Straxus (Human Resources): Difference between revisions

The first time Straxus interfered in his own future timeline was during [[the War]], when his future self became stranded on [[Victorian era|Victorian]] Earth. The future Straxus had been sent on a mission by his superiors, accompanied by a [[Cwejen|Cwej]], but his [[Time Ring|time ring]] failed and he became stranded. Straxus needed to gain his people's attention, and thought the best way to do so was to interfere in history in an obvious way. To avoid significantly damaging causality, he didn't assassinate a public figure or start a war. Instead, he collected historical artefacts that should have been discovered in the future. He also attempted to draw another time ring to his time, and managed to attract Bernice Summerfield, but her time ring was set only to work for people matching a specific genetic pattern and he couldn't use it Straxus wasn't the only one trying to get the attention of a superior through ritual: his Cwej was committing murders themed around the number seven, hoping for notice from a "[[Seventh Doctor|Pale God]]". The Cwej's scheme resulted in Straxus's regeneration, but his interference had gotten his people's attention after all: specifically his previous self. The younger Straxus extracted, imprisoned, and interrogated his aborted future counterpart. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Adventure of the Diogenes Damsel (audio story)|The Adventure of the Diogenes Damsel]]'')
