Um, actually Mike said the time lords were originally limited to thirteen regenerations. They were actually only supposed to have twelve. Matt Smith (the 11th doctor but 12th incarnation because of the war doctor) is about to actually die when the time lords give him more regeneration energy through a crack in time letting him regenerate.

[@eveescastle5866]

Also this retcons in Clasic Who as learned in Trials of a Timelord (I believe that's the title) we learn the Valeyard was supposed to be the final incarnation. Of course this is all thrown out the window with timeless children so who knows if we'll ever get another Valeyard story

[@daweaselgeek1430]

Um actually, the Tenth Doctor used up a regeneration without changing his form when he channeled it into his severed hand after being shot by a Dalek. The Eleventh mentioned it again before his regeneration.

[@peterporkeristhespiderham988]

Originally, timelords had 12 regenerations per regeneration cycle. The doctor used 7 to get from the first doctor to the eighth. He used 1 to go from McGann to Hurt’s War doctor. He used 1 to go from Hurt to the 9th doctor and another to go from 9 to 10. 10 used one regeneration to make a half human-half timelord version of himself (the metacrisis doctor or tentoo). Then, 10 used a regeneration to become Smith. That means he used all 12 of his regenerations and needed more regeneration energy to regenerate into Capaldi. Capaldi was the first regeneration in the new cycle. The regeneration into Whittaker was the second regeneration, so the doctor should have 10 regeneration left. Then, Chibnall decided to retcon almost all of doctor who history by claiming that the doctor has an infinite number of regenerations and is the timeless child. Like someone else mentioned, valeyard was also potentially retconned during New Who since he was supposed to be the last regeneration of the doctor… but that’s also not entirely true. Audiobooks have given us conflicting reports of how the valeyard was created. The brink of death hints that the valeyard was created by the timelords. Every dark thought implied that the valeyard just splintered off from the doctor before his final regeneration. The trial of the valeyard implies that the doctor was experimenting on how to break the regeneration limit when he created the valeyard (kinda like a clone). The Ultimate Foe (Tv episode) claimed that the Valeyard was between the 12th and final versions of the doctor (which could means that any of the future doctors could regenerate into the Valeyard). So basically, Um actually, Jodie Whitaker isn’t the thirteenth incarnation of the doctor because of the war doctor and all of the pre-Hartnell timeless child versions of the doctor. And um actually, timelords originally only had 12 regenerations (meaning that they can have 13 versions of themselves). And lastly, um actually, the valeyard is like the joker; the backstory always changes and isn’t consistent.

[@icelandic1717]

@@eveescastle5866 Beat me to it :) the timeless children kind of eff up the whole thing, but was a fun story regardless imo

[@SimonMoon5]

Right, Trapp seems to be mixing up "incarnation" with "regeneration". Originally, there could be thirteen Doctors, but the Doctor could only regenerate 12 times. Trapp calling the female Doctor the 13th "iteration" of the Doctor only confuses the matter more. That can be considered to be true as there only thirteen actors who have played a character calling themselves "the Doctor", since "the War Doctor" doesn't consider himself to be "the Doctor", abandoning that name because that's not who he is anymore. So, the part that was "wrong" could be considered to be right and the part that was "right" is definitely wrong. And being "limited" to 12 regenerations/13 incarnations might also not be absolutely true even in the original series, as the Master was offered a whole new regeneration cycle in The Five Doctors, though the fact that he was no longer in a Time Lord body might have been part of the reason why that was possible.

In Twilight, the shapeshifters are Native American in where their powers come from and they used to shapeshift into a number of different forms, including all the traditional ones for Native American culture.

It also wasn't "originally" established as having 13 bodies/12 regenerations.

[@MastarNinja]

@@GryphonBrokewing Two years late to answer you question, but yes and no. Yeah the Doctor was revealed to be the Timeless Child, a presumably truly immortal being from an unknown universe, but that doesn't affect the numbers. When the Timeless Child was forcibly regenerated into Hartnell's Frist Doctor, the Timelords erased their memories and artificially forced onto them a fix regeneration cycle that made them a regular Timelord. As seen with "Turn Left" and "The Name of the Doctor", the limiter that the Timelords forced on the Timeless Child made them mortal and therefore killable. It's still unknown if the "new cycle" that 11th was granted on Trenzalor really just gave The Doctor a new set of 12 regeneration, or if they just pretended so and simply removed the limiter completely.

[@GryphonBrokewing]

@@MastarNinja Cool, thanks for the recap. It was already Tennant's 3rd season when I found out it was going again, then life got in the way with Capalidi's incarnation and I've only caught a few episodes here & there.

[@MastarNinja]

@@GryphonBrokewing No problems. Also, because I realized after posting that this probably wasn't clear enough, while I said the details regarding the second cycle was still vague, the assumption is that it is just another cycle of 12 regeneration. The method used by the Timelords to forced the original cycle that Hartnell started was the chameleon device (used in series 3 to turn The Doctor and later The Master human), and we know it still hasn't been opened because 13th (played by Jodie Whittaker) got the watch back in the latest season, before throwing it unopened to the deepest part of the TARDIS and ordering the TARDIS to keep it away from them so it can never be open. The technicality that I want to correct myself on is that while we know for a fact that the memories pre-Hartnell are still locked away in the watch, we don't actually have definitive proof that her regeneration is still limited post-Smith. It is implied to be because of the watch being unopen and a few line of dialogue pointing toward that conclusion, but there's still nothing 100% confirming the new "12 regeneration cycle" post-Timeless Child reveal.

