- ―The Doctor in LEGO Dimensions
The Doctor is a LEGO Dimensions minifigure that will be released in 2015.
Background
The Doctor is a Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey who stole a Type 40 TARDIS (a living machine that can travel through time and space) to explore the universe. However, The Doctor often ran into trouble, and despite his people's non-interference policy, The Doctor often acted against evil and tried to protect those who needed assistance. In many instances, before he dies, he goes through regeneration, a Time Lord ability which changes his personality and his genetic makeup and allows him to survive near-death experiences. To date, there have been thirteen different unique incarnations of The Doctor. However, for one incarnation during the Time War, he forwent going by the name of The Doctor.
First Doctor
The First Doctor was, by his own statement, the "original" incarnation of the Doctor. Holding himself in high regard, he was prone to criticizing those whom he felt were naïve or primitive compared to his intellect. However, he possessed compassion, warmth, and wit that made up for his egocentric nature, serving to act as a mentor and guardian figure in his elderly years. Originally a very difficult and curmudgeonly person, the First Doctor matured from an apparent selfishness and became more inviting. His happier, kinder characteristics fostered when he began to acquire an entourage of companions to accompany him throughout the wonders of the fourth dimension and learned to be a caregiver with a sense of justice in a universe afflicted by evils. He regenerated from old age after battling the Cybermen.
Second Doctor
Though outwardly warm, bumbling, and clownish, the Second Doctor also had a darker, more cunning and manipulative aspect to his personality — one which he usually kept hidden in order to carry out his plans. This incarnation was also the first to use the Sonic Screwdriver and enjoyed playing the recorder. He was forced to regenerate and was exiled to Earth by the Time Lords, who captured him and put him on trial for breaking their laws of non-interference.
Third Doctor
The Third Doctor was exiled by the Time Lords on Earth for a significant period of his life. The technological limits of the time period, and the constraints of his exile, often made him frustrated and bitter. However, he retained his endearing compassion toward his human companions. This Doctor worked for UNIT as their unpaid scientific adviser, and remained in their service after his exile was ended. Unlike his earlier incarnations, he was quite willing to engage others physically, and cut a more dashing figure. He regenerated from radiation poisoning after battling the spiders of Metebelis 3.
Fourth Doctor
Filled with wanderlust and a renewed curiosity towards exploring time and space, the Fourth Doctor left all ties of his previous incarnation's exile behind on Earth, setting off to travel the Cosmos. He had a thing for long scarfs and yo-yos, and would often offer people jelly babies, even his enemies. He was also the first Doctor to meet Davros, creator of the Daleks. He regenerated after falling from a radio telescope.
Fifth Doctor
With his young looks, the Fifth Doctor expressed an interest in things associated with Victorian and Edwardian England: cricket, tea, fair play, good manners, and a keen interest in science and exploration. He was also a sensitive and profusely humane incarnation who did not make himself an imposition, preferring to be honest, reserved, and honorable. However, the Fifth Doctor was also less willing to do what he thought was immoral, and became highly conflicted about what choices he could make in a crisis that were truly right. His hesitancy made him seemingly more fallible than many other incarnations, making those around him wonder if he was capable of resolving difficult situations. Nevertheless, he was one of the most overtly fearless incarnations, and frequently found himself right in the thick of battle. He regenerated after being poisoned by spectrox toxaemia and giving his share of the antidote to save his companion.
Sixth Doctor
Arrogant, dramatic, self-absorbed, driven and stubborn, the Sixth Doctor instantly believed himself superior to almost anyone he encountered. He would often browbeat others into submission with his savage wit and his grammarian's interest in language. Even so, his mercurial and flippant tendencies did not define the true heart of his persona. Beneath his thunderous and turbulent exterior, he was quite the opposite: a passionate, warm, virtuous and empathic individual. He regenerated after the TARDIS crashed after being shot down by rival Time Lord, The Rani.
