Hi there!!! I’m a participant in the OC bingo and I got a couple questions for Renzo!☺️

Does Renzo have any favorite bands?

Would Renzo date Peter Parker if given the chance?

Who do they think would have their back if everyone else turned on them?

(Sorry if my questions are confusing, words aren’t my gift when it’s meant in questions)

Hope you’re having a good day/night!🥰

Hi there and awesome!

Renzo tends to like some of the more retro rock bands, especially since during the Snap, Rocket let them keep Quil’s zune for the 5 years everyone was dusted. So they got introduced to lot of classic “dad” rock. They particularly love Queen, The Who, Pink Floyd, The Kinks, and The Go-Gos.

Honestly…yes. Not that they ever admit it. They don’t think that Peter would ever feel the same way about them. They’d rather sit on the sideline and see him happy with someone else than cross that boundary…

And Peter and their parents, Bucky and Nat. They would be ride or die and do everything to prove their innocence.

let’s say that Bucky has experience dealing with Renzo’s particular kind of nonsense due to all of the insanity Steve put him through back in the 30s and 40s

Introducing: Renzo Barnes aka REVENANT

"Oh honey you shouldn't have~..."

The current unwilling avatar of the conveniently slumbering grandmama of all eldritch abominations and the abstract personification of discord itself: KHAOS. Renzo is the resident ultra dramatic, full-tilt diva of the Avengers (well, co-full-tilt divas with Stark) who loves more than anything to mess with people, beat the shit out of nazis (along with so-called “realists” who are nothing more than nazis in a trenchcoat with an anatomically-incorrect symbol), and be the most well-dressed bitch on the team~✨. With both a lust for life and a lust for blood, Renzo is the one you call upon when you need a bit more fire power to take of particularly stubborn enemies; supernatural or otherwise. Now the thing to know about them is that they usually like to “play with their food” and tend to not take things so seriously. However, if you manage to actually piss them off you better pick a God and pray that they finish you off quick instead of taking their sweet time with it. There are worse things than death after all…Normally when they’re not doing the odd superhero work around New York, you can find them either hanging out and having overdrawn fan discussions about the Star Wars prequels with one Peter Parker at their apartment near Empire State University or arguing with Eddie Brock and whining about the listicles they have to write as a Daily Globe intern for their day job. That or practicing for the current semester play their drama department is putting on. Also they tend to help out their “Grandpa” Alexei with some totally “legal” missions much to their mother and father’s chagrin along with teaching Morgan new and exciting swear words in both English, Spanish and Voidspeak to mess with Stark~✌️✨

Skin color: brown skin with a reddish, summer undertone

Hair: black, full-bodied, spiky and wavy, mid-length hair with 3 distinct cowlicks

Powers: Mediumship, Retrocognition, Empath Abilities, Umbrakinesis, Pyrokinesis, Shapeshifting, Flight/Levitation, Chaos Magic, Teleportation, Enhanced Speed/Strength/Healing Factor

Likes: Iced Coffee, High Fashion, sunglasses (especially if they’re heart-shaped), cheesy 80s movies, old musicals, watching old musicals and movies with Barnes, vintage fashion, charcoal (when you’re the KHAOS proxy you get “interesting” cravings…), hamburgers, french fries, salty foods in general, pocky, bad horror movies, anime, manga, broadway musicals, drama, drama (again but this time it’s theater-related), performing, singing, hot vampires, trying to hook up with vampires and get the big titty goth gf vamp gf of their dreams, gossiping, beating the shit out of and killing nazis/hydra agents/fascists, ABBA, disco in general (is pissed off that they were never around for the 70s and 80s), citypop, messing with Flash Thompson, messing with Mary-Beth Asger (ex-member of a “Christian” cult/proxy to KHAOS’ equally “slumbering” counterpart of Order, who honestly hasn’t completely stopped believing everything that she was taught even though admittedly she’s gotten better and is still your stereotypical, pompous, “nice white girl”), flirting, knives, messing with General Ross, getting to “let loose” (AKA letting their murderous impulses run wild on nazis), messing with “Tio Tony,” constantly shoving in “Tio Tony’s” face that they’d totally be “Team Cap” if they were around for the Airport Fight, honestly just messing with people in general.

