** The Nun admits that she is not really sure which number incarnation of the Monk she is supposed to be. By this point, both her and her past incarnations (and persumably some future ones), have messed so much around with both their own personal timeline and the universe's at large, that large portions of it have effectively been lost in the mess.

** This may have gotten explained in [[spoiler: Dalek Universe 1]] as they claim that because of their disregard for the laws of time bits of their lives got erased and they can't remember what came first and what didn't.

* TimeyWimeyBall: By the time [[spoiler:the Monk becomes the Nun]], the Monk’s timeline has become so complicated that this incarnation notes that they’ve basically erased parts of their own lives with their time meddling, making it hard for them to be sure which of their incarnations came before or after the others or even what order they experienced certain events in.

[[folder:Prince Kylo, [[spoiler:AKA Lord Tenebris]].]]
-> '''Voiced by:''' George Rainsford, James Wilby
The last surviving prince of the Sorsha family, Prince Kylo was subject to an arranged marriage with Princess Aliona to end the war between their two families, but his life went wrong from that point onwards.

*AchievementsInIgnorance: Kylo apparently saved himself from being thrown out of a shuttle in low orbit by instinctively using his telekinesis to slow his descent until he landed.
*AnArmAndALeg: Kylo’s right hand was cut off by Aliona.
*BatmanGambit: By the time of “The Shadow Heart”, Kylo has worked out why the Wrath are hunting him and the Doctor, and attempts to use that to pursue his own agenda.
*CyberneticLimbs: Kylo uses an artificial right hand as Lord Tenebris; the Doctor spotted this hand because he noticed that it reacted a microsecond behind his left one.
*FacialHorror: After over two decades on a distant planet, Kylo’s face suffered serious damage from the subtle acid in the atmosphere.
*IHatePastMe: Kylo/Tenebris often dismisses his past self as a foolish young man.
*InTheBlood: Kylo has the ability of pyrokinesis, which occasionally manifests in the royal line.
*NeverMyFault: Kylo often blames the Doctor for what has happened to his life, when Kylo created the Wrath and started his rampage on his own, and the only thing the Doctor did was save Kylo’s life before they learned that Kylo’s fiancé was a complete psychopath who never actually loved him.
*PerfectlyArrangedMarriage: Kylo thought he had this with Aliona, but it turned out that she was lying.
*PlayingWithFire: Kylo can set himself and other objects on fire when suitably enraged. Initially this power is relatively uncontrolled, but by “The Shadow Heart” he can control this power more appropriately.
*RoaringRampageOfRevenge: By the time of “Acheron Pulse”, Kylo has spent the last five years on a rampage across the galaxy to get revenge for what happened to him.
*ThrownOutTheAirlock: Kylo was subjected to this by Aliona, which left him trapped on an isolated planet for over two decades.
*WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Kylo is driven to his more ruthless actions by a traumatising chain of circumstances that include his entire family being killed because he fell in love with the wrong girl.

* NotSoDifferent: From Five. Five really, really tries his best to help Omega.



* NotSoDifferent: The main point of his character -- he invokes this trope against the Doctor every chance he gets.

[[folder:Madam Kovarian]]
->'''Voiced by:''' Frances Barber (2018)

The head of a renegade chapter of the Church of the Papal Mainframe, Madame Kovarian is still consumed by her desire to kill the Doctor to prevent the Siege of Trenzalore. To this end, she attempts to kill the Fifth Doctor using a new ‘generation’ of clones of River.

* AbusiveParents: River explicitly calls Kovarian out on her attempt to raise a new generation of ‘clones’ from River’s DNA to be assassins even when she should realise that the original plan to kill the Doctor has failed.
* CallingTheOldManOut: River takes every opportunity to criticise how she raised ‘Melody Pond’, to say nothing of how Kovarian continues to abuse the rest of the proto-Time Lords she has created.
* EntitledBastard: By the time her plans have shifted their focus to killing the Fifth Doctor, Kovarian has convinced herself that she is the universe’s savior even as a fleet of ships are tracking her as the apparent source of a current reality-destroying temporal paradox that must have been the result of the Fifth Doctor’s death.
* ItsAllAboutMe: Kovarian is so consumed by her vendetta against the Doctor that she has convinced herself that killing the Fifth Doctor is justified to stop the risk of the Eleventh’s alleged destruction, ignoring all the worlds that will die without the intervening Doctors to save them and dismissing them as a ‘lesser sacrifice’ to what would happen if the Doctor was left alive.
* MovingTheGoalposts: Even after the apparent death of the Doctor, Kovarian refuses to let the remaining proto-Time Lords out into the universe, still talking as though there are more missions even though the primary mission was to kill the Doctor and she believes that has already been accomplished.
* NeverMyFault: Kovarian is completely unable to acknowledge that the Doctor is the true savior of the universe, insisting that she is the one who saved the universe even as a fleet of ships start tracking her vessel as the source of a reality-destroying paradox after she apparently killed the Fifth Doctor.
* RenegadeSplinterFaction: Acknowledges that she was excommunicated from the Church of the Papal Mainframe, but seems to have convinced herself that she will be invited back after successfully killing the Doctor (ignoring how reality has already started to collapse without him there to save the universe from his fifth body onwards).
* TimeyWimeyBall: She has sent assassins after the Fifth Doctor after her plans to kill the Eleventh failed.

* OmnidisciplinaryScientist: Downplayed and justified. She displays extensive medical knowledge in "A Thousand Tiny Wings" despite, as the Doctor notes, she was someone who had been working on time travel so her Doctorate would presumably have been in physics. She explains that she requalified since they first met and she has had roughly a decade to do so.

* RunningGag: People keep ransacking his TARDIS. So far, this has included the Doctor, Missy and George Sheldrake. He tried to get aroud this by fiddling with the controls to make sure they would only respond to him, but Missy, in trying to force the TARDIS to obey her, only managed to include herself in the "necessary pilots" list - without removing the Monk.
