Its coordinates from galactic centre were -10 0 -11 00 by 0 -2, nearly identical to those of Gallifrey. However, it was situated not in the universe containing Gallifrey, but a smaller universe known as E-Space. A starliner from the planet Terradon crash-landed an unspecified number of years before Adric's time. Connected to this was the ability to heal injuries at an accelerated rate (although this was less spectacular than the similar Time Lord ability to regenerate). The rate of healing slowed as the individual aged.

  • Alzarius is a swamp planet located in the pocket universe known as E-Space. Its coordinates are given as -10 0 -11 00 by 0 -2; negative due to being located in E-Space rather than regular N-Space. Coincidently, it possesses the same coordinates in E-Space as Gallifrey does in N-Space. The planet is most notable for its unique biosphere, in which native species naturally undergo periods of rapid evolution and are able to mutate into different species in response to environmental conditions.

  • Alzarius is a swamp planet located in the pocket universe known as E-Space. Its coordinates are given as -10 0 -11 00 by 0 -2; negative due to being located in E-Space rather than regular N-Space. Coincidently, it possesses the same coordinates in E-Space as Gallifrey does in N-Space. The planet is most notable for its unique biosphere, in which native species naturally undergo periods of rapid evolution and are able to mutate into different species in response to environmental conditions. The Alzarian life cycle seems to flow in a continuous evolution. During the epoch known as Mistfall (which happens roughly every fifty years) the riverfruits that fall from the trees hatch into newborn Alzarian Spiders. Those may give rise to Marshmen; which in turn may give rise to Alzarians. However, each of these species also reproduces on their own and generates more of their own kind, thus guaranteeing the continuing co-existence of all evolutionary stages. This amazing evolutionary cycle seems to be tied in to the ability displayed by Alzarian life forms to rapidly mutate in response to their environment; for instance, developing the ability to breathe the new gases released during the Mistfall. The life forms native to Alzarius also display strong regenerative abilities, being able to heal injuries quickly. Ironically, the Alzarians (at the least the one civilization that has been observed) are completely unaware of their origins, believing themselves to be descendants from the survivors of a crashed Terradonian spaceship.
  • Its coordinates from galactic centre were -10 0 -11 00 by 0 -2, nearly identical to those of Gallifrey. However, it was situated not in the universe containing Gallifrey, but a smaller universe known as E-Space. A starliner from the planet Terradon crash-landed an unspecified number of years before Adric's time. Alzarius was most notable for its lifeforms' highly unusual biology. This manifested itself most obviously in the extremely rapid adaptive changes made by Alzarian animal life. If placed in an environment it found stressful or even uncomfortable, an Alzarian creature would rapidly develop whatever characteristics it required to make the environment less stressful, such as the ability to breathe in a different medium, or higher muscular density. Connected to this was the ability to heal injuries at an accelerated rate (although this was less spectacular than the similar Time Lord ability to regenerate). The rate of healing slowed as the individual aged. Alzarian biology was also unusual in that the boundaries between animal and plant forms of life appeared less rigidly defined: the eggs of the Alzarian spider were discovered developing within riverfruit, apparently as a normal part of the spider's life cycle.
