a. I think Kamelion was a character that had a lot of potential and could have been used in interesting ways in a number of different stories. b. The fact that he/she/it never lived up to that potential, and instead spent most of its time aboard the TARDIS, well, out of sight somewhere... c. I think we know my thoughts on that particular issue...don't make me say them out loud... Okay, the Doctor, for a variety of reasons. d. Well, while Kamelion was pretending to be King John, he could get involved in the whole Robin Hood story (your version of choice - just not the rubbish recent BBC version), and end up having some kind of thing with Marian. Or possibly Robin. I'd have to work on the details... e. The rebooted version of Battlestar Galactica; Kamelion could be the Cylons' ultimate weapon... f. Jack Harkness; he'd just get Kamelion to pretend to be him forever. Best not to think about what happens next. ;D g. The Great Pretender. h. Kamelion actually wrote several dozen different autobiographies, all under different names and with completely different details. The poor machine had to do something during all those long, lonely hours aboard the TARDIS while everybody else was out adventuring. i. I don't know, something involving mirrors, probably. Yes, wandering for hours on end in a hall of mirrors, and not being able to see his/her/its reflection in any of them... j. Well, we know what happened there, don't we? And the worst part was that the Master survived anyway (somehow?!).
