'might'
The event was revealed under highly suspicious circumstances.
There's at least a 50% chance the entry is completely false.
?
The event occurred approximately in this interval.
??
A pretty wild guess as to when this event took place.
1806~ (899 AF)
(probably arround 900 years after the Doctor's re-birth / The
Time Lords exist after
150,000,000 BC / over five hundred years after the
War begins / well
before 2596 AD)
The
Last Great Time War in
Heaven ends at the Final Battle - which the Time Lords
lose. By
this point the planet Skaro has also been devestated. To prevent the Daleks
from becoming the new Lords of Time the Doctor chooses to destroy both
Gallifrey and the entire Dalek fleet
of 1,000,000 timeships. He
jettisoned the Eye of Harmony into Gallifrey's primary star,
causing a supernova that destroying
both the Time Lords and the Daleks in a single
second. Gallifrey's primary becomes a neutron star, but the blast can
still be seen when viewed from Simia KK98 in the 26th century. Unknown
to the Doctor the Dalek Emperor's timeship
is knocked into the Vortex and the Emperor alone survies. Because of the
Quantum Barrier the planet
Gallifrey is only
scorched until it is nothing but rocks and dust, barren of life. Not even the
orange sky survived. - The Time Lords have been destroyed. The ruins
of Gallifreyan buildings can still be found in 2596
AD. The
Doctor is the soul surviving Time Lord and his TARDIS is the sole
surviving Gallifreyan Timeship. They make up the entire Second
Diaspora. He claims that he
would know if any
other Time Lords
had survived.
1806~
One surviving Dalek
falls through time, and
landed on the Ascension
Islands on Earth. He spends the next several decades waiting for
orders.
1806~
(~5800 AD)
The Time
Lords cease comunicating with the Galaxy at large.
1806~
(after the death of the Time Lords)
The Laws
of Time are suspended. The walls of reality close and it becomes
virtually impossible for a
TARDIS to visit an alternate reality. The remains of the Eye of Harmony
might
eventually become the Black Hole that Omega tries to return through in
The Three Doctors. Without the Time Lords the History
becomes
vulnerable to Infinite Temporal Flux. Reapers now destroy
every world that develops a temporal paradox. Without the Time Lords to enforce the
laws of physics magical phenomenon being to appear in the
Universe.
1806~
(899~ AF)
(after
the death of Gallifrey)
The Doctor is quite
guilty ridden and depressed after destroy his home. He continues
to travel the Universe in his aging Type 40 TARDIS. The doctor believes that he
should have been able
to detect another Time Lord (even one who is out of sync) but the
Archangel Network hides the Master on Earth. So its likely that the
Doctor can detect other Time Lords from Gallifrey's past when he's in
the same time zone. But he can tell that they are from before the
War
and knows not to contact them.
NOTE: According
to He Jests at
Scars and Death Comes to Time the Doctor being the last Time Lord would
mean that he would have full access to the Power of Creation and keep
changing causality by just by looking at it. It is possible that (like Omega)
he learns to control this power or perhapse the fact that the Laws of
Time were suspended negated this affect. The fact that the Daleks
had their own Eye of Harmony might have some affect on the situation.
??
Many Time
Aware species, such as the Time Agents believe the Time War was a
legand. However a few Time Aware species know of the War and
believe that none of the Time Lords survived the Final Battle.
On the planet
Crafe Tec Heydra there is a pictoral depiction of the War and the final
battle. It shows the Doctor as the only survivor and says "You
Are Not Alone..."
| 1807
(902 AF) The Sound of Drums: The Paradox Machine lets the Master change history by bringing 6 billion Toclafane back to the 21st century so that they can invade the Earth. They begin by killing 10% of the Earth's population. The Master begins to prepare an invasion fleet of 200,000 war rockets equiped with Black Hole Converters to make an Empire of new Time Lords. 1808 (903 AF) (1 year after Sound of Drums from the Doctor's POV) The Last of the Time Lord: The Master uses his Laser Screwdriver to age the Doctor another 900 years while simultaniously preventing him from regenerating. The Master plans to begin his conquest of the Universe by opening Braccatolian Space for his war rockets. The Doctor uses the psychic energy of all the people of earth to rejuvenate himself. The Doctor forgives the Master for everything that he's done and blames himself for all of it. |
??