Seventh Doctor
Originally a man with the demeanour of an eccentric, light-hearted buffoon, the Seventh Doctor darkened into a mysterious, cunning manipulator to properly combat the return of ancient evil entity, Fenric. Though he delighted in humorous reverie, it was only the surface layer of his true nature. Beneath, he was a Machiavellian genius of frightful calibre who tactfully used his mind to control nearly all situations into reaching his personal favoured outcome. Despite this, he could also show profound warmth and affection to his companions, and built a strong bond with many of them. He regenerated after being shot by a gang in San Francisco and undergoing failed surgery to save him.
Eighth Doctor
The Eighth Doctor was an optimist and a romantic, and had many adventures with his friends. This Doctor tried to remain a cheerful and pacifistic adventurer in spite of a universe that grew ever increasingly hostile around him, eventually culminating in the eruption of the Last Great Time War between the Time Lords and the Dalek Empire. Despite his efforts to stay out of the war and help out its victims out where he could, the Doctor eventually chose to regenerate with the help of the Sisterhood of Karn, into the body of a warrior.
War Doctor
Originally young and robust, the War Doctor set upon the warrior path for which he had been intended, and disavowed the name of "the Doctor", although the Time Lords and Daleks continued to refer to him by that name. After becoming old and tired of battle and faced with the end of reality, The Doctor considered activating the Moment, to end the Time War by wiping out both the Daleks and his own people. However, the Moment's sentient interface led him down a different path by letting him view his future first-hand. By teaming up with his later selves, his mind was opened to a heroic way to end the Time War by saving Gallifrey, although he forgot he had done so, as meeting his future selves caused instability in his timeline. He was technically the ninth incarnation. He regenerated from old age after saving Gallifrey.
Ninth Doctor
The Ninth Doctor was the direct survivor of the Last Great Time War, but left the conflict with the excruciating (but false) knowledge of his hand in its grisly conclusion. Now cut off from the Time Lord race, The Doctor found himself alone and bereaved. Emotionally haunted by the war, he entered a darker period of his life spattered by resentment, where he tended to brood and act crossly to those who rubbed him the wrong way. Despite this, he remained jovial and quite friendly towards anyone he took a liking to, slowly reasserting himself as The Doctor while letting go of his lingering wartime persona. He regenerated after saving his companion by absorbing the Time Vortex from her.
Tenth Doctor
Unlike the Ninth Doctor, who was plagued by melancholy due to his actions during the Last Great Time War, the Tenth Doctor possessed an outgoing, lively and genial demeanour that hid his "survivor's guilt". For most of his incarnation, The Doctor was able to successfully project a convivial and even frivolous front. However, when he had to engage in conflict, the Tenth Doctor's energies would shift toward heroism to reveal a fiercely protective man who resolutely guarded what he held dear, and who could be viciously unforgiving to the forces that dared menace them. He used his eleventh regeneration to heal himself without changing his face after being shot by a Dalek, and later used his twelfth and final regeneration after absorbing a deadly amount of radiation.
Eleventh Doctor
The Eleventh Doctor was a gauche, capricious, emotionally unpredictable and adventurous incarnation of The Doctor, as well as the final incarnation of his original regeneration cycle. However, by this point in his life, his reputation had grown immense, attracting a new strain of conflicts. Wishing to withdraw from the dangers it created, he became a secretive and guileful individual for the sake of himself and those he held close. He had an obsession of calling different clothing items and foods cool. He engaged in a centuries-long struggle to the death against his enemies, including an assassination plot and a last stand against the Silence. He eventually began dying of old age on Trenzalore, and prepared to face the Dalek Armies. However, just in time, the Time Lords granted him a new regeneration cycle. He used the excess energy to destroy the Daleks, making himself younger in the process, and later completed his regeneration in the TARDIS.
Twelfth Doctor
The Twelfth Doctor was a darker character with a withdrawn and spiky attitude. Although this incarnation was no stranger to kindness and humour, he often dispensed with niceties in a tense situation, becoming cold and calculative in critical moments that required sound judgment and the occasional application of sharp practice. However, because of his detachment from emotions, he could come off as unpleasant, fearsome, and ruthless. He began to mellow and became friendlier, and started making efforts to be nice, even having a collection of cards with pre-written phrases to refer to in difficult situations. He also displayed a love of playing the electric guitar, and briefly replaced his Sonic Screwdriver with a pair of Sonic Sunglasses.
