Enough and Time]]'')  

As with her previous incarnations, the Mistress went to the [[Scoundrels Club]] to recover from the regeneration. She was ousted from the Club for being a woman, leading her to kill each member for revenge, and taking the nickname "Missy" on the suggestion of an 18th century woman named [[Saffron (Dismemberment)|Saffron]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dismemberment (short story)|Dismemberment]]'') She later managed to acquire a [[Missy's vortex manipulator|vortex manipulator]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Magician's Apprentice (TV story)|The Magician's Apprentice]]'')

Missy met her former wife, [[Lucy Saxon]], in London, who had been sent to sell three [[matrix data slice]]s to an earlier incarnation of the Master. Missy spoke to Lucy about her husband and told her that one day she would have to kill him with a gun. Lucy listened to her story about what would happen to her, and how it would all work out, though she did not tell Lucy that these events would also result in her death. Lucy agreed to the terms and gave her the three matrix slices. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Unwanted Gift of Prophecy (short story)|The Unwanted Gift of Prophecy]]'')

=== Further schemes ===

[[File:The_Abominable_Showmen_Multi-Master_story.jpg|thumb|Missy "in charge" of a band of Masters. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Abominable Showmen]]'')]]Hearing that the [[Twelfth Doctor]] and [[Clara Oswald|Clara]] had been forced to enter ''[[The Battle of the Bands Beyond the Stars]]'', Missy came up with a new plan for universal domination. Travelling through her [[time stream]], she recruited her {{Pratt|n=decaying thirteenth incarnation}}, {{Ainley|n=the Master in the stolen body of}} [[Tremas]], {{Roberts|n=the Master in the stolen body of}} [[Bruce (Doctor Who)|Bruce]] and {{Simm|n=the post-resurrection "Harold Saxon" Master}}, and formed a band to compete on the show. The group planned to use the popularity of the program to hypnotise the audiences across the galaxy. According to Missy, the five spent "decades" preparing for the performance. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Five Masters]]'')

Missy became a [[headteacher]] for the school [[Saxon Heights]] after she had done away with the previous one, Mrs [[Goss (Yes Missy)|Goss]]. She had implemented new and strange rules, such as a school uniform that was almost identical to her own clothing, and getting rid of everyone's mobile communication devices, with her excuse being that they were used too often. However, the real reason was because that she wanted to summon up a [[Daemon]] by hooking up her newly acquired devices to a transmitter. The Osgoods found this out and had [[Unified Intelligence Taskforce|UNIT]] stop her, although she managed to escape. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Yes, Missy (short story)|Yes, Missy]]'')

Missy goaded the Doctor into following her through various time periods while she stole valuable items. The Doctor was too late to stop her each time. Finally catching up with her in the [[Stone Age]], the Doctor revealed to her that he had discovered her true plan: to leave [[Cybermat]]s behind where she stole each item. Missy expressed her desire to further reveal her plan to him. The Doctor instead refused to listen and boarded the TARDIS in search of some lunch. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Dr. Twelfth (novel)|Dr. Twelfth]]'')

=== The Vault ===

After she was captured by an unnamed species on an [[Planet (Extremis)|unnamed planet]], Missy was sentenced to death. In accordance with their [[Fatality Index]], the [[Twelfth Doctor]] was chosen to carry out the sentence. However, he sabotaged the execution machine so that she was knocked unconscious instead of being killed. Swearing an oath to guard Missy's "body" for a thousand years, the Doctor scared the executioners away and had [[Nardole]] place her inside a [[Vault (The Pilot)|Quantum Fold Chamber]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Extremis (TV story)|Extremis]]'') The Doctor and Nardole transported the vault to [[St Luke's University]], where they continued to guard it for several decades. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Pilot (TV story)|The Pilot]]'')

==== Meeting her predecessor ====

To test Missy's [[good]]ness, the Doctor recruited Bill and Nardole to be her "companions" and followed a distress signal to a [[colony]] ship while the Doctor monitored Missy's progress from the TARDIS. However, Missy was ill-prepared to handle a frightened crewmember, [[Jorj]], who subsequently shot Bill; she was carried off by passengers from [[Floor 1056]]. Missy accompanied the Doctor and Nardole down to Floor 1056, where the Doctor left her in charge of gleaning information from the computers. She discovered that the colony ship originated from [[Mondas]] while being pestered by a man called "Razor", who, upon confrontation, revealed himself to be {{Simm|n=her past self}}, who Missy appeared to join forces with for the "[[Genesis of the Cybermen]]".
