The '''Kovarian Chapter''' was a faction of [[the Church]] of [[The Silence|Silence]] led by Madame [[Kovarian]], which included several [[Silent]]s. Circa the [[52nd century]], ([[TV]]: ''[[A Good Man Goes to War]]'') after the [[Siege of Trenzalore|Siege]] of [[Trenzalore]] broke out and the Church was assisting the [[Eleventh Doctor]] with protecting the planet from various hostile forces, preventing him from releasing the [[Time Lord]]s back into the universe and restarting the [[Time War]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Time of the Doctor]]'') the Kovarian Chapter decided to travel back in time and kill the Doctor, thereby ensuring that the Time Lords never returned. | The '''Kovarian Chapter''' was a faction of [[the Church]] of [[The Silence|Silence]] led by Madame [[Kovarian]], which included several [[Silent]]s.

The cult made two (seemingly separate) attempts to kill the Doctor, the first by taking control of [[the Doctor's TARDIS|his TARDIS]] and causing it to explode on [[26 June]] [[2010]]. This, however, resulted in a [[total event collapse]] that, although corrected, left the [[crack]]s in the skin of the [[universe]]. This attempt was a complete failure, causing the very problem they were attempting to avert.

The second attempt involved the Silents influencing [[human]] history for thousands of years, culminating in the creation of an astronaut suit that would be operated by [[River Song]], whom they kidnapped and raised to kill the Doctor ([[TV]]: ''[[A Good Man Goes to War]]'') at [[Lake Silencio]], [[Utah]]. Because it was a [[still point in time]], they hoped to create a [[fixed point]] for the Doctor's death. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Impossible Astronaut]]''/''[[Day of the Moon]]'') However, River refused to kill the Doctor, resulting in [[River Song's World|all of time happening at once]], before this was corrected by the Doctor faking his death with the ''[[Teselecta]],'' making this attempt another massive failure, as the Doctor learned of Trenzalore from [[Dorium Maldovar]].

The Doctor later commented that the Kovarian Chapter was caught in a "[[time loop|destiny trap]]," saying that you couldn't change [[history]] if you were part of it, since destroying the TARDIS created the crack through which the Time Lords could return, which they wanted to prevent and he never could've reached Trenzalore if he hadn't had River Song to help him so much on his adventures.
