At some point prior to the First Doctor leaving [[Gallifrey]], he and Magnus were good [[friend]]s. However, one day, Magnus attempted to drain power from a conglomerate of [[Artron energy]] retrieved from the [[Time Vortex]]. The Doctor realised the "ball of energy" was actually a sentient energy being and stopped Magnus; while the Doctor was commended for his actions, Magnus, who wished for the experiment to bring him fame equal to [[Omega]] and [[Rassilon]], never forgave the Doctor for ruining his plans that day, becoming a bitter enemy of his.

[[Ruath]] later cited "that idiot, Magnus" alongside [[The Doctor|the Doctor]], [[The Rani|the Rani]], and [[The Monk|Mortimus]] as the group of students under [[Borusa]] who had become "scoundrels"; ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Goth Opera (novel)|Goth Opera]]'') with Mortimus being [[the Monk]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[No Future (novel)|No Future]]'') this list placed [[the Master]], notoriously the Doctor's schoolmate, as the Renegade formerly known as Magnus.

However, a later account claimed that the "[[Magnus]]" who attended the Academy with the Doctor was a distinct Time Lord from "[[Koschei]]", the one who became [[the Master]]. According to this account, it was also this Magnus who later regenerated into [[the War Chief]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Divided Loyalties (novel)|Divided Loyalties]]'') contradicting other accounts' contention of the War Chief as another incarnation of the Master.
