The Multitude: Difference between revisions

'''The Multitude''', also known as '''the Collective''', ([[AUDIO]]: {{cs|Morbius (audio story)}}) was a name once used by a [[renegade]] [[Time Lord]] who suffered from [[regenerative dissonance]]. They faced at least the [[Third Doctor|Third]], [[Fourth Doctor|Fourth]], [[Fifth Doctor|Fifth]], [[Sixth Doctor|Sixth]], [[Seventh Doctor|Seventh]], [[Eighth Doctor|Eighth]] and [[Tenth Doctor]]s, as well as a [[degeneration|degenerated]] [[War Doctor]]. They also faced multiple incarnations of [[The Master|the Master]], including the [[The Master (Terror of the Autons)|UNIT Master]], the [[Decayed Master]], the [[The Master (The TV Movie)|Bruce Master]], the [[War Master]], and [[Missy]].

* Up until the story {{cs|The Box of Terrors (audio story)}} on [[23 November (releases)|23 November]] [[2023 (releases)|2023]], no name had been given in-narrative for this Time Lord in general (only for each of their [[incarnation]]s). However, [[John Dorney]], who regularly wrote stories featuring the character, has expressed a fondness for the name "the Collective".<ref>https://twitter.com/MrJohnDorney/status/1086998778186526720</ref> Later, the [[Big Finish]] website used "The Renegade" as a name on the credits tab for the audio story {{cs|Two's Company (audio story)}} to conceal the fact that it was the incarnation of the Multitude known as [[the Two]] who appeared in that story.<ref>https://www.bigfinish.com/releases/v/doctor-who-once-and-future-two-s-company-2777</ref> The name “the Collective” was also later used in-narrative in {{cs|Morbius (audio story)}}.
