A Mentor (read: lizard-slug-alien) and corrupt capitalist, Sil was a perfect compliment to the 1980s, and a good foil for the Sixth Doctor. His [[Doctor Who/Recap/S22 E2 Vengeance On Varos|first episode]] had Sil bilking an entire planet out of ''billions'' [[For the Evulz|because he could]], while his [[Doctor Who/Recap/S23 E2 Mindwarp|final appearance so far]] left Sil as an [[Bastard Understudy|understudy]] to a quickly-evolving member of his own species named Kiv... who then stole Peri's body for his own. Sil ''may'' be dead, but a script the Who crew was forced to discard during the 18-month hiatus of Doctor Who would have had Sil teaming up with the Ice Warriors[[hottip:*:<ref>Said script was novelized and will soon be turned into an [[Big Finish|audio drama]]</ref> too, while a script pitched for the never-produced Season 27 would have had Sil showing up with the Autons and UNIT. Until he shows up again in an actual, televised episode, however, we ''still'' don't know if he survived.
 
* [[Author Appeal]]: Sil is a pretty good character concept for the money-oriented 1980s, which was the intent of his creator.
