Biography
When the eighth incarnation of the Doctor looked into the Tomorrow Windows, he saw this incarnation as a possible ninth incarnation, as well as another possible ninth incarnaton and the his actual ninth incarnation. (EDA: The Tomorrow Windows)

This incarnation met the Master on the planet Tersurus, after the Master asked him to, and announced his retirement from universe saving. He wished to settle down in domestic bliss with his companion Emma. He confronted the Master's various traps. Each Time Lord had travelled back in time to bribe the castle architect to plant various traps in the Master's case and negate the traps in the Doctor's. The Doctor was captured by the Daleks, whom the Master had recruited as allies after a trap the Doctor had modified resulted in the Master being trapped in the sewers of Tersurus for nine hundred years. The Doctor warned the Master about the creatures' plans to exterminate him once his usefulness was at an end using smells in the language of Tersuran.

When the Doctor's attempt to communicate with the Master was discovered, he was shot by a Dalek energy beam and regenerated into his next incarnation. (DW: The Curse of Fatal Death)
