No. THhe Silence did make her a Time Lord. Being convived in the TARDIS made it ppossiblee for Melody to be made into a Time Lord, but she still would have been born a human if Kovarian hadn't experimented on Amy while she was prengant. They make that very clear in the scene where they realize that Melody has time lord DNA. How much training could you posssibly need to be lockd up in a space suit that is completely controlling your body to shoot an unarmed person who isn't even trying o fight back?[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] <sup>[[User talk:Icecreamdif|talk to me]]</sup> 06:09, November 5, 2011 (UTC) | No. THhe Silence did make her a Time Lord.

That wasn't all they trained her for, as is made explicitly clear in ''Let's Kill Hitler''. "My own bespoke psychopath," as the Doctor said. They trained/conditioned Melody to do much more than just occupy a spacesuit. They conditioned her to seek out the Doctor and to attempt to kill him and they trained her in a variety of skills she'd need to do that. That's why she attempted to kill him in ''Let's Kill Hitler'' and why she would have succeeded if she'd not used her remaining regenerations to overcome the effects of the poison. I admit that most of what they did seems unnecessary -- but they did do it. | |||
As for making her a Time Lord, it isn't made clear in that scene. What's made clear is that Melody must have been conceived in the TARDIS while travelling through the vortex and that the Silence worked hard to build on the "one hell of a start" that that gave them. It's never said or hinted to what extent River's Time Lord abilities were the result of their work and how much were directly the result of the circumstances of her conception. All we know is that both were factors. --[[Special:Contributions/89.240.254.82|89.240.254.82]] 07:14, November 5, 2011 (UTC) | |||
