Ah damn finally I finished my folk clothes concept of my fiction project work. I WOULD EXPLAIN THE WHOLE STUFF YIPPPEEEEE

Llora: The Home Galaxy of Gary

Llora is Gary's home galaxy, and it can be thought of as a space or alien version of Germany, though with some differences. The inhabitants of Llora are divided into two main races: Herzt and Norsk.

Norsk: This race is inspired by ancient Viking and Norse Scandinavian cultures. Most of them have blonde hair, and some (though a minority) follow Norse mythology, believing in gods like Odin, Thor, Loki, and Heimdall. They also believe that the capital planet of Llora, Minisk is akin to Asgard, the home of the Aesir gods. Norsk originally come from planets Minisk, Jerze, and Fjoshr. In ancient times, they were skilled miners, hunters, builders, and blacksmiths, capable of crafting vehicles and melee weapons.

Herzt: This race, with dark hair, has a distinct Celtic-Teutonic vibe. As you might guess from Gary's full name, Gary Erwin O'Fionnaghal, he belongs to the Herzt clan. They adopted a form of Catholicism brought by the Jesto people through trade. In ancient times, the Herzt were mostly farmers, experts in agriculture, medicine, and metal sculpting. They excelled in sculpting metal for tools, weapons, and infrastructure, including buildings and houses. They were also the first to create firearms and iconic musical instruments, like one resembling a Kithara. Interestingly, they are also credited with inventing beer. The Herzt originally came from the planets Vinz, Drien, and Nitz.

Both races share a writing system similar to ancient Norse runes. Over time, they developed a common language, now known as the Llora dialect of German, and these runes became their official alphabet. Culturally, both the Herzt and Norsk are known for being quite barbaric. A notable aspect of their culture is the normalization of same-sex relationships, which have been accepted since ancient times, long before Earth was struck by Theia.

Ida: The Home Galaxy of Johann

Ida is Johann’s home galaxy, and its people, the Bezantia, are like a space or alien version of the British. However, their culture is about 4.5/100 similar to ancient Rome and Sparta.

The Bezantia are known for their fighting skills and iconic martial arts. In battle, they are ruthless and fierce, similar to the Spartans. They train in special battle arenas with various challenges, such as spear duels, sword duels, climbing, and chariot combat. Even in modern times, these training grounds are used to test individuals aspiring to enter the military or intelligence academies. Johann himself trained in such an academy, which is why he's so skilled.

Bezantians were pioneers in technology, developing it from the rich natural resources in their territory. They are hardworking and renowned explorers. Despite their fierce nature, Bezantians are deeply loyal to their comrades and care deeply for one another, like brothers. If one of their own goes missing or dies, they feel a profound sense of loss. They used to have their own mythology, with gods like Agnethe, the Goddess of War, and Tigenar, the God of Wisdom. After they found Olimpa, they changed course of their mythology towards Olympus gods, renaming the origin gods with their own custom. However, with the arrival of the Jesto people, followers of the Olympus mythology have dwindled. Their old language was Latin, which evolved into the British English they speak now.

Olimpa: The Alien Version of Greece

The race from Olimpa is called the Toze, and as you might expect from the name, they are devout worshippers of gods like Zeus, Hera, Artemis, Apollo, Athena, Ares, Hades, and Poseidon. Mount Olympus is located on their capital planet, and they have a temple there as well. Historically, this race was fanatically devoted to their mythology.

In ancient times, the Toze were a poor civilization. When the Ida (Bezantia) tried to help them, the Toze rejected their assistance, leading to a war between the two. The Toze were defeated and eventually apologized to the Ida. For a time, Olimpa became part of the Ida Empire. Even after Ida left the empire, Olimpa remained an ally, benefiting from their advancements in technology and civilization. Without Ida, Olimpa would likely have remained underdeveloped. Sadly, in my current lore this galaxy has been completely wiped out after being conquered by Llora, and no Toze remain.

