Lake 2

Lake 2, also known as the Great Lake, was the second incarnation of Lake, a Proto-Time Lord clone of River Song and the leader of a religious cult.

Biography
Lake 2 was taller than his previous incarnation, looked younger, had a thinner face, had different coloured eyes and hair, was left-handed, and had an allergy to cheese. At first, the other clones did not believe he was the same person, despite Wadi's confirmation of witnessing his transformation, but eventually they grew to believe him and regarded him as a spiritual leader of their group.

Lake grew obsessed with his own mortality and couldn't stand not knowing how long he could cheat death. After discovering that Rindle also had the ability to regenerate, Lake alienated him from the group and covertly watched him. After Rindle regenerated into a female incarnation, Lake found her, killed her, and continued killing each of Rindle's subsequent regenerations in order to study the process and find out how many lives Rindle had. When Rindle's lives were used up, Lake resolved to convince the remaining members of his group to seek continual rebirth so he could secretly continue studying their deaths.

Lake later met Mr Quisling in a bar and they began to talk about the Euthanasia program on Terminus Prime. Knowing that some of his cult followers would be there, he killed Quisling and was also forced to regenerate in the same encounter. Lake realised that if he focused on Quisling's face, he could take on that form for his next body. (AUDIO: The Lady in the Lake)
