Who Was Rassilon? (Doctor Who)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 тра 2017
- Who was the Timelord President we see in the Doctor Who series? Well Rassilon is old, even for a Timelord and among the myriad of titles and honorifics is the story of the rise to power of the greatest Gallifreyan mind and the downfall of a despot.
This is a more in-depth analysis of the character from various sources including books, audio and as well as the TV sources. The continuity may be spread all over the place but a solid image of the character still emerges.

Imagine, spending hours and hours of pre production, research, editing and recording this video, only for season 12 to happen
i and many others refuse to accept anything after capaldi as canon. chibnal crapped on 50+ years of history. whats worse is they ( whoever is in charge of approving scripts and stories ) allowed his travesties to be put on film. i hoping that SOMEONE over there will come to their senses and erase all his nonsense. hell, at this point i'd welcome moffat back even though his writings were often pointlessly convoluted and nonsensical.
until then, for us at least, capaldi was the last Doctor.
Nah fam stop it season 12 didn't happen. It's gonna be non cannon. Right ? RIGHT!? 😭
@@omega311888 I agree with your statement my friend, and you do have to admit though when it comes to crafting multi season long plot threads. Steven Moffitt was definitely top tier at doing so.
tHe TiMeLeSs ChIlD.
@@omega311888 No, The Doctor died in season 12 for me. It's just sad that this is where we are.
Poor Omega, he wasn’t bad, he basically invented time travel. He just went mad from being trapped in a alternate dimension.
Well, he is basically anti-matter god now.
@@jeckjeck3119 similar abilities are associated with the Swarm? Huh.
It’s interesting how the timelords used titles instead of names, the doctor, the master, and the general being an example
The Rani too but there’s time lords like Morbius and Borusa them keeping their real names as titles though
@C0nvict_pLeB17 Stand back Doctor! I am beginning to Morb.
I'm glad Dalton took the role. The venom and passion he put into it went over the top.
"On your knees mankind!". Still gives me goosebumps.
“YOULL DIE WITH ME, DOCTOR!!!”
Timothy Dalton commanded presence in The End of Time. He's a fine actor.
I WILL NOT…DIE!!!
Dalton is the best of all of the Rassilons.
"Who knows, he might get converted into a Cyberman"
CHIBNAL WATCHES CERTIFIABLY INGAME CONFIRMED!
But wasn't Rassilon exiled by then (events of the timeless children) meaning he's one of the very few survivors? Then again somehow Gallifrey moved back into a pocket dimension after being located near the distant end of the time stream for its own protection so CHIBNAL either skipped over who knows how much plot or just ignored/removed/pretended it didn't happen... Maybe he stole the recipe for RETCON from Captain Jack (& Torchwood Three)
@@zyme5998 No it's made clear in Hell Bent that Gallifrey leaves the pocket universe, they just wait until all their enemies go extinct and then jump on out. When The Master talks about Gallifrey's Pocket Universe, he just means them being at the end of the universe.
@@CyberController- That would make more sense, but the only reason I can think of for him calling 'a place in the universe near the end of the timestream' a pocket universe is to just to lump it in with (s)he's cuckoo for coco puffs why should we expect what the Master says to make sense? Course why should we believe anything the master says anyway...
Honestly I was kinda expecting the cybermen to turn on the master and make him an cyberpunk as well.
They did that with everyone else human shaped they worked with as far as I remember
@@zyme5998 actually not quite the main defense of galifrey the transduction barrier places galifrey in a pocket universe out of sync with the rest of the universe so that anything the timelords don't won't thrh can't get thru.
"Or he may get himself converted into a cyberman..."
Yeah... About that.
I love it!
I'd love to see a Game of Thrones style show set in the Whoniverse simply called "Gallifrey" and would basically take everything talked about in this video and turn it into a big budget TV series.
