During the early hours of his life, the Eighth Doctor remarked that he was half-human on [[the Doctor's mother|his mother]]'s side, ([[TV]]: ''[[Doctor Who (TV story)|Doctor Who]]'') a statement he would affirm several more times, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Alien Bodies (novel)|Alien Bodies]]'', ''[[The Infinity Doctors (novel)|The Infinity Doctors]]'', ''[[Unnatural History (novel)|Unnatural History]]'', ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'', ''[[Grimm Reality (novel)|Grimm Reality]]''; [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Fallen (comic story)|The Fallen]]'') and reaffirmed by the [[Bruce Master]] when he saw the Doctor's [[retinal structure]].

Since his past was being rewritten simultaneously by the [[Faction Paradox]], the [[Matrix Rassilon]], [[the Enemy]], ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Unnatural History (novel)|Unnatural History]]'') he had memories of both being [[loom]]ed and having parents. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Shadows of Avalon (novel)|The Shadows of Avalon]]'', ''[[Autumn Mist (novel)|Autumn Mist]]'') Patriarchal psychic river jellyfish-like creatures on the planet [[Hyspero]] once told him that he only thought he had a human mother, having actually been [[loom]]ed in reality. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Scarlet Empress (novel)|The Scarlet Empress]]'') Later, it was suggested the Doctor subconsciously made himself half-human in order to better experience life and reject the Seventh Doctor's role as [[Time's Champion]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Blue Angel (novel)|The Blue Angel]]'') Changes made to his biodata such as this would have rewritten his history ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Unnatural History (novel)|Unnatural History]]'') [[Flavia]] mentioned the Eighth Doctor's heritage from "his mother's side" in her book ''Tales from the Matrix - True Stories from TARDIS Logs Retold for Time Tots. ''([[PROSE]]'': [[Apocrypha Bipedium (short story)|Apocrypha Bipedium]]'') | |||
According to one source, however, the Eighth Doctor had been made to believe he was half-human due to his previous incarnation using a [[Chameleon Arch]] for a plan to trick the Master. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Forgotten (comic story)|The Forgotten]]'') | |||
