Incarnations

• The Third Corsair was a woman with pale white skin and long black hair. Her Ouroboros tattoo was large and multicoloured and situated on her upper back. It was the largest version of the tattoo the Corsair had in any incarnation. (REF: Eleven Things You Probably Didn't Know About the Corsair)

• The Fourth Corsair was male and often got drunk with the Doctor. Twice, they woke up in jail and on one occasion they woke up in the Bank of England vaults.

• The Eighth Corsair was male and often got drunk with the Doctor. Twice, they woke up in jail and on one occasion they woke up in the Bank of England vaults. However these specific events haven’t been attributed to a particular incarnation of the Corsair, out of the three confirmed to often get drunk with the Doctor. (REF: Eleven Things You Probably Didn't Know About the Corsair)

Timeline

Sixth Incarnation

• COMIC: Old Friends

In a white female body, The Corsair meets the Thirteenth Doctor for the first time and helps her save a Star Whale from the Hoarder. She recalls waking up in a bank vault with the Doctor.

• COMIC: Alternating Current

Seventh Incarnation

• PROSE: One Virtue, and a Thousand Crimes

In a dark skinned female body, and while travelling with a Parrot companion, the Corsair steals the Hand of Omega on behalf of the First Doctor, as a favour for the Thirteenth Doctor, setting this after Old Friends. She hopes to be "strapping" and "muscular" in either her next incarnation or the one after that.

The Seventh Corsair was present on Clarkor Nine when a Dalek scout ship landed. The following day, the Daleks discovered that their suction cup and weapon arms had been unscrewed and removed in the night, and fused together into the shape of an insulting word in Skarosian. (REF: Eleven Things You Probably Didn't Know About the Corsair)

Ninth incarnation

• PROSE: One Virtue, and a Thousand Crimes

In an incarnation described as "a strapping, big fellow", the Corsair visits a Supreme Ruler and collects a feather belonging to his parrot companion.

While working for the Time Lords on the Fourth Universal Survey Expedition, the Ninth Corsair arrives on an intelligent asteroid that calls itself House. Before he realised that he was trapped, his TARDIS had already been killed and eaten by House. He recorded a distress message on a Hypercube, but before he could send it he was killed by House. (REF: Eleven Things You Probably Didn't Know About the Corsair)

• TV: The Doctor's Wife

The Eleventh Doctor receives the Corsair's hypercube and investigates it’s origins. Arriving in the bubble universe, the Doctor discovers that House has killed the Corsair. Although the Corsair doesn’t appear, his severed arm does and now belongs to Auntie, while his spine and kidneys have been transplanted into Uncle.