[@dannybob42]

Um Actually, when found in the Troll Hoard the _short sword_ (there is a difference) is not named Sting, Bilbo names it afterwards with the spiders. Um Actually, Dip kills all toons so it's not a specific weakness, it's like saying humans are weak to guns, Roger himself seems personally weak to alcohol, whiskey especially. Additionally while too dense to float, Stitch overcame his fear of water in the Disney series, where he even climbed out the bottom of a pool, he is however allergic to sauerkraut. Um Actually, the Doctor only has 12 regenerations. The first Doctor was considered the original and thus he would have 12 faces after, so upon Matt Smith's '11th' he is presumably unable to regenerate no more having regenerated prior as the John Hurt's War Doctor and David Tennant's Doctor shifting his regeneration unto his severed hand, which created the Meta Crisis Doctor: 13 faces but 12 regenerations. In addition, it is possible for Time Lords to go further when granted a new cycle, which is how Smith regenerates into Capaldi. This is all until Chibnall stupidly retcons it and makes the Doctor 'The Timeless Child', an unknown being not even native to Gallifrey who has unlimited regenerations that Gallifreyans grafted unto themselves, so they could canonize the Morbius Doctors...and other things

[@McBehrer]

they didn't say it was names Sting when they found it. They found the sword, and they named it Sting. If they found a dog, and named it "Spot," you could still say "they found the dog, Spot," and that is not made factually incorrect by the name coming after

Um Actually the dagger didn't have a name until Bilbo named it "Sting" so it would be technically incorrect to say that Sting was found. An unnamed dagger was found. Also, daggers in general can be pretty long, upwards of two feet. (They _usually_ aren't but the _can_ be.)

[@roboninja565]

Sting was pretty small even in Bilbo/Frodo's hands. It's a short sword for them(i.e. a one-hander), so I would estimate it at like just a foot long, if even shorter than that. More of a letter opener, really

[@romxxii]

Um actually, John Hurt is not called the Hurt Doctor, he is called the War Doctor because he was the Doctor during the Time War. Also, originally, Tine Lords were not a thing. They were introduced in the Patrick Troughton story "War Games" to explain why the Doctor was changing and why he was going to be exiled on earth as Jon Pertwee. The whole thirteen generations thing is from the modern reboot of the series. ALSO as explained in the current most recent episode, Jodie Whitaker is not even the 14th doctor because it is explained that the doctor had near infinite regenerations while the gallifreyan was experimenting on them to create the first time lords

[@MastarNinja]

It's still unclear (as I wrote this) if The Doctor is presumable truly immortal again. We know they used to be when they were the "Timeless Child", but we also have episodes like "Turn Left" and "The Name of the Doctor" that showed them dead, implying that when the Timelords forcibly regenerated them into Hartnell's First Doctor they may have also forced a define set of 12 regeneration on them. There hasn't been any in-universe confirmation on whether or not the "2nd set of regeneration" they were given on Trenzalor was really a new set of 12 regeneration, or if the Timelords simply removed the artificial limitation and just lied about it to keep the "Timeless Child" experiment a secret. And because this is Um Actually, Jodie's 13th Doctor was technically the 15th Doctor, not the 14th. Smith's 11th Doctor explained to Clara that the 10th Doctor was technically both the 11th and 12th Doctor because even though they kept Tennant's face, "10th" still regenerated. So Jodie was the 14th "face" since Hartnell, but the 15th Doctor.

from Google: Sting was an Elven short-sword made in Gondolin during the First Age. Bilbo Baggins discovered Sting in the year TA 2941 in a troll-hoard, and used it during the Quest of Erebor. He later passed it to his heir Frodo Baggins.

[@FulcanMal]

The book calls it a dagger. From Chapter 5: "the little dagger that he got from the trolls, and that he had quite forgotten; nor do the goblins seem to have noticed it, as he wore it inside his breeches. Now he drew it out. It shone pale and dim before his eyes. "So it is an elvish blade, too," he thought; "and goblins are not very near, and yet not far enough."

[@toyloliSpare]

I can do you one better, in the classic series it was only stated that the Master had exceeded his natural regeneration, with no cap given. And then during the trial of the time lord the Valyard was said to be a paradox doctor from between his 12th and 13th regeneration. From this people assumed the cap was 13 lives, but it was never formerly acknowledged until the end of Mat Smith's tenure. So that even prior to this people weren't sure if they were actually going to acknowledge the "cap". "And Um actually", you don't have to use the correct head, with a saw or a grading tool you can usually convert any screw into a flat head. I've had to do this SOOOO many times.

Um actually, T for Troll being a legitimate grade on O.W.L or N.E.W.T exams is simply a joke made in the book, and is never confirmed in any book as a real grade.
