Theory:Timeline - Celestial Toymaker

This page attempts to list the appearances of the Celestial Toymaker in the order in which he experienced them.

Limiting factors
The Toymaker's timeline does not necessarily derive from the order of the Doctor's encounters with him. His lives are akin to "incarnations," which he changes depending on how bored he gets of them, although presumably he does not switch between appearances.

So, for the sake of argument, there is the "Michael Gough" incarnation and the "David Bailie" incarnation. This is further established by evidence such as the use of Gough's appearance in Endgame.

Timeline

 * PROSE: Divided Loyalties (flashback)
 * The Toymaker first encounters the Doctor.


 * TV: The Celestial Toymaker
 * COMIC: The Greatest Gamble
 * The Toymaker collects Gaylord Lefevre, who appears in Divided Loyalties.
 * PROSE: Divided Loyalties
 * Divided Loyalties leads directly into The Nightmare Fair.

Now the timeline diverges because of adaptation:

1
 * PROSE: The Nightmare Fair (Gough's likeness)
 * The Toymaker is now calling himself the Mandarin.


 * PROSE: Games
 * The Mandarin plays Fenric.

2
 * AUDIO: The Nightmare Fair (Bailie's portrayal)
 * AUDIO: Solitaire
 * The Toymaker is presumably "killed" and (unseen) reforms.

Unplaced

 * PROSE: The Quantum Archangel (flashback)
 * The Toymaker helps to imprison Kronos the Chronovore.


 * COMIC: Endgame
 * AUDIO: The Magic Mousetrap