The trick would be to distinguish it from Game of Thrones to prevent it from just riding on its coat tails.
well we already know the ending to it, the doctor escaping and the daleks are basically the white walkers of this universe (except less pathetic)
Doctor Who's kill count must be wayy larger then GoTs 😂😂
The idea sounds good, maybe as a mini series. The writing would need to be tight especially in light of last season. Or it could end up like the BSG spin-off based on the creation of the Cylon, the name of which I've completely repressed, apparently.
Big Finish productions audio play - "Gallifrey". The play is all about the internal politics of Gallifrey and its CIA (Celestial Intervention Agency).
Kinda pissed they made Rassilon such a pushover in Hell Bent after he was so awesome in the Tennant era.
Wintermute01001 0
Moffat is ruining Capaldi's Doctor Who. Best episode of this series was the ones with Missy and The Master. Capaldi's first season was much better. I think Missy and Master should stay live though.
It's likely the Time Lords restored him to life with concessions or handicap.
Remember he was also embarrassingly defeated in Tennant's Era, losing the trust of the Time Lords. Underneath his menace, Rassilon was a coward and it all began to show as he cracked in Hell Bent. The Time Lords respected the Doctor as the one who truly lead them to greatness, and like any despot, Rassilon whinged about wanting his power back and thus was exiled.
It makes sense, as Rassilon failed to save his people and the Doctor did, so they'd be more likely to trust him.
"The anger of a good man is not a problem. Good men have too many rules."
Good men don't need rules. Today is not the day to find out why the Time Lords have so many.
He doesn't say time lords though he clearly says "I have so many"
@@extraplain2412 He wasn't talking about the Doctor...
And during the Last Great Time War the Time Lords broke too many....
Take a strong shot of alcohol every time Timothy Dalton's Rassilon walks toward camera in this video (lol).

As a long time whovian, I've had a load of tis stuff rattling around in my head for a long time. But when I try to explain it all out to someone, I get lost in the 'muddled continuity' (A slight miss-quote).
This was amazing! I don't think such a concise and well sourced essay on this exists anywhere else.
You've woven 'canon' and 'non-canon', and even 'semi-canon' into probably the clearest whole picture of Rassilon there has been.
I am SERIOUSLY impressed mate, for whatever little that may mean.
He was James Bond once, so there is that.
Would that not be interesting if Bond was a time lord? had many faces.
Jeanette Carnell he is
He was the 'Don't fuck with me' Bond, should have had a better run imo (also he's a slasher, a slasher of prices)
Schwatvogel he didn't age very well clearly!
And Malcolm Murray.
An interesting tidbit about the Vampires. If one of us entered their universe we could feed off their life forces like they would ours in our universe.
Wait so the virus is an interdimensional virus which feeds off the lifeforce of beings in another universe and funnels it back to the timelord?
The word is TITBIT

Did Rick know 2 years ago about the Master's plan to turn timelords into Cyber timelords
There is another major event in Rassilon's life that is often overlooked, which is told in the Eighth Doctor Audio Adventures. During the earlier days in which time travel was being developed, and regeneration was being developed, Rassilon foresaw a future in which an alien race would eventually surpass the Time Lords in their technology, and take control. Refusing to accept this, he released a virus, similar to that which gave the Time Lords regeneration, but repurposed it so that all life would eventually evolve into the Gallifreyan norm. Anything that didn't evolve to this state was sealed within a universe of looped time. Within this pocket of reality, time didn't function on a linear cycle, existing as a loop, which would start with life emerging, and then being culled some twenty to thirty thousand years, before restarting. He then tried to use the Doctor to create a weapon made from "Anti-Time" to finish off the divergent universe once and for all, creating the monster of Gallifreyan myth, Zagreus. This failed, however, as Zagreus was convinced by the Doctor to not side with Rassilon, and throw him into the Divergent universe to face his enemies directly.
It is safe to assume that this is canon, as it was the Divergent World of Bortesoye where the Doctor befriended a Eutermesan named C'rizz, who he names when he is about to drink the Elixir of Life in Night of the Doctor.
