Tzim-Sha: Difference between revisions

[[3407 (number)|Three thousand four hundred and seven]] years after Tzim-Sha first became trapped, in [[5425]], [[Team TARDIS]] picked up nine distress calls from Ranskoor Av Kolos and landed on the planet to investigate, meeting Paltraki whose mind had become muddled by the effects of the planet. Shortly after the Doctor gave Paltraki a neural balancer to help fix his mind, Tzim-Sha contacted Paltraki and demanded the return of the stolen planet, executing one of Paltraki's crew in front of him and threatening to brutally murder the rest if he didn't comply. The Doctor and her companions were left in shock at once again seeing their old enemy, having believed Tzim-Sha to have been sent back to his homeworld when they last met.

The Doctor, her companions and Paltraki set out to stop Tzim-Sha and his plans. The Doctor was brought in front of Tzim-Sha by Andinio where Tzim-Sha explained what had happened since they had last met and his motives. Tzim-Sha then had the Ux turn the weapon on Earth, intending to destroy the planet and the human race in retaliation for his previous defeat, ignoring the Doctor's warnings that the technology was not stable and using it on another planet could destroy everything. Tzim-Sha declared that he would target any planet that ever defied the Stenza and use his weapon on them.

As the Ux used the weapon on Earth, Tzim-Sha received a warning that [[Graham O'Brien]] and [[Ryan Sinclair]] were freeing his trophies and went to stop them personally. By the time he arrived, Graham had destroyed his army of SniperBots and the prisoners were free and on their way to Paltraki's ship. Though Graham had sworn to kill Tzim-Sha if he ever saw him again, he couldn't bring himself to pull the trigger. Instead, when Tzim-Sha threatened Ryan, Graham shot him in the foot, incapacitating him.

After the Doctor was able to return the planets that had been stolen back to their proper places in space, and Tzim-Sha's plan was thwarted, Graham and Ryan decided that Tzim-Sha wasn't worth killing, stating that he instead deserved a taste of his own medicine. Graham and Ryan sentenced him to life imprisonment in a Stenza stasis chamber, once used for Tzim-Sha's trophies. The two ordered him to keep the name of [[Grace O'Brien]] in his mind as he contemplated eternity. The Ux subsequently sealed the building so that no one could ever reach Tzim-Sha and free him from his eternal prison.
