The Forge is a fictional black operations organisation from the Big Finish Productions radio drama based on the long-running United Kingdom science fiction on television series ''Doctor Who''. The canon (fiction) of the audio plays, like the other Doctor Who spin-offs media, is unclear. The Forge was founded at the turn of the 20th century to study and experiment with extraterrestrial life in popular culture material and technology and apply it to the security interests of the United Kingdom. It first appeared in ''Project Twilight'', written by Cavan Scott and Mark Wright (writer). The Forge's first known operation was Project: Twilight in 1913, which involved the infection of human subjects with the so-called Twilight Virus, which incorporated DNA from vampires to create human-vampire hybrids as super-soldiers. However, the test subjects escaped into the community. The Forge's chief scientist, Dr William Abberton was mortally wounded and forced to inject himself with the virus. He then assumed the code name of Nimrod (Doctor Who) and dedicated himself to tracking down the escaped vampires. Project: Dionysus was the next known operation, which took place during the early 1950s, when Dr Stone attempted to create a rift in spacetime, which was almost used by a race known as the Divergence to break through into our reality (''Zagreus (Doctor Who)''). Although there was no explicit mention of the Forge in ''Zagreus'', it was heavily implied that Stone was working for them. Eventually, in the late 1990s, Nimrod successfully killed the last of the Twilight vampires, tracking down Reggie Mead and Amelia Dooney to the South London casino they had established to hide their vampire activities. By the beginning of the 21st century, Nimrod was promoted to Deputy Director of the Forge and began Project Lazarus, which was an attempt to clone the Time Lord known as the The Doctor (Doctor Who). At the conclusion of the Lazarus affair, the Forge facility beneath Dartmoor was destroyed. However, records show that the organisation moved to a secondary facility, taking their remaining staff and a new version of their supercomputer, Oracle. The Forge will return in the original novel ''Project: Valhalla'' by Scott and Wright, to be published by Big Finish in July 2005. Other Forge personnel have included: * The Director - the shadowy head of the Forge. At the time of Project: Twilight the Director is a man but by Project: Lazarus a woman has been promoted to the position. * Sergeant Frith - the Forge's Security Chief * Doctor Crumpton - the Forge's Chief Science Officer * Lazarus - the Forge's scientific advisor * Artemis - Nimrod's replacement as main Forge field agent.

==Merging== This should be merged and redirected with Nimrod, I think. --User:Khaosworks 18:43, May 23, 2005 (UTC)
