Fortune teller (Turn Left)


 * See also Little Girl for the recurring tarot card reader in Torchwood 

The Fortune Teller, on the planet Shan Shen once offered to foretell Donna Noble's future, but instead seemed more interested in manipulating her past. Her suggestion that Donna should turn away from her fateful first day at H.C. Clements forced Donna's past to change, and created a parallel world in which the Doctor was killed during his encounter with the Empress of the Racnoss (DW: Turn Left).

Her fate is unknown; she fled after Donna (with the aid of Rose Tyler) was able to restore the proper timeline, terrified that Donna had managed to overcome the Time Beetle.

Behind the Scenes

 * She may have been a member of the Trickster's Brigade, as she urged Donna to ponder her choices and was familiar enough with the Time Beetle's abilities that she called Donna "so strong" to have resisted it.