(The Faction Paradox Comics take place
after the end of the War)
Political
Animals: By this point Faction Paradox believe they are the only
Faction of the Time War left. They come to London in 1762 and
1774 in part to recuit new members.

"I
just remembered.
I haven't been Merlin yet!"
-The Doctor
??
(12 centuries before Battlefield from the Morgaine's POV /
~792
AD)
Aurther dies in the final battle
with the Battle-Queen of the S'rax, Morgaine. The Doctor's
dimension
ship is parked under Lake Vortigern in the N-Space universe by the
Doctor. He also builds
an underground passage way to reach it and leaves a note for his 7th
incarnation that says "Dig Hole Here." S'rax might be related to the
Sycorax. Certainly both Morgaine and the S'rax (and Factin
Paradox for that matter) all rely heavily on ritual.
??
(~792 AD)
Morgaine seals
Merlin (the Doctor) in ice caves for all eternity.
?? Merlin (the Doctor) will be stranded for 1000 years on Mount Kukoeuk on the planet Ant'ykhon.
?? In his 'youth' Mulwych (the Doctor) teaches the Charrl chronomancers to read the Time Lines and communicate telepathically. By this point he will be know as Muldwych and will become a heavy drinker.
?? Birthright: Mulwych (the Doctor) tries to help the Charrl escape Ant'ykhon and meets the Doctor in his seventh body.
??
Happy Endings: The Doctor eventually escapes Ant'ykhon using a narrow
beam of chronons aligned perfectly with a place of reality. He
expects to live for at least another 500 years.
?
(after Set Piece)
Muldwych/Doctor meets Ace in 17th
century France.
?? Merlin helps Aurthur fights the Kalichura demon Melanicus and his ally Catavolcus on the Side-Ways Earth. Merlin banished him to a dimension of darkness.
??
(after his banishment from
the Doctor's POV but before from Arthur's / ~792 AD)
The Doctor has
several adventures with Arthur in another side-ways dimension.
Arthur, Ancelyn, and Morgaine all appear to have lifespans of well over
12 centuries. During this time he still travels in TARDIS
disguised as a Police
Box. He also has a ship that crosses dimensional barriers and
responds to his voice print.
The new Doctor
??
(while working with Arthur
/ ~792 AD)
Merlin/Doctor regenerates into
the The Mulwych
Doctor. He will have red
hair, a lined and ruddy face, and will be overweight.
He also will wear the ring with the blue stone. This incarnation
lasts at least until his hair tuns white.
??
(the Doctor
experiances all the Arthur events in reverse order / ~792 AD)
The Doctor/Merlin is summoned to the Side-ways
Dimension to help Earth fight
it's last battle. He meets Arthur for the first time (from Arthur's POV). This could be part of the War in
Heaven.
??
Memories to Forget: The Doctor and a Vampire companion named Amaryllis
are captured by Tnuks, a race bred by the Time Lord to stop vampires.
??
(about 8 billion AD / 1000 years before Miranda is born)
The decendents
of a surviving male Time Lord (almost
certainly the Doctor) create a
race that is genetically identical to the Gallifreyans.
These people create the Galactic Empire.
The new Doctors (Michael Jayston)
??
(The 12th Doctor)
The Doctor is
captured by the Daleks and put
on
trial. He is exterminated and
regenerates for the eleventh time.
He splits into two different
Doctors one of
which is the Valyard. The
Valyard is a distillation of the Doctor's Dark Side. They
spend the next 100 years battling in
the a Dalek DARDIS. Afterward the victorious Doctor spends
another 100 years trying to find his TARDIS.