Dislikes: egg creams (no matter how hard Barnes tries to make them like it, they refuse to drink it and they think that it’s nasty), ghosts, being able to see ghosts, their “Seer” powers overall, nazis/hydra/fascists, cults, other eldritch abominations in the AMARANTHINE (court of eldritch abominations that KHAOS is technically the head of), KHAOS because they have to clean up their (KHAOS’) messes, Christian cults (i.e. Evangelicals, Fundamentalists), terfs, boring people, boring movies, when people try to pick on Peter and Ned, having to write “listicles” for the Daily Globe, Blade constantly dashing their big titty goth vamp gf dreams

Personality: Theatrical, petty, vengeful, crafty, mischievous, sarcastic, but surprisingly compassionate, and empathetic (whether they like it or not). When not acting like they're trying to go for a Tony award in a notable revival of a classic production, they can be pretty out-there with a little bit of the uncanny valley mixed in. Not to mention, they can be also pretty laid-back and nonchalant; especially when dealing with villains trying for the umpteenth time to take over New York. Additionally, and not surprisingly, due to their background, they can be rather cynical and distrusting; however over the years they have been slowly but surely trying to look more at the bright side of things and give people the benefit of the doubt. However, God forbid you actually piss them off though, because that's when their sadistic side comes out. When that happens, you better pick a God and pray that they decide to kill you at all, let alone kill you quick...

Love Interest: Peter Parker

Bio: Renzo has never had the best time growing up. Born a "Seer" or otherwise known as a medium, they've always been able to see ghosts to their utter displeasure. However, they were the only one in their bio family that could see ghosts and thus was written off as an "insane" problem child by said family. Heavily medicated and then eventually abandoned after the death of their bio parents, Renzo was forced into the foster system at the age of 9. However that didn't last long, as Renzo eventually ran away and the then impressionable 10 year old fell into the clutches of Dr. Darius Titus Solomon and the Esoteric Cult of the Maverick. After being love-bombed to heck and back by Solomon due to their Seer "gifts," Renzo soon became enthralled with him and would literally do whatever Solomon wanted: including becoming an assassin for him.

However that all came to an end when Renzo found out that they were nothing more than a sacrifice and after inadvertently getting their revenge and unwanted new powers, they ran away to New York and became a part of the Parker Family. From there, they went to space, survived the snap, grieved their loss and ended up unexpectedly bonding with James "Bucky" Barnes and Natasha Romanoff. So much so, that a couple of years later after the Snap, Barnes and Romanoff (who ended up getting married themselves) adopted them, and then later on adopted RJ and then Kobik. Now years later, after helping to kick Thanos' ass, losing their memory of Peter and then regaining it; they're currently just trying to survive college and their internship at the Daily Globe, along with dealing with some "interesting" feelings concerning their best friend...

“Fun” Facts:

When they were formally adopted by Barnes and Romanoff, they decided to offer their new parents a chance to give them a middle name to help them better get a clean slate. Romanoff ended up deciding to use “Yelena” to honor her (still dusted at the time) sister, and thus Renzo officially became Renzo Yelena Barnes-Romanoff.

They are the absolute epitome of a theater kid and helped to run the drama club at Midtown High with an iron fist.

They were also surprisingly part of the Midtown High cheer squad and tended to do most of the acrobatic stunts when on the team.

They absolutely detest their mediumship and empath abilities due to making their early life a literal, living hell. It’s not fun when ghosts that only you can see have forgotten the meaning of “no” and try to turn you into their own personal “errand boy” after all. Especially when your own family thinks you’re insane and need to be institutionalized. Not to mention in terms of their empath abilities, it took a long, long time for them to finally get a hold of them. Before they would heavily get overwhelmed by other people’s emotions to the point that it would even influence their own. Though nowadays, if they’re not careful they can still get overwhelmed; especially in a crowd.

Going hand-in-hand with the previously mentioned empath powers: When Thanos first enacted the Snap, they could feel the devastating, vast loss of life in the same way Mantis could...

When they first escaped the Esoteric Order of the Maverick, they lived on the streets for a while trying to avoid any remaining members by constantly traveling. They were 12 when they came to Queens and ran into a sympathetic May Parker who after realizing that they had trauma-related to the foster system, made it her mission to coax Renzo into a stable home environment. It took her over 5 months but she and Peter were finally able to coax them into living with them.

For the longest time before the “Blip” they were basically known as “Parker’s weird, little ‘brother’.”

