Description
The first installment of my Doctor Who symbols series, where I make and remake symbols from the Doctor Who Universe. I'll be honest that I'll be focusing on Gallifreyan symbols due to my Time Lord nature, but I'm also going to try and make symbols that are blurred or otherwise incomplete for the enjoyment of hardcore Doctor Who fans.Anyways, my first try at it was making the famous High Gallifreyan scripture symbolizing "Time Lord". Although it is never clearly stated whether this is the general symbol for time lord, or the symbol exclusive to The Doctor (as it seems each Time Lord has their own, see The Master; his ring bears a symbol that either symbolizes his name, or his alias), but on some occasians it is seen in the Doctor's TARDIS, suggesting that it is a symbol used frequently throughout Gallifrey, and therefore, is believed to symbolize Time Lord.

The lines and circles are actually used for sentences. www.timey-wimey.com/blog/wp-co… this is a good example. I think it would be fun if you tried to translate what you wrote. I have alittle practice with writing names atleast.

When was this seen inside the Tardis? I thought it was only shown on the collars and Rassilon?

I feel the unoriginal desire to have this tattooed on me since it represents me and my people.

Ok this is completely fantastic, best one on the internet, sooo much clearer than any other copy. Would it be alright if I used it for the product information for my Gallifrey scene (image: [link] ) on IMVU? I won't be making any money off of it, and I will credit you on the page if you want. It was obviously a lot of work so I'd feel bad just assuming it was ok. Anyway thanks for making this either way!- P

You probably already know this, and my apologies if you do, but from what I understand, this might be the general Time Lord symbol (or one exclusive to the Doctor as you said, I never thought about that), but I do know that the symbol the Master wears on his ring is the Seal of Rassilon, which I've read is meant for anyone who follows Rassilon or is in a position of Time Lord authority.
Hope that helps.

Um... no... the Master's ring isnt the Seal... it's a different symbol...
