God (Future Pain)

God, also known as the Old God (AUDIO: Escape Room) or the Lord, (AUDIO: Future Pain) was a being that travelled from planet to planet answering prayers and feeding off of faith, ultimately resulting in the destruction of the world's people.

Before Earth
By the 2010s, God was so old that she could not remember if she had any other name, nor what kind of being she was. (AUDIO: Thoughts and Prayers) She travelled from world to world with her arrival preceded by the Herald, who prepared the inhabitants for her. (AUDIO: Herald of the Dawn, Future Pain) She fed on the faith of those that worshipped her and heard all of their prayers. However, granting these prayers always resulted in the destruction of the world. (AUDIO: Day Zero, Thoughts and Prayers)

The Sorvix fled from their home planet to Cardiff in the late 2010s when God came to them. This time, the Herald hid from God in the body of Gwen Cooper. (AUDIO: Herald of the Dawn) Bilis Manger sent the location of Earth to God through the Rift. (AUDIO: A Kill to a View) She eventually came to Cardiff through the Rift at Torchwood Three Hub. (AUDIO: Herald of the Dawn)

Arriving in Cardiff
God appeared on Colchester's memorial service in the form of a pleasant humanoid woman, chatting with Tyler Steele. (AUDIO: Future Pain) Answering Tyler's prayer, she resurrected Colchester. (AUDIO: Day Zero)

Still in the humanoid form, she briefly met with Brent Hayden, whom Tyler was using to cover up the Sorvix presence in Cardiff, and granted his wish for more subscribers. (AUDIO: The Man Who Destroyed Torchwood) She was also present when an alien predator covered the whole of Cardiff in total darkness, until Yvonne Hartman was able to trap and kill it. She saved Ng from being killed by the predator and approached Orr. (AUDIO: See No Evil)

She appeared to Orr after the Black Sun came to the city and put almost everyone to sleep. She told her that she's the only one who can maintain the "night watch", and used Orr's unique powers to absorb the pieces of the Light that followed the Black Sun and latched to people's pain. Later she explained to Orr that the Light was the only thing left after the first attack of the Black Sun, after it destroyed their home planet. Orr helped to unite the Light together, and now God was able to give them a new home. She also told Orr that she wouldn't reveal herself to the rest of the Torchwood team until they start to "get along". And after that she showed Orr her true powers, declaring "God is love", and that turned Orr to a puddle. (AUDIO: Night Watch)

She later appeared to Norton Folgate on the crashing plane, telling him to remember who his "true friends" are (AUDIO: Flight 405) and again to Tyler Steele when he became homeless and suffered at the hand of the drug-injecting drones, reminding him of one person he saved in the past, but he could not remember. (AUDIO: Hostile Environment) She was referring to Colchester. (AUDIO: Thoughts and Prayers)

The Committee planned on using God's power to remake Earth, unaware that God had transferred her powers to Orr. After the Committee was defeated by Yvonne Hartman, God left Cardiff intending to open a tea shop. (AUDIO: Thoughts and Prayers)
