Gods & Men (Partner Found - Interest Check Closed)

Added more info to the Sphere of Influence lore as it was sorely lacking. Up next is the Planes section and that'll be it. The rest will be discussed with interested parties as it's all really a matter of taste from here.

Gods & Men (Partner Found - Interest Check Closed)

Made some minor edits and added a template CS.

Gods & Men (Partner Found - Interest Check Closed)

_{“God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of any of the other players [i.e. everybody], to being involved in an obscure and complex variant of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.”
― Terry Pratchett, Good Omens: The Nice and Accurate Prophecies of Agnes Nutter, Witch}

The premise of this 1x1 is quite simple. After having made many god and/or divine characters these last few months, I find myself wanting to roleplay a deity alongside at least one other person, primarily using the lore from Wizards of The Coast old Primal Order sourcebook as a foundation. Which I will provide a link to below along with snippets of pertinent lore of course. Now before anyone says it, no this will not be tabletop nor involve any of the actual rules, as rules are quite silly when writing of gods anyway, merely the information the book itself provides. Finally, I don't exactly have a plot in mind save wanting a world in which our gods might play, the exact structure and cosmology of which I am more than willing to discuss and create with prospective partners. It should be noted that I do have at least one major stipulation regarding this, that being everything emerges from the void, be it the gods or planes or what have you, and that everything eventually returns there.

Not because of edge, mind you, but out of a fondness for Babylonian/Sumerian/Akkadian mythology and the role it so often plays in many of those cultures creation myths. Plus it serves as a very simple and easy to understand birthing point for things.

That being said, onto the general rules and expectations.

• You must be at least 18+ to write with me, namely because of preference but also because there won't be many restrictions on how dark or gruesome or sexual any plots we make can get due to it being carried out via PMs, minus a few things that I personally just don't feel comfortable with. Speaking of, romance is fine, but I'd like it to be built up naturally if possible and not forced from the get-go. Other than that I don't expect it to be the whole focus of the roleplay.
  ‎
• Touched on it briefly above, but yes, I would like for any writing to be done over PM so as to not breach the rules of the Guild. As for post length, just give me enough to work with. You don't need to be a poet, though you do need to have at least decent grammar, punctuation, and spelling, and you don't need to write a book, but I can't be expected to reply very well to nothing more than a single sentence.
  ‎
• In regards to schedule, I'm pretty much free from Sunday to Saturday, minus the span of 10:05 AM to 12:35 PM, in which time I attend my computer information systems class. As such, I should be able to reply in a fashionable manner, but if I cannot for whatever reason I will endeavor to let you know. Because of this my expectations in terms of posting frequency will be quite lax, though I would prefer it if whoever I am partnered with returns the favor and lets me know when they cannot post in advance. Same thing goes for a loss of motivation. I'd like to avoid ghosting if possible, so if the roleplay begins to feel stale or you're just not interested in it anymore, please let me know so I'm not left hanging or so we can possibly work a more interesting story out.
  ‎
• I will be using a sheet for my character, a template of which I'll provide below later on, to keep track of their personality and such. I expect partners to make their own sheets for their own characters as well.

The Primal Order

Primal

Primal Energy

Primal energy, often shortened to just "primal," is unique to deities. Every deity has at least a small amount of primal, and the more powerful the deity, the more primal the deity possesses. Indeed, primal energy is the underlying basis of divinity.

Primal energy is the most fundamental energy in the universe and the most powerful, the most "raw." It can bypass all "normal" magical, physical, and mental defenses as if they weren't even there, and none of these forces can bypass a primal shield. This is not to say that primal energy is completely unstoppable—primal defenses can be worn down—but there is no normal defense against primal, and no normal attack can completely bypass a primal defense. Primal energy cannot be negated, bypassed, cancelled, dispelled, or absorbed; the only way to stop primal is with primal.

Since gods' souls are sustained by primal energy, they don't necessarily require bodies, although there are a lot of good reasons for having them. This fact, and the power of primal to change reality, means that deities are free to choose the appearance of their bodies. Abilities like sight or strength may be enhanced; new abilities may be added. Deities can spread their awareness over a wide area, gaining knowledge from many places at once. They can exert influence in a like way.

Primal energy exists in two forms, base and flux. Primal base is the form of primal energy that gives the soul divine qualities; it is almost synonymous with the deity's soul. In general, the more primal base a deity possesses, the more powerful the deity becomes. Primal flux, on the other hand, is the active component of primal energy; deities use flux in order to create primal effects. The important thing to remember is that primal base is the regenerative form of primal energy. Primal base transcends the law of conservation of energy; as such, it is a very precious commodity and deities do not use it lightly.

