List of incarnations of the Doctor

The following is a list of incarnations and manifestations of the Doctor. While the Doctor's species was contentious among accounts, with the possibility that the Doctor was human, (TV: The Evil of the Daleks, PROSE: Doctor Who and the Daleks, The Monsters from Earth) a Time Lord, (TV: The War Games, The Time Warrior, et al.) a hybrid, (TV: Doctor Who, et al.) or something else entirely, the Doctor was consistently shown to be capable of regeneration, even among conflicting reports of how that process worked. As such, the Doctor had numerous incarnations over their lifetime, but the exact order and number was as contradictory as the Doctor's species itself.
