In an [[Alternate timeline (Supremacy of the Cybermen)|alternate timeline]], a '''[[Cyber-Controller]]''' ruled an [[asteroid]] [[colony]] of [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] at the [[end of the universe]]. Following the arrival of [[Rassilon]], it kept its existence hidden from the [[Time Lord]], allowing him to believe he commanded the Cybermen in their total conquest of [[time]] and [[space]]. Eventually, it revealed itself to the [[Twelfth Doctor]] after the Cybermen attempted to harvest his [[regeneration energy|regenerative energy]], and revealed its plans to rebirth [[N-Space]] as "the [[Age of the Cyberiad]]".

This Cyber-Controller ruled a remnant force of [[Cyberman|Cybermen]] that existed at the [[end of the universe]]. When [[Rassilon]], sometime after being exiled from [[Gallifrey]] by the [[Twelfth Doctor]], landed his Bowship at the Cybermen's asteroid colony, the Cyber-Controller kept its presence unknown to Rassilon as he consulted the Cyber-Leader over his plan to make the Cybermen the dominant species across all of time and space. After Rassilon was converted into the  Cyber-President, he assisted the Cybermen in forging the [[Gallifreyan Cyber Fleet]] to invade Gallifrey, with a particular focus on the Capitol. While the Cybermen made use of Time Lord technology to gain complete dominance over the past, the Cyber-Controller allowed Rassilon to believe he was in charge until the final stages of the Cybermen's plan were ready to be enacted.

After Rassilon, the Twelfth Doctor and the General arrived at the chamber of the Eye of Harmony, the Cybermen eventually forced all three Time Lords into looms to harvest their regenerative energy. However, the Cyber-Controller then intervened with a new strategy, explaining to the Doctor that the Cybermen intended to ignite the regenerative energy inside the Eye of Harmony at the exact moment the universe would end, rebirthing N-Space into "the Age of the Cyberiad", a reality which would be dominated by an ultimate evolution of Cybermen from its very beginnings. Noting that Rassilon's regenerative energy readings were too unstable to complete the Cybermen's plan, the Cyber-Controller ordered the Doctor plugged in as a substitute, the two Time Lords eventually being upgraded.

As the universe began to rapidly collapse, the Cyber-Controller ordered the activation of the Eye of Harmony to create the Cybermen's ultimate reality. However, the stored regenerative energy began flowing backwards. It was then that the Doctor and Rassilon revealed that, despite their conversions, they had retained their consciousnesses and had altered the Eye of Harmony's protocols from within the Cyberiad. With regenerative energy flowing throughout the Cyberiad - which now spanned the whole of history - the Cybermen's conquest of time and space was reversed. The Cyber-Controller, who was directly exposed to the Eye of Harmony, overloaded and exploded. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)|Supremacy of the Cybermen]]'')

The Cyber-Controller, who was directly exposed to the Eye of Harmony, was engulfed in regenerative energy as it screamed in despair, shortly before the timeline reset.

== Appearance ==
This Cyber-Controller, like the previous Cyber-Controllers, lacked head handles. His brain was shown in transparent "window" on his helmet. The Cyber-Controller has an advanced body like the lesser Cybermen. He had glowing blue eyes. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)|Supremacy of the Cybermen]]'')
Unlike its subordinate [[Cyberman|Cybermen]], this Cyber-Controller did not resemble the Cybermen that evolved from the [[Cyber Legion]]s and formed the [[Cyberiad]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Ghost in the Machine (short story)|Ghost in the Machine]]'', [[TV]]: ''[[Nightmare in Silver (TV story)|Nightmare in Silver]]'') although, like most Cyber-Controllers, its [[brain]] was visible through a [[glass]] covering on its [[Cyber-helmet|helmet]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)|Supremacy of the Cybermen]]'') The Cyber-Controller, in a similar vein to the [[Cyber-Controller (The Tomb of the Cybermen)|Cyber-Controller]] on [[Telos]] in the [[25th century]] of the original timeline, ([[TV]]: ''[[The Tomb of the Cybermen (TV story)|The Tomb of the Cybermen]]'') lacked [[side handle]]s on its helmet (possessing a pair of large blank, [[metal]] [[panel]]s where a [[human]]'s [[ear]]s would normally be), a [[chest unit]], or any other kind of external bodily components or mechanisms, aside from a thin, vertical oval-shaped [[electricity|electric]] [[white]] [[light]] on its [[chest]]. Its [[body]] was also significantly more [[muscle|muscular]] than most Cybermen, although not as much as the Cybermen of the [[Cyber-Earth]] in this timeline. The Cyber-Controller's [[face]] featured bright, white [[eye]]s with [[blue]] highlights, and lacked the "[[tear]]-drop" on the corners that were commonly seen on other Cybermen. It also had a straight, simplistic metal slit for a [[mouth]].
 
Notably, this Cyber-Controller's appearance was nearly identical in appearance to the ultimate Cyberman evolution that it envisioned the Cybermen achieving upon creating the "[[Age of the Cyberiad]]". However, this Cyberman design lacked the Cyber-Controller's chest light, brain case, or even a traditional Cyber-helmet with side handles; its face also lacked a "mouth" of sorts.