If i may, it seems certain creatures tend to be more true to nature as in their nature. Probably some try to use that as a weapon for personal gain. When the Doctor spoke them they realized they were being played. So my thoughts are somthing like ' You just played us. THAT ALONE is all i need to deal with you.
Some name-dropping doesn't make something canon. The C'rizz mentioned in the mini-sode could have been almost a totally different character.
Simon Foston but why would the writers use the name that is associated with the eight doctor, yet not actually mean that character. Your argument is obtuse.
@@eccremocarpusscaber5159 Cam Bar Perhaps I should have said an alternate version of that character. It's not unprecedented. No one assumes, for instance, that Arthur Dent in the Hitch Hiker's radio series is supposed to be exactly the same character as the Arthur Dent from the novels. The First Doctor, Ian, Barbara and Susan in the novelisation of "The Daleks" are all noticeably different from the characters in the TV serial. No reason to suppose those characters the Eighth Doctor talked about couldn't be TV counterparts rather than the exact same ones from the audios. It's not as if any of the actors make any appearances.
Well, so much for this.
No, Chibnall Who isn’t canon, I think we’ve decided,
Basically all of this is unchanged. Don't get me wrong, I didn't like The Timeless Children, but all it really changed was a few relatively minor details (and placed the Doctor in the background of the story) but pretty much everything else is the same.
@@somerandomguy2073 yeah I think the idea is that everything Rassilon did still happened but a lot more was going on too. Even though they might’ve became aware of regeneration due to the Timeless Child, the true source of regeneration, being exposure to the time vortex and the cells/virus that was developed by Time lord scientists (potentially using the Timeless Child’s DNA) would be where he learnt the true origin of regeneration and decided to dictate it.
I guess we know who Thremix is now. Can't remember her name, but the woman who found the Timeless Child and got that sweet juicy regeneration dna from it.
Even the Doctor had respect for Rassilon, until the atrocities he committed in the Time War (like warping Borusa into the possibility engine) made the Doctor despise him. Even what he did to his old friend Omega and what happened with the Other as well. Makes total sense that he regenerated into a whiney twat by 'Hell Bent.'
Ah no! I had no idea Borusa was one of the retro-evolved! No wonder the Doctor made it seem personal.
Borusa was the successful experiment and considering the Doctor's history with Borusa - him being his teacher at the academy - no wonder the Doctor acted the way he did to Rassilon. Read Engines of War for more details
He turned Borusa into the Possibility Engine, which could somehow see all timelines across all universes despite time being totally screwed.
I always wondered if rassilon was the doctor's father along with the Master
Vesra well, “the other” who was the third member of the group of Rassilon and Omega has always been hinted to be the Doctor. But am interesting thought!
Omega was such a cool villain though.
NOTHE I'm by no means am expert, but if your achievements (both bad and good) is harnessing the power of a dying star for effectively infinite power, how are you a bad guy? Sure he had bad friends, but one of even the most loved US President's family made their money bootlegging during prohibition. (JFK)
Greater98er You may want to watch the Three Doctors...
@Greater98er
Omega (pronounced OH-meh-gah) became increasingly militaristic when Rassilon wished to undertake retrenchment. Indeed, his empowerment through the power of a dying star resulted in egomania.
It says something about his ego that he kept going after his body had degraded to less than dust and _never even noticed_ (or went into total denial)...
Oh-me-gone?
THE BORG VIEW OMEGA AS PERFECTION.
A thousand times thank you!
This is the first time I find a clear, cogent presentation which I can digest.
Fascinating stuff. Very entertaining. The amount of work involved to put this video together is simply staggering.
I found this quite randomly and really enjoyed your presentation.
This is one of, if not *the* best videos I have seen in this topic. Thanks man.
Great video. Thank you for making them, I'm here 100% for Doctor Who, and would love to see more! Thanks again.
here after season 12 finale and WOW
It was great to watch this video after listening to the Scrolls of Rassilon. Well done and very enjoyable!
loved this......... thank you for your hours of research and work.
