Dexeter

Dexeter was the chief scientist of the Alzarians.

Biography
He based his facility inside the Starliner. He was facinated as to the nature of the Marshmen that made the Alzarians fear them. When a Marshchild was captured within the starliner it was taken to Dexeter who began examining it.

Dexeter took tissue samples for which the Doctor berated him. However he did not listen and after permission from the deciders began a full examination. However as he about to make the first incision to the Marshchild's head it awoke through a telepathic link to Romana.

The Marshchild then strangled Dexeter to death. The Doctor used tissue samples from Dexeter while comparing Alzarian, Marshman and Alzarian spider cell structure. This revealed they were all the same. (DW: Full Circle)
