14. The Matrix was a supercomputer, a micro-universe used by the High
Council of the Time Lords as a storehouse of knowledge to predict future
events.
The Matrix, specifically, contained a simulated reality environment, once
described as a "micro-universe" (TV: The Ultimate Foe) which stored the
personalities of Time Lords now without physical bodies and even the past
incarnations of living Time Lords. (COMIC: The Forgotten) Living beings
could also access the Matrix. The terms Matrix and APC Net, however,
have sometimes been used interchangeably.
The Amplified Panatropic Computer Net (or Amplified Panatropic
Computations) was section within the domain of the Matrix on Gallifrey.
(TV: The Invasion of Time)

18. The Matrix stored the memories of dead Time Lords in a framework of
electrochemical cells. (TV: The Deadly Assassin) It also received data from
sensors in TARDISes. (PROSE: The Quantum Archangel) It was not only a
record of the past, but could predict the future as well.
The amount of knowledge in the Matrix, though vast, was not complete,
and could be tampered with, given access. The unauthorised extraction of
a Time Lord's bio-data from the Matrix was an offence tantamount to
treason. (TV: Arc of Infinity) A particularly skilled person such as the
Valeyard could create images of events that never had happened nor ever
would. (TV: Mindwarp, Terror of the Vervoids, The Ultimate Foe)
Whenever anyone used the Matrix to acquire a specific piece of
information, a safeguard would cause anything else the user accidentally
stumbled across to be wiped from their minds. (PROSE: Timewyrm:
Genesys)
Matrix a APC

19. The APC, like the rest of the Matrix, was composed of trillions of
electrochemical cells in a continuous matrix. When a Time Lord dies, a
brain scan is made at the moment of death and the impulses are
transferred to the Matrix.
The Net's fuction was to monitor life in the Capitol and use the combined
knowledge and experiences to predict future developments. (TV: The
Deadly Assassin) Every Time Lord living and dead, from Rassilon to the
lowest orderlies, had the brain scan entered into the Net, and it was
illegal to remove their scan from it. The Garvond fed on these minds.
(PROSE: The Dimension Riders)
Returned to Gallifrey by Councillor Goth, the Master used the Matrix,
secretly infiltrating it and using Goth as his agent within it. Goth
confronted the Fourth Doctor there and attempted to kill him. (TV: The
Deadly Assassin)
Matrix byl přísně střežen

24. If two or more incarnations of the same Time Lord accessed the Matrix
simultaneously, they all gained equal access to all other incarnations'
memories. Because of this, a young, pre-Key to Time version of Romana I
instantly understood her future when Lady President Romana II joined her
in the Matrix. (AUDIO: Lies)
To living beings, the Matrix could appear like conventional reality, (TV:
The Deadly Assassin, The Ultimate Foe) a surreal dream, (COMIC: The
Tides of Time) a dark void (TV: Arc of Infinity) or first one, then another.
Physical laws were malleable to the will of the inhabitant.
Experience and sheer will gave one control over "reality". For example,
the Fourth Doctor shouted, "I reject it," and his wounded leg instantly
healed; this was undone by a more skilled Time Lord. (TV: The Deadly
Assassin)

25. Beings known as the Matrix Lords, including Rassilon himself, "lived" there
and could direct actions in the universe. They created a physical agent,
Shayde, to act for them in the outside world. (COMIC: The Tides of Time)
Access to the Matrix was through an apparatus connected to the head of
the user. (TV: The Deadly Assassin) The Crown of Rassilon worn by any
Time Lord gave them instant access. (TV: The Invasion of Time) The
Keeper of the Matrix held the Key of Rassilon, granting access to the
Seventh Door, thought legendary until the Doctor used the Key to access
it. The Seventh Door allowed physical access to the Matrix. (TV: The
Ultimate Foe)
Many facts, figures, and formulas were contained within the Matrix,
including: how to build the Demat Gun the threat posed by the Timewyrm
quantum mnemonics from the Pre-Universe faster-than-light travel anti-
gravity power dimensional transference history from the Humanian Era,
Sensorian Era, Sumaran Era, and Rassilon Era

