CORDIS

A CORDIS was the Word Lord equivalent of a TARDIS. CORDIS stood for Conveyance Of Repeating Dialogue In Space-time. (AUDIO: The Word Lord) CORDISes were described by the seventh Doctor as a complex linquistic structure.

CORDISes ran on common words and phrases used throughout the multiverse and disguised themselves as such. These disguises could be jokes. (AUDIO: A Death in the Family)

A CORDIS was able to translate matter in a manner that allowed their operator to assume a physical appearance that allowed them to interact with members from N space, and provide them with whatever they needed. The CORDIS Nobody No-One used provided him with a number of weapons while giving him a physical form that made him virtually indestructible.
