Zagreus (8th Doctor - Alt 13)

From Relativespace

Zagreus, like the Seventh Doctor, is currently played by a rather shifty sort under the moniker of "The Other Sam" (to differentiate her from the moderator named Sam) who can be contacted at her livejournal for any or no particular reason

Physical Description

Essentially identical to the 8th Doctor - blue-eyed, curly-haired, wears flouncy shirts. He tends toward a rather mad, dangerous expression wholly unlike the Doctor in his uncorrupted state.

Character Backstory

In this alternate universe, Charlie Pollard could not bring herself to kill Zagreus with the anti-time blade created from the melted-down TARDIS metals and portions of his other personalities (pieces of the 5th, 6th and 7th Doctors' personas). He destroyed both Charlie Pollard, Rassilon and quite likely the rest of the Time Lords with his "Vorpal Blade" (the anti-time dagger) and proceeded to go on a rampage through his own universe, slicing people, planets, entire galaxies out of existance and generally wreaking havoc across all time and space. He takes his name from an old gallifreyan nursery rhyme.

Character Personality

He's completely mad. Batshit, in fact. He wants to destroy all of time and space. Some tiny piece of the 8th doctor still exists, but the poor chap has been completely subsumed within the Zagreus personality and is more or less trapped in a back corner of his own mind. He is possibly under the control of the Divergents, who are out for blood more or less, but this is unconfirmed.

The Zagreus Poem

Zagreus sits inside your head

Zagreus lives among the dead

Zagreus sees you in your bed

And eats you when you're sleeping

Zagreus at the end of days

Zagreus lies all other ways

Zagreus comes when time's a maze

And all of history is weeping

Zagreus taking time apart

Zagreus fears the Hero heart

Zagreus seeks the final part

The reward that he is reaping

Zagreus sings when all is lost

Zagreus takes all those he's crossed

Zagreus wins in all it costs

The Hero's hearts he's keeping

Zagreus seeks the Hero's ship

Zagreus needs the web to rip

Zagreus sups time at a drip

And life aside he's sweeping
