An all companions idea . . .

Re-posted from the "What kind of game are you going to run" thread:

The game starts with the NPC Timelord and the PC's running from a dangerous enemy, the PC's reaching the TARDIS just in the nick of time. The Timelord is captured but before they can pin his arms down he hits the TARDIS with the sonic screwdriver slamming the doors shut and activating emergency protocol "Six One Nine" which his hologram informs the PC's will, in the event of his capture or failure to regenerate cause the TARDIS to return them to their proper time and place. However the de-materializing TARDIS is hit by a blast from an alien weapon and it dumps them in a random location and time leaving the PC's who barely know how to operate it trying to locate the Timelord they had been traveling with so they can find their way home . . .

Suggestions on the enemy to use are appreciated.

Do the enemy know what a Time Lord is? what a TARDIS is? If they do, do they have the technology to track it? OK, so that's a few ifs...

And I'd pick a Classic-series enemy that can be given a New-Who makeover. Unfortunately, my brain has gone blank for a suitable one.

This sounds to me like a job for the Sontarans. Yes, they've already been reintroduced, but they have a BIG interest in acquiring advanced Time Travel technology, and could prove to be a terrific recurring foe for the players as they chase the TARDIS crew through time and space trying to capture it.

Classic Mondasian/Telossian cybermen (as opposed to the Pete's World variety) could also work, and if the Sontarrans are interested in time travel tech, it stands to reason the Rutans would be too.
