They are half human on their mother's side right?

Here's my incomplete list of candidates:

Leela of the Sevateem

Penelope Gate

The Loom of The House of Lungbarrow

Magda the Eastern European mermaid

the woman from The End of Time that RTD intended to be the Doctor's mother

the woman in the barn on Gallifrey from The Moffat era

Tecteun

the timeless child's bio parents (Bel and Vinder?)

Merlin's mother the nun Adhan (my speculation)

the mother(s) of the several great old ones that are/became the Doctor (the Other/ the Red Guardian/ Nyarlathotep)

Annalisse the human peasant girl (Leekley bible)

Anne Joyce (step mom) Ulysses's second wife

Bonus! The Doctor's mothers from false memory scenarios:

Verity Smith (Human Nature)

Ruth's parents that lived in a lighthouse.

A tall woman slowly made her way across the grey plain. A grey shawl covered her head in the ancient manner. On her arm she carried a jar, a two-handled amphora decorated with figures frozen for eternity in a scampering dance. She reached the long black crack that split the plain across. Gently she inclined the jar. From its lip fell a trickle of dust.

As the endless, timeless flute melody played, she stood pouring the glinting dust into the bottomless crevasse. Just as the Mother Goddess of the Old Time legends had poured Time itself into the void of the empty Universe.

The same tune stirring different memories. The dust of Time glittering like falling mirrors, trickling like sand in an hourglass. To stop it you might more easily stand a Pythia on her head.

Uh...

Doctor Who Moodboard: Penelope Gate

A human from the Victorian Era who invented a time machine and married the Time Lord, Ulysses. She is the mother of the Doctor. 

Wilfred: of what?

Tenth Doctor: if you were my dad.

Ulysses: ...

Innocet: ...

Braxiatel: hm...

The collection of fan-submitted fiction to accompany the LOCKDOWN! watch-along of Utopia / The Sound of Drums / Last of the Time Lords is here, and top billing goes to @aristidetwain‘s “The Tale of Three Little Toclafane”!

Do you remember—all those fairy tales about the Toclafane, when we were kids? Back home? Where is it, Doctor?

Gone. How can the Homeworld be gone? It burnt. And our families, our friends? Burned with them.

And the Enemy, more or less.

But all the legends of Gallifrey made it sound so perfect...