You should look up the masters over the Time Lords called The Guardians of Time and the Guardians masters who go by The Grace. Little is known about The Grace only that it is said they can delete a time lord or even more so the whole species from all of time with a single thought. They also built the Key to time which was present in classic doctor who.
Very interesting, as a long time fan of the show, I'll have to look in to this myself. Back during the McCoy era, there was an attempt to return some of the mystery to the Doctor, implying that he was something more that a Time Lord.
Indeed. I have to rewatch a lot of the classics myself. I do remember the Exxilon Great City. Had the power to disable both Tardises and Dalek ships which is a very impressive feat. To bad they've lost their former knowledge.
peccatumDei Yes, they were trying to intimate that the Doctor was the third of a triumvirate with Rassilon and Omega called The Other. I believe he collaborated with them to create the Time Lords we know today. From the various sources I could find, he was supposed to be a Time Lord from a few millennia after the Time Lord's creation, but he knew he was instrumental in bringing them about. So he used a his Time Travel capsule (ie. a TARDIS) to travel back in time to try to change the attitudes of the Time Lords in his time. He attracts Rassilon's attention by showing a seal given to him from a later incarnation of Rassilon. He worked with Rassilon and Omega to created the technology they would use as Time Lords (regeneration, TARDIS's, and the Hand of Omega) The Other tried to convince him to change the direction the Time Lords would eventually follow. Rassilon, however, upon hearing this information decides to instead become more despotic because of the power the Time Lords in the future have. But paranoia took hold and he decided that Omega would be a political rival, so he sabotaged his ship to send him into the black hole. He also saw The Other as a potential rival and turn the Gallifreyian people on him to hunt him down and attempt to get the future technology he had. While trying to flee, he became trapped in the loom rooms, and his only option was to throw himself into them with the hope he would be recombined some time in the future. Rassilon became infuriated at this loss and decreed that all mention of The Other's real identity would be wiped from the history of Gallifrey. Eventually, The Other was recombined and took the name of the Doctor. The problem was that his memories were buried and it took his first six regenerations to trigger them into his awareness. This was to be expanded upon, but they cancelled the show before they could flesh it out much further.
Deco my house like galifray fast!
The Guardians were arguably the worst creation of Classic Who, and that entire "Key to Time" season was utter garbage. Only the Robert Holmes (Vengeance of Kroll I think?) story was decent at best. It is never explained what the key is, who the guardians are and how they have the powers of basically gods, why it is so important that they get the key, etc.
However, JNT did help to give the Guardians some respect, as the character of Turlough and his story arc was brilliant. Enlightenment is definitely in the top 20-30 stories ever, if not top 10. Even then though, there's only so much that can be helped, as the Guardians by their nature are Gods, and God is a very weak character because he's completely one-dimensional and has no flaws or challenges. There's nothing interesting about a character that's perfect all the time, and it makes no sense why the Black Guardian even needs Turlough or the Key. If he's so powerful, why can't he just do what he wants to do himself?
Thank you so much for this very entertaining and enlightening video !
Very cool video! I just saw “the five doctors” for the first time and wondered what I was missing, this definitely filled the gap between that movie and modern (tv)who
Great job! Being a fan it touched on points that I already knew. And of course some things I didn't. However, it seems to tie a back story together cleanly. A TV story about Gallifrey and/or Rassilon's rise to power? Love the idea! That is waiting to happen!
Meanwhile, on Gallifrey: "we seal of the planet... no one leaves... and cut the phone lines... contain the spread of misinformation."
Timothy Dalton was EXCELLENT in that role.
