According to the book, the Master could control the form of his incarnations, and frequently used the same face. In a constant, [[beard]]ed [[aristocrat]] form, the Master worked as a [[researcher]] on [[Gallifrey]] until his fifth incarnation attempted to lead a [[rebellion]] on Gallifrey, with [[the War Chief]] among his followers, which ended in failure and forced the now [[renegade Time Lord|renegade]] to regenerate into an "average" clean-shaven form, becoming known as [[First Monk|the Monk]] in his sixth and seventh incarnations. When the Master's activities as the Monk became known, he chose a new [[disguise]] when a crisis triggered his next regeneration, assuming {{Delgado|n=a bearded appearance similar but distinct to his initial form}}. The appearance by which he would become best known, the Master was a dark, strikingly handsome and apparently middle-aged man, whilst in reality he was [[The Master's age|over 800 years old]]. He had an average height and build with distinguishing features including a "[[satan]]ic" [[beard]] and piercing [[grey]] [[eye]]s whilst he was generally dressed in a [[black]] [[tunic]] with [[glove]]s.

In [[2023 (releases)|2023]], a fan-made infographic of the Master's incarnations which identified the War Chief as the "Eleventh Master" was retweeted by the official [[Big Finish Productions]] Twitter account, who compared the character profiles to "new [[Weetabix]] cards".<ref>{{cite web
