Port Any

Port Any is a city on the only landmass on the planet of Hitchemus. The city was mainly home to artists and musicians. In the middle of the city is Lake Emerson, which joins onto Emerson Creek, which provides water for the farms which are a little way out of the city. Also near the city is the spaceport and the ruins.

Port Any is also home of the tigers. Although built in the likeness of tigers on earth, they are actually reptilian creatures, who temporarily took over the city after the Doctor (in his eighth form) used the Stela (a giant warehouse where past generations of tigers stored knowledge for later generations to learn) to find out about a second, much larger, storehouse under the city. The tigers, under the command of Big, planned to raise the storehouse until they were stopped by the Movement.

The tigers would usually live in the Bewilderness, near the Distil Lake and the Gathering Plain.

Much of the Island remains undiscovered and uncivilized as nobody dares to cross the Bewilderness to explore it.

Hitchemus and Port Any were the setting for the book "The Year of Intelligent Tigers" by Kate Orman, an original story about the eighth Doctor.
