The [great-grand] Children of Time
When first we met the Doctor, he was accompanied by his granddaughter, Susan. Susan was eventually left behind on 22nd Century Earth. We don’t actually know if Susan was a Time Lady or human. She may have been a young Time Lady who had used a Chameleon Arch to become human for some reason.
Susan offers a wealth of possibilities. Perhaps time has passed since we last saw her and she’s decided to leave her life on post-Dalek Occupied Earth behind. She cobbles together a time machine of some sort. Perhaps she’s been growing a TARDIS. There is lots of Dalek technology left on Earth for her to use. Maybe she makes something like a DARDIS or a time corridor. The nature of the time and space machine depends on how the GM wants it used. Now, she’s off to have her own adventures in time and space. Like her grandfather, she’ll attract companions. The players are her companions. One could even play Susan if so desired.
Alternately, remember that Susan had fallen for a young man when last we saw her. Perhaps they have married and had children. Now, she has decided to take her children [or even grandchildren] out into the universe and show them their birthright. The players can play her children or grandchildren. One can even play Susan. This creates a group with an interesting dynamic that can provide a lot of role-playing opportunities.

On a side note, the Big Finish audio - An Earthly Child deals with this. She marries and has a child called Alex - who only has one heart.

Of course just because Big Finish said it doesn't mean it has to be canon for your game.
