== History == | |||
The TSS had directed beam weapons and was controlled by a direct link with the operator's brain. It was also capable of functioning autonomously with a simple program — such as "Return to base", for example. The expedition to [[Deva Loka]] was outfitted with one TSS. | |||
The machine had been used previously by two members of the expedition named [[Stone (Kinda)|Stone]] and [[Carter (Kinda)|Carter]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Kinda (novelisation)|Kinda]]'') to explore the area, but both disappeared without trace. Another called [[Roberts (Kinda)|Roberts]] had also recently been in the TSS, but had also gone missing; the machine was empty when first discovered by the [[Fifth Doctor]] and [[Adric]]. When Adric impulsively shut the TSS's door, the machine activated and marched him and the Doctor to the expedition's domed base. | The machine had been used previously by two members of the expedition named [[Stone (Kinda)|Stone]] and [[Carter (Kinda)|Carter]] ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Kinda (novelisation)|Kinda]]'') to explore the area, but both disappeared without trace.