Has a petty feud with Peter over who’s taller. Back when they were 12, obviously Peter was taller, but then after the Blip, Renzo was the new reigning champ of height. However, during college Peter got a growth spurt and managed to get a couple of inches on them. To which, Renzo immediately used their shapeshifting powers to make them exactly 1 inch taller than Peter.

One of their most precious possessions is an old, black hoodie that Peter gave to them when they first met, after seeing the shivering, pre-teen, ex-assassin in the rain in an alley behind his and May’s apartment. It’s pretty much has become a comfort object for them and they even still wear it around their apartment sometimes to Peter’s surpise no matter how ratty it’s gotten. Even when they lost their memory of Peter, they still kept it and couldn’t bear to get rid of it, even if they couldn’t remember why exactly it was so important to them...

Another valuable possession of theirs was an old burner, flip phone that they had from their days in the cult that during the 2 years they lived with Peter and May became filled with pictures of them, Ned, and MJ. For the longest time it was a symbol of them overcoming their past as a killer and healing from it, and then during the 5 years after the “Blip,” it became a symbol of mourning for them. They ended up using it however on Vormir as a loophole since it was “something” they loved, by throwing it over the edge in order to prevent their mom from sacrificing herself.

Speaking of their time during the “Blip,” they ended up inadvertently going on a “revenge roadtrip” across the western United States with Barnes, Romanoff, Logan, Wade, W’Kabi, and a teenaged Dora Milaje in training called Thandiwe. Basically when they were 16, they found out to their horror, the Order was starting to gain power again, so they were trying to stomp out all of their hideouts during their summer break. At one of said hideouts they ran into Barnes and Romanoff who were trying to wipe out any Hydra remnants, W’Kabi (who was sent out as a War Dog as penance for his betrayal of T’Challa) and Thandiwe (who was also there to keep an eye on him) who were tracking down illegally trafficked vibranium, and Logan and a teenaged Wade, who were trying to get revenge on people in involved in the “Weapon X” program. There all of them found out that they were basically dealing with a “quadfecta” of evil, where the cult and hydra were working together with illegal vibranium and experimenting on mutants to create human weapons. From there they all decided to work together so they can all make sure that all factions of that network were taken down.

During this time, this was also where they, Barnes, and Romanoff first met Kobik, when they came across a mysterious town called “Pleasant Hill”...

For the 5 years after the “Blip” they also became “Night Spinner” as a way to honor Peter, where they even used Peter’s old, original, homemade Spider-Man hoodie. They felt that New York needed a Spider-Man and while they felt they were a poor replacement, they still felt that it was necessary. Stark even hooked up a version of Karen with their outfit too.

A 14 year old Renzo also was given Peter Quil’s zune by Rocket during the “Blip” years due to them reminding Rocket and Kraglin of Quil. During the time they were stranded in space waiting for a rescue with Stark and Nebula, Renzo found the zune and started using it a lot to distract themself. After recovering a bit when they got back to Earth, they tried giving it back to Rocket and Kraglin, who ended up telling them to keep it. For the next 5 years Renzo took care of it and was almost never seen without it Obviously when everyone came back after the final defeat of Thanos, Renzo gave the zune back to Quil; albeit with some extra future funk additions~

To their horror (well more like embarrassment and annoyance), they found out that they were the illegitimate nephew/niece (nephice? niecephew? we really need to come up with something gender neutral that’s not nibling) of Tony Stark when they were 20 during a routine medical checkup at the Avengers complex. Apparently Howard Stark had a bit too much fun in Mexico during the late 70s which ended up producing Renzo’s biological mother. Nobody in their bio family knew about it; not even their egg donor and their bio maternal grandmother took that secret with her to her grave.

Is basically (one-sided) sitcom nemeses with Blade due to the fact that Blade keeps killing all of the hot vampires that they kept trying to hook up with.

Currently has undiagnosed BPD [Borderline Personality Disorder]

Still has “Girls Nights” with Wade and a reluctant Peter.

Constantly gets harassed by KHAOS’ cult and their [KHAOS'] “children” who think that they’re “literally” KHAOS who’s just “playing one of their silly little games with them...”

Can be “bound” via very specific casting sigils/circles which are normally used to essentially put them in a “time out” where they can’t leave until the spell burns out.

