Biography Edit

At the age of eight, the Woman was taken from her family for the selection process in the Drylands. Staring into the Untempered Schism as part of a Time Lord initiation rite, the Woman was inspired by what she saw in the Schism. (PROSE: A Brief History of Time Lords)

The Master knew the identity of the Woman. (PROSE: Lords and Masters)

The Last Great Time War Edit

During the final phases of the Last Great Time War, when the War Doctor had turned against the Time Lords, the Woman opposed Lord President Rassilon's plan to destroy time itself, (TV: The End of Time) along with the Patriarch of the House of Stillhaven. (PROSE: Lords and Masters) Rassilon condemned her and the patriarch to stand behind him in the Panopticon and cover their faces "as monuments of their shame, like the Weeping Angels of old” (TV: The End of Time) and had her name erased from time as further punishment. (PROSE: A Brief History of Time Lords)

When Rassilon and his retinue came to Earth on Boxing Day 2009, the Tenth Doctor's gaze fell on the Woman and she briefly uncovered her face and looked at him, shedding a single tear and glanced toward the White-Point Star. The Doctor then shot the diamond, severing the link in Rassilon's plan to return to reality, sending her and the other Time Lords back into the time lock with Gallifrey. As the enraged Rassilon turned to kill the Doctor, she returned to her weeping position, just before the Doctor was saved by the Master. (TV: The End of Time)

Appearing to Wilfred Edit

During the events surrounding the Master Race and the Tenth Doctor's regeneration, the Woman frequently appeared to Wilfred Mott in conventional human clothes at the same time she was on Gallifrey during the Time War. How the Woman managed to do this is unknown, but she appeared older, with her hair getting greyer, each time she appeared to Wilf.

The Woman was first seen by Wilf in a church, where she told him that the church had been a convent that was attacked by "a demon from the skies" in the 1300s, and was saved by a "sainted physician". She directed Wilfred's attention to a stained glass window that contained an image of the Doctor's TARDIS. After suggesting that the physician would appear again, she vanished.

She next appeared to Wilfred on Christmas Day, appearing on television during the Queen's Christmas speech. Only Wilf could see her. The Woman told Wilf that he needed to take up arms and that the Tenth Doctor's life could still be saved. Before vanishing again, she warned Wilf not to tell the Doctor anything she had said to him.

She once more appeared to Wilf on the Vinvocci's spaceship. She told him that this was the Doctor's final battle, and he had to take up arms. He asked her who she was, but she replied that she was lost, and vanished once more.

When Wilfred later asked the Doctor who the Woman was, the Doctor did not reply. (TV: The End of Time)