?? The Galactic Empire ruthlessly subjugate billions of people. They construct massive archives of genetic records, art, and technological blueprints called the Labyrinth on Savar’s Needle. Their irresponsible actions cause the deletion of large chunks of history, the evacuation of entire galaxies, and the death of millions. The Empire is ruled by the greatest of the surviors who becomes the Emperor.
?? Trial of Time Lord (The Doctor/Valyard): The Valyard is contacted by the High Council of the past. He travels back in time to prosecute his sixth incarnation in return for his remaining incarnations.
??
Mission: Impractical: The Valyard (the Doctor) will illegally sell Time
Lord technology and Vraxoin. He will hire assassins to kill the
Doctor.
??
Matrix
??
The Doctor and the Valeyard face each other in a final
confrontation. The Doctor erases the Paradox of the
Valeyard.
??
(year 0)
Miranda is born.
That same day a revolution destroys all of Miranda’s people
except the Emperor’s granddaughter, Miranda. She is hidden on
Earth in the 20th Century. Prefect Zevron’s mother of Faction
Klade starts the revolution. The Klade are
a future evolution of the Daleks. Zevron’s brother
Ferran
is born, but his mother is killed. Zevron swears to kill the
“Last
One.”
?? The day after the revolution, the factions that made up the Galactic Empire go to war with each other. The civilization of the 12 Galaxies is laid waste. There are about 1000 different factions in this war.
?? The Universe is devastated. This is caused by the Time Lords.
??
(before the Treaty o Carselie)
The Minister of Chance (aka
fnan'nan-cuh) gives into temptation and uses his forbiden powers to
save 200 million people on Alderaan from a Canisian plague. The
side effect of this use creates a
rent in time that cause the expansion of existing black holes and the
creation of numerous new ones. Many people begin looking for
the one responsible.
??
(before Death
Comes to Time)
The The
Treaty of Carselie is signed by the remaining Time Lords (Tannis
observes this in secret). According to the law of the treaty
it is
forbidden for Time
Lords to explore the universe without a traveling companion. By this point all the original Time
Lords except for Saint
Valentine, Saint Antenor, the Kingmaker, Castellan Casmus, Tannis, the
Minister of Chance, and the Doctor are gone.
Since the Time Lord Power of Creation is spread over only seven Time
Lords magnifing their abbilites by a factor of 143.
Each one weilds enough power to destroy
entire starships with a thought. The Doctor, Casmus, the
Kingmaker, and the Minister form a new Fraction and call themselves (as
the previous Fraction did) the Gods of
the Fourth. Casmus (and the Doctor)
resolve to
continue to fight evil but not to use the Power to end it.
NOTE: The god-like powers are
probably due to the fact
that (according to DCTT) the total power of the Time Lords is spread
over all their numbers. Thus if most of them are dead (as seen in
DCTT) the remaining few would have terrible god-like powers.
? The Doctor builds the android Antimony to be his permanent companion.
?? (year 10) Father Time: Miranda is adopted by the 8th Doctor.
??
(year 36) Father Time: Zevron’s brother, Ferran, ruler of the Klade
Faction tracks Miranda down. They join forces to bring order to the
future. She takes the title President of the Supreme Council,
Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Custodian of the Artifacts, and
Head of the Galactic Bank.
??
(year 36) Miranda 1-3
.
??
(After the Death of the last Time Lords)
A new
age of Balance
begins in the
Universe.
?? The Children of Kasterborous live on the Needle (Savar's TARDIS).
16,629,000~
(18,629,000 years after Rassilon seals
the Divergence
Pocket Universe)
The reality lock on the
Divergence Pocket Universe
fails and release the Divergence into Normal Space. Rassilon
plans to
confront them at this point and prevent their escape.
NOTE: The rest of the time line is in the Julian Calender (BC/AD). All dates within 10,000,000 years of the Birth of Christ take place about 3,500,000,000 years after Rassilon assumes power. This info comes from the "Christmas on a Rational Planet". Were applicable I have put the "Gallifrey" date with IR (Rassilon's Intuitive Revolution)
"Homo
sapiens. What an inventive, invincible species. Its only a
few million years since they crawled up out of the mud and learned to
walk. Puny, defenceless bipeds.