Was unfortunately used by Peter to prevent a rage-filled Renzo from murdering Norman Osbourne after Peter spared him, and later prevent a despondent Renzo from stopping him having Strange erase everyone’s memory of him...

When they first went to Empire State University (at age 20 after taking a gap year or two) and still couldn’t remember Peter, they ironically got paired up with him (who after getting his GED and applying like crazy for student aid, scholarships, FAFSA, etc. was able to qualify for student housing) in the dorms. They didn’t understand why they had an immediate camaraderie with him, why Parker always seem to know what they liked, and why they liked spending time with him so much (nor why Parker always looked like he was in pain and about to cry whenever they were spending time together...)

Regained their memory of Peter when a second Spider-Verse event occurred and due to their stint as “Night Spinner” they technically counted as a “Spider-Person.” Peter had been kidnapped by the “Inheritors” and while spending time with Peter 2 and 3 who were confused as to why Renzo didn’t remember them and Peter 1, something in their mind snapped when they tried to think about certain things that didn’t make sense about their “roommate.” That was when after having the absolute worst headache of their life, they finally remembered who Peter was and was absolutely pissed that he went through with erasing their and everyone else’s memory of him. Basically after one-shoting of the Inheritors who were holding their Peter hostage, they initiated a fight with him out of feeling betrayed and the fact that it made them feel like Peter didn’t trust them enough. They did eventually make up though; though Peter had to deal with everyone else remembering who he was since Renzo brute-forcing through Strange’s spell helped MJ, Ned, Happy, and all of his other loved ones remember him. Well at least no one else remembered that he was Spider-man at least...)

While Peter, Ned and MJ went on the school trip to Europe, “lucky” Renzo and Mary-Beth got trapped within Westview and got to be “special guests” on Wandavision due to being in the wrong place and the wrong time (aka Renzo went with Mary-Beth to look at colleges in the Jersey area against their will and only intended to stop in Westview to get something to eat when Wanda had her mental breakdown). Strangely though, while both of them were still forced to follow Wanda’s unconscious machinations, they still retained more of their free will than other Wandavision “cast members”...

Obviously the universe that they occupy has a lot of things go differently than the main MCU universe. For example, instead of Bucky, Sam, and Shuri being one of the people dusted, Steve and Sarah Wilson get dusted instead and Shuri has to try and run Wakanda by herself without her brother nor her mother. Also Alexei doesn’t get dusted either and has to deal without having Melina and Yelena with him.

And since his sister got dusted while leaving her sons alone, Sam had to step up and move down to Louisiana to take care of his nephews (with Bucky and Nat becoming an honorary uncle and aunt).

Also Bucky and Tony managed to begrudgingly come to an understanding and while they’re not “friends” per say Tony doesn’t want to kill him anymore and doesn’t blame him for his parents deaths. He still wants to slap Rogers though...

Of course Bucky and Nat become closer and end up dating and eventually married.

Nat and Tony don’t die. Renzo uses a loophole on Voromir to prevent their mom from sacrificing herself and since Tony “shares’ the load of the Infinity Stones with Nebula (who was the one actually wearing the glove) and with a powered-up Renzo and Mary-Beth (basically another Seer who was a proxy to a slumbering eldritch creature: this time KHAOS’ counterpart: KOSMOS, who was the personification of order/ frenemy of Renzo). Tony still ended up in a coma for a couple of years, and Nebula almost died and was out of commission for a couple of months. Same with Renzo and Mary-Beth.

Also Sam and Steve get married as well when the Blip is reversed and Steve doesn’t go back in time to be with Peggy. Sam still becomes the new Captain America though, and Steve becomes the nephews' cool but dorky, Uncle Steve. Steve also basically becomes a “trophy husband” as he likes to joke and has full on retired but will still be an ornery, stubborn, bastard that tries to unionize everything and protest against injustice.

Eh, fuck it. I finished this over a month or two ago but I never got around to posting it because I didn’t think anyone would care. But basically, i said screw up and decided to post it anyways. Either way, listen I am allowed one overly, indulgent cringe post and this is it…

Say hello to my marvel/mcu OC Renzo Barnes ✌️✨ They’re basically an extremely overly indulgent AU of my old original eldritch character Lorenzo Vazquez shoved into my cringe re-write of the MCU universe where after Infinity War they get adopted by Bucky and Natasha who get later get married and also later adopt RJ and Kobik.

