Early life & personality
This article is unfi'ished. Would you 'ike to 'elp 'e 'iki 'y expan'in' i?

The unluckiest possible combination of uninformed, stubborn, gullible and soulless. Arguably the worst thing to happen to /who/ since The Great Summer Schizophrenia of 2020.

No, seriously. By all accounts, the newfag known as Asher seems to be bona fide autistic in a real-world sense, with no prior experience of posting on Hiroshima's playground. Possesses zero understanding of shitposting customs and has no idea how to have fun or type normally. Not even shitting on him is entertaining because of how utterly unaware he is.Likes Nintendo. Of course he does, what the fuck did you expect?

Preyed upon by some anons (or perhaps just the usual suspect, who knows) for his naïveté and ignorance. When talking to or responding to Asher, there is a moderately high probability that you're talking to someone pretending to be him, since his posting style is utterly ridiculous and easy to imitate. Multiple cases of anonymous users pretending to be Asher for their own amusement have been documented. Some poor souls try to guide him towards blending in, but to no avail.

The most persistent anonymous poster of those who believe Asher to be unfit for the general has a special tactic of spamming TARDIS wiki articles about embarrassing/delicious human customs and bodily functions. This seems to be a form of retaliation against Asher's posting style, meant to pressure him into leaving or learning to blend in. Unfortunately, it shits up the general even more. Understandable motivation but stupid methods.

His homosexual admirer Zacko attempts to valiantly protect him at e'ery turn, but his efforts amount to little and his affections seem to be unrequited. In fact, Zacko will probably go as far as to start editing this article out of pure seethe.

Prolific reviewer of fantastic films such as Waters of Mars. Simon BTFO fore'er.

Asher, could you please tell your caretaker/wrangler to blacklist websites such as 4chan on your computer fore'er? It's for your own good, and for ours.

Asher and/or one of his discord buddies is currenlty doing his utmost to shit up the wiki in retaliation to the wiki spam posted the night before.

To summarize, complete guff. Would you like to know more?

Interests

 * Doctor Who
 * Nintendo, particularly Paper Mario

 * Collecting spoons
 * Bed decoration



Plot
 Why, yes, o'anon, if I do say so myself, the apotheosis of my presence and this general cannot be achieved, e'er, for my ingenuity and o'erly prolific and enlightened discussions must ne'er end. 'tis good, yes? Might I ask you about the hue of the shine of the apostrophes of my asshole? I would argue it is a tad too sparkly, though that can be reasoned as intentional and not lessening its excellence.

Rape was non-consensual sex, usually effected through violence.

In the 1st century BC, it was common practice for Roman soldiers to rape women before killing them in order to instil fear in the places they conquered. Erimem killed se'eral Roman soldiers and later expressed to Andy Hansen that if she hadn't, they likely would have raped her and Andy before murdering them. Later, Anna Whitaker was nearly raped by drunk men because she had turned down the lewd advances of one man the previous night. (PROSE: The Last Pharaoh)

In 60, Boudica, the Queen of the Iceni, rebelled against the Roman Empire when Roman agents raped the women of her kingdom. Her rebellion was swift and brutal: the offending Romans were, according to John Smith, "skinned alive and impaled on posts with their intestines... in their mouths".

During an incident in the village of Sair, Peri Brown had bedded with Tablibik whilst under his spell. The spell in question was the sole cause of any sense of desire Peri had torwards him, meaning that any sexual acts that they may have engaged in that night could not have been considered consensual. (PROSE: Fascination)

On 28 March 1963, 17-year old Lizzie Lewis was raped and murdered on the way home by Ed Morgan, the man whom she had just been to a dance with. (TV: Ghost Machine)

Dodo Chaplet was nearly raped by one of her fellow patients at the Glasshouse, probably in 1966. She cried out for help, but neither her fellow patients or the facility's staff would assist her. Instead, she had to defend herself against his violence. To stop him tearing at her gown and trying to force himself on her, she kicked him in the face. He stumbled backwards, and cracked his head on a table. Her would-be rapist died within a matter of moments. (PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy)

Sometime around 2006, Oswald Danes was convicted in Kentucky of raping and murdering a 12-year-old girl. (TV: The New World)

Michael Hughes date-raped Serena. Tyler Steele noted that the Sorvix found sexual assault particularly abominable despite their tolerance of other atrocities. (AUDIO: Tagged)

A penis, also known as a "cock", was a reproductive organ.

