==Profile==
The circumstances behind the creation of this version of [[the Master]] remain undisclosed. The Master himself was less than happy with this arrangement, saying that it was "an offer I was foolish enough to accept". He also said that he "was of aid to the Doctor after he had lost — during the events that so damaged him".


This Master retained his charm and his wit, together with his [[hypnotic]] abilities. He attempted without success to hypnotise the Doctor's latest companion [[Alison Cheney]], but was interrupted by the Doctor.
==Biography==
The circumstances behind the creation of this incarnation of [[the Master]] remain undisclosed, however, he noted that he was less than happy with this arrangement, saying that it was "an offer I was foolish enough to accept". He also said that he "was of aid to the Doctor after he had lost — during the events that so damaged him". This implies that the Doctor helped create him. His android body was limited to functioning within [[the Doctor's TARDIS]]. Therefore he could not leave it and, in effect, he had become the Doctor's [[companion]].


He is apparently, unable to leave the [[The Doctor's TARDIS]]. If this was to do with the way he was programmed, or a rule the Doctor gave him to do, is unknown. ([[WC]]: ''[[Scream of the Shalka]]'')
