Howling:The master gone

I was wondering about the master. Now the master went back into hell with the time lords. His body was already dying he probably used up the last of his energy so he is gone dead forever right. Well we know that isn't true he is going to come back sooner or later but in what way. Some people think it is the master causing the cracks I personally don't as it probably would be too soon, after the end of time. Still though the master will be back obviously, but the question is will it be John Simm. Steven Moffat does not want any RTD characters in his doctor who I am not sure if the harold saxon master counts as that. Obviously RTD didn't create the master but he did create that incarnation of the master. Moffat might want a new master though to be fair anthony ainley ran through the last four doctors, and including the five doctors he met the first seven. As much as I liked the john simm master, as he brought a real Joker type quality to the part, I think if Moffat does bring back the Master he should maybe do a more restrained master. The really crazy master has been done alot of times, John Simm Eric Roberts and Anthony Ainley. Roger Delgado I thought was quite restrained, I know he did do some mad things like karate chopping the guy off of the building in terror of the autons but he was more of a mastermind more gentelmanly only going mad if something went wrong. They have done the whole him being a savage animal alot like in Logopolis where he guns down innocent people for no reason, John simm eating people in the end of time, and eric roberts spitting bile at the eighth doctor. A more roger delgado like restrained master who was quite calm and even had some respect for the doctor as opposed to complete loathing would be different to John simms version. Whatever moffat does he has got alot to follow on from the end of time more than RTD did at the end of last of the time lords as not only could the master be back in the time war, but he is in a body that is dying and he has redeemed himself. Where is the master is he able to regenerate in his dying body or will he just steal one like the keeper of traken, and what is his attitude to the doctor now, considering he did sacrifice himself to destroy the time lords, though I reckon that was just because he was pissed off at them rather than to save the doctor. Still it will make for an interesting conversation between the two when they next meet, Moffat will have all this to answer and he will also have to have a really good story to have the master back too. The end of time was a great send off for the master going out like that [that and dalek caan were so much better ways of redeeming villains than Dalek or the awful Jubilee it was based on were] so to bring him back again after he has redeemed himself will need a really good story. Again I am confident Moffat will be able to do all this but I dont think he is doing it any time soon, as a story to wrap all these issues will probably take along while to do, I think moffat is taking his time with that and wont rush into it just to have the master a well known villain in the final.