Papul villagers on Jenggel wore leaves and vegetable gourds o'er their penises "to show power in bed". (PROSE: Combat Rock)

One of the guests to Scarlette and the Eighth Doctor's wedding in 1782 wore a mask with a nose that was "suggestively long and erect". (PROSE: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)

Sarah Jane once kicked Jack Cooper in the groin after he threatened to kill her. (PROSE: Amorality Tale)

When a male MIAOW assassin approached Fitz Kreiner from behind and shoved the barrel of a gun into his back, Fitz joked that the assassin either "had a gun wedged right into [his] ribcage" or was "extremely pleased to see [him]". (PROSE: Mad Dogs and Englishmen)

Gwen Cooper once threatened to knee Jack Harkness in the groin if he was joking about the current situation. (PROSE: Border Princes) Jack himself would later taunt Owen Harper about his penis size, claiming that, "You're in charge, Owen? You gotta have significantly bigger balls." (TV: End of Days)

After Rachel Edwards started writing for the New Progressive, "creepy blokes" started following her and sending her pictures of their genitalia. One sent her photoshopped pictures of her decapitated head with his "cock" in her mouth. (PROSE: Head of State)

The  vagina , derogatorily referred to as a "fanny", was a reproductive organ. Sanitary pads were used near vaginas. (PROSE: Hospitality) In biology class, Dave Wilson once tried to appear innocent after looking up the word "vagina" in the dictionary five times in one afternoon. He shouted the word in silly voices and giggled while pointed at the girls in the class. Sam Jones responded by throwing a heavy biology textbook at him. (PROSE: Placebo Effect) Wally Saddler joked that Christian Leemark should give "sexy answers" to Amy Cowan's Rorschach tests, saying they looked like "gaping vagina[s]". (PROSE: Warchild)

  'Breasts ', or boobs, (AUDIO: The Veiled Leopard, PROSE: Iris Wildthyme and the Polythene Terror) bosoms[1][2], (TV: The Curse of Fatal Death) doo-dahs, (AUDIO: The Resurrection of Mars) or more offensively known as tits, (TV: Combat) were organs commonly found on human females. Circular in shape, nipples were located on the centre front of breasts. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Warhead) Unfortunately, it was possible for breasts to have cancer, which could be fatal. (AUDIO: Hostile Environment. Breast implants were composed of plastic. (TV: Rose) Serena had "enormous, unforgiving breasts" which she co'ered with a cardigan. (PROSE: I Am a Dalek)

 Faeces , (PROSE: The Dying Days) also known as poo (AUDIO: Oh No It Isn't!) and excrement (AUDIO: The Next Life), was solid or semisolid waste produced by se'eral species in the process of defecation. It consisted of food components which could not be digested, and thus were expelled from the body. (PROSE: The Dying Days)

In 1599, residents of Southwark dumped buckets of faeces and urine out of their windows, as indoor plumbing was not yet widespread. To warn passersby, the residents would shout "Gardez l'eau!", French for "Watch out for the water!". Martha Jones and the Tenth Doctor encountered such a situation on their first adventure together. Although they narrowly avoided being hit, the Doctor still felt obliged to apologise. (The Shakespeare Code)

In 1814, Lord Sutcliffe employed dredgers to collect the faeces of a sea serpent under the River Thames. It was said to burn longer and hotter than coal, along with being able to burn underwater. Sutcliffe kept the serpent captive in order to continue harvesting the faeces. (TV: Thin Ice)

Another encounter with the faeces of sea creatures occurred in 2009. Whilst under the Se'ern Bridge, Gwen Cooper saw what she referred to as a "carpet of grey stuff", which was later revealed to be fish faeces. Carlie noted that this substance was oft' referred to euphemistically with the phrase "marine snow". (AUDIO: Submission)