Because honestly a family can be an ex-amnesiac assassin of a grumpy LOTR fan, an ex-spy who’s this close to filing for divorce if “Bucky” eats her blinis again, an eldritch non-binary murder child who acts like a manic Freckle from the Gay and Wondrous Life of Caleb Gallo, another murder child who almost became the new Winter Soldier against his will and is the empitone of a middle child (and who is the true culprit of the disappearing blinis), and a literal cosmic baby that tends to use her phenomenal cosmic powers to make try to make Neopets exist and always get pancakes at breakfast.

I think I rambled long enough but I think I’ll do a master post/full bio for this wild bitch soon.

Ryuji Suguro x Reader

Word count: 1,200

Warnings: mild cursing, mild angst, fluffy goodness, soft Bon

Playlist: Champion by Barns Courtney, Bridges by Aisha Badru

A/N: Reader is an exwire studying to become a knight. Fights with a spear infused with a germanic fire spirit called an Aufhocker. It appears as a type of wolf with hooves and horns of a mountain goat. It is a fire elemental under the King of Fire Iblis. For 🔥nonnie!

I was excited to write this! Mephisto is my favorite but Bon is a close second!

For the sake of this fic I'm keeping it before the recent developments in the manga.

Anyway, I’ll stop rambling. It’s under the cut!

Crack, the shot rings out through the air, slicing through the small sized demon you were just about to land a strike on. It hisses and dissolves into ash. 

“Bon! What the hell!” you yell exasperated. “We are supposed to be partners in this!”

Suguro's chant continues without pause as he lowers the smoking rifle he holds. He shrugs at the seething glare you send him. 

Shaking your head, you lower yourself back into stance as another wave of lesser practice demons rush towards the two of you. With the grace and flexibility of a dancer you bunch your muscles and launch into the air to attract their attention away from Suguro. 

For a moment you let yourself revel in the weightless freedom before rushing back to the ground. Your spear whistles with precision at a cluster of the demons. 

Another series of cracks rip through the air and the cluster disintegrates before you. Rounding on Suguro you jab a finger at him, "Will you knock it off!" Gesturing at yourself you bite out, "What is the point of this if you're going to continue taking my hits for me?" 

Suguro's chanting halts for a moment causing the barrier around you to falter. He shakes himself out of some type of daze and motions for you to continue. 

"Tch, whatever just don't let it happen again," you say. Turning your attention back on the advancing hoard, a wicked grin splits your face. "Come forth Aufhocker, hear my call and submit." (A/n: is this cringey? Cause it feels cringey to me, anywho..). Orange flames erupt from the tip of the spear with a large chunk of flame breaking off and falling to the ground in front of your feet. 

A towering wolf type creature encased in darkness rises from the flame. It towers over you, it's curled horns glinting in the low light and hooved legs paw at the ground. 

"Welcome back buddy, let's have some fun hm?" you hum affectionately at the beast and pat its' snout, it feels slick but cool to the touch. A hot puff of its breath tickles your face causing you to giggle. 

A cacophony of gunshots ring through the air along with the heavy bursts of flames from your weapon and the beast. The demons are quickly taken down but again, and again, and again Suguro cuts you off. Taking nearly every hit you were about to take. 

The beast reacts to your emotions and turns on Suguro snarling. Fire crawls and drips from its maw. 

"Withdraw," you command and stab the blunt end of the spear into the dirt. The aufhocker retreats in to your staff and you slowly turn with a glint in your eye to stare Suguro down. 

"Listen…" he starts but you cut him off. 

"No you listen Bon," you practically spit venom at him. "What gives you the right to keep doing this? Huh?! Do you think I can't handle myself?!" 

Yukio is drawn by the commotion, "What's going on here (y/n), Suguro?" 

You throw your arms up in the air exasperated, "Hell if I know! Suguro keeps cutting off my attacks before I can land any!" 

"Teamwork is a paramount factor in risky situations or any situation for that matter. Trusting in your teammates can make or break a fight," Yukio levels his intense gaze on Suguro. "Is there a problem?" 

Suguro's mouth opens and closes like a fish several times before settling on his signature deep scowl. "I don't know," he admits quietly. 

Yukio heaves an exhausted sigh, "Tomorrow (y/n) will partner with Rin instead. In the meantime Suguro and (y/n) , reflect on trusting your teammates. You're both dismissed for the day." 