They've survived flood, famine and plague. They've survived
cosmic wars and holocausts. An now, here they are, out among
the stars, waiting to begin a new life. Ready to outsit
eternity. They're indomitable."
-The Doctor
??
The Peon Era
?? Orestian Era
~500,000,000 BC (hundreds of millions of years ago) The Gods (such as the Time Lords, Osirans Jagaroth, Construtors of Destiny, and Daemons) are quite active in the Universe at this time.
400,000,000 BC (3100,000,000~ Local
Dateline) The last of the Jagaroth
perish in an explosion that
starts life on Sol III.
?? (around the time of Homo Erectus / before 150,000,000 BC) The Constructors of Destiny modify the DNA of the Tellurians (humans) of Sol III to ensure that they develope an noncollective intelligence. They also create a twin of Sol III (Mondas) to use as a control during this experiment.
~161,000,000 BC (about two hundred millions of years ago) After a war about whether the Constructors of Destiny should build the Bophemeral the last of the Gods (except for the Constructors of Destiny) disappear.
? The People construct there Dyson Sphere and build their God.
~150,000,000 BC (eleven million years after the other Gods leave, 150 million years before 2003) The Constructors of Destiny are visited by a Time Lord from the far future (possibly the Seventh Doctor) who warns them not to compleate the project. This Time Lord is dismissed to far Gallifrey for his defiance. Kronos tells them they should compleate Bophermeral. The Midnight Cathedral is constructed by the Constructors of Destiny to honor Kronos.
~150,000,000 BC (eleven million years after the other Gods leave, 150 million years before 2003) The Constructors of Destiny finish building Bophermeral. The computer instantly becomes the Mad Mind and destroys the Constructors of Destiny. It tries to become God of the Universe. A thousand races unite (including the Daemons, Osirans Greld, Semquess, Kastrians, Exxilons, Uxariens, Sontarans, Nimon, Rutan Host, Grey Hegemony, Light) to stop the Mad Mind. This the begining of the Millennium War.
~150,001,000 BC (1000 years after the start of the Millennium War) The God of the People break there non-intervention policy and join the War effort. Rassilon and and a Time Fleet from the past also join the war. Other races that join at this point include the Masksmakers of the Pageant, the Faction Paradox, and the Ministers of Grace. The Mad Mind is imprisoned in a Time Loop. Surviving warriors meet in the Midnight Cathedral and agree to hide all knowledge of the Millennium War from themselves and the rest of the Universe. They summoned the Council of Guardians who make the Universe forget the Mad Mind and the Millennium War.
~150,000,000 BC Hand of Fear (intro)
<>~140,000,000 BC Time-Flight
45,000,000 BC
The
Silurians exist on Sol III. Sol is
located in Sector 8023 of the Third Quadrant of Mutter's Stellian
Spiral Galaxy on its inner spiral arm at the coordinates 6309.
?? BC (before human civilization) A race of tiny creatures evolve next to volcanic vents in the Mediteraniean Sea on Earth. They develop the abbility to move through the 4th Dimension of Time.
6,000,000
BC
(3,500,000,000~ Local Dateline) Tellurians (Humans) evolve on Sol
III. Human
beings are one of the few races in the Universe which has an
instinctive understanding of time travel. Because of this the
Time Lords fear the Tellurians.
?? Prophecies from the Dark Time say that the Timewyrm will devoure the first and the last of the Time Lords.
??
A Ruthless warlord builds the
massive Castle Karn
??
Most of the rebels from the Universe of the Ferutu travel
back in time and set themselves up as “gods” in the Worldsphere
of the People.
??
One group of the “gods,” the Kings of Space are worshiped
by the Sphinxes. The Sphixes feed on extradimentional
forces and excreates raw space-time. The War TARDIS's used in Taking
of Planet 5 could become the Sphinxes known as the Kings of Space.