Wow, thank you for this video. I love when the wiser Dr. Who fans are able to put together clear and informative Who history for us relative newer fans (especially us in the States) that never had the benefits of learning backstory as it unfolded. I did watch some Dr. Who as a kid but unfortunately most of it was on my local public broadcast network and almost always out of season order. One week it could be Peter Davison then Jon Pertwee the next then over to McCoy. I couldn't coherently watch in proper order till the return of Who with Eccleston. Please keep these vids going.👌👌👍👍👍👍👍👍😆😆😆😆😆
great video man really enjoyed this
Very nice compile Leeshan and much better than the last show runners understanding. Although when first introduced they were described as immortal. By the time Tom Baker came in to play of course they decide to not make them all powerful. I like the description and backstory information that you’ve compiled
oh sweeeet the more doctor who the better you are thorough and find everything thats to the point and are truly concise you are the ebst and someone who goes to the extra trouble to find the absolute truth and facts about any subject one of the biggest reasons i subscribed long ago.
The "How much Powah" joke earned you a sub! That was amazing.
a really good video.. congrats!!
andd love that joke at 11:06
Timelords arent a species they are an order of Gallifreyans. The gift of regeneration & the academy education & membership of the chapters set them apart.
They are, in fact, a species. They, unlike any others, have two, smaller, hearts.
The regeneration was not exclusive to just the time lords, it was a virus. Many died, but many survived and their children carried the regeneration. The thing that eventually separated the time lords and the normal Gallifreyans was the use of looming over natural birth and Rassilon's limiting the Timelord spots only to the loomers. Otherwise, there really was no difference
They WERE a species. Not animal, not human, thus a separate species. Biology 101
its been suggested that both elite and non elite can regenerate.
Considering Jenny was just a clone "daughter" of the doctor and regenerated im guessing that all Gallifreyans can regenerate.
They are indeed a distinct species. They have two hearts, different blood, and other stuff.
It'd be nice to see Omega again in a future episode.
My question is, 'Why MIssy?', when we could have had an awesome new Rani!
@@xyon172 I agree Michelle Gomez would have made an awesome Rani (they could have made the Bonny an Clide of time Lord's with the master ) but probably because of ratings etc. The master is just way more known ergo the appearance of a mistress is gonna push viewing figures more then a character that's not well known.
There's a lot of Rassilon stuff in the book "a brief history of the Time Lords" which gives a lot of answer! It's a great book!
in Hell Bent they should have gotten Pierce Brosnan to play Rassilon since Timothy Dalton wasn't able to reprise his role.
Schardt Cinematic Productions They should have never made Hell Bent. Or at least change it very heavily...
lol...I see what you did there..
how many agree with me that Time Lord's outclass sith and Jedi by far
definitley, i just wish Timelords wern't portrayed as scared weak people, in the classic series they were god like goth people with infinite amount of power.
Michael Martin Same. If they returned properly to the Universe like they were in the classic series and used all their powers again that would be amazing
Daniel Sudworth a lot of people or atleast they should
Time Lords aren't just your run-of-the-mill advanced aliens. They're literally bound into the Time Vortex surrounding the Multiverse. That's why the Doctor can literally feel time and changes in time that happened. Thanks to this, effects on time such as slowing time down or reversing it will not affect Time Lords and they can just walk through time barriers. Time loops also have no effect, as shown in The Lodger.
Time Lords thus essentially have unnatural precognition abilities in relation to time across the Multiverse and can remember timelines that never existed. Time Lords make physics around them more rational by being present, which is why they could stomp out magic from the Multiverse and kill off gods with ease.
There's more, but one of their best abilities is forced-regeneration, which can alter themselves into eldritch abominations. In Sky Pirates!, the Charon tries to kill the Doctor by blasting him witgh the energy of stars, and the Doctor's Time Lord DNA morphs him into a multi-dimensional monster big enough to crush the star the Charon resided in.
Daniel Sudworth I'm a massive Whovian and Star Wars fan, and...
No. No they don't.
Loved the Video Well Documented
Fascinating stuff, thanks.
This is a fantastic historical video! It's not often that I have an opportunity to learn new things about Who on UA-cam, and I loved every second of this. Well done!
gypsyninja I don't think any of it is real/canon. I've never seen anything supporting the stuff in the video based on the original or current show.
