Theory:Timeline - The Master (Bruce Gerhardt)

This page lists appearances of played by Anthony Ainley in the order in which he experienced them. It relies on much speculation to fit semi-contradictory sources together, and should absolutely not be seen as representative of this wiki's general policy.

After the Thirteenth Master stole the body of Bruce Gerhardt, this new Master adopted a rather distinct persona. The full timeline of the Thirteenth Master can be found here.

Timeline

 * TV: Doctor Who
 * Having survived his execution on Skaro as a Deathworm Morphant, the Master forces the Doctor's TARDIS to land in 1999 San Francisco, where, after the Doctor is critically injured, the Master possesses the body of Bruce Gerhardt. Bribing Chang Lee, the Master hunts down the Eighth Doctor to steal his body and remaining regenerations. During a final fight with the Doctor in his TARDIS, the Master is sucked into the Eye of Harmony.


 * After falling into the Eye of Harmony, the Eye attempts to convert the Master into pure energy, but he is able to escape into a spare room in the Doctor's TARDIS, which is then jettisoned into the Time Vortex. (AUDIO: The Lifeboat and the Deathboat)


 * AUDIO: The Lifeboat and the Deathboat
 * The Master has been trapped in the Time Vortex for hundreds of years. He escapes in a stasis capsule.


 * COMIC: The Abominable Showmen
 * The Master is still in possession of Bruce's body.


 * COMIC: The Five Masters
 * Follows on from The Abominable Showmen.


 * AUDIO: Day of the Master
 * Still in Bruce's body, the Master encounters the Eighth Doctor for the first time since Doctor Who. Missy and the "War Master" plan to wipe his memory and throw him back into the Time Vortex after they give a future version of the "Deathworm Master" a new regeneration cycle.


 * The Master was eventually drawn back into the Eye of Harmony. (AUDIO: Planet of Dust)