Primal energy controls how it engages reality; it can ignore it or affect it in ways that more "normal" means cannot. Because of this, it becomes an extension of a deity's will; through the use of primal energy, a deity can affect reality directly without having to resort to spell research, monetary expense, or any significant amount of time. However, the expenditure of primal is not a trivial matter. Deities must conserve primal for other things, such as supporting their clerics, minions, creations, and possibly less powerful gods if they so choose, doing research into their spheres of influence, and so on. An even more important thing to consider is that deities always want a reserve of flux; you never know what the day has in store.

As long as a deity has even the slightest ounce of primal base, that deity lives on. Should they have no primal base however, that deity dissipates into the void and ceases to be.

Primal Base

Primal base is primal energy in a stable form. It is what binds together a deity's soul, and the more base a deity has, the better that deity can directly affect reality. Flux generated from this base is what deities usually use to affect reality. A good analogy to use when trying to understand the difference between primal base and primal flux is to think of primal base as "principal" and primal flux as "interest;" you can spend either one, but spending primal base will decrease your principal, and therefore reduce your interest gains of primal flux in the long run. One place where this analogy fails is that you aren't allowed to "reinvest" your flux.

Since deities do not have to be in physical contact with their primal base, one of the fundamental strategies a deity learns very early is to keep a safe reservoir of primal base, possibly in several locations. Since primal base is very stable, it can easily be partitioned into separate portions; a deity might divide primal base among several planes and an artifact, just to make its destruction particularly difficult. Primal base can also be converted directly to primal flux at anytime, though given the value of base and the difficulty in procuring it, this is rarely done. When deities split up their primal base, they retain only one level of consciousness; to have multiple levels of consciousness the deity must use an ability called omnipresence. Whether or not a deity's base is split up, the flux generated by that base will always go directly to the deity, as long as the two are not separated some sort of force or shield that would stop such a transfer, such as another deity's primal flux shield.

Nothing in the universe can use a deity's primal energy, base or flux, against that deity's will. Since the deity's base and soul are inextricably combined, the deity must consent to someone else's use of that primal energy. This means that primal base cannot be destroyed or harmed in any way short of a primal attack from another deity.

Primal Flux

Clearly, primal base is a precious commodity, and is rarely used directly. The form of primal energy deities use most often is primal flux, or simply flux, which can support clerical hierarchies, setup primal-based defensive shields, and unleash "primal blast" attacks, among other applications. Though primal flux is very powerful, it has a short lifespan. It must be used within a day of its creation or it will dissipate. Primal flux serves as the physical manifestation of the deity's will. This ensures that any use of primal flux will serve the deity's will flawlessly; a primal blast will always hit its intended target, a primal shield will always protect its occupants, and a primal-enhanced spell will always be perfectly aimed. The only way to ruin this is if other deities intervene with their primal energy.

Primal Signatures

Primal energy is difficult to hide. Any use of primal energy sets up a signature unique to the deity. Deities can sense such signatures and recognize those with which they are already familiar; they are invisible to mortals. A deity is allowed to create accompanying effects with almost any primal-based ability ("a crackling red and silver streak of energy issues from Nergal's hand and echoes with the wailing of a thousand tortured souls ..."). Deities can even use such enhancements to fool mortals into thinking that another deity might be responsible for a particular phenomenon, but the signature is infallible and cannot be hidden from another deity. Note that the signature only lasts as long as the effect; there is no residual signature.

Identifying a signature is a fairly straightforward matter. If Joey visited Pele's volcano, it would be clear from the protective curse laid on the lava stones that a goddess had affected them. If he met Pele in person, it would be clear that the curse is hers, since the signature will match her primal aura. Also, just as mortal family members often share a last name, pantheons of deities will tend toward similar signatures. If Joey wanted to teach a group of deities what Pele's signature is like, the only reasonably effective method would be to grab one of those rocks and show it to them. Trying to describe a signature second-hand is rather difficult and prone to error. The best way to do this is to describe them in terms of senses. For example, Pele's signature might be "hot and red." Joey's could be "a placid calm with gentle waving," or "a rustling dampness," or something like that. For that matter, Pele could be "spiky black" or "slinky huskiness with hints of ginger," if you want to make it harder for the players to match deities with signatures. Don't get stuck on one sense, either. The examples just listed use emotion, sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste.

