Soothsayer

Soothsayer is a member of the Sibylline Sisterhood that were in Pompeii in 79 CE. She has eyes painted on the back of her hands - a sign of a soothsayer. She was the first of the Sisterhood to see the tardis or "Blue Box" that had appeared in a prophecy. She had psychic powers due to breathing in dust from Vesuvius that was converting her into a Pyrovile and could see time thanks to the rift activity there. It is likely that she died during the eruption as it has not been shown otherwise.

The Weeping Angel

In 2007, Sally Sparrow enters the dilapidated house, Wester Drumlins, to look for subjects to photograph but instead finds eerie angel-like statues, a Yale key hanging from one of their hands, and messages from "the Doctor" behind the peeling wallpaper addressed to her, warning her of the "Weeping Angels". Sally returns the next day with her friend Kathy Nightingale to explore further; Kathy disappears as at the same time a young man claiming to be Kathy's grandson delivers a letter to Sally. The letter from Kathy explains, just moments ago from Sally's perspective, Kathy suddenly found herself in the 1920s in Hull, settling down with a husband and leading a peaceful life, and requests Sally to let her closest relative, her brother Larry, know of her disappearance.

Sonic screwdriver

The sonic screwdriver is a fictional tool in the British science fiction television series Doctor Who. Its most common function is to operate virtually any lock, mechanical or electronic. It has also been used for repairing equipment, and as a weapon. Like the TARDIS, it has become one of the icons of the programme and is closely associated with the Doctor.

The Tardis.

"TARDIS" was an acronym. Susan explained to Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright that she had "made up the name 'TARDIS' from the initials" of the full name, "Time And Relative Dimension In Space".

Wilfred Mott

Wilfred was manning his newspaper stand in London, on Christmas Eve 2008, when he met the Doctor for the first time. At this point, Earth was aware of alien life and the threat they posed, and, given events surrounding the Sycorax (DW: The Christmas Invasion) and the Racnoss (DW: The Runaway Bride), believed that aliens might attack on Christmas. He claimed to the Doctor and Astrid to be the only person who has remained in London apart from Queen Elizabeth II (and her retinue in Buckingham Palace) as everyone else had fled into the countryside. He was angered when the Titanic hurtled over London.

Jackie Tyler

Jackie first met the Doctor after the department store where Rose worked was destroyed. When the Doctor arrived at the flat Jackie and Rose share, Jackie attempted to flirt with the Doctor, to little avail. This first encounter set the stage for a sometimes antagonistic relationship between the two. During the final phase of the Auton invasion, several Autons attacked Jackie, but her life was spared when Rose and the Doctor managed to destroy the physical form of the Nestene Consciousness.

Mickey Smith

Mickey was born around 1981. In at least one version of Mickey's life history, thanks to the agency of time travel; he met the adult version of Rose in 1987, whom the Doctor had transported to that time period. As a result, he "imprinted" on her and when they met again, he had a strong connection to her.

Lady Christina de Souze.

Lady Christina de Souza was a notorious thief who stole for the thrill of it, being bored with her aristocrat upbringing. By the time she is introduced to the series, Christina has already built a considerable reputation and is relentlessly pursued by Detective Inspector Macmillan.

Astrid Peth

Astrid Peth was an alien from the planet Sto who worked as a waitress aboard the Titanic. All her life she dreamed of seeing other planets. She first met the Doctor when she broke a glass and he offered to help her clean it up, but she rejected. Instead he decided to take her on a teleport trip down to Earth.

Sarah Jane Smith

Sarah Jane Smith was originally a journalist and then companion with the third and then fourth incarnations of the Doctor. Afterwards, still a journalist, she worked first with K-9 Mark III and then solo, uncovering evil plots on the side. In the late 2000s, while living in Ealing, she worked with her adopted son Luke and several young friends to fight evil aliens.