You tsk at Suguro and storm off back towards the dorms. His heavy footsteps alert you of him trailing behind you. 

The farther from the training grounds you leave behind the more you cool down. Why on Assiah was Suguro acting like this, he never treated the other classmates like this. 

Your footsteps slowed and stopped altogether. Did he not believe you could handle yourself? That was honestly as disheartening as it was a stab straight to your dignity. 

"Oof!" you grunt as Suguro walks straight into your back. 

"Sorry," his usually gruff voice sounding defeated. 

"You know what! You should be sorry!" you spin and shove at his chest. His big body doesn't move an inch however. "You never treat the others like they're incompetent!" 

"I-I know," he admits softly. 

"Then what's wrong?" your voice cracks. 

You shove at his chest again but his hands come up and capture the backs of your arms, stilling you. His head falls forward to gently rest against the top of yours.  

So close, all at once the crush you had so desperately shoved down reared its head. Focus on your dream, focus on becoming a meister, who has time for romance anyway? Surely not Suguro. 

“Bon?” you whisper.

He mutters something under his breath, low enough that you can't catch it. You ask again, “Bon? I can’t hear what you said.”

“You’re right. I have been treating you differently,” the warmth of his breath tickles your face. “At first, I had no idea why. You were just a fellow classmate. How were you any different than Izumo or Moriyama?”

Your breath hitches, Just a fellow classmate huh? Well there’s your answer (Y/n). Trying to hold back rejected tears you try to pull away not wanting him to see the look on your face. How humiliating. 

“Wait,” he sounds almost desperate with his grip tightening around your arms. When you stay put he continues, “You’re reckless and jump into fights with that damned grin on your face. Absolutely no regard for your own safety but quick to protect others. It frustrates the hell out of me.”

“What are you getting at?” you urge, growing impatient. Is he insulting or complimenting you? 

“It took me awhile to figure it out, but I think I-,” he pauses. “No, I know I like you.”

What? Are you hearing things? Countless nights imagining just those three simple words, I like you, coming out of his mouth. To the point they blended together and dulled the ache. 

At your stunned silence he exhales and laughs bitterly, “Yeah I figured as much, but I needed to get this off my chest. I’ll see you in class tomorrow (Y/n).” He released your arms and moved to step around you, continuing his trek to the dorms. 

Now it’s your turn to say: “Wait!” The harsh sound of your long forgotten weapon clatters to the ground as you spin and rush after him. 

Throwing your inhibitions to the wind you yank on his shirt lapels and smash your mouths together. He makes a cute squeak noise before letting out a content sigh and melting against you. One of his palms reaches up to caress your cheek. 

Renzo’s wolf whistle startles the both of you apart. “It’s about damn time!” he yells.

Suguro rubs a hand over his flushed face and flips Renzo off. 

 You giggle and his gaze snaps back to your face before softening. “Come on, I’ll walk you back.”

Bending to pick your spear back up you stand and give him a wink, “Yes, we need to continue that discussion.” You enjoy his flustered expression maybe a little to much.

Doctor Who’s Mark Gatiss and Derek Jacobi will face off in a two Masters story for Big Finish

The saga of Doctor Who’s War Master (Derek Jacobi) is about to conclude with a spectacular confrontation.

Big Finish, producers of Doctor Who audio plays since 1999, have been chronicling the further adventures of Jacobi’s Master following his TV appearance in 2007 episode ‘Utopia’.

In December, The War Master: Anti-Genesis will bring the range to a close, following 2017’s Only The Good, last year’s The Master of Callous and July’s Rage of the Time Lords.

In this final boxset, the Master unleashes his most audacious plot yet – as leader of the Daleks… and it’ll take a Master from another universe to stop him…

Mark Gatiss has been playing an alternative universe version of The Master for Big Finish since 2003 release Doctor Who – Unbound: Sympathy for the Devil, with Anti-Genesis seeing his incarnation cross paths with Jacobi’s.

Big Finish

Explaining the complex crossover, writer and co-script editor Nicholas Briggs said: “When producer/director Scott Handcock and I came up with the idea of there being an ‘alternative universe’ Master in the fourth War Master box set, we were very excited.

