| [[File:The Doctor and the Corsair.jpg|thumb|The Corsair embraces the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] after deducing her identity. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Old Friends (comic story)|Old Friends]]'')]] | | [[The Corsair (Old Friends)|An incarnation of the Corsair]] met the [[Thirteenth Doctor]] and her [[Team TARDIS|Fam]] on at least two occasions. [[COMIC]]: ''[[Old Friends (comic story)|Old Friends]]'', ''[[Alternating Current (comic story)|Alternating Current]]'') |
| One incarnation of the Corsair was a dark-haired woman who wore pirate clothing and was proficient at sword fighting. Her Ouroboros tattoo was located on her left wrist. She stole the [[Gem of Niag]] from the [[Devivian]]s to return it to the people of [[Pppppppppppplun]] on the behalf of a third party who put out a Want Ad for her services, in actuality the [[Hoarder]]. She intentionally allowed the organ scan to detect her as an alien, in hopes of luring the Doctor. The [[Thirteenth Doctor]] was arrested instead of the Corsair because she had a similar [[binary vascular system]] and, along with her companions [[Graham O'Brien|Graham]], [[Yasmin Khan|Yaz]], and [[Ryan Sinclair|Ryan]], tracked down the Corsair to a pub on another planet with [[The Corsair's TARDIS|her TARDIS]].

| At first, the Corsair didn't recognise the Doctor because of her new incarnation, and when the Doctor reminded the Corsair about one of their last encounters which saw them waking up drunk in a bank vault, the Corsair remarked that didn't narrow it down for her. After recognising the Doctor from her destroying the killgun of an alien, holding another at gunpoint, and fighting through a pub brawl with a sword, the Corsair explained her actions to the Doctor over tea, complimenting the Doctor's more heroic behavior as something she was aspiring to. She then confessed that she needed the Doctor's help with a heist of sorts. After taking time to think over it, the Doctor agreed and asked about the job. The Corsair briefed them, the team infiltrated [[Raddplina]] to rescue a [[star whale]]. Once the whale was placed in a [[stellar net]] attached to [[the Doctor's TARDIS]], the Corsair insisted they left to escape guards, leaving the Doctor’s friends behind. They took the whale to the Hoarder, who revealed his true intent as a collector and had them inprisoned. The Corsair and the Doctor had a proper talk whilst in a cage, which the Doctor then revealed they could easily escape from using her sonic screwdriver. They returned to her TARDIS, with the Corsair taking care of some of Hoarder’s drones herself, and rescued the Doctor’s friends. The Doctor then contacted the [[Time Agency]] to arrest the Hoarder and free the whale, though the Corsair insisted her name was kept out of it as the Agency knew all about her. With the whale freed, the Doctor took the Corsair back to her TARDIS, advising her to find some friends to travel with. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Old Friends (comic story)|Old Friends]]'')

| The Corsair later reunited with Graham, Ryan and Yaz in [[2020]] whilst the Doctor had left them briefly to fix a problem in her timeline. She greeted the Doctor upon her return. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Alternating Current (comic story)|Alternating Current]]'')

| Another incarnation of the Corsair was a dark-skinned woman with scarlet hair. She travelled with a [[Parrot (One Virtue, and a Thousand Crimes)|Parrot]] as her companion. She wore a viridian green coat, with tan leather and dark cherry coloured clothes which were patched and bartered. She also wore a tricorn hat with hyacinth blue plumes that were donated by her Parrot companion after a moult. As a favour for the Doctor, she travelled to the [[City Obsidian]] in the [[Imperial Edifice of Infinite Steps]] to steal the [[Hand of Omega]]. Although pursued by troop ships belonging to the [[Supreme Leader (One Virtue, and a Thousand Crimes)|Supreme Leader]], she escaped with the Hand of Omega and managed to deliver it to the [[First Doctor]] prior to him leaving [[Gallifrey]] as instructed. However, her Parrot companion did leave a single blue feather behind, which was discovered by the Supreme Leader.