---

Civilization Timeline

In my lore, the Ida civilization (Bezantia) is the oldest, followed by Llora (Herzt and Norsk), and finally Olimpa (Toze). The Ida are the most advanced technologically.

Unique Traits of Each Race

- Herzt: If one of their body parts is cut off, it will grow back.

- Norsk: They have three lives.

- Ida/Bezantia: They can live up to 200 years.

- Toze: None

There are more other races in my lore , and I'm sure I will plan to develop them later!

Close-ups!

Lore notes: Fractures

‘A tangle of corrupt biodata in possession of the matrix’ → a) biodata can be corrupted, and it seems that multiple bits of it can be woven together (‘a tangle’), b) i wonder how one actually gains complete control of the matrix, i suppose it would be easier to do that if you were already a part of it like pandora was

‘Rightfully appointed president’ → now this could just be a matter of using a different word to mean the same thing, but they did say that romana had been elected in the last audio (at least i think it was the last one)

‘Our sacred capitol’ → back at it with the religious undertones to the everything of time lord society

‘The peaceful standing of our planet in universal affairs’ → this line is interesting to me given just how many references there have been to past wars with gallifrey and how tense some of the alliances seem with the other temporal powers

‘Older levels of the capitol’ → now does this mean the vaults, or is there older parts that weren’t necessarily once the old city, but are just older parts of the current capitol that people don’t use anymore (something something they just keep (or kept, idk what they’re doing now) building up and abandoned the lower levels and/or left those to be occupied by the people seen as less important in society, i mean we do see here that they lack back up power)

‘Psychic virus’ → a thing that exists i guess

Also interesting to me that they seem to have just had the infrastructure necessary (bombs and such) to start a war despite the above mentioned ‘peaceful standing’ and general noninterference policy that was in place until recently

‘At least seven trans temporal galactic powers’ → we do hear about more of them existing in other audios, but there really are more temporal powers than i would have expected, like this is just referring to the ones that have students on gallifrey, in other aspects of the doctor who universe we typically see time lords as being portrayed as pretty one of a kind when it comes to having time travel capabilities on a scale like they do, and yes they definitely seem to have more power than the other temporal powers by virtue of having had more time to establish themselves, but i’d still love some more details on the other temporal powers and how they go about interacting with the universe

‘Observations of the entire universe, kept so diligently for millions of years’ → what was in the archives, that romana destroyed

Artron forum has some connection to the tardises (is what allows them to work?)

It is possible to scramble the imprimaturs and ground all of the tardises

‘Omnimedia linkups’ → do i actually know what these are, no not really, but it seems like a way of connecting to the news, communications, and/or time lord internet

‘I can’t believe i’m playing field operative again after all these centuries’ → cia coordinator doesn’t have to go on field missions, but he hasn’t been coordinator for all that long, so this must also apply to other ranks within the cia as well, i wonder by what rank you get to opt out of field missions

‘Artron energy is found in time lords minds, it helps to power a tardis. Tradition dictates that the people gather here periodically to meet, exchange views…as they talk their artron energy is painlessly[?] absorbed by receptors in the walls, and routed through to the berthing bays’ → explanation of the artron forum

‘Reduced to using ancient percussion grenades’ → so a) these are old weapons that they just had stashed for whatever reason and b) the time lords have been manufacturing more advanced weapons (for what purpose though is the question)

Artron forum on level 720

maelstrom cloisters → where romana’s base of operations for the war is (she refers to them as ‘these ruins’ and they seem to be below the capitol), also ‘few time lords are aware of them’ and they are close to the outlands

‘Narvins [eye/i][?] link to the capitol systems’ → i’d assume this is eye, based on what we’ve seen in earlier audios, but if he’s using his eyes to get into systems, then why also have codes that can be given away, unless they are used for different systems