Engagement

Engagement is the term for describing whether primal energy does or does not affect another force or substance. Deities can choose with which other bits of the universe their primal energy will interact. The process of setting up what a deity's primal energies will engage is called keying the primal. For example, Pele is annoyed by an incredibly foolish mortal witch. Showing unusual restraint, she keys her attack for magic instead of sending a blast of primal energy to destroy the witch. As a result, the witch is untouched by the nasty energies playing around and through her, but every magic item she has is vaporized.

Limitations of Primal Energy

In spite of the incredible power and versatility of primal energy, it is a limited resource. When a deity's flux is gone, it's time to switch to another resource or possibly die. Finally, the best way to fight primal is with primal. Primal energy may be powerful, but if an opponent has it too, the situation boils down to finesse.

Spheres of Influence

Spheres of Influence

When you hear that Mars is the God of War, or that Pele is the Goddess of Lava, you're hearing about spheres of influence. A sphere of influence is more than just liking something; it requires that the deity and the concept become fundamentally joined. Plooplah, whom you may remember is the Goddess of Chickens, may like bowling very much and bowl whenever she gets a chance, but that's not enough to establish bowling as another sphere of influence. It requires scholarly research, research involving primal energy, actually claiming the topic, an epic event, and using more primal energy to back up the claim.

A sphere of influence is an aspect of reality that the deity has specifically staked out as his or her own. In more common terms, a sphere of influence is often what the deity is known as "god of." However, this isn't a hard and fast rule. Some deities will have spheres of influence that are not quite as well publicized. There aren't many good reasons for downplaying a sphere, but as we know, deities can be somewhat ineffable. For instance, many stories in Greek mythology associate Aphrodite with beauty, so beauty might well be one of her spheres of influence, though love is the most famous.

Development of a sphere of influence requires extensive research in the area, in addition to becoming associated with the concept in the minds of worshipers, the public at large, and other deities. All deities can manipulate the universe, but the better they understand certain aspects of it, the better their control over those aspects. A deity who studies only the attributes of war or magic has much more knowledge in these areas and thus more control and power than other deities of equal strength.

Ultimately, however, the complete development of a sphere of influence requires one final step: the establishment of an actual metaphysical overlap between the deity and the chosen sphere of influence, so that the deity and the concept become fundamentally connected to each other. This is more than just being associated with the concept; it involves actually becoming an underlying part of the concept. The deity must become so entrenched in the concept that wherever the concept exists, the deity's influence will be felt.

On rare occasions, this final meld between deity and sphere of influence might happen without anybody noticing, but by far the most common catalyst is a heroic quest, some event or task that defines and establishes a deity's right to claim his or her sphere of influence. After Pele had prepared herself for a position as a volcano goddess, her defeat of the previous owner of Mauna Loa was the heroic quest that established her sphere of influence. The fact that the process also netted her a home plane was a nice bonus.

Planes

Planes

Planes are where deities live, to put it simply. A plane is somewhere that gods go that mortals can't usually reach by any normal form of transportation. If mortals can get there on their own, it probably requires passing a particular gate or point Orpheus made it to Hades, but he had to pass over the River Styx and past the Gates of Hades to get there. Mount Olympus was also a plane separate from our own. The plane that most characters will think of as "their" plane is usually referred to as the main plane. Normally, getting from the main plane to any other plane, whether or not that plane is controlled by a deity, requires some very special circumstances. There's no particular restriction on how many planes there can be, or on what the rules of travel are between them.

Planar Basics

Basically, a plane is a place you can't get to by any normal means of transportation, a place that's "not here." Walking, sailing, or flying won't get you to Narnia; it takes a certain magic wardrobe for that. Tornadoes are the preferred transport to Oz, and we still don't know of any way to get to Middle Earth.

This isn't a perfect definition, unfortunately. Sometimes you can just walk to a place that would qualify as another plane; Mount Olympus is one example. The big feature of a plane is its limited access. If you are on the plane that mortals usually inhabit (which you may know as the prime material plane, reality, or the first plane; we'll call it the main plane), getting to another plane is going to be hard, hard, hard. In the case of Mount Olympus, no mortals will get there unless the Olympian gods notice someone searching and decide to reveal and open the gate. Otherwise, all the poor seekers will ever find up there is goats and hypothermia.

