      I never really understood why beings of chaos would destroy, destruction and death give way to order shouldn't they be aiming for creation and birth? More things tend to cause more chaos.

    • @DyslecticAttack
      @DyslecticAttack Před rokem +120

      ​@@Raximus3000 destruction gives space, space gets filled with noise, noise starts adhering to order. New things and creation gives the most chaos, but only when that new thing has the space. Otherwise a new thing will get absorbed into order, and make the order stronger. Even new creations of destruction will follow that pattern. Once you break through a glass ceiling, the next one is harder to break.
      So yes, new things bring chaos, but only to a ever limiting extend. But destruction, destruction assures a period of chaos, and makes it easier for the young new orders to be disrupted sooner.
      Hence why destruction brings better chaos than creation.

      The problem with the Trickster coming back is that his creator, Gareth Roberts, is a well known bigot at this point and given writers need to ask creators before using recurring characters (eg. Chibnall asking Russell before using the Judoon or asking Moffat for the Weeping Angels) I can’t see the BBC wanting to reach out to Roberts in any capacity. Even if it meant bringing back a fan-favourite villain.

And while the Trickster does require someone's agreement, he doesn't require consent, and has no issues with threatening and scaring and manipulating people into their agreement. The Monks require genuine consent out of love. It's an interesting concept, but not one I could really make a video from.

Either way, they bit off more than they could chew with Donna, and I wish the Doctor had mentioned that to the Trickster when they finally met.
      Davies seems to really like the Trickster as a villain. I'm crossing my fingers that he'll do something super ambitious with the 60th special, and have the Trickster create a timeline in which the First Doctor never left Gallifrey, showing us each Doctor in sequence living an unremarkable Gallifreyan life, as the universe falls to pieces without them.

      Personally think the GA and the Trickster are probably part of the same species of pre-universal Lovecraftian Abominations, or at least, the Trickster is an extremely powerful rouge Eternal who decides to take the Eternal's games much, much further, and perhaps worships the Old Ones and their methods. The Pantheon of Discord could be an alternate name for the Great Old Ones, and the similarity in methods to both the Celestial Toymaker and Fenric (in their use of games, tricks and playing with people for their own ends) rather firmly stamps him in their vamp IMO.

    It’s genuinely crazy how we haven’t seen the trickster since 2009 technically series 8 since he had a little cameo but seriously he’s easily one of the best villains

      In Time Heist, Psi projects a series of criminal records on a wall. They flash by really fast, but the Trickster is one of them. I use part of the clip in my Dalek Tales video because there's a character from the comics that appears among them as well and is featured in Dalek Tales

      The shadows could refer to the thing that killed Elton's mother in "Love And Monsters"
      DOCTOR: There was a shadow in your house. A living shadow in the darkness. An elemental shade had escaped from the Howling Halls. I stopped it, but I wasn't in time to save her. I'm sorry.
      "Howling Halls" could bring things back around to the Eternals again:
      DOCTOR: This is a Void Ship.
      YVONNE: And what is that?
      DOCTOR: Well, it's impossible for starters. I always thought it was just a theory, but it's a vessel designed to exist outside time and space, travelling through the Void.
      RAJESH: And what's the Void?
      DOCTOR: The space between dimensions. There's all sorts of realities around us, different dimensions, billions of parallel universes all stacked up against each other. The Void is the space in between, containing absolutely nothing. Imagine that. Nothing. No light, no dark, no up, no down, no life, no time. Without end. My people called it the Void. The Eternals call it the Howling. But some people call it Hell.

Rani was who Larry Nightingale ended up sharing his Wester Drumlins story with and you can read her article about it in the game. I highly recommend playing it.

  • @johnnysizemore5797

    The way I see it is that the "Trickster" needs Sarah Jane as a latch pin of sorts to get at The Doctor so thanks to Sarah Jane's friend he was able to get "his" hooks into the Doctors "timeline" of sorts, now this is where it gets a little "timey wimmey" on it he uses Jane as a lence to get to the Current Doctor then uses him as a "line starter" and goes backwards all the way to when he's first introduced in the Doctor Who Universe it's a brilliant plan and there's no real way that the Doctor can stop him unless he can save Sarah Jane then maybe we have to watch the current run and see...

    People think that he is "the one who waits" but I have a different argument
    I think he is the person who left Ruby at the church. The costume is very similar, and there are a lot of hints towards Ruby being something more than human. As for the one who waits? Probably Sutekh or Omega. I'd make an argument for the Beast or Rassilon, but they feel too recent, and I don't see why Rassilon would pose such a problem for the Toymaker given that he absolutely demolished the master

    • @TheRantingCynic
      @TheRantingCynic Před 27 dny +3

    Also, I'm not sure if this is relevant but I feel like the Shakri could also be a break off from the Eternals. They also exist outside of time and manipulate the universe. If you want reference, watch The Power of Three from 33:53

Then The Pantheon of Discord are all specifically the bastard children of the Black Guardian created by him either accidentally or on purpose over his unimaginably long life. Chaos creates discord.