27. According to one account, an ancient Gallifreyan evil named Pandora also
survived and emerged from a special partition within the Matrix. Lady
President Romana was eventually able to destroy the entity by destroying the
Matrix itself. (AUDIO: Lies) Sentient Matrix The Sentient Matrix opposes the
Eleventh Doctor. (COMIC: Sky Jacks) Another account said that Gallifrey was
destroyed by the Eighth Doctor to prevent the voodoo cult Faction Paradox
from starting a time war between the Time Lords and the Enemy. (PROSE:
The Ancestor Cell) It was later revealed that the Time Lords had survived
within the Matrix, which had then been downloaded into the Doctor's mind,
although he had to sacrifice much of his memory to make space for it. Their
reconstruction was possible, but would require a sufficiently advanced
computer. (PROSE: The Gallifrey Chronicles) Another account showed that in
the final moment of the Last Great Time War, the deaths of every Time Lord
being uploaded to the Matrix allowed it to gain sentience. The Matrix survived
the end of the Time War by uploading a copy of itself into the Doctor's
TARDIS. (COMIC: Sky Jacks)

28. Another account showed that in the final moment of the Last Great
Time War, the deaths of every Time Lord being uploaded to the Matrix
allowed it to gain sentience. The Matrix survived the end of the Time
War by uploading a copy of itself into the Doctor's TARDIS. (COMIC:
Sky Jacks)

29. On behalf of the corrupt High Council, seeking to cover up the Ravolox
affair that the Sixth Doctor had accidentally uncovered, the Valeyard
acted as the prosecutor in the Doctor's trial in exchange for his seven
remaining regenerations. (TV: The Ultimate Foe) Keeping his end of the
bargain, the Valeyard presented extracts from the Matrix depicting recent
past events in the Doctor's life as evidence of the Doctor violating the
Time Lords' non-interference policy. (TV: The Mysterious Planet, TV:
Mindwarp)
Unbeknownst to the Time Lord jury present at the trial, the Valeyard had
tampered with the Matrix extracts to show the Doctor in the worst
possible light and steer the trial to a guilty verdict. He created the
impression the Doctor had betrayed his companion, Peri Brown, to save
himself. (TV: Mindwarp) He also added the charge of Genocide of the
Vervoids despite their artificial nature, and the fact this was from the
Doctor's future. (TV: Terror of the Vervoids)
Valeyard a Matrix (1986)

34. the Master eventually stepped in after taking delight in seeing the Doctor's
plight, and revealed the Valeyard's motives. The Valeyard escaped into
the Matrix via the Seventh Door, which he opened with a copy of the Key
of Rassilon. He was pursued and finally defeated by the Sixth Doctor when
he tried to use a particle disseminator to destroy the court at the Doctor's
trial.
The Doctor programmed the disseminator to feed back into the Matrix and
escaped before the resulting blast apparently destroyed the Valeyard. The
Inquisitor dismissed the trial. However, as the Sixth Doctor and his
companion Melanie Bush departed, the Valeyard was secretly still present
– having somehow escaped under the guise of the Keeper of the Matrix.

36. As Lord President, the Doctor used the Matrix to gain access to the secrets
needed to defeat the Sontaran invasion of Gallifrey, specifically the De-mat
Gun. (TV: The Invasion of Time) While connected to the Matrix, he learned
of the existence of the Timewyrm (PROSE: Timewyrm: Genesys) and Quantum
mnemonics. (PROSE: Millennial Rites) After his supposed execution to stop
Rassilon's exiled contemporary Omega from returning to the universe of
matter, the Fifth Doctor hung suspended in the Matrix. Omega also had
access to the Matrix. (TV: Arc of Infinity) One of the many versions of Clara
Oswald created after she entered the Doctor's time stream appeared in the
Matrix saw the Fifth Doctor when he was sent there. (TV: The Name of the
Doctor) The Valeyard established a stronghold, the "Fantasy Factory", in the
Matrix as part of his plan to steal the Sixth Doctor's remaining regenerations.
During his attempt to stop him, the Doctor, as well as the Master, entered
into the "dreamscape" therein, the latter taking his TARDIS (or an illusory
version of it) there. The Valeyard somehow took over the Keeper of the
Matrix. (TV: The Ultimate Foe) The Seventh Doctor confronted the Dark
Matrix, which was trapped inside a TARDIS as it imploded. (PROSE: Matrix)
