Across the Seasons
How this character reads at season scale
Master neurosurgeon operating in seclusion on Karn, obsessed with Time Lord physiology and the secrets of the Sisterhood's ritual. Also a ruthless scientist driven by ambition to resurrect Time Lord enemies without regard for ethical boundaries, operating from a basement laboratory beneath his parlor. His experiments in grotesque resurrections reveal a fixation on controlling time and life, manifesting as both academic study and reckless pragmatism.
Old Solon is a former elder of the Sevateem who has become a father-figure to Leela, embodying the wisdom and stoicism of Solos' native people. Though physically frail, his intellectual sharpness persists as he navigates the fractures in tribal authority during the Marshal's regime. His willingness to sacrifice himself for Leela—volunteering for the Test of the Horda when she challenges tribal dogma—reveals his tragic loyalties. His choice to act instead of witnessing further division underscores the generational weight of holding a fragmented culture together.
