Doctors and Daleks​

A New Way to Adventure through all of Space and Time

Doctors and Daleks brings the epic adventures of the Universe’s most famous Time Lord to the world’s most popular roleplaying game. Running parallel to the award winning Doctor Who: The Roleplaying Game, Doctors and Daleks is a new line of products that brings Doctor Whoadventures to your table using 5th Edition rules.

The first book, the Doctors and Daleks Players Guide, brings you everything you need to get started with your adventures in Space and Time!

  • Streamlined character creation rules to quickly bring to life a new time travelling adventurer. Create a new Companion for the Doctor, or build your own Time Lord! Do you want to do a bit of time tourism as part of Team TARDIS, or will you create a group of Time Agents to fight back against pesky paradoxes?
  • Rules for playing fast paced, combat light sci-fi adventures using the world’s most popular roleplaying game system. Fight like the Doctor with non-lethal weapons, manoeuvres, gadgets, and the power of emotional and logical arguments — or just run away really fast!
  • A time traveller’s treasure trove of technological marvels, including sonic screwdrivers, psychic paper, a water gun, and time machines.
  • Rules for using and customising the TARDIS, as well as creating and piloting any other kind of time travel device you can think of from the dawn of history to the very ends of the universe.
  • Advice on making every Doctors and Daleks adventure feel like you’re living in an episode of the legendary Doctor Who TV Series.
  • An expansive look at the history of the Doctor’s Universe, detailing some of the aliens and creatures the Doctor has encountered across space and time, including profiles for Daleks, Cybermen, and Weeping Angels, ready to be played!
The Doctors and Daleks Player’s Guide will be followed by the Alien Archive, a dedicated catalogue of some of the Doctor’s most notorious foes, presenting dozens of recognisable aliens from the series for the players to add to their games.

Alongside these, The Keys of Scaravore is an epic adventure for levels 1-5, that leads the characters to the Wild West and distant worlds, encountering Draconians, Silurians, Zygons, and more, before finally facing the terrifying Scaravore itself.

That’s a very western view.

I hope you’re right and I hope the game actually feels lime Doctor Who. I don’t think it will give the game system it’s based on.
It is western, and I apologize for being reductive. It should be noted, however, that Dr. Who is a western show.

I mostly hope this new game makes C7 money, which I assume is the primary goal of publishing it. They're a good company that makes good games, but everybody's gotta pay the bills.

Leela and Ace would like a word.
So 2 out of 59 or so official companions.

Susan Foreman. Barbara Wright. Ian Chesterton. Vicki. Steven Taylor. Katarina. Sara Kingdom. Dodo Chaplet. Polly. Ben Jackson. Jamie McCrimmon. Victoria Waterfield. Zoe Heriot. Brigadier Lethbridge-Stewart. Liz Shaw. Jo Grant. Sarah Jane Smith. Sergeant John Benton. Captain Mike Yates. Harry Sullivan. Leela. K-9. Romana. Adric. Tegan Jovanka. Nyssa. Vislor Turlough. Kamelion. Peri Brown. Melanie Bush. Ace. Grace Holloway. Rose Tyler. Adam Mitchell. Jack Harkness. Mickey Smith. Donna Noble. Martha Jones. Astrid Peth. Jackson Lake. Rosita Farisi. Lady Christina de Souza. Adelaide Brooke. Wilfred Mott. Amy Pond. Rory Williams. River Song. Craig Owens. Clara Oswald. Madame Vastra. Jenny. Strax. Nardole. Bill Potts. Graham O'Brien. Ryan Sinclair. Grace Sinclair. Yasmin Khan. Dan Lewis.

They're in order of appearance. Can you spot Leela and Ace in all that? I italicized their names so you would have an easier time seeing them.

Leela appeared in nine stories.

Ace appeared in nine stories.

The most recent aired episode of Doctor Who puts the story count at 299.

So 18/299. So 0.06% of all Doctor Who stories.

I'm sure a few hundred pages of combat rules are perfectly justified.

Thanks for the handy list. I've bolded the others in there that definitely wouldn't have any problem with resorting to violence, there are others who'd be questionable. So basically, definitely not never.