Many considered the stench of faeces o'erpowering. (PROSE: The Pit) Howe'er, some species, such as Tritovores, ate the faeces of other species to survive. The Tenth Doctor noted to Christina de Souza that this was "perfectly natural" to them, indicating a cultural divide between Tritovores and humans of her time. (TV: Planet of the Dead)

Whilst travelling on The Motorway of New New York, Cheen and Milo recycled "all waste products" into food, including faeces. They offered Martha a biscuit made from this waste, which she promptly discarded upon learning of its composition. (TV: Gridlock)

 HIV/AIDS  was a contagious, fatal disease (PROSE: Vampire Science, Cat's Cradle: Warhead) that began to spread on Earth sometime between the 1970s and the 1990s. (PROSE: Verdigris, The Taint) Henry Spencer became "one of the first British men to be killed by complications due to AIDS" in 1983. (PROSE: Who Killed Kennedy) By the early 21st century, there were se'eral variants of the disease, including HIV7. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Warhead) Blood tests for HIV became compulsory on 11 November 2014. (PROSE: Damaged Goods)

 Manure  was organic waste used for agricultural fertiliser. The Third Doctor, while visiting West Yorkshire, negotiated a trade agreement between Martin Chisom and a metal bug. Chisom would allow the bug to live in his forcing shed and provide it with manure. In exchange, the bug would supply "the tenderest rhubarb in the galaxy, grown at a rate unheard of on Earth." (AUDIO: Lost in the Wakefield Triangle)

 Sex '' - also known as shagging, (AUDIO: The Iris Wildthyme Appreciation Society, PROSE: Happy Endings) hooking up, (PROSE: Rory's Stag) and how's-your-father (AUDIO: Visiting Hours, Serenity) - was an action performed by two or more people. Foreplay was an activity that sometimes was a precursor to sex. (AUDIO: The Iris Wildthyme Appreciation Society) Some individuals such as Roz Forrester decided in their youth that sex didn't offer anything that Martian ale didn't. (PROSE: The Also People)

It was a method of biological reproduction for many species. According to the Referee, an android visiting Earth, human breeding was "positively vile, and sort of thrilling", comparable to cruelty. (AUDIO: Moving Target) On the Homeworld, their connection to history through the anchoring of the thread rendered them sterile. Thus for millions of years the concept of sex, like space, was considered irrelevant. The Great Houses reproduced through the use of breeding engines.

Howe'er, shortly before the War this changed and natural childbirth occurred through experimentation with House bio-stock and genetic material from the lesser species. House Xianthellipse started breeding soldiers instead of growing them. Even the 103-form timeships were created through a process akin to sex, with the female timeships "mated" to specially made bull-engines. (PROSE: The Book of the War)

Sex was also a related but distinct term to gender, (AUDIO: Neon Reign, PROSE: Human Nature, Something in the Water) and a trait which could usually be identified even long after death, though some specimens were nearer the artificial line drawn between them. (TV: Greeks Bearing Gifts) Addressing humankind shortly before the Battle of Canary Wharf, Cyber-Leader One announced that their upgrade to cyber-form would remove, among other things, sex. (TV: Doomsday)

 Virginity'  was the state of not e'er having had sex. Virginity was long associated with purity, innocence and cleanliness. (PROSE: The Murder Game, Virgin Lands) Many cultures expected their females to remain virgins until marriage. (PROSE: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street) In keeping with this viewpoint, a tapestry in the sewers of a human colony depicted a female virgin in long, white robes with a sleeping dragon at her feet. (PROSE: The Menagerie) For men, on the other hand, it was a source of embarrassment. (TV: The Satan Pit) In fact, an early-19th-century soldier hired a prostitute likely after getting teased by his peers for ne'er having had sex. (TV: Greeks Bearing Gifts)

According to one account, from a literal standpoint, the Doctor did not have sex until his eighth incarnation. (PROSE: The Dying Days; AUDIO: Benny's Story) In his book on the end of the Last Great Time War, the future incarnation of the Doctor known as the Curator noted that thinking the Doctor was a virgin was a popular misconception, but reminded his readership that the notion was nonsensical, as, after all, he had a granddaughter. (PROSE: The Day of the Doctor)

The posterior, (TV: Regeneration) individually   'buttocks ', (TV: The Coach with the Dragon Tattoo) colloquially referred to as one's behind, (TV: Planet of the Dead) backside, (TV: Rosa) bum, (AUDIO: No More Lies) butt, (TV: The Korven) booty, (TV: Aliens of London) arse, (TV: End of Days) ass, (TV: Combat) or gluteus maximus (AUDIO: No More Lies) was the rear end of humanoid life forms, and many other bipeds or quadrupeds. As well as depositing bodily wastes and gasses, the buttocks were also a common focal point of sexuality.