The idea of gates is a key one. You can connect planes physically, but it's not recommended. In any case, there will always be very specific points through which you must pass to cross from one plane to another. If the United States and Canada had an impenetrable wall of primal force between them, and you could only get from one to the other at the Customs stations, then we would be on our way toward making the U.S. and Canada separate planes.

Examples of such gateways to other worlds occur frequently in mythology and fiction. In one myth, Orpheus traveled to Hades and back, passing through two gateways—the River Styx and the gate guarded by Cerberus—by means of the magic in his music. In the movie Mary Poppins, Mary takes the Banks children and Bert for a lovely day spent with dancing penguins and a magic merry-go-round. They travel to this animated plane by way of a sidewalk chalk drawing. And in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the rabbit hole is Alice's gate to mad queens and mushrooms. None of these places is available to the typical bus traveler; each journey required either magic means of transport, passing through a specific point, or both.

Now obviously there is a lot more material from the PDF that I didn't put here, namely because it got far too gamey, but again I'm willing to work out specifics with those interested and willing.

In any case, thanks for reading. I look forward to seeing what interest this drums up.

The Black Prophecy (Dead now; requiescat in pace!)

~Ernald Joyce~

---

---

_{Early Spring, 315 P.F.
Paterdomus - Gates}

---

---

After several hours travel along the dusty old trail, Ernald and his mumbling companion soon found their gazes falling upon one of the holy city's many gates, the portcullis of which hung open in the distance like the gaping maw of some ancient and decrepit beast. Joyce found himself shuddering at the sight of it, though whether it was because of the size of the walls, the number of defenders at the gate, or the reaction of some evil planted deep within he could not say. In any case, the involuntary action had caused him to become keenly aware of the state of his clothes, which were mud stained and stiff from his ventures in Oldcross and the Maw. The whole getup had become extremely uncomfortable, and stunk to high hell, a sinister combination that made his flesh crawl. He would be glad when they finally crossed through the gate, initial discomfort aside, for it meant he could wash away the days worth of filth he'd acquired during his stay in the town...

Joyce found himself jostled from his thoughts as the cart creaked to a halt, one of the men-at-arms striding forth, spear in hand. Grunting, he looked at the old man curiously for a bit before shaking his head and moving over to the side in which Ernald sat. The scholar grimaced somewhat as the guardsman leaned in, the foul stench pouring from his mouth enough to make him gag, though he managed to keep the urge suppressed.

"State your name and business stranger," the man said, his voice akin to sandpaper being ground against glass.

"Ernald," Joyce replied, ignoring the acidic tang currently fading in the back of his throat. "Ernald Joyce. I'm a scholar from the city of Marleon who's traveling from mining town to mining town, gathering stories of their struggles and lives. My most recent stop was in Oldcross some miles south, and the folk there were kind enough to give me a ride here on one of their daily shipments."

The guard cast a glance at the back of the cart, inspecting its lumpy and amorphous looking cargo briefly before turning his attention back to Ernald with a small nod.

"Aye, we've been expecting another shipment for a while now. Didn't think it'd ever arrive."

He coughed up a wad of phlegm before hurling it to the ground.

"Glad to see I was wrong."

The man stepped back, sending a wave of relief washing over Joyce, who was just grateful to be free of his stench.

"Let em through!" he shouted, a calloused hand cupped to the side of his mouth. The guards that had gathered to block their path forward stepped aside as the old man bade the ox that pulled their cart move, reigns cracking against the warm evening air. Letting out a heated breath, the beast trudged forward, pulling the pair through the gates and deeper into Paterdomus' crowded streets.

The Valeyard

_{"There is some evil in all of us, Doctor – even you. The Valeyard is an amalgamation of the darker sides of your nature, somewhere between your twelfth and final incarnation, and I may say you do not improve with age."}

Age

Pinning down the Valeyard's exact age is a tricky thing given the seemingly paradoxical nature of his existence, but as far as he himself has revealed in various boasts, it would appear as though he is approximately 910 years old.

Gender

Male, though in future incarnations this might change.

Species

Time Lord: The Time Lords were inhabitants of the planet Gallifrey, who were most famous for the creation and attempted monopolization of time travel technology, as well as the creation and upholding of the Laws of Time. Time Lords were sensitive to timelines, being able to see "all that is, all that was, all that ever could be," but also "what must not be". They had an instinctive urge to stay away from events that would always happen, and were seen as nearly immortal, partially due to their ability to regenerate.

