I mean, the Rani was just an idea, since I know that people want her to return (I try to write what pleases the fanbase); I would also be able to reference how Steven Moffat filmed an alternate scene where Missy revealed herself to be the Rani instead of the Master, according to the TARDIS Wiki...In Series 11, (SPOILERS) Gallifrey returns, so I think it'd be interesting if other Time Lords/Ladies began returning, as well.

The companion does not necessarily have to be a secret or blatant antagonist; I just think, given her unusual youth in comparison to other companions, her personality should be something intriguing like her herself. She is something higher than a normal adolescent (many things about her are meant to suggest or hint at this) and should at least be a complex character people can get attached to (or love to hate if she's an antagonist). She is someone I could have a lot of fun with; maybe she could have a childlike demeanor, making her dangerous and unpredictable, but this hides an equally dangerous wit. Perhaps she toys with the Doctor or views him as his plaything; sometimes, she'd help him, while other times, she'd hinder him.

This companion should at least have the same level of prominence in the Doctor's life as Clara currently does, being the one who has helped the Doctor in each of his incarnations' lives...

As far as how many episodes I would like to write, my answer is this: the same as in an official season of Doctor Who. If I adhere to tradition, then that means a grand total of 13 per series.

In terms of what type of plot I'd like to have, I am with CLTwins15: something that has as much prominence as the Silence did during Matt Smith's run as the Eleventh Doctor. On the Thirteenth Doctor's adventures, the plot is hinted at and/or moved towards, while some episodes devote themselves to it. This would be true for both Series 11 and Series 12. And also in Series 1 and Series 2 of The Doctor, which has 26 episodes per series to compensate for its short overall lifespan in comparison to other spin-offs...

And yes, Turtlecake365, the Question is the First Question the Doctor has been running from all his life: his true name.