While talking about men with Gwyneth, Rose Tyler said she liked a "good smile" and a "nice bum". (TV: The Unquiet Dead) After psychografting herself into Rose's body, Cassandra O'Brien took great pleasure in examining her "nice rear bumper", slowly stroking her newfound posterior with one hand. (TV: New Earth) Toby Zed admired his "view" of Rose's backside whilst crawling through the air ducts of Sanctuary Base 6. (TV: The Satan Pit) Gwen Cooper complimented her boyfriend Rhys Williams on his "nice arse" while watching him get out of bed naked. (TV: End of Days) Minnie Hooper took the opportunity to squeeze the Tenth Doctor's bottom as he had a photograph taken with the Silver Cloak group, following it up by patting his backside. (TV: The End of Time) Miss Quill admired Coach Dawson's buttocks. (TV: The Coach with the Dragon Tattoo)

 Cancer  was a class of diseases among humans and other species. It was characterised by uncontrolled division of cells and the ability of these cells to invade other tissues. This unregulated growth was caused by damage to DNA, resulting in mutations to genes that controlled cell division. If untreated, cancers could kill its host. Cancer could respond to chemotherapy, or other treatments, and go into remission. (TV: The Woman Who Fell to Earth)

Cancer cells were even sometimes considered to be immortal. As a result, there was a rumour spreading during Miracle Day that, since e'erything mortal became immortal, cancer cells became mortal, which Allen Shapiro took as a good enough excuse to start smoking again. (TV: End of the Road)

 Suicide  was the act of killing of one's self. If it was done for the benefit of others, it was called self-sacrifice. Many robots, such as K9 and the Pain-Maker, were built with a self-destruct function. This usually resulted in an explosion. (TV: Regeneration, Robot Gladiators, Hound of the Korven) Cyborgs such as Daleks could also self-destruct. (TV: Remembrance of the Daleks, Dalek, Asylum of the Daleks, COMIC: Extermination of the Daleks)

 Can You Hear Me?  was the seventh episode of series 12 of Doctor Who. It extended on the ongoing story arc of "the Timeless Child" a bit further, by showing the Doctor in the middle of her vision previously seen in Spyfall: Part Two. The episode touched on the subject of mental health, which prompted the inclusion of a BBC Action Line tag at the end of the episode upon its original broadcast.

What connects the nightmares of a young girl from 1380 Aleppo to strange happenings in the present day? Who is the shadowy figure who appears in the night? And what have they got to do with a young woman in the far future, trapped in an impossible prison? Time catches up with the Doctor's friends, whose wants and dreams are set on colliding. They must now embark on a mission that will draw out their innermost fears, to be confronted.

According to secret information found by the Master in the depths of the Matrix, Tecteun was a Shobogan and one of the first inhabitants of Gallifrey to explore other planets. After becoming the foster-parent of the Timeless Child, a mysterious being whom the Master believed to have eventually become the Doctor, they extracted the regeneration code from their Child, splicing it into their own body and into other Shobogans'. In the process, Tecteun became one of the Founding Fathers of Gallifrey.

