- With the aid of the Sisterhood of Karn, the Eighth Doctor regenerates into the War Doctor.
- The 8th Doctor (Paul McGann) tries to rescue a pilot named Cass, whose gunship is about to crash on Karn (a planet that The Doctor once visited in his 4th incarnation.) But Cass refuses The 8th Doctor's help when she learns he is a Time Lord. Both he and Cass are killed when her spaceship crashes on Karn. He is pulled from the wreckage by the Sisterhood of Karn and temporarily revived, but only has 5 minutes until he meets his final end. The Sisterhood of Karn wants him to return to Gallifrey and fight in The Time War. He protests being involved, but they argue until he admits they are right.
They offer him a choice of a potion to aid his regeneration and influence his new incarnation. After consideration, he regretfully decides that The Time War will need a warrior. He resigns himself to fate, chooses the warrior potion and regenerates into The War Doctor (John Hurt).- written by dan-willi84
