(My attempt to explain the In Universe origin for the Doctor Numbering that makes sense)

General interaction protocol: Unless a specific placement in the life of a particular incarnation is evident, protocol is to assume the incarnation only has the knowledge of their predecessors life, not any encounters they themselves may have had with UNIT, unless they make specific reference to prior encounters without prompting. Encounters referenced that do not correlate to the known set of UNIT encounters with the Doctor are to be catalogued in the ‘Future Encounters’ database, subject to internal review.

The Numbered Roster, Incarnations Who Work Alongside UNIT

The First Doctor

First Official Encounter: UNIT Year 6 (Subject to Dating Protocol), Omega Incident

Important Interaction Notes: This incarnation is described as the First based on the Omega Incident and Death Zone incident, wherein this life is the earliest one present in both locations. The direct predecessor of the incarnation who first encountered UNIT, interactions with this version of the Doctor should be kept to a minimum as per the temporal protocols.

The Second Doctor

First Official Encounter: UNIT Year -4 (Subject to Dating Protocol), London Incident

Important Interaction Notes: This incarnation is the first to interact with UNIT, doing so during UNIT Year 1, The First Cyberman Incursion. As such it is to be assumed that this incarnation is unaware of UNIT or its operations unless they make specific reference to it themselves. The exception to this is encounters with a grey haired, older looking iteration, which are to be catalogued separately and not to be mentioned to future incarnations either.

The Third Doctor

First Official Encounter: UNIT Year 1, First Auton Invasion

Important Interaction Notes: As this incarnation was stranded working for UNIT until the Omega Incident, it is reasonable the majority of the time to assume any further encounters with this incarnation involve a version who is already aware of these events.

The Fourth Doctor

First Official Encounter: UNIT Year 8, K1 Incident

Important Interaction Notes: As this incarnation was born within UNIT and travelled with Sarah Jane Smith for his early life, it is reasonable to assume they are familiar with the events of the K1 Incident, First Zygon Invasion and the Krynoid Incident.

The Fifth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 1980, Discovery of the TARDIS in Pompeii

Important Interaction Notes: None to report

The Sixth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 1983, Derbyshire

Important Interaction Notes: None to report

The Seventh Doctor

First Official Encounter: 1997, Camelot Incident

Important Interaction Notes: This incarnation has been heavily involved in UNITs past prior to his first official encounter, specifically in UNIT Year 8, The Vardan Incident, among others.

The Eighth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2003, Malebolgia Incident

Important Interaction Notes: There is a large period in which this incarnation lived on Earth (first reported in the late 19th Century until the early 21st), during this period they possessed amnesia and are to be treated as a named incarnation. (Specifically “The Amnesiac Doctor”)

The War Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2013, Operation Double

Important Interaction Notes: This incarnation, despite being chronologically between the Eighth and Ninth, was not catalogued until years later and is specially numbered as they are not to be mentioned to the subsequent three incarnations due to repressed trauma from an event known as the ‘Last Great Time War’.

The Ninth Doctor (Previously “Northern Doctor” before identification)

First Official Encounter: UNIT Year 8, Albion Defence Investigation

Important Interaction Notes: Avoid bringing up the events of the ‘Last Great Time War’.

The Tenth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2006, Sycorax Incident

Important Interaction Notes: Do not confuse this incarnation with the ‘Fourteenth Doctor’ (First encountered 2023, The Giggle). Take extra care determining the incarnation in question and categorise as appropriate in the ‘Post-Giggle 10/14 Re-Categorisation Database’.

The Eleventh Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2011, Goruda Investigation

Important Interaction Notes: Avoid mentioning events still present in the ‘Post-Giggle 10/14 Re-Categorisation Database’. Also avoid alluding to future incarnations outright as this one believes himself to be the final one.

The Twelfth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2014, Fracture Incident

Important Interaction Notes: Avoid mentioning events still present in the ‘Post-Giggle 10/14 Re-Categorisation Database’.

The Thirteenth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2021, Three Minute Eclipse

Important Interaction Notes: Avoid mentioning events still present in the ‘Post-Giggle 10/14 Re-Categorisation Database’. First official encounter was during the 2017-2021 UNIT Shutdown caused by the infiltration of the organisation by an alien agent. As a result, care is to be taken regarding future encounters with this incarnation to avoid revealing the nature of said shutdown.

The Fourteenth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2023, November 2023 UFO Incident

Important Interaction Notes: This incarnations entire life up to the events of ‘The Giggle’ is known and catalogued by testimony. Post-“Giggle Events” should be catalogued separately under the “Bigenerated Doctor” after being first placed into the ‘Post-Giggle 10/14 Re-Categorisation Database’.

The Fifteenth Doctor

First Official Encounter: 2023, The Giggle

Important Interaction Notes: Do not assume this incarnation is familiar with events that happen to the post-‘The Giggle’ Fourteenth Doctor until such a theory has been adequately tested.

Non-Numbered Incarnations of Unknown Placement

The “Bearded Doctor”

First Official Encounter: Prior to 1991 (Incident Report Lost)

Important Interaction Notes: Placement unknown, presumed to postdate the First through Eighth Doctors but that cannot be assumed.