 Comprehension deficiency  - Ronan and Yasmin Khan complained of experiencing comprehension deficiency due to the Thirteenth Doctor's babbling. (TV: The Tsuranga Conundrum)

 Insanity  was a condition of mental instability in sentient beings. It was colloquially referred to as madness or going crazy. According to the Fourth Doctor, "There is no great genius without some touch of madness." (AUDIO: The Crowmarsh Experiment)

Guilana, the Doctor's therapist in a parallel universe, told Bernice Summerfield that those in her profession preferred not to use the word "insane". (AUDIO: Asking for a Friend)

Gideon Crane, believing himself to be the Doctor, asserted that "madness" was simply a matter of one person's reality not agreeing with another's own reality. In such cases, one or both of them was said to be mad, whereas two people experiencing a shared delusion, or both deceived, might well call themselves sane. (AUDIO: Minuet in Hell)

 Reservoir of evil ' - the physical world existed alongside a concentration of pain and fear that Dr Colin Dove believed was the manifestation of real evil. Some places, termed leprous houses by the Bible, acted as synapses between this force and the physical world. Dr Dove termed it a "river of evil" or a "reservoir of pain".

This force existed on a higher plane and went undetected by most, although sensitives were able to sense it to varying degrees. At synapses, the force could influence and even control sensitives, causing them to commit murder and granting them some supernatural powers such as astral projection. The two worlds were closest at perihelion in August.

"Fear Her" - Two kids Dale Hicks and Tom are playing football in Tom's yard on Dame Kelly Holmes Close. Elderly Maeve Griffiths walks by and tells them to get inside quickly, prompting Tom's dad to exit the house and demand to know why she's disturbing the kids. Maeve tells the father that 'it" likes seeing them play. Watching from her first floor room across the street is a little girl. She begins drawing Dale with coloured pencils. As Maeve and the father keep arguing, Dale suddenly vanishes. Elsewhere, the girl has finished her drawing of Dale, which comes to life and screams in horror: she's trapped him inside her picture! In her room, the girl sees her picture of Dale scowling in anger at her. She tells him that she tried to cheer him up by giving him a friend - a ginger cat. Howe'er, he's still unhappy, just like all the other kids in her drawings. After making a mistake in her next drawing, the girl furiously scribbles o'er it...

 Farting ' was oft' frowned upon by humans, due to its foul smell and loud noise. Many humans, howe'er, thought farting humorous. (TV: Revenge of the Slitheen) Sayings associated with farting included "[they] who smelt it dealt it", "[they] who said the rhyme committed the crime" and "[they] who said the verse made the atmosphere worse." (TV: From Raxacoricofallapatorius with Love)

Se'eral stock farting noises are played constantly alongside quotes by Blon Fel-Fotch Passameer-Day Slitheen in the web-based game Slitheen Surfer. In Monster Match, a fart sounds when the player matches the Slitheen.

John Barrowman and David Tennant used to hold fart contests much to the annoyance and disgust of Freema Agyeman.

In Kate Gordon's 2017 novel Twenty-five Memories of Viggo MacDuff, Jed moans to Connie Chase that the Beezus-juice "smells like the fart of an Abzorbaloff", a reference to the scene from Love & Monsters in which the Abzorbaloff farts on Bliss' face.

In the Doctor Who Farted sketch from Family Guy, the Tenth Doctor broke wind in his TARDIS.

The  gas exchange  was a condition experienced by members of the Raxacoricofallapatorian Slitheen family whilst disguised in human skin suit via a compression field, caused by skin compression. Accompanied by a foul smell and loud noise, the gas exchange was similar to the human condition of farting but, as Harriet Jones observed, it did "not just smell like a fart" but also like bad breath, a symptom of calcium decay, Raxacoricofallapatorians being a calcium-based species. (TV: Aliens of London/World War Three, Revenge of the Slitheen) A gas exchange unit was a piece of technology worn by Slitheen. (AUDIO: Madquake) They eventually solved this problem, as well as becoming able to fit into slimmer skin suits. (TV: The Lost Boy)

 Pungency  - A smell or a taste could be pungent: so strong, sharp or powerful that it was unpleasant. When smelling something pungent, one would oft' "purse [their] lips [and] flare [their] nostrils", (PROSE: Pass It On) or "wrinkle [their] nose". (PROSE: Sunday Afternoon, AD 848,988) Such an experience could also provoke one to throw up. (PROSE: Hymn of the City) A pungent smell in the air could indicate that an area was being gassed, perhaps with poison. (PROSE: Wish You Were Here)

