Sabjatrik

Sabjatric, called "the tyrant", was a Time Lord criminal. According to Skagra, Sabjatric and his brother Rungar together "dragged Gallifrey into a Second Dark Age". The two were members of one of the older Prydonian families, but according to legend they drowned their own mother in a leaky SIDRAT. They usurped the powers of the Lord President to wage a civil war on Gallifrey. They were overthrown, and imprisoned in Shada. (DWN: Shada)

When Skagra visited Shada in hopes of freeing the renegade Time Lord Salyavin, he accessed the prison index and passed over Rungar and Sabjatric before he found Salyavin. (WC: Shada, BFA: Shada) According to one account, Rungar, Sabjatric and Scintilla were among the "Ancient Outlaws" whom Skagra released and trapped in his "Universal Mind". After Skagra's defeat, the Doctor returned Sabjatric and the other prisoners to Shada. (DWN: Shada)

Behind the scenes
In most versions of Shada, Sabjatric is only a name on a prison file. It is not even clear that he is a Time Lord. However, in his novelisation of Shada, Gareth Roberts created an elaborate backstory for Sabjatric (though he spells the name "Subjatric"). The spelling "Sabjatric" is preferred on this wiki because it was used in the webcast version of Shada, which was broadcast by the BBC. See here for more details.
