(This is not speculation, please read the actual story before making such statements. It is clearly stated that the Master regenerated one more time than twelve — hence, into a fourteenth incarnation. And *your* edit to the lead is speculative.) |

*This story was the first to suggest that {{Pratt|n= the "decayed" Master}} as seen in [[TV]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'' was not the Master's last incarnation | *This story was the first to suggest that {{Pratt|n= the "decayed" Master}} as seen in [[TV]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'' was not simply the result of the Master's last incarnation having hanged on to a thread of life despite injury or extremely old age, but rather the result of the Master's thirteenth incarnation attempting one more regeneration despite being at the end of his [[regeneration cycle]] — resulting in "his face falling off". This idea would later be picked up on by [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Doctor vs the Master (short story)|The Doctor vs the Master]]''. | ||
*{{Gomez}} is shown to only remember {{Ainley|n= the Ainley incarnation of the Master}}'s contact with the [[Cheetah virus]] very vaguely. This is an apparent reference to the variety of conflicting accounts of how the Master's struggle with the virus played out after the events of ''[[Survival (TV story)|Survival]]''. | *{{Gomez}} is shown to only remember {{Ainley|n= the Ainley incarnation of the Master}}'s contact with the [[Cheetah virus]] very vaguely.
