Having somehow managed to survive her death from the laser screwdriver, and regenerate into a new body, the Master returned to Gallifrey, and learnt that its entire history had been "built on the lie" of the Timeless Child. Embittered by this secret, he took revenge on his home-planet, leaving it in ruin.

Wanting to inform the Thirteenth Doctor of his discovery, the Master worked with a race called the Kasaavin and tech billionaire Daniel Barton in a plot to wipe out humanity. His plan was thwarted at the last second by the Doctor, and the Master was imprisoned in the Kasaavins' realm.

Biography
After her apparent death at the hands of her past self, (TV: The Doctor Falls) Missy found a way to change into their twentieth incarnation. (PROSE: Girl Power!)

At one point, the Master returned to Gallifrey, where he learned the truth of the Timeless Child. Enraged that he had been lied to about who the Time Lords were as a species, the Master decided he had to "make them pay"; he ravaged Gallifrey and left the Citadel in a flaming ruin, having apparently killed all of the Time Lords. (TV: Spyfall)

Alliance with the Kasaavin
Wanting to send a message to the Doctor about what had transpired on Gallifrey, the Master found a species known as the Kasaavin from another dimension had embedded across the universe as sleeper agents in the event they went on the offensive. Brokering an alliance with them, the Master recruited Daniel Barton into his plan to trap the Doctor by proposing that Barton and the Kasaavin turn human race into hard drives. As part of the plan, the Master arranged for "The Silver Lady" to be delivered to Charles Babbage, and that it was passed on to those who would influence the development of computers through history until it ended up with Barton. (TV: Spyfall)

Undercover as O
The Master used his Tissue Compression Eliminator to kill a newly-recruited MI6 agent on his first day, and took his place. He was put to work as an analyst known as "Horizon Watcher", and given the codename "O" as a joke on how his superior, "C", would react to his presence. During his time at MI6, the Master crossed paths with the Doctor in an unknown incarnation. Not recognising the Master, the Doctor stayed in contact with "O" via text messages. "O" was eventually sacked by C sometime prior to 2020, and the Master went into hiding in Australia, using his TARDIS as a hideout.

By 2020, the Kasaavin began to attack spies from different agencies all across the Earth once the intelligence services started to realise their presence, leading MI6 to track down the Thirteenth Doctor. While the Doctor was at MI6's HQ, the Master personally assassinated C, and the Kasaavin forced the Doctor and her friends to flee to "O"'s alleged location in the Great Victoria Desert. Upon their arrival, "O" greeted the Doctor and Graham O'Brien. He assisted the Doctor by sharing his findings and, after a staged Kasaavin attack, travelled with Team TARDIS to confront Barton.

At Barton's party, "O" blended in with the other guests until Barton fled, making the team pursue him to an airport. As Barton was about to take off, the team ran to the plane, with "O" almost not catching up, using the excuse that he was terrible at sprinting. This triggered the Doctor's suspicion, as "O"'s file said he was a champion sprinter. After being confronted over the inconsistency, the Master decided to reveal his true identity, even showing Team TARDIS the shrunken corpse of the real "O". He then revealed he had been working with Barton and the Kasaavin, and left Team TARDIS in the plane as a detonated a bomb in the cockpit. (TV: Spyfall)

Chasing the Doctor
Alerted to the Doctor's survival by Barton, the Master followed her to 1834 London, where he held a crowd at the Adelaide Gallery hostage to draw out the Doctor. However, after a brief conversation with her, the Master was forced to flee when attacked by Ada Gordon.

The Master next chased the Doctor and Ada to 1943 Paris, where he set himself up as German officer using a Tiny Teutonic psychic perception filter to hide his non-Aryan appearance from the Nazis. Once the Doctor made contact with him, the Master met her atop the Eiffel Tower, where he revealed his real plan had been to get the Doctor's attention and persuade her to return to Gallifrey. However, the Doctor had had Noor Inayat Khan leak information to the Nazis of the Master being a double agent, and, as they came to arrest him, deactivated the perception filter to ensure his capture while she stole his TARDIS. (TV: Spyfall)

Trapped in the Kasaavin realm
After seventy-seven years of waiting, the Master finally caught up to Team TARDIS just as the Kasaavin were enacting their invasion. However, the Doctor thwarted the Master's plot and exposed to the Kasaavin the Master's plan to betray them and Barton. Furious, the Kasaavin captured the Master, trapping him in their reality, (TV: Spyfall) though the Doctor remained convinced he would find a way to escape. (TV: Fugitive of the Judoon)

Personality
Believing "a little chaos [to be] a wonderful thing", the "Spy" Master could fall into unpredictable fits of rage, stating he could "relate" to a short-fused bomb, to the point that he attempted to strangle the Doctor with his bare hands. After taking a crowd hostage, he spontaneously focused on a cowering woman and demanded to know if she had moved, only to apologise for his "mistake" before killing her with the TCE.

The "Spy" Master enjoyed playing long games, like tricking the Thirteenth Doctor into believing he was "O", gleefully clapping his hands at the Doctor's inability to deduce who he was despite giving clues and expressing he had had "a lot of fun" when she finally realised he had fooled her.

While not above working with others to achieve his goals, the Master did not see his partners as equals, but as assets to use for his own gain and dismiss once they had served their purpose. His arrogance was so profound that he did not even attempt to conceal his TARDIS in 1943 Paris.

He had a passion for killing others, remarking how it gave him a "buzz", and that it felt right in his hearts to do so. This passion, when infused with anger, was reawakened in him when he discovered the lies about the Timeless Child that the Time Lords had committed, driving him to commit genocide back on Gallifrey. Despite his love of killing, he showed remorse about the genocide.

Despite not wanting her as his enemy again, the Master loved playing mind games on the Doctor and treating her as an inferior, having her kneel before him when he was holding hostages. He chased her through time to force her to listen to him just to get a message across, but would express rage when she outsmarted him. He also looked down on her companions, likening his apparent killing of them to "swat[ting] flies".

However, beneath his charismatic exterior, the "Spy" Master hid a melancholy pain, recounting his ravaging of Gallifrey with sombre calm, though he was still petty enough not to divulge the entire truth of the Timeless Child to the Doctor, reasoning it should be as difficult for her to discover the truth as it was for him. He was also unnerved by the sounding of a four-beat rhythm that resembled "the Drumming". (TV: Spyfall)

Habits and quirks
The "Spy" Master held a flair for using elaborate disguises, even going as far as shaving his head while disguised as a Gestapo officer in 1943. (TV: Spyfall)

Skills
He was also a convincing actor, being able to masquerade as O for years without arousing suspicion, with a performance convincing enough to fool the Doctor. (TV: Spyfall)

Appearance and clothing
The "Spy" Master was a short-standing, skinny man with dark skin, black hair, and brown eyes. While he went with a stubble appearance as "O", once he outed his true identity, he grew out a complete beard.

After being stranded on Earth for seventy-seven years, the Master took to wearing a purple double-breasted overcoat jacket, with a navy blue shirt, and a dark blue waist with a rust-check pattern, two blue chains, silver shank buttons and black lapels. He also wore trousers with a rust-check pattern, purple knee-high socks, and dark smart shoes.

He regularly disguised himself as various individuals, such as an auction dealer and even a Nazi officer, shaving his hair off for the latter. (TV: Spyfall)
