Coincidentally, I was mulling over the problem of Fate/Step Night yesterday evening.
Summoning by reagent only suggests Sun Wukong to me, who has the problem of not being human, and the problem of likely being entirely uncontrollable. (Doug probably doesn't have the word for the headband.)
I'm also kind of lost as who would be appropriate for summoning based off of personal compatibility. Any suggestions for either Bob?
I'm also afraid that the specific notion I'm working with is more of 'can't think of anyone else, maybe Doug will work' rather than being well suited to a Step.
I'm currently trying to think of a) settings circa 2060-2070s, b) fantasy settings with travel to or from earth like ZnT/FoZ or maybe Twelve Kingdoms, and c) magical dimensional travellers like Doug.
In a further attempt to specify Doctor Who crosses that vorticity would agree should not be:
Along the line of Zouken Matou, it can be proposed that any vile character of unknown background is actually the Doctor suffering from a pathological regeneration. For example, Precia Testarossa. Combine with some of the stuff about sealing time lord nature for extra plausibility.
I've got a particularly confusing one involving Eva. First, some Doctor after the twelfth or thirteenth regenerated into Yui Ikari. Fuyutsuki was one of her former companions, and the real father of Shinji Ikari. Then, the truth of the Yui-Eva incident is that she regenerated into Gendo, with obsessions and everything. (This Gendo is deluded when he thinks that Yui had a separate existence.) What we see of it in the series is a combination of fabricated records and Shinji's memories being unreliable.
'Doctor regenerates into a young girl, under the care of an older male companion' could have room for a lot of creepy if there is anything about Kodomo no Jikan or Haikaru Genji that squicks you out.
Suppose the Doctor has a young female injured companion. (Could be Susan, could be a young Amy, could be Ace, pick your favorite.) He takes her to the Social Welfare Agency, has her turned into a cyborg, and becomes her handler. It comes to mind that Ace's death fighting in Italy could fit into canon fairly well. (Also, the wiki entry on Ace looks a little like a mild case of being a Slayer, from Buffy.)
Lastly, both Time Lords and Warhammer 40k space marines have two hearts. 'Battle Brother Who' 'Luckily I can can put a stop to this Xeno and or Heresy by application of the Sonic Bolter to induce a neutron flow.'
