During [[the Valeyard's trial|his trial]], [[the Valeyard]] suggested that [[Rassilon]] was motivated to delibrately introduce a [[regeneration cycle|limit of twelve regenerations]] among the [[Time Lord]]s since he recognised that a Time Lord who could regenerate without limit could potentially outlive both Gallifrey and the [[Laws of Time]], refusing to permit any other Time Lord to ever become [[immortal]] and potentially become greater than him. He went on to claim that he was created as a result of experiments which were performed by the [[Hermit (Trial of the Valeyard)|thirteenth and final incarnation of the Doctor]] in an attempt to break this limit, though the [[Sixth Doctor]] found his claims dubious; indeed, he found what appeared to be his final incarnation on [[Etarho]] to be the Valeyard in [[disguise]].
