Like all [[Time Lord]]s, the Corsair was taken from their family at the age of eight, for the selection process in the [[Drylands]]. Staring into the [[Untempered Schism]] as part of a Time Lord initiation rite, the Corsair reacted by running away from what they saw in the Schism.

At some point in their lives, the Corsair left [[Gallifrey]] in [[The Corsair's TARDIS|their Type 60 TARDIS]] to travel the universe. They named the TARDIS Esperanza. Each one of the Corsair's incarnations had the symbol of the [[Ouroboros]] [[tattoo]]ed somewhere on their body. It changed size each time with each different [[regeneration]]. Without it, they did not feel themselves. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Doctor's Wife (TV story)|The Doctor's Wife]]'')

At least one of the Corsair's incarnations was female. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Keeping up with the Joneses (short story)|Keeping up with the Joneses]]'') The [[Fourth Doctor]] once said to [[Romana II]] that he should meet up with the Corsair sometime, referring to the Corsair as both a man and woman when he did so.

Another incarnation of the Corsair was a dark-skinned woman with scarlet hair. She travelled with a 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 [[Thirteenth Doctor]], she travelled to the City Obsidian in the Imperial Edifice of Infinite Steps, where she planned to steal the [[Hand of Omega]]. Although pursued by troop ships belonging to the Supreme Leader, she escaped with the Hand of Omega and managed to deliver it to the [[First Doctor]]. However, her Parrot companion did leave a single blue feather behind, which was discovered by the Supreme Leader.