“We had it in mind that if Mark Gatiss really wasn’t available that we could, in theory and desperation, invent another ‘alternative universe’ Master — but we were really hoping for Mark. And the fact that Mark could make the recording dates makes me very happy indeed. The whole relationship between Derek Jacobi’s War Master and Mark’s Master is an intriguing one that gives many opportunities for stand-out performances from these great actors.”

The cast of The War Master: Anti-Genesis

Big Finish

The War Master: Anti-Genesis will be comprised of four stories – ‘From the Flames’ by Nicholas Briggs, ‘The Master’s Dalek Plan’ by Alan Barnes, ‘Shockwave’ by Alan Barnes and ‘He Who Wins’ by Nicholas Briggs.

Briggs will also voice the Daleks in the release, which will additionally see the return of recurring Big Finish character Narvin, played by Seán Carlsen, and will feature actor Jordan Renzo – who played Matteusz in the Doctor Who spin-off Class – playing a new character, Insloy.

The War Master: Anti-Genesis

Latest Review: Written By: Nicholas Briggs & Alan Barnes Directed By: Scott Handcock Starring Derek Jacobi,  Mark Gatiss, Seán Carlsen, Nicholas Briggs, Zaraah Abrahams, Pippa Bennett-Warner, Vikash Bhai, Daniel Brocklebank, Richard Clifford, Ben Crystal, Christopher Harper, Will Kirk, Jordan Renzo, Gavin Swift, Franchi Webb Released by Big Finish - December 2019 I flat out love Big Finish's War Master series.  It has got to be their most intriguing series of Who spin-off material they currently offer.  Seriously...look at the bulk of their line-up of spin-off stuff. Most of it is friends of the Doctor adventuring and investigating aliens on their own.  The War Master...it is this deep dive into the truly dark nature of the Time War.  Derek Jacobi is so damn good in the role, as he constantly schemes to take advantage of the Time War for his own gain.  Constantly finding some evil plan to wreak havoc in his own way, and use the Time Lords and hte Doctor's preoccupation with the War to have a little fun of his own.   In the latest set, he gets the hold of something called the Anti-Genesis codes, and as such he is able to break an unwritten rule of the Time War...neither side is meant to go back and keep the other side from ever existing.  That is how the war started essentially (as the seeds of the Time War were essentially planted with the Fourth Doctor story "Genesis of the Daleks" in which the Doctor is sent by the Time Lords to keep the Daleks from ever being created, and fails to do so).   But the Master has his own plans.  He gets the codes, uses it to go back to the moment of Davros' accident in which he was horribly disfigured, and gets Davros to not be in the safety of his lab where he was merely disfigured, but is instead killed by a dropping bomb.  Then the Master himself takes his spot in history...he still creates the Daleks but in his own vein.   It begins to unravel the universe slowly...at first in small ways, but eventually, it unmakes Gallifrey to a point where the Time Lords don't exist. Original Davros created Daleks team up with an Alternate version of the Master played by Mark Gatiss (reprising a role he played in Big Finish's Unbound series from yesteryear) in order to undo the War Master's plan...as it is essentially unmaking reality.  What I love about this series is that the Master doesn't have the counterpoint of the Doctor to stop his evil plans.  He just does downright awful stuff; ruins lives, kills, destroys, emotionally scars people just for a laugh...and he often wins in the end. But in this one, the Master goes to gloat, he finds just a few weak Gallifreyans who know nothing of him, the Time Lords and barely even of the Daleks. And since he had the Doctor killed years earlier...he has no one to laud his accomplishment over...and then even his Daleks turn on him, just as they had with Davros in the original timeline.   And so, the War Master must use the slice of his original reality (the Dalek Time Strategist's ship) to undo the damage. His hollow victory isn't worth dying for...because if it is one thing the Master never wants to do, it is destroy himself.  So he goes back in time, stops his former self, and then is trapped with the Daleks who offer to return his TARDIS to him as long as he helps them and gives them the secrets of the TARDIS...a set up for the next set I am sure.   Anti-Genesis the best War Master boxset yet.  Its story flows naturally and builds brilliantly (it flows so naturally from episode to episode I didn't even feel the need to do an episode by episode review this time around).  I'll admit the third episode got a tad confusing with all the alternate timelines and jumping about...but overall the story was great and I must recommend it for any fans of the Master.  http://reviews.doctorwhonews.net/2020/01/the_war_master_anti_genesis.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=tumblr
