➸ PARADOX ➸ A DOCTOR WHO ROLEPLAY



PARADOX ➸ A DOCTOR WHO ROLEPLAY
The Master: ‘My masterpiece, Doctor. A living TARDIS, strong enough to hold the paradox in place, allowing the past and the future to collide in infinite majesty.’
The Doctor: ‘But you're changing history. Not just Earth, the entire universe.’
The Master: ‘I'm a Time Lord. I have that right.’

Last of the Time Lords

The flaws of the plan had been so minute that they were easily missed – even by the Doctor. There had been the time when Amy had caught a glimpse of a blonde girl trailing behind a brown overcoat that seemed far too long for the owner. The time when the redheaded woman in the wedding dress was screeching for a taxi in the middle of London, or the time when Amy had ran head first into a woman with a red leather jacket who had no time to apologise. All these small flaws in a grand plan were easily missed.

The fusion of two worlds has created a crack in time, but no one is yet to realise just what the consequences of this cataclysmic event are. A paradox has been created in the heart of the TARDIS, bringing the past, present and future together:

‘What do you mean: you can’t find it? How can you lose a time machine!?’ Amy Pond said incredulously. ‘Are you telling me that we are stuck in Leadworth?’
‘Upper Leadworth,’ Rory corrected.
‘We could be stuck on Queen Elizabeth’s private yacht for all I care!’
‘That would never happen. She’s terrified of water,’ the Doctor replied.
‘NOT THE—’
‘You must let me think!’ the Doctor shouted, falling to the ground and placing his ear to the dewy grass. ‘She was parked here.’ He stood up and grasped at the air before him. ‘She’s been gone for an hour, at least. The fear picked up in his voice. ‘She could be circling any century, any place, any planet ...’
‘But, you have to have a way of bringing it back,’ Amy said, unable to understand a world where the Doctor had no plan formulating. ‘You can bring her back.’
This was an inconceivable event that even the Doctor’s brain could not understand, and as he steadied himself against a wall, staring blankly at the empty space where his TARDIS should have been, he knew that this was it. He did not hear Amy’s cries or Rory’s condolences: the man with the time machine could no longer run.

It is unknown who has stolen the TARDIS, but it has left the Doctor and his companion without a method of escape. The TARDIS has been used to create a Paradox Machine, allowing for past and present to be brought together without instantly destroying the world. These means that two Doctor’s will meet: one with and one without a TARDIS. As these two worlds collide the crack in time is growing and drawing other planets and beings together. However impossible the situation they must work together to restore the balance.
NOTES ON PLOT
The story will begin before Eleven loses the TARDIS.
I am not opposed to the Master being behind this, but if it is him then the episodes involving the Paradox Machine will not be considered in the game. It seems unlikely that he would repeat the same (failed) plan. However, if there is another idea as to who is behind this plan then I am more than happy to consider it.
