Doctor Whooves: Introduction

Name: Unknown (Prefers “The Doctor”)
Species: Time Lord
Occupation: Time traveling hero

The Doctor is the last surviving member of his race, the Time Lords. Since he’s practically immortal, he travels through time in his ship, the TARDIS, (Time and Relative Dimension in Space) and saves many worlds from many monsters and such. While on a trip to Earth, the TARDIS brings the Doctor instead to Equestria. As per usual, he’s initially frustrated by his ship’s faulty navigation controls. But this time around, something in the air bugs the Doctor. Something isn’t quite right here in Equestria.
While in Ponyville to catch up with his old companion, Derpy Hooves, and some of her other friends, the Doctor hears news of the Equestria Battle Tournament. After a few minutes of pondering, the Doctor realizes that this might be what’s been bugging him ever since he got to to Equestria. Something bad is going to go down and it’s going to go down at this Equestria Battle Tournament thing. Generally, the Doctor is rather opposed to violence. However, since such a thing is unavoidable this time around, his limited experience with hand-to-hand combat in the past should serve him well.
However, he hasn't had as much training as far as hoof-to-hoof combat. After all, only recently has he stumbled upon this world, and he’s still getting used to the very idea of being an equine rather than a humanoid being. If the Doctor hopes to survive, he’s going to have to learn what he needs to know very fast. And even then, could it prepare him for an encounter with a couple of old rivals... or even a new, unfamiliar foe?
