Time Lord tech

[Fractyl]

Thought these might need to be mentioned in the list of Gallifreyian Technology...

• The Hand of Omega: A remote stellar manipulator that can age stars into supernovas. It can enhance the attack potency of an object, like enabling a Baseball bat to damage a Dalek. The item was stolen by the First Doctor and hidden on 1960s Earth, retrieved by the Seventh Doctor a day later when London became the site of conflict between two Dalek factions.

• The Moment: The Time Lords' most powerful and most dangerous weapon, labeled the Galaxy Eater as is capable of destroying whole galaxies within in a single moment. It can also create time fissures. Because its sentience and morality, the Moment was only weapon in the forbidden Omega Vault not to be used in the Time War. But it was stolen by the War Doctor, who intended to use it to end the Time War before convinced not to use it.

• Chameleon Arch: A device in the form of a pocket watch, with a perception filter so it would not be easily noticed, the Chameleon serves to contain the essence and memories of a Time Lord needing to hide among the populace of a planet like Earth.

• Confession Dial: A small, circular disk that considered a Time Lord's last will and testament. It is essential to a Time Lord's final rites, allowing a dying Time Lord to face their demons and make their peace before their mind is uploaded into the Matrix.

• Matrix: A Gallifreyian super computer that is used to upload the minds of recently deceased Time Lords, using them in its self-defense protocols. One Data Slice from the Matrix, which Mistress brought to Earth at the start of human civilization, has enough storage to hold the minds of billions of deceased humans.

Looks alright.

 

[Antvasima]

This seems reasonable. You can politely ask an administrator to temporarily unlock the appropriate page if you wish.

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

Good job coming up with these definitions! Do we need to add any relevant statistics to the Time Lords, or is it just the definitions we are adding?

 

[Fractyl]

Antvasima: I thought you or another with higher clearance might add the info. Even make any changes.

Colonel Krukov: I don't think the tech needs relevant statistics if their abilities are mentioned on the show. But the Time lords themselves are another story.

Using the Doctor as a reference, whom has been noted be stronger and faster then he appears, Time Lords are more durable that peak humans. In fact, the Doctor survived falls that would shatter human bone, endured extreme temperatures for 10 seconds, and took numerous hits from bolts of lightning.

But the most note-worthy of the Time Lords' durability is their ability to absorb, withstand and expel low levels of radiation they are briefly exposed to. At the moment, we know Time Lords are of a 9-B rank as the Tenth Doctor suffered terminal radiation poisoning from absorbing 500,000 rads (500 kilorads/5 kilojoules) of radiation. That dose of radiation is 500 times the dosage needed to kill a human being (1,000 rad/1 kilorad/10 joules).

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

I'm not sure putting them as 9-B as both the Master and the Doctor have died from a gunshot before.

EDIT: It's very inconsistent TBH. The Doctor managed to survive jumping out of a spaceship and land on the floor with minor injuries.

 

[Fractyl]

True, but inconsistencies can be mentioned.

The same can be said of the Dalekanium which the Daleks' casing is made of. As the series so far explained, Dalkanium is a metal that attracts gamma radiation while also is bulletproof and resistant to most lasers and explosives. But the Dalekanium has been shown to be ineffective against energy projectiles, objects made of Dark Star Alloy (which go "through armour-plating like a knife through people"), and an 1960s anti-tank rocket (One having blew off the head module of a Dalek casing).

In that same case, since the Time War, Daleks developed force field tech to protect themselves from non-consecutive gun fire as their eyestalks are a vulnerable weakpoint. As for the Daleks themselves, they have Type-1 immortality and would eventually rot away into ooze.

While I cannot say much for the Seventh Doctor as he survived the gunshots and died instead on the operating table in the exploratory heart surgery that followed, Saxton's case was more on the model of the fire arm and the close distance between him and the gun.

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

The Skaro degredaitions, Special Weapons Daleks and the New Dalek Paradigm should be a bit stronger than those of what we have currently as well.

 

[Fractyl]

Well, I have yet to see the degredaitions on the series. But Special Weapons Dalek's Attack Potency was enough to reduce a few regular Daleks to heaps of dust while the New Dalek Paradigm have build-in disintregrator lasers. But I think we would need to wait until we see more of those subtypes in action.

 

[Colonel_Krukov]

The Skaro degredaitions only appear in audio stories from what I've heard. They're basically spawned from the chaos of time travel:

Basically since both sides had time travel, the Daleks and Time Lords where trying to one up each other every time one travelled into the past to exploit a weakness. Eventually these "degredaitions" are what spawned due to so many changes, trying to become more advance and remove any weaknesses.