Romana’s parents using the outlands as a threat (‘behave yourself or we’ll leave you in the outlands’) → wonder how commonly used that is, also everytime they mention children or parents it makes me wonder what the state of childcare is on this version of gallifrey, what is it like to grow up there (i mean just from the mention of parents we can assume it’s different to the lungbarrow version (not that that’s going to stop me from shoving looms in there), but we do also get the houses (though the familial relations seem to be more along the lines of how humans see them, parents, uncles, siblings, there are cousins mentioned, but it’s probably cousins in the traditional sense, though that one time war audio does make it seem like that could be the way you refer to others in your house/chapter, but that audio is a long way away, so this is probably a discussion better had when we get there), so it’s not entirely different)

‘Skimmers, they’re as obsolete as the bombs’ → given just how old time lord society is and how long an average time lord lives i really wonder how old these things are to be talked about like this, it’s also interesting to me that even though they are this old they still seem to work, technology that’s built to last i guess

‘Well they must be the last ones on gallifrey’ → clearly they are not used anymore, nor it seems have they been used in a long time

The anomaly vault is outside of the capitol

Anomaly vault is dangerous to organic life, so it is typically entered by remotely controlled droids

‘Long ago as the vortisaur flies’ → time lord saying i guess

Vault contents protected from outside reality (well, more outside reality is protected from the contents of the vault)

‘The outer labyrinth and the pazithi cloisters’ ‘pazithi? A regal area’ ‘oh, long since in decline’ → not much to say here, just noting the fact of different areas having different reputations, and those reputations changing over time

‘Have both skimmers followed with the visualizer’ → visualizer something analogous to a security camera?

‘Gallifrey’s oldest landmarks’ → referring to the things destroyed in the war, guessing this includes the artron forum then, again with things being built to last if structures that are still used are also some of the oldest landmarks (and also there are places that pandora recognizes, given she’s from the earlier days of gallifrey)

‘I’ve never been outside’ → i think this is the second (?) time we’ve encountered a time lord who has never left the citadel, i wonder how common of an occurrence that is

Skimmer is able to drive itself

‘There is technology that can help you see again’ → can cure blindness on gallifrey (implants, regenerating the damaged tissue, something more like hearing aids (as in you can take it on and off)?) (also makes me wonder how they go about dealing with disability on gallifrey, if they have technology to deal with it, that means that regeneration isn’t always seen as the solution)

Political commentator and presidential advisor → both jobs that you can have on gallifrey

‘Election vidcasts’ → my current struggle here is are they differentiating between elections and appointments or are they pretty much the same thing (or is it some secret third thing where someone is appointed and then the high council votes on whether or not to approve that appointment)

‘Brought down president [???] high council single handed’ ‘his own weakness did that five centuries ago’ → you know gallifrey doesn’t really feel like the place that would have political reporters that would be able to bring down administrations (given how we typically see the president talked about), but yet we’ve seen a few examples of this (also mostly including the second quote for some semblance of a timeline, this would have been just before to just around the time romana was a child)

Though there is the whole thing with the timelords rewriting history (whether literally or just the narrative of it) (which does seem to be what they’re using him for here) to make their truth the truth, which probably plays into this somehow

‘Gallifrey was so strong then, so single minded’ → used to be less infighting it seems (that or darkel doing a ‘back in the good old days’ thing here)

Referring to gallifrey with ‘her’ → anthropomorphization of the planet, gallifrey is not just a place that the time lords live, but an entity in of itself

‘In even the oldest and most crumbling parts of the capitol’ → interesting how they refer to it as sacred in earlier parts of this episode, but still there are parts of it that are neglected and allowed to become run down

‘We must foster lions, not sheep’ → so they know what those animals are then

‘Expansionist drivel’ → in response to darkel talking about gallifrey becoming a universal power, i wonder what the different political groups on gallifrey are among the general public, like what does your average gallifreyan or time lord think about time lord politics

‘Clean in the chest, pierced both hearts’ → this may just be a case of there were no sound effects (or that i missed them) to indicate that she stabbed this guy twice, but i was under the impression that she only stabbed that guy once so how was she able to get both his hearts

