Sarah Jane and Harry discover the presence of a Sontaran named Styre, who

are using the replicated village to help them prepare for their imminent

in regenerative crises -- is slowly dying. The Sisterhood believes the
Doctor has come to steal the vestiges of the elixir and has him
captured. Also on Karn, meanwhile, is the mad Doctor Solon, who has

The Alzarian Adric typified the erratic
nature of many male teenagers. Adric possessed a brilliant mathematical
mind, and thought himself mature beyond his years. Nonetheless, he shunned
the company of the adults who welcomed him and instead sought the grudging
acceptance of his fellow youth, with whom he was all but incompatible.
Adric was boisterous, argumentative and unsure. He did not appreciate that
intelligence means little if it is not tempered by a degree of common
sense, and this naivete often meant that Adric could be easily deceived
and swayed by the villains he encountered with the Doctor. Still, despite
his many flaws, Adric demonstrated an almost Doctor-like intensity and
drive which, sadly, was cut short far too early in his life.
Matthew Waterhouse played Adric from Full Circle in October 1980 to Earthshock in March 1982. He returned as
a hallucination for Time-Flight in
March 1982 and as a regenerative image for The Caves Of Androzani in March
1984.

Nyssa, daughter of a Trakenite Consul, had
always been gifted with the best in life: a noble and proud father, a
wondrous array of technological achievements -- her specialty was
bioelectronics -- and the tranquil nature of the Union of Traken. With the
murder of her father and the destruction of her home planet, however,
Nyssa was forced to grow up quickly. In the process, her already keen
intellect was refined further, and she showed an enormous capacity for
both serenity and fierce determination. There was always an aura of
sadness and tragedy about Nyssa, however, a reminder of the many disasters
which befell her so quickly, so early in her life./
Sarah Sutton played Nyssa from The Keeper Of Traken in January 1981 to

Tegan Jovanka was an airline stewardess for
Air Australia. Loud, brash and stubborn, she was nonetheless gifted with a
clever mind and an appreciable dose of common sense. Tegan was not a woman
to dance around a problem -- she cut right to the heart of the matter, and
had little time to spare for those who would not do likewise. Despite her
brassy exterior, however, even Tegan was not immune to the horrible things
she witnessed during her time in the TARDIS; at first addictive, the
weight of these experiences gradually grew to be more than even she could
bear.
Janet Fielding played Tegan from Logopolis in February 1981 to Resurrection Of The Daleks in
February 1984. She returned as a regenerative image for The Caves Of Androzani in March