Writers really must make more of the other timelords likeable again. In recent years they've been portrayed as elitist and quite annoying characters
Really we haven't spent enough time with them, during Bakers run there were several long stories taking place on Gallifrey that allowed you to get to know individuals but before and after they only really appeared as deus ex machina.
One great potential, the Meddling Monk marooned on Earth during the middle ages, would be great if we saw him again he was the proto-master character but a lot more mischievous rather than pure evil.
I'm sure there may be a few. We saw the execution squad turn. So it's probably those on the other end. The (Common People).
I like Robert Holme’s version of the Time Lords - a race who have been so powerful for so long that they had become a bunch of stale, doddery old buffers. Just the sort of society that the Doctor would want to run away from.
Honestly that feels like a problem of new who as a whole. It favors humans and earth too much. That is to say when is the last time we got a non human companion (that actually traveled with the doctor in the tardis) or one from another time period. They really aren’t giving us that much time on another planet (no more than 1-2 episodes) or with non humans to get to know and develop their characters (on the level we see for companions). At this point Gallifrey is just a joke (well more accurately a plot device). At this point it has been destroyed in order to revive doctor who, brought back to give him more regenerations, somehow ended up at the end of the universe and out of the pocket dimension is was trapped in, and destroyed again because “series 11 was weak and we need to bring fans back” basically. Timelords aren’t going to get a chance to be like able as long as new who keeps treating Gallifrey like this.
Considering how even the Doctor (humanity’s greatest ally among Time Lords) has looked down upon humanity on numerous occasions, I’m actually not surprised at the “snobbish” view we see of the Time Lords (from our primitive mayfly perspective).
Proof that James Bond is a Timelord 🤣
An inspiring and interesting account of research! So cool to understand
Good overview, well done.
Chibnall: hold my beer
I just found this channel and I love it
Awesome video.
thx i ve learned new things,pls make more video's.After fifty year its sometimes difficult to keep up with the doctor's history.
superb vid, loved it
remember in "The Five Doctors" he wasn't too kind either.
Wow!
This is the first of your videos I've seen.
Sub'd, Liked and rang that "silly" bell
Now to binge watch :)
Thanks :)
You know This Is What . I like .... So much fun Knowing the History That never Been Told in one time .
I like that
2020: yeah, who tf was Rassilon, again?
For some reason the time travel and regeneration thing. Kind of gave me the idea that the timelords are really only one person.
Sweet video!
Very cool upload once again bud.Imma gonna share your work through family and friends and let it spread👌🏻👊🏻✋🏻😎
Amazing video subbed
Thanks for doing this, learnt alot from this video, an you do one about the history of the time war
Wow! I didn't know all this history of Doctor Who existed. Well done. Can you do a back story of The Doctor on Doctor Who?
This is AMAZING! Can you please cite some sources? I want to know the direct sources of your info! Thanks for making this video!
Interesting to see the ending about Rassilon becoming a Cyberman which is similar to what happened with the Master in the latest Doctor Who finale
this is great! thanks. never knew much about Rassilon. so one question is, can all Gallifreyans regenerate or only Time Lords?
Only Time Lords. Though the origins of the difference between a typical Galifreyan and a Time Lord are in dispute. All the crap about "Looms" comes from a series of books that virtually everybody who has run the show since do not prescribe to. Thankfully, in my opinion as I think it's a rather bad and limiting story.
Loved it!
I need waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more Doctor Who/Gallifreyan videos
Bearing in mind that one timelord lifetime is already like 1200 years if not killed
I think canon-wise they are going with exposure to the Time-Vortex as the source of the Time-Lord's regeneration. Apparently a fissure to the Time-Vortex is a natural phenomena on Gallifrey. In the show, you need exposure to the energies of the Time-Vortex to read the circular language of the Gallifreyians. And exposure to the Time-Vortex is how a human (River Song) gained regeneration.
