THE EIGHTH DOCTOR !

ABOUT ME !
This here is the Eighth Doctor. Basically, I can play him anywhere on his timeline, from right after his meeting with Grace following his regeneration to the Time War and his presumed change to Nine. During the majority of his incarnation period, he's a charming, exuberant, and almost romantic sort of person. He loves travelling and seeing new things, and he can sometimes seem quite innocent and naive. However, later in his life, he can be quite dark and passionate, especially around the period of the Time War. Here's some things I'm looking for...
FRIENDS !
Well, the Doctor certainly needs a companion! Honestly, I'm most familiar with Grace (from the tv movie) and Charley. She's one of my favorite companions, really, in all of Doctor Who, so I'd totally love if someone took her. However, I wouldn't mind if someone wanted another of Eight's many companions, but I'd prefer any of them to be towards the beginning so we can sort of do our own thing (even with Charley). If I didn't have a canon companion, I wouldn't even mind a non-canon one or two travelling with him! Since I can play him at any technical part of his timeline, we can just choose a place to say he travelled with them. And of course, I can play with multiple people and say it's at a different time. So any combination of these is fine! Oh, and of course, the Doctor meets people that he works with temporarily, so any adventure friends are great too. I'm up for all sorts of plotting!
ENEMIES !
Everyone gets them at some point or another, I'm sure, and the Doctor seems rather good in any of his incarnations at picking up a few in the least. With his happy-go-lucky nature early on, I bet he would rub some people the wrong way. Not to mention, there are some 'villain' types around here anyway that are natural enemies of the Doctor, so there's that also.
LOVES !
I mentioned that he could be romantic, but I didn't one hundred percent mean in a love sort of way. Yes, he kissed Grace and Charley eventually falls for him, but the Doctor tends to be pretty guarded involving the whole romance thing, no matter the incarnation. If Eight ever got into a love sort of feeling with someone, I could probably pull something where he refuses to give into an actual relationship. I think he'd be afraid, at some level, to do something like that to someone.
ANYTHING ELSE !
Anything else is also appreciated. If there's anything I missed, I'm sure you can think it up! Acquaintances, reluctant allies, something of some other sort... Just shoot!
Oh, and honestly, I'd rather hold off a tad on the Time War typed plotting for a bit. I want to get a bit of playing with him as the regular Eight before pushing him over the edge. -wink-