Donna Noble

Donna Noble was a fiercely independent companion of the Tenth Doctor. Despite humble origins, Donna Noble was noted by Rose Tyler as unknowingly being the most important woman in all of creation. (DW: Turn Left) While saving the universe, her mind was transformed into a Time Lord-Human metacrisis - the DoctorDonna. Unfortunately, her human biology was unable to cope with the increase in intellect, the sheer amount of knowledge and the Time Lord consciousness overwhelming her. The Doctor, to save her life, suppressed her memories of him so she no longer remembered either him or her travels in the TARDIS.

Martha Jones

Doctor Martha Jones was born in 1984 to Francine and Clive Jones. Martha had an older sister named Tish, a younger brother, Leo, and later a niece, Keisha Jones. Martha's parents divorced when Martha was quite young, and she, along with her brother and sister, grew up with thier mother in her upper-class victorian/tudor house. Clive lived elsewhere with his girlfriend Analease. We are led to beleve that he rarely saw his children, due to Martha exlaiming "Dad!?What are you doing there?" when she learns he is round at her mothers (DW: The Sound of Drums). A few of Martha's memories and pictures of Martha as a young child were briefly noted by the Doctor.

Jack Harkness

Captain Jack Harkness (sometimes simply "Captain Jack" to those close to him, or as the Doctor refers to him Captain), was the name adopted by a con man from the 51st century and an associate of the Doctor. His original identity remains a mystery; whenever asked he refuses to answer. Reluctantly immortal and stranded on early 21st century Earth, he headed Torchwood Three.

Rose Tyler

Rose Tyler was born to Jackie and Pete Tyler, on 27th April 1987. (DW: The Unquiet Dead, Dalek). But see also: Mysteries and Discrepancies.

She attended Jericho Street Junior School, where she was a member of the under-sevens gymnastic team, and she won the bronze medal in a school gymnastics competition. (DW: Rose)

Sycorax

The Sycorax were humanoid in basic appearance with red eyes. Sycorax had both an endo- and exoskeleton. This exoskeleton covered part of their head (giving them a skull-like appearance), while the rest of their face was exposed muscle. This exoskeleton could vary in appearance, from a smooth, skull-like shape to a more jagged, horned shape. Some Sycorax also had long flowing hair. Sycorax could live for up to 400 years.

Magnus Greel.

Magnus Greel was an the Minister of Justice for the Supreme Alliance in the 51st century. After the fall of the Alliance, he became a wanted war criminal, but escaped by using an experimental time cabinet, to the late 19th century China and then to London, where he continued his depraved activities on a smaller scale. This made him the first human to (officially) travel through time.

The Master

The Master, once known as Koschei and by various temporary aliases and pseudonyms, was an evil renegade Time Lord, who the Doctor, with whom he had grown up on Gallifrey, opposed many times. On at least one occasion, he threatened the existence of the universe itself.

The Cybermen

The Cybermen were cybernetically augmented humanoids. Though the Cybermen varied greatly in design through time, the various versions of the Cybermen had several things in common. Nearly all were silver in colour, though, for stealth purposes, a black variety also existed in the London sewers

Davros

Davros, originally the head of the Kaled Scientific Elite on the planet Skaro, presided over the creation of the Daleks. During the Imperial-Renegade Dalek Civil War, he served as Emperor of the Imperial faction and later of the Dalek race itself.

The Daleks

Daleks were mutated descendents of the Kaleds of the planet Skaro. They fought and destroyed the Time Lords in the Last Great Time War. They regarded the the Doctor as their greatest single enemy and were hated and feared throughout time and space.

The Trickster's Brigade

Like their leader, the Brigade sought to change the normal course of history by altering details in individuals' lives. According to the Tenth Doctor, most of these changes were "tiny" and ones that the universe could "compensate" for. However, if the Brigade's victims had a particularly great influence on the universe, the change would create an entire parallel world around that person.

