Lady Chancellor

The Lady Chancellor was a female Timelord, a member of the Inner Council and headmistress of the Timelord Academy. One of the most important figures in the government, the Lady Chancellor was often given responsibility for decisions which the Lord President himself did not feel like doing. She was widely unpopular outside the Inner Council, her harsh policies alienating younger council members and suspicions of using less-than-peaceful means to reach her position leading to some elders disliking her. She held the position of Lady Chancellor almost as long as the Lord President held his position.

A tall, thin woman, she was in favour of arresting the Deca on false charges, when the decision was delegated to her by the Lord President.
