Time Lord: Difference between revisions

* The Time Lords were known to execute criminals by vaporisation. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'') After [[the Imperator]] led his army of followers and mercenaries on a crusade against hundreds of cultures around the [[Spiral Politic]], he was tried and publicly executed. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Book of the War (novel)|The Book of the War]]'') One account held the Second Doctor had initially been sentenced to death for his breach of the non-interference policy, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[World Game (novel)|World Game]]'') and the Fourth Doctor was threatened with vaporisation whilst accused of assassinating the President. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Deadly Assassin (TV story)|The Deadly Assassin]]'') An attempted execution was actually carried out on the Fifth Doctor following a [[Warrant of Termination]] being issued by the High Council to prevent [[Omega]]'s return, however he was secretly moved to safety in [[the Matrix]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Arc of Infinity (TV story)|Arc of Infinity]]'') The [[Unbound Doctor]] later went through a similar scenario after being tried for existing in the wrong universe. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Gallifrey (audio story)|Gallifrey]]'')

* The Time Lords could erase a subject from existence entirely. For the countless crimes [[the Master]] committed, his punishment would have been the reversal of his time stream, such that he had never existed. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Terror of the Autons (novelisation)|Doctor Who and the Terror of the Autons]]'') A similar punishment was carried out on [[the War Lord]] for his interference in human history which led to the deaths of thousands; he (and several of his guards) were dematerialised out of existence. The [[War Lord homeworld]] had a [[force field]] placed around it. ([[TV]]: ''[[The War Games (TV story)|The War Games]]'') Similarly the [[Imperiatrix]] [[Pandora]] was executed in such a way she’d never existed. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Lies (audio story)|Lies]]'') The [[Oubliette of Eternity]] was used to erase criminals from time, though unbeknownst to the Time Lords its victims actually became [[Neverpeople]]. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[Neverland (audio story)|Neverland]]'') A similar device capable of erasing the target from existence, the [[Sword of Never]], was used by the [[Convocation of Oblivion]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Scratchman (novelisation)|Scratchman]]'')
