Explanation[[edit] | [edit source]]

The following is a list of incarnations and manifestations of the Doctor.

For completion and usefulness' sake, incarnations of the Doctor, valid or invalid, are gathered here. Additionally, individuals intended to be incarnations of the Doctor, but which lacked the license, are also included. These should be underlined. All incarnations in Category:Incarnations of the Doctor should be here, but it is not garenteed. Additionally, most in Category:Non-DWU Doctors should be as well. Entries should be written in the form: (incarnation name, pipeswitched appropriately) brief description/explanation (first mention/appearance , first proper appearance). Portrayed by (or "based on appearance of) actor To clarify, "proper appearance" means the one intuitively recognised by casual readers. So Ninth Doctor is dabbed with "Rose" as his first proper appearance, and "The Tomorrow Windows" as his very first appearance.


While the Doctor's species was contentious among stories, as the Doctor was depicted as a human in TV: The Evil of the Daleks, PROSE: Doctor Who and the Daleks, and The Monsters from Earth, among other stories, a Time Lord in stories such as TV: The War Games, The Time Warrior, etc, a hybrid, a contentious addition from TV: Doctor Who, or something else entirely, the Doctor was consistently shown to be capable of regeneration, even among conflicting reports of how that process worked. As such, the Doctor had numerous incarnations over their lifetime, but the exact order and number was as contradictory as the Doctor's species itself.

Before the First Doctor[[edit] | [edit source]]

According to many accounts, there existed many incarnations of the Doctor prior to his so called "first" - while plentiful, they were also contradictory.

Some incarnations of the Doctor have connections to other incarnations which contradict each other.

Other incarnations[[edit] | [edit source]]