Midnight

he planet's diamond-based geology was active. Diamond falls were a common occurrence. Midnight even had a Sapphire Waterfall. Earthquakes were thought to be impossible though. The planet had been left in silence for millions of years before humanity took over. The planet had no atmosphere and due to the destructive xtonic radiation of its sun it was thought that no life was possible on the planet, be it carbon-based, hydrogen-based, silicates, gas beings or other.

The Vashta Nerada

The Vashta Nerada were microscopic beings that lived in swarms, thousands strong. These swarms were able to strip a creature to its bare bones in milliseconds and the Doctor once described them as "piranhas of the air". While these swarms were not common, they inspired a fear of the dark in most species across the Universe, since any shadow could be made of Vashta Nerada.

The Vespiform

Vespiforms were a species of insectoids which resembled oversized wasps. Adults could measure around 3 metres in height. They were powerful creatures, with large stingers which could be regrown within hours of use. They had the ability to transform into the guise of other species. The transformations were accompanied by a glowing, purple-pink haze and left behind morphic residue. When in another form, Vespiforms were genetically compatible with the mimicked species. This allowed them to interbreed with members of other species.

The Judoon.

Judoon were two-metre high humanoids with a stocky build and rhinoceros-like heads. They had large lungs to help with breathing even in environments with low levels of oxygen. (DW: Smith and Jones) Their thick skin was capable of withstanding most forms of attacks and their ears were capable of selective hearing.

The Hath

Hath were a humanoid race with purple and orange fish-like skin and a small headcrest running along the top of their heads. They were slightly taller than most Near-Humans. They breathed nutrient liquid rather then air and thus when in a human-breathable atmosphere they used a breathing structure attached to their mouth.

The Sontarans

The Sontarans were humanoids with large, bulbous heads and short stocky bodies. They had grey-brown skin and deep set features. Sontarans generally had three digits on each hand (two fingers and a thumb). (DW: The Two Doctors) Some Sontarans also had vestigial hair, generally in the form of beards, which grew white with age. (NA: Shakedown) Sontaran blood was green.

The Slitheen.

The Slitheen were from Raxacoricofallapatorius orginally, until they were given with the death sentence should they return. Following this, in March 2006 they disguised themselves as various Humans holding leadership positions and attempted to seize control of the UK government and attempted to start a nuclear war. Their ultimate aim was to turn the Earth into a huge nuclear reactor pile and sell its remains off as starship fuel.

The Ood.

The Ood were a humanoid species with coleoid tentacles on the lower portions of their faces. They have no vocal chords and instead communicated by telepathy. This telepathy is perceived as song. They were originally a hive mind led by the Ood Brain. This kept control of the two brains in each Ood (a forebrain embedded in their body, and a secondary hindbrain connected by an umbilical cord-like connection to their faces, usually held in their hands). The hindbrain enabled them to connect to a single large brain, which coordinated individual Ood.

The Pyrovile

Pyroviles were humanoids with a rock-based form with a magma interior. They were able to shoot flames out of their mouths, which could easily turn a Human to ashes in seconds. They could be killed by sufficient quantities of water, their internal heat being snuffed out and their bodies solidifying. They were tall beings, reaching up to about 10 metres in height and resembling oversized Roman soldiers. Pyroviles came in two varieties - a shorter, easily-destroyed "Foot Soldier" and more advanced, fully grown Pyroviles, which could reach over twice this height.

Adipose

The Adipose reproduced on Nursery Worlds. When on Earth, the Adipose's development was started when a pill from Adipose Industries was ingested. The young Adipose would grow, collecting fat from around the body. Every night, the Adipose would then be born and leave the body. They could convert other material into fat; however, this practice was not good for their health. Alternative materials included the bones, organs, muscles and many other Human tissues. In emergencies, this was used to dispose of people by turning them completely into Adipose.

The Doctor.
The Tenth Doctor is the tenth incarnation of the fictional character known as the Doctor seen on screen in the long-running BBC television science-fiction series Doctor Who. He is played by David Tennant, who replaced Christopher Eccleston's Ninth Doctor in the 2005 series finale, "The Parting of the Ways".