Appearance

While he appeared as a middle-aged man with light grey eyes and short black hair in a previous incarnation, the Valeyard currently appears as a much older gentleman with grey—almost white—hair, emerald colored eyes, and an almost deceptively welcoming countenance. As for clothing, while he was in full courtly dress the Valeyard wore long black robes with a stiff black collar edged in white and a black skullcap. After the trial of the Doctor, the Valeyard at least temporarily became the Keeper of the Matrix; this time he wore an orange version of his previous outfit with a stiff collar, though following his procurement of the Doctor's remaining regenerations and his most recent change in face, the Valeyard has since settled for wearing very tasteful—if elegant—pinstripe suit ensembles instead.

Personality

The Valeyard is similar in many ways to several of the Doctor's incarnations, being cunning and verbal, with a knack for manipulation. He also has a bit of a temper, and is prone to outbursts, but generally remains calm and collected, all of which are also traits displayed by several incarnations of the Doctor. However, his actions are constantly defined by his egotism, unlike the Doctor. The Valeyard will risk or sacrifice anything to ensure his own existence, even going so far as to break the Laws of Time, kill his own past self, and try to control the Dark Matrix despite the dangers its presence would pose to established history.

He has also described himself as "the summation of the Doctor's daring without his hesitation", and "ambition without regret", thinking overall that he could "do it all so much better than the Doctor".

The Valeyard seems to possess memories of the incarnations of the Doctor that fell before him. He predicted to the Sixth Doctor that he had "no idea" what was approaching in his life, offered to tell him of his next incarnation, whom he claimed was filled with "plots and schemes," all to "win a game that was never his to win." He described the Doctor's eighth incarnation as one that "won't ever be able to shake the shadow of death," and predicted that "there will be deaths" in the Doctor's future. He also expressed knowledge of the futures of the Doctor's companions Charley Pollard and Flip Jackson. When he was initially recruited to fight in the Time War, the Valeyard was described by Tamesan as the ideal soldier for the Time Lords, possessing all of the Doctor's skill and experience without his morality, being willing to do whatever it took to stop the Daleks, her description implying that he was responsible for the destruction of various planets in the name of Time Lord victory (or at least Dalek defeat).

Inventory

• Laser Screwdriver: A laser screwdriver was a laser device used by the Master, unlike the Doctor's sonic screwdriver. They were larger, bulkier and generally used as a lethal laser weapon instead of a multi-functioning tool. Laser screwdrivers had isomorphic controls so that only the Master could operate them. This was revealed when the Tenth Doctor attempted to shoot him with one.
  
  As a fatal weapon, a laser screwdriver shot highly lethal laser energy, in which the force produced was enough to send a human flying several feet. However, its effectiveness dwindled when used against the Doctor, after he was protected by a psychic field generated by the Archangel Network.
  
  Apart from the killing function, a laser screwdriver was capable of artificially ageing a target. The Master used the function to age the Doctor using a sample of his genetic code taken from his severed hand, turning him into an aged creature. A laser screwdriver that the Master eventually used whilst onboard a Mondasian colony ship, following the Doctor's acquisition of his previous screwdriver, was capable of killing Mondasian Cybermen and Neomorph Cyber-Lieutenants, as well as radically evolved "weapons grade" Cybermen when used in conjunction with the Twelfth Doctor's sonic screwdriver, Missy's sonic umbrella, and a Mondasian Cyberman's cyber-gun. A lower setting used to burn small incisions could disable a patient. This laser screwdriver could also burn through deadlock seals, generate an electrical pulse powerful enough to kill CyberNeomorphs and their Cyber-Leaders when fired at a damp metal surface, function as a torch, and call the inertia lifts of the colony ship. At its maximum setting, this laser screwdriver was capable of severely injuring a Time Lord beyond the point of regeneration.
  ‎
• TARDIS Key: A TARDIS key was the key to the exterior door of a TARDIS. They could be found in a variety of shapes and designs which could be customised by the owners. Whatever the key's shape and size, and whatever form the TARDIS' outer plasmic shell, the key would fit a lock somewhere in the structure. Use of a TARDIS key enabled entry to a locked TARDIS in the manner of other types of keys, and was not limited by the reconfigurable shape of either the key itself or the outer plasmic shell of the TARDIS. Different TARDIS shells had different locks, whether obvious or hidden, and a TARDIS lock would accept its key even if it was physically larger than the lock. Because of a metabolism detector behind the lock, unauthorized people who stole the Doctor's TARDIS key usually found themselves unable to open the TARDIS doors without the Doctor there. Nevertheless, companions were often able to use the Doctor's key without the Doctor around, and many had their own keys to the TARDIS. The keys changed shape as well, just as the TARDIS did.
  ‎
• Biodata Module: A biodata module was Time Lord technology which, when used in conjunction with a Chameleon Arch, could modify the biology of an individual, essentially changing that individual's species while a TARDIS could program the individual's memories to allow them to fit in better. Gallifreyan symbols were commonly inscribed on a module's external surface, which in rare cases caused it to be identified.
  
