Straxus (The Great War)

Straxus was instructed by the Lord President of Gallifrey to send the Eighth Doctor to France during World War I.

Biography
Straxus later saved the Doctor and his new companion Molly O'Sullivan from a group of Daleks. His TARDIS was attacked by the Daleks and he escaped back to Gallifrey. Straxus attempted to kill himself by throwing himself off a mountain on Srangor, where regeneration was impossible, but was stopped by his future self's temporal drone. Straxus modified the retro-genitor particles implanted in Molly to target the Daleks instead of the Time Lords, but in a confrontation with Kotris and the Dalek Time Controller, the Time Controller killed him. This meant he could never become Kotris, and the scheme was entirely undone. (AUDIO: The Great War, Fugitives, Tangled Web, X and the Daleks, The Death of Hope)
