Based on the similarities between [[Mal'akh]] regenerative ability and that of Gallifreyans and [[Time Lord]]s, [[Richard Francis Burton]] hypothesized that early Gallifreyans deliberately infected themselves with the [[Yssgaroth]] taint to give themselves a biological advantage.

[[Time Lord]]s occasionally displayed, or referred to, the ability to [[flying|fly]]. Due to his coordinates having "slipped", the [[Time Lord messenger]] who warned the [[Third Doctor]] of {{Delgado}}'s presence on [[Earth]] materialized hovering in the air, an error he soon corrected. ([[TV]]: ''[[Terror of the Autons (TV story)|Terror of the Autons]]'') [[The Doctor]] learned to fly in their [[Second Doctor|second incarnation]] from the book ''[[Levitation Universal Edition]]'', and gleefully used this newfound ability in the course of his regular activities for some time after discovering the "talent" he had for it. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Levitation (comic story)|Levitation]]'') However, later incarnations of the Doctor were not so keen to fly; the [[Fourth Doctor]] and [[Romana II]] briefly considered flying to get to the top of the Tower, though they eventually took the [[lift]]s up the [[Eiffel Tower]] because flying would have been too conspicuous. ([[TV]]: ''[[City of Death (TV story)|City of Death]]'') As part of a scheme to be carried out by both himself and the [[Fourth Doctor]], [[Drax]] told the Doctor he could "fly over there and shut the [[door]]", although this plan was not carried out.

Like humans, Time Lords were capable of having [[allergy|allergic reactions]] to specific substances. The [[Fifth Doctor]] stated that he was allergic to certain [[praxis gas|gases]] in the [[Praxis]] series, and that he could eat the [[celery]] stalk on his left lapel in order to counteract the reaction. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Caves of Androzani (TV story)|The Caves of Androzani]]'') [[Rosemary]] could also make the Fifth Doctor [[sneeze]] when he tasted it in his drink, ([[TV]]: ''[[Castrovalva (TV story)|Castrovalva]]'') and he speculated that he was allergic to something in the air when he sneezed while visiting Suffolk in [[1911]].
