⍢ CHARACTER INFORMATION ⍢
Name: Starling
Gender: Determined by regeneration.
Age: Old, but young by Time Lord standards.
Occupation: Traveler; Time Patroller
Height: 4’11”
Appearance:
Personality: Quirk city! Being a Time Lord capable of viewing their lives as wibbly wobbly timey wimey, Starling counts nothing out. She’s still very wet behind the ears, so keeping her cool under pressure probably won’t happen for a while. However, she’s quick to blend in with the crowd in the place or time she’s currently frequenting, though she dearly loves being able to display her own unique style if she can get away with it. Starling is a perky and peculiar girl (at the moment), displaying unabashed wonder at new things and boundless enthusiasm to explore and excel at her job. In a way, she’s bird-like in her energy and mannerisms, her words coming out in nothing more than quick chirps when she’s excited. The tuft of hair on the top of her head toward the back that always sticks up has been affectionately called her ‘tail feathers’ by her peers, though she prefers to think of it like pineapple leaves.
History:
Starling is freshly trained as a Time Patroller. Orders from Gallifrey sent her to Skiagis on her first lone mission. It seems someone on the planet is attempting to mess with time for their own gain, and she’s there to discover who it is, why they are doing it, and potentially stop them and repair any damage done. After arriving in her TARDIS in Mistere, she decides this city is as good as any to begin her search, scanning any and all things with her sonic spear.
⍢ SPECIES INFORMATION ⍢
Name of Species: Time Lord
{CLICK HERE for Appearance, Culture, and Origin}
Baseline Dimension: Despite being Aliens Time Lords have the base build as humans, though tend to be more sleek.
Baseline Appearance: Appearance varies from Time Lord to Time Lord. Endless possibilities. However one thing sets them apart from humans. Time Lords have two hearts, and a slightly larger brain. They are also capable of changing eye color.
Culture/Origin of Species: Time Lords are a type of alien species hailing from their home planet of Gallifrey. They were the first to gain the knowledge of time and how it works, building off of it to create an empire and the technology to tame it. From this empire they look after the Time Vortex, undoing damage that other species attempt to inflict upon it for their own gain. While inherently being pacifists they are not afraid to start wars in order to keep time balanced. Young Time Lords, once they meet a certain age of incubation in the nurseries, enter either the Academy or the Army. The ones that enter the army are known as Time Patrollers, tasked with accepting missions from the council and ensuring the safety of the Time Vortex. While Academy students eventually graduate and travel to progress the planet's knowledge of the universe. Any Time Lords who enter neither become regular citizens of the planet.

Traits:
• Having two hearts, Time Lords gain a +1 to Vitality, while also if one heart is injured in any way the second heart can sustain their body by itself until it is healed.
• Because their brain is more advanced than a human's Time Lords have entered the point in gaining minor telekinesis and telepathy powers.
• Time Lords have mastered regeneration. When a Time Lord is injured their body begins a regeneration process that heals their ailment in a matter of minutes. However if they gain a fatal injury their regeneration is dialed up and their entire body regenerates, giving them a new body with new appearances. This way they can live practically forever.
• All Time Lords, being exposed to the Time Vortex's energy all their lives, gain a vague sense of events that has happened and will happen within the universe. They cannot, however, gain specific information from this.
• Time Lord's bodies are rather tough, storing all their knowledge and power into one being. They gain a +1 to Resilience and can withstand harsh conditions (freezing cold, vacuum of space, high pressure, extreme heat) for about 6 minutes, only suffering minor consequences such as blindness.
• A Time Lord's real weapon is their vast knowledge and wisdom. They gain a +1 to Speed, as their mind processes things very quickly.
• With their minds so far advanced, so are their senses. A Time Lord's senses are 10x more powerful than a human's.
Flaws:
• Telekinesis and Telepathy powers are limited to a fifty feet radius, and they cannot lift more with their mind than they can physically.
• If an injury is serious enough a Time Lord will enter a comatose state while their body heals, a state that can last from 48 hours to an entire week depending.
• Unlike what many may think, Time Lords are unable to interfere with events embedded within history by law. If this is broken serious punishment is ensured.