One such smell was when something was "fishy", (PROSE: Tragedy Day) like the pungent odour of "mint and fish". (PROSE: Have You Tried Turning It Off and Then Back On Again?) Another pungent mixture was "paint, ozone and fruit". (PROSE: Honest Living) Strong aromas within a vegetarian diet that could be considered pungent were turnip and mangel wurzel, while the strong smell of cooking meat could have a similar effect. (PROSE: Autaia Pipipi Pia) Brad Travers considered clam chowder to be pungent. (PROSE: Inmate 280)

A "rotting vegetable smell", such as that produced by chlorophyll, was incredibly pungent to Barbara Wright, and, according to her, remained in Ian Chesterton's science classroom long after his students had cleared out. (PROSE: Nothing at the End of the Lane)

Some types of cheese could be pungent, such as a moon truffle of Junfoot albino goat's cheese, which was churned beneath a blue moon, and left to mature for sixty years. The yellow-rinded cheese had an odour which "seeped almost visibly through its wrapping". (PROSE: Seven Deadly Sins) Quite pungent.

Victoria Waterfield found that cows had a pungent smell, (PROSE: On a Pedestal) and the Seventh Doctor found the Kortani reeked of "bloodlust" in their enzymes. (PROSE: Peaceable Kingdom) The Ameteli were easily identified by their pungent smell of bodily gasses. (COMIC: Love is in the Air) Raxacoricofallapatorian farts smelled like bad breath, or calcium decay. (TV: World War Three)

The breath of one police officer was described as pungent. (PROSE: Verdigris) Chemicals such as ozone could have pungent odours, as well. (PROSE: Tragedy Day) Smoke could be both sweet and pungent. (PROSE: That Which Went Away) River water could also be a pungent smell, especially when associated with unpleasant memories, (PROSE: Blue Road Dance) or if particularly muddy. (PROSE: Midnight in the Café of the Black Madonna)

A   'blood clot ' was a solidified mass of blood that formed in a person, typically from injuries. When a clot ended up in a major organ, it could cut off blood flow and end up being fatal.

In the 22nd century, Miranda Cleaves developed "a very deep parietal clot". Her ganger also possessed this condition which manifested in the form of headaches in both Cleaves and would inevitably become fatal. In the 22nd century, Cleaves' clot was inoperable on Earth. Though Cleaves had seen doctors about her headaches before a solar storm brought the Gangers to life, she had not yet received the test results. After scanning Cleaves with his sonic screwdriver, the Ganger Doctor was able to diagnose the problem. After the Ganger Doctor stated that it was inoperable on Earth, Cleaves realised that he was not who he claimed. She later revealed the truth to her ganger self. After the crisis was o'er, Cleaves asked the Eleventh Doctor about her clot and the Doctor provided her with clot dissolving medicine from his TARDIS that would dissolve the clot. (TV: The Almost People)

Human sacrifice was a religious act performed by, among others, the Aztecs. According to the Eleventh Doctor, who vaguely cited scientific studies, it was very good for the crops. (HOMEVID: Rain Gods)

Barbara Wright wanted to use her power as an Aztec leader to end the practice, but the First Doctor told her not to alter history. (TV: The Aztecs)

In 1891, the Hecate Cult performed its last human sacrifice in Moreton Harwood. (TV: A Girl's Best Friend)

In the 1970s, the Master attempted to sacrifice Jo Grant to Azal, but the Third Doctor rescued her. (TV: The Dæmons)

On 21 December 1981, the Hecate Cult attempted to sacrifice Brendan Richards but were stopped by Sarah Jane Smith and K9. (TV: A Girl's Best Friend)

The witches of Talderun planned to sacrifice Peri Brown to Shara, but she was freed by Yal Rom. (AUDIO: Nekromanteia)

Urine, colloquially referred to as piss or pee, was a liquid expelled from the body as a way of ridding toxins.

Convicted rapist and killer Oswald Danes claimed that guards were putting urine in his food in jail. Although they co'ered it with things like cream and gravy, he could still taste the urine, for, as he put it, "[piss] has a way of enduring". (TV: The New World)

On 6 June 1780, Newgate Prison was burnt down in the Gordon Riots, and released mental patients stood on the windowsills and urinated into the flames. (PROSE: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