The other time lords (not on romana’s side) refering to leela as ‘it’ → interesting look at the lack of respect or even personhood she’s given by some, since we rarely get to see the full extent because they’re usually in formal settings and/or around romana so i would think more people would be hesitant to show their true feelings about her, but now they they’re against her openly it doesn’t matter is they show that they don’t see her as a person

Anomaly vault is underground

Vault usually accessed by droid, but people can go in it

‘It’s programmed to adapt, to accommodate fresh content

Seems to be accessed through transmitting inside rather than a door

‘Sector 3301’ → gallifrey divided into sectors i guess, wonder how they have that worked out, it think it’s be cool to see a labled map or something

Also i wonder if the medical station in the outlands was established because of the war, or was there before that (i also just wonder in general what life in the outlands is like, who lives there, how dense is the population out there, what access to resources do they have, stuff like that)

‘Is there any other settlement in that area’ → implies that there are other settlements in the outlands

Chancellery guard uniform ceremonial → this is probably in other parts of my notes, but redundancy can be useful

‘Dangerous things, isolated from the timelines to preserve the structure of the universe. I know of robots that built themselves, a whole clutch of objects propelled through time by zigma energy, and wynter’s tardis of course’ → things that are in the anomaly vault

There’s also a moon in there

Anomaly vault seems to be bigger on the inside

The vault also seems to have systems that are able to function pretty independently and maintain/make choices about where things are to be stored (something something sentient time lord technology

‘It’s controlled through telepathic circuits

I can’t tell if it’s just the way the actor says the name, or if elbon does have a last name, we do encounter a few time lords that have a first and last name instead of one big long one later in the series, but i think he might be the first one (i wonder if that’s a trend among particular houses or chapters, or if it’s just sort of a random thing, my guess would be certain houses do it)

‘Coordinator narvin of your high council’ → okay, so in previous episodes it seems that the high council has just been made up of the president and a handful of cardinals, but then there’s stuff like this, and we also hear about a supreme council, though usually only in reference to the president's title, so is it a case of like councils within councils or something

‘A member of the high council should be good for a spot of sponsorship’ → the implication here being that narvin would be able to pay for some of elbon’s costs of running a medical station, which makes me wonder how well his job pays

They keep making references to the gallifreyan economy, but never enough to really get all that many details out of it and i really want to know how their economy functions

I guess i should put here that doctor is a job you can have on gallifrey, since they’re currently at a medical station talking to a doctor (elbon) (well he also calls himself a medic, wonder if that’s anything of a meaningful distinction, or if they can be used interchangeably here)

I wonder just how different it would be to treat a human rather than a time lord, we know that they have some obvious differences, but they are still both humanoid species

Cia coordinator has access to every restricted file in the capitol and all technology

If narvin’s access codes here are related to his eye scan, how is he able to just give that to elbon

Dermamites → regenerate skin

Medigel → counteracts infection

Artron energy blast is harmful to other species, but can be absorbed by time lords with ‘no ill effects’

There are definitely things to be said here, but at the moment all i’ve got is what the fuck is up with aesino, did they create her or find her somewhere, and why is she hooked up to wynter’s tardis

Narvin describes her as a tool

Apparently she is a specially engineered assassin

Ocular probe → camera used for vidscasts

‘An underground tunnel, it’s why i set up here’ → so that was there before elbon set up his medical station, which begs the question why there was an underground tunnel there in the first place (mining? transport? a secret third thing?)

Sentience in the vault that help contain the anomalies

Romana has become anomalous because pandora stole her first body, but i wonder does that also make pandora a paradox now

‘It doesn’t think at all’ → despite it being referred to at the sentience, would it not have to think for that (something something time lords filling their planet with living technology then refusing to acknowledge that it is actually alive)

Unprotected exposure to the time vortex will pull a person apart

Academy has a security wing
