* EightiesHair: She has a mohawk; justified as she's part of a group that is reviving a "retro" musical style and look.

to:

* DarkerAndEdgier: Downplayed. Much the way the Twelfth Doctor is this trope to most of his previous incarnations, she's tougher than usual for a companion when introduced and comes from a rougher milieu. She's certainly a long way from Clara Oswald, her predecessor in the TARDIS. But she's as good-hearted and brave as any companion's ever been, and notably seems to have an easier time warming up to Twelve than most people he encounters (though part of this might just be his CharacterDevelopment since his debut).
* EightiesHair: She has a close-cropped mohawk; justified as she's part of a group that is reviving a "retro" musical style and look.


Added DiffLines:

* TheQuincyPunk: Subverted -- she may have a mohawk, tattoos, and ragged clothing, and can hold her own in a scrum, but she is also kind, intelligent, quick-witted, and a genuinely gifted musician.

[[/folder: Hattie]]
!!!Hattie (Twelfth Doctor}
Introduced in Year Two, this punk rock musician of the 41st century is a human resident of the gigantic space station/colony known as The Twist. As a huge fan of her group The Space Pirates the Twelfth Doctor, traveling alone post-"Hell Bent", attends one of their early concerts there only for him ''and'' her to be swept up in a crisis involving an accused murderer. They end up working together to reveal the truth about a WainscotSociety that exists alongside the human one. With her bass destroyed in the course of the adventure, the Doctor offers both to replace it and to take her on ''just one'' trip in the TARDIS...

* EightiesHair: She has a mohawk; justified as she's part of a group that is reviving a "retro" musical style and look.
* JumpedAtTheCall: Doesn't hesitate to take up the Doctor's offer of a trip in the TARDIS, suspecting that his existence must be a lonely one.
* PunkRock: She and her group are part of a revivalist punk rock movement of the far future.

* ShoutOut: Their name is a Shout Out to the [[SpellMyNameWithAThe naming pattern]] of "[[HiredGuns freelancers]]" in ''ComicBook/{{Saga}}''.
* WritingAroundTrademarks: The Then And The Now is quite blatantly a Franchise/FactionParadox member from a legally distinct portion of the expanded universe.

Another new companion in Year Two, she fought alongside the War Doctor in the Time War. And that's all that she or anyone else seems to know.


Added DiffLines:

* AmnesiacHero: She can remember hardly anything of her own past except that she was the War Doctor's companion and ally. She is still under the impression that she's a teenager, despite appearing to be in her seventies or so.
* BloodKnight: She very firmly believes that WarIsGlorious.
* ButchLesbian: In the [[CastFullOfGay tradition]] of comics-medium original female companions, she's a tough warrior woman who quickly plants a very non-chaste kiss on Alice in a "glad to be alive" moment.
* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: Her memory issues are quite heartbreakingly reminiscent of real-world dementia.
* NeverMessWithGranny: She's quite elderly but still pretty dangerous.