  The module, often shaped like a fob watch or a similar object, was placed on the front on the Time Lord's forehead and stored the Time Lord's essence. When opened, it would return it to the Time Lord. The Eighth Doctor claimed that destroying a Chameleon Arch while the user was not a Time Lord would render their Time Lord personality and biology irretrievable. The biodata module was incorporated with a perception filter to ensure that it would not be noticed. Modules resembling fob watches were activated by opening the lid. The module containing Ruth Clayton's true identity, appearing to be a fire alarm, was activated by breaking its glass.
  ‎
• Psychic Paper: Psychic paper was a blank, white card that had special properties. When shown to a person, it could usually induce them to see whatever the user wished them to see printed on it. However, it proved useless on geniuses such as William Shakespeare, those with basic psychic training, people who were illiterate, or those with feeble imaginations, such as Fenton. It was often used by the Doctor to gain entrance, confidence or trust with strangers, especially from their ninth incarnation on.

Powers & Abilities

Regeneration: Regeneration was the process by which Time Lords and others renewed themselves, causing a complete physical and often psychological change. It could happen because of severe illness, old age/fatigue or injury. It could also be invoked by choice, whether voluntary or involuntary. Conversely, regeneration could be prevented by choice, although choosing not to regenerate from fatal damage was essentially an act of suicide. However, a Time Lord could delay the actual change in appearance and enter "a state of grace" for a brief period of time. Precise damage to a Time Lord could also cause a delay in the regeneration starting.

Regarding specifics, Time Lords release massive amounts of a hormone called lindos in moments of extreme trauma, and it is this hormone which triggers regeneration. Newly regenerated Time Lords could be identified by elevated levels of lindos in their system. Time Lords are also said to have "packets" of regeneration energy in their bodies, one for each life. These packets can be physically removed from a Time Lord's body, essentially robbing them of their regenerations. During regeneration, a Time Lord experiences a surge of pure regenerative energy, as their entire system is rewritten and their universe molded into a new shape, with their very biodata being rewritten in the fabric of space-time. Unfortunately their immune systems are seriously weakened as this process takes place, with the result being that they could be infected by viruses such as the Faction Paradox biodata virus, which would normally have had no effect on them otherwise. On a wider scale, regenerations are so important to a Time Lord's timeline that even minor temporal paradoxes during the process of regeneration can have devastating consequences.

The Fourth Doctor explained that he still had the same body as his first incarnation; it had just been restructured a lot since then. He agreed that the process of regeneration went against Newton's Third Law, and added that he did violate a few laws "now and then". The Thirteenth Doctor described regenerating from her previous incarnation as "every cell in body burning" as her "whole body changed". She stated that, while changing, "there's this moment when you're sure you're about to die and then... you're born." She deemed the process as "terrifying".

The Valeyard's TARDIS

The Valeyard's TARDIS was a twisted future version of the Doctor's own ship, although another account indicated it might have been another TARDIS entirely. It appeared as a stone sarcophagus with the Doctor's thirteen faces engraved in it. When the Valeyard visited Victorian London however, it took the form of a costumers, where he created duplicates of various pieces of clothing worn by the Doctor and his companions.

By the time he met Bernice Summerfield, the Valeyard had taken apart the whole console to find a fault preventing the TARDIS from travelling correctly, either in the lateral stabilizers, the helmic regulator, or both, and he could not locate the Cloister Bell to disable it. Its translation circuit was less reliable with written languages. Some of the items it contained included tea, fruitcake from Christmas, 1888, and a knife used by an 18th century Chinese assassin. As of the present these issues have been fully resolved, as the Valeyard finally located and fixed the fault, allowing for proper travel once more. In regards to its exterior shell, only on very rare occasions will the ship ever appear in its sarcophagus form thanks to a fully functional chameleon circuit, though when it does it often materializes in a location standing up on one end. This is done primarily to give its pilot/pilots easier or quicker access to its interior.

Working on it now, though keep in mind that Teo's avatar is human, or any other species he wants technically but human for this.

Edit: Added skills and abilities.