That was pretty darn awesome
Very cool video.
Just a quick note on one or two suppressed myths & rumours about Rassilon. One is that he may also have been infected/bitten by a Great Vampire in the Great Vampire War; so given events like his rumoured orchestration of Omega's exile into the anti matter universe, he may not have been working entirely in Gallifrey's favour towards the end. Certainly he was ruthless & very much ruled by ego. Additionally you didn't mention the Other. The other is a significant figure given it's mysterious nature, but though most historical records relating to him were destroyed, their remains some statues in the Panopticon that depict Rassilon, Omega & the Other as a Triumvirate of powerful figures. - The Other is said to have advised or counciled Rassilon so he may play an important roll in Rassilon's formation of Timelord Society. Also there's a whole series of stories that actually feature Rassilon in the Big Finish 8th Doctor Audio dramas, & there's Rassilon's Foundry, from the Gallifrey Spin off, that shows that he was a xenophobic piece of work in the extreme
Rassilon=James Bond,now i see all clear&understand(ordered my thirth eye two weeks ago!
I am not going to lie, I would love to see a video on the Doctor in this style.
Timothy Dalton on doctor Who. That is new for me, so thank you for this video.
My high school had that book when I was in. It also talked about some of the tools used to fix it like a gab hammer the sonic screwdriver and some outher things
Definately need more dr who content. I'd like to see one on why the TARDIS chose the Dr as her companion.
have you considered making a video on Omega or other Time Lords?
More Dr Who content, please!
can you do a video on omega? he would be a great villain to bring back!
Nice informative video, thanks for putting it all together, really interesting stuff.
I never read any of the books or comics, and I only ever saw a few of the old John Pertwie and Tom Baker episodes, so i didn’t really know who Rassilon was until he showed up in that David Tennant episode with the Master.
You have the same accent as Bradley Walsh who potrays Graham
Thanks for the video. Really enjoyed it.
Where does all this lead us I wonder---lol-greetings from little Belguim!
could you do a more in depth expose on omega? many thanks
I always thought that rassilon was a title passed down.
Or maybe he was able to give himself more regeneration cycles like how they gave the doctor a new cycle.
He had infinite regenerations.
Rassilon is immortal, he can regenerate infinitely as stated in The Five Doctors.
He was resurrected for the time war
Cosmic Dragon he still had infinite regenerations though. In Gallifrey Time War 2 he mentions that he has infinite lives
messin1000 I believe it’s implied that Rassilon introduced a genetic weakness into timelord biology restricting how many lives they could have to make sure none of them could outlive him
Thanks that was great. The hand of omega makes more sense now to as a weapon of mass destruction .being named after him.didnt know rasillon was this important. thanks for your video . subscribed.and his biggest pain in the ass sometimes was a timelord with a liking for Jamie Dodgers .jelly beans and a screwdriver .that's what makes who great.
Soooo.... is "Thremix" another name for Tecteun, now? ;)
grailchaser I like to imagine that Thremix was the birth name but then change it to Tecteun when they figure out regeneration
Can you please do a video about the Master from Doctor Who?
I had always wondered if Rassilon was The Master's father as The Master once described the fields of his father's land when he and The Doctor played together as boys and in the episode of The End Of Time, The Master looked so hurt when Rassilon described him " As a disease " and not to mention the amount of anger The Master had against Rassilon, when he accused Rassilon of " Doing this " to him---his entire life---in maybe to the reference to the never-ending beating of the drums in his head that never allowed him to have any kind of silent peace, which means that Rassilon had used his own son as a pawn and a tool in his own evil masterplan.
He dedicated his time to have a small school of freaks to fight against some extra dimensional dude
where do these schematics come from because they look amazing
A artist goes by Time-Lord-Rassilon, his account is in the description.
I eternally await the day that Omega emerges back into our reality and curbstomps Rassilon's head into the fucking pavement
