Sharon Davies

Sharon was the name of the Fourth Doctors first new traveling companion (and first black companion), to be depicted in the Fourth Doctor Comic Strip Stories as featured in Doctor Who Weekly.

Little is known of Sharon's background.

Her best friend on Earth was schoolmate `Fudge` Higgins.

She attended school in Blackcastle, a steel mining town in the North of England where she first met the Doctor when the escaped Meep, the Beep crashed his spacecraft. For some time she was held under the influence of the Star Beast's black light during which time she acted under the Meep's orders and tried to kill the Doctor. Taken into a black hole, along with the steel works, she accepted the invitation to travel with the Doctor, after he had returned everyone else home.

Travels with the Doctor took her onboard the 'Space-hog' an astrofighter in the New Earth System, which was attacked by the Wereloks and their masters the Daleks

Sharon experienced a retinal implant viddy machine education (on Galactic Crime-Fighting not advanced high school physics as the Doctor intended,) while onboard the TARDIS. A new more mature hair style was nothing compared to suddenly aging four years when the TARDIS left Brimo the Time Witch's domain.

Her adventures continued to China, Earth in 1522AD where stranded Sontarans were using Shaolin Monks to fight and retrieve crystals necessary to send a distress signal (see Dragon's Claw).

As the Doctor succeeded in returning Sharon home the Doctor, K-9, Sharon and the TARDIS were caught by a teleport-beam operated by the Collector where they were treated as samples by the Ship, collecting samples of lifeforms throughout the Universe.

Her next journey saw her revisiting old friends of the Doctor on Unicepter IV, where she struck up a relationship with Vernor Allen, a professional dreamer who used a Slinth called Miki. When the Slinth were drained and no longer used for dreaming, Sharon decided to start a new life together with Vernor, having felt it impossible to return to Blackcastle since she grew up (see Dreamers of Death).
