This is a feature I’m definitely going to improve soon (after some stats updates) because A) It’s really slow and B) it doesn’t feature every character.
I have a new idea which is the concept of a character you have “encountered”. So maybe you can view the tracker and it only shows characters you’ve actually met in at least one story you completed.
And of course the ability to individually “favourite” a character, and choose which ones to track on the homepage…
I currently live on the Romana page of it, I’m at 33% of Romana total, 42% of Romana I and 32% of Romana II.
I’d love a shortcut to a specific character on the homepage, because rn I have like 5 tabs open at all times for this because it does get a little tedious to get back on there. A search function would also be very helpful.
I’m also planning to 100% every character on the TV section soon, I’m just missing Class and a few second doctor reconstructions where I only watched the animations.
As for characters I actually have completed, that’s only Joy (since she only has the one story) and Gabby from the tenth doctor titan comics since I’ve read all of those by now
I had 100% for 13 for a while, but a couple things have been added that I haven’t had the time/money to get to yet so I’m only at 97% right now. Still have 100% for all four of her companions though, as well as Fugitive.
21% on Peri as well, which isn’t a lot but it’s solid progress (though don’t think I’m planning to get to 100% for her)
I’m 100% on Lucie Miller across all media a few years ago I was on Sarah Jane Completion Quest but this was pre TG and I haven’t read any comics so I’m on at 47% I’d love to complete Leela too but that’s soooooo many Tom Baker audios… But she has fewer stories than Sarah, so maybe one day.
The ‘tracking characters you’ve met’ thing sounds awesome though, would have been useful when I went on Veklin Quest last year (which TG was very useful for!)
Totally love the character tracker!! I’m very character-focussed in my media consumption and Doctor Who is no different. Being able to track (and have a list of) the available media for a specific character is what drew me to join here!
Very keen for a ‘favourite’ function, that would be awesome.
I have goals of meeting 100% for Clara and Ace, and Jenny (Doctor’s Daughter) too although she doesn’t appear to have a tracker of her own yet.
Yes, I use the Character Tracker a fair amount. The only Doctor I have 100% across everything is Fugitive, though that’s going to change this month when the Big Finish sets start releasing. Otherwise it’s:
I love this page and am looking forward to the upgrade. I want to be able to sort the characters. I like what you said that it only shows characters that you have met. Maybe shown the average Tardis Guide user has done.
