User:BananaClownMan/Sandbox/The Master (Early)

Sometime after leaving Gallifrey, the Master found himself being confronted by various incarntions of the Doctor on Destination, Segonax and a human colony planet.

Post-regeneration
After regenerating into his seventh incarnation, the Time Lord became more ruthless and began to use the name of "the Master" (PROSE: CIA File Extracts) for the first time since leaving the Academy. (AUDIO: The Destination Wars) He visited the Scoundrels Club to recover from the regeneration in comfort. (PROSE: Dismemberment)

Early exploits
Under unknown circumstances, the Master stole a Type-45 TARDIS from Gallifrey while the Quadriggers were still working on it. Due to still being damaged, it fell apart around him almost instantly, stranding the Master on the furthest arm of a galaxy in the "earliest Segments of Time". He took charge of the planet Destination, assuming the title of "the Inventor", and developed the planet's technology for his own ends. He pitted the human colonists against the Dalmari, so that the colonists would develop the nuclear technology he planned to use to refuel his TARDIS's engines. When the First Doctor arrived, he changed his plans and tried to steal the Doctor's TARDIS to escape. He was able to trick Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright into leading him to the ship, but they were able to overpower him and use the fast return switch to take the TARDIS back to Destination. The Master ultimately became trapped in his own laboratory after the Doctor had rerouted its power to help Destination to rebuild. (AUDIO: The Destination Wars)

On Segonax, the Master allied himself with the Gods of Ragnarok, and used a pendant they gave him to contact a street artist on Zamyatin named Kingpin and use Kingpin's free spirited energy to cause a psychic storm, which caused a revolution on Zamyatin. The Master then persuaded Kingpin to organise a collective of various artists and bring them to Segonax to become the Psychic Circus. The Master then persuaded the Chief clown to organise a talent contest so that new energy could be acquired. When Kingpin managed to contact the Seventh Doctor, the Master used his abilities to stop him from reaching the Circus, first creating an illusion of him landing on Zamyatin, and then one of him returning to Paradise Towers. When the Doctor eventually came to the Circus, he and the Master confronted each other on a psychic plane, where the Doctor exploited the Gods' curiosity to buy time to steal the pendant from the Master and pass it to Kingpin. Kingpin then used the pendant to free the Circus from the Master and the Gods' influence, and the Master was left at the mercy of the Gods of Ragnarok. (AUDIO: The Psychic Circus)

Later deeds
After arriving on a planet where human colonists had settled in a fictional recreation of an English village during the Second World War to live in peace away from Earth, the Master took control of the environment, organised a home guard and armed the original population of the planet to entice a conflict and demonstrate that an outgunned and outnumbered group of people could resist against a much greater enemy when properly motivated. When the Second Doctor arrived with Ben Jackson, Polly Wright and Jamie McCrimmon, the Master hypnotised them into joining his experiment. The Doctor, however, immersed himself too deep in his role of commander of the home guard and made contact with the aliens to reach a peaceful solution, resulting in the aliens attacking earlier than the Master had anticipated. In the ensuing battle, the Master escaped in his TARDIS, with the intent of returning to look on the results of the conflict. However, when he returned, the Doctor had already set a trap for him after persuading the fighters into a peace. The Master was captured and put on trial for illegal use of mind control, while his TARDIS was confiscated. (AUDIO: The Home Guard)

Death
The Master was forced to regenerate after receiving a beating in a Trastevarian jail. (PROSE: Save Yourself)

Post-mortem
When the was stripped of his Trakenite body by the the Time Lords, and after his plot to steal the Fifth Doctor's regenerations failed, he found himself confronting mental projections of all his past incarnations, and was able to steal a bit of life energy from each of them, allowing him to regenerate back into his Trakenite body. (PROSE: The Velvet Dark)

Personality
The Master was very self-centred, willing to influence a whole planet's development to refuel his TARDIS, and equally willing to abandon his plans just to steal the Doctor's TARDIS. He found amusement in shaping a culture to his benefit. He looked down on others as his inferiors, claiming to have "longed for a mind equal to [his] own" when confronting the Doctor on Destination. He particular disregarded humans as "ape descended primitives". (AUDIO: The Destination Wars)

Skills
He used his hypnotic abilities regularly, subjugating even adept minds such as Susan Foreman with ease. (AUDIO: The Destination Wars)

Appearance and clothing
When he met the Doctor, Susan, Ian and Barbara on Destination, the Master had short hair and a beard, both of which were almost completely grey, save for some dark patches. His eyes were brown in colour. He wore an asymetrical black coat with a large white lined collar on the left-hand side. (AUDIO: The Destination Wars)

He later adopted a black Nehru jacket. (AUDIO: The Home Guard)