??
The early Humanian
Era begins
??
(long before Turlough is exiled) The
Tractators invade Trion but are successfuly repelled.
400 BC (before the “gods” were on Dellah) The God of the People expels the “gods” from the World Sphere and genetically engineeres the need for “gods” out of the People. These “gods” are imprisoned on Dellah.
400 BC (3000 years before Where Angels Fear) The “gods” infulance the development of the indigenous population of Dellah.
?? The People become one of the most advanced and peacful races in the Universe. They have a population of 2 trillion beings. The Worldsphere is managed by God, a planet sized computer.
?? (over 300 years before The Also People) The People sign a treaty with the Time Lords, that states that the People will not try to develop time travel technology.
??
(After the treaty?) The Time Lords geneticaly engineer beings in the
Mutter’s Spiral so that they are time-sensitive. The chromosomes
of these beings are incompatible with the People. This is done so
that these beings can serve as an early warning system it the People
try to manipulate time.
??
(probably before the Android
Invasion) The Kraalian Era exists.
1
AD
(3489806629.2 Local Dateline) Jesus Christ is born on
Sol III. By this time
there is no sign of Gallifreyan civilization. TARDISes are
unable to enter the Constellation of Kasterborous after a certain
date. By this point the planet New Alexandria may be the
locations of the ruins of ancient Gallifrey.
1398
AD Robin Wright of Hamborn village England is
born. It is likely that he is the product of biomass
contamination between a human and a Regen-Inf solider of the Time
Lord’s House Military.
1426 AD
Robin Wright is burned at the stake for being a
witch.
??
Justine has a biodata
connection with the Web of Time. One of her Ancestors (or
descendents) might be a Time Lord.
1462
AD The Celestis becomes the first war time power on
Earth when they establish an outpost at the site of the Wallachia
called Gragov. Valad III makes contact with the Celestis
there.
1500~
AD The Order of the Dragon acquire the Head of the
Lord President of Gallifrey. They believe that the President to
be one of the first warriors who stood at the gates of Ubar/Heaven at
the dawn of the world. He was killed by the Enemy and they Order
was charged with holding the Head until it was returned to Ubar at the
end of the Universe.
1550? AD
(during the
1500s) Stattenheim and Waldorf construct a working TARDIS.
~1750
AD The Tellurians Stattenheim
and Waldorf create a working grey-print for a TARDIS.
??
J.S. Bach inspired to begin his
great compositions by Professor Chronotis who provides him with samples
of the Jaggaroth’s block transfer music.
??
J.S. Bach is given a taste of the block
transfer mathematics that governs ever event in the universe by
Professor Chronotis. Using this Bach created the Musical Offering
contains the code and tones necessary to enter the Eleven Day
Empire. To do this the music had to be programmed into Babbage’s
Analytical Engine.
1834 AD
J.S. Bach composes the
Musical Offering for the Star
Chamber as a way of breaching the Eleven Day Empire. This canon
per tonos (aka the Endlessly Rising canon) serves as a generic key to
breaching non-worlds.
1883
AD The Time Lord Marnal is dropped of in England with his
memory deleated. Penelope Gate's mother cares for him.
Marnal takes on the name Marnal Gate and begins writing novels that
chronical the
history of the planet Gallifrey. Most, (but not all) will be
published.
??
(before the 20th century)The Humanian Era
begins. By this point
Earth will be a cosmic dumping ground for exiles from all over the
Universe (the Time Lords included).
1900~?? AD
Professor Aaron Blinovitch solves the Agathon
equations. This causes
him to age in reverse. Aaron
Blinovitch’s timestream overlaps. A younger and older version of
him both live in Russia. The older one lives in St.
Petersburg. The younger one dies because of his stolen
theories. Professor Aaron
Blinovitch, will become a member of Faction Paradox.
1928 AD?? (the year 1928)
The
famous Russian Human? Time Lord scientist,
Aaron
Blinovitch,
develops and later publishes his
famous Limitaiton Effect in Temporal Mechanics in the British Museum's reading room in
1928. He also invents a primitive
time machine known as a Chronal Displacer.
1945 AD~ The Humans of Sol
III develop postmodernism.
1950
AD~ (the 20th Century)
By this point the
Trions have agents on every civilised planet.
??
AD
Marnal Gate writes an episode of Star Trek but the in house writers
change the story so much that he has his name removed.
1970 AD~
The Three Doctors: The Black
Hole that
Omega tries to return through might be the one he created.
1975
AD
Richard Macduff starts college under Professor
Chronotis.
1977
AD
Richard finishes college
under Professor Chronotis.
1979 AD Svlad Cjelli (Dirk
Gently) is at St. Cedd's and meets
Professor
Chronotis.
?
(before
Zagreus)
By this point Braxiatel has returned to Gallifrey
and become a
Lord Cardinal on the High Council. He is head of
Watchtower Command on Gallifrey.
1981 AD (3,503,414,370.119 Relative Date)
1981
AD Logopolis: The
Master stops the Block Transfer Computation on Logopolis which causes
the Universe to begin dying of heat death. Vast amounts of stars
are extingished before the Doctor and the Master stabilize the only
remaining Charged Vacuum Embodiment in the constellation
Cassiopeia. This stops the destruction of the Universe. The
Doctor is forced to regenerate for the fourth time.
1987 AD
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency: Chronotis's
TARDIS breaks down
.
1988 AD
The Long Dark Tea Time
of the Soul.
1996
AD (about 3,000,000,000
years after launch)
The Time Lord Warship arrives at
Earth.
1997 AD By this point a Time Lord (probably not the Doctor) is working as MI6's scientific advisor.
??
Earth begins to suffer from
numerous random explosions.
These explosions are caused by Time Ships who are targeting points in
space time that could have had great significance in the future.
The
people killed in these explosions are (probably by design) largely
removed from the cultural context of Humanity. Thus (by
definition)
nobody important is ever killed. Thus their actions (even before
their
deaths) don't matter.
1999
AD? (shortly before This Town
Will Never Let Us Go) a Timeship probably "crashes" on earth and is
buried beneath a town.
Michael Brookhaven and Chris Cwej
1999 AD After several billion years the original Ancestor Cells end up on Earth. They feeds on the chronon decay created by various Time Travel Capsules and various temporal paradoxes that pollute the Web of Time. This pollution allows the cells to grow into a "race" that is completely alien and inimical to the Time Lords. The Ancestor Cells are drawn to Gallifrey by I.M. Foreman's Universe-in-a-Bottle. The Time Lords will spend much of the Last Great Time War beleiving that this Ancestor Cells are the Enemy.
1999 AD (9/3/03 or 1999 AD)2000 AD
(3,503,414,398.9 Relative Time)
The end of the 20th
century.
2001
AD This Town
Will Never Let Us Go: Anthropological
Predictions show that Humanity was on the verge of evolving into a
non-linear time-active culture capable of processing entire universes
of information called Homo Imago. This is called The Younger
World Theory. Humans and
Gallifreyans are the only races whose cultures can not be accurately
predicted by these projections. Humanity
would have had a field of comprehension
larger then the Time Lord’s Noosphere. It might have made them travlers
in the 6th and 7th dimensions of Possibility and Imagination.
The human named Valentine is working for the one of the Higher Powers
(probably the Enemy) and plans on destroying a Timeship that crashed on
earth. The Great Houses deploy a Ghost Cluster device on him
(almost certainly to stop him from detonating the bomb). Despite
this the Timeship is still accidentally destroyed. An unexpected
side effect of this is that Humanity misses its first opportunity to
achieve its conversion into Homo Imago. Instead of making that
leap humanity slides into a state of virtual cultural and technological
stasis for at least the next 10,000,000 years. Rumors suggest
that this stasis
might have been arranged by the Time Lords, possibly using the Jallama
Reed and New Young God’s Transmissions.
2001 AD The later Humanian Era begins.
