For anyone who still hasn't "got" my Omega character, I direct you here.

Yes, I am not averse to stealing characters from books. But they are nearly always obscure, and usually substantially modified.

Wow. He's, like, just like you, man! It's like looking in a literary mirror! Apart from the girl on every planet and surfer-dude fanclub and warrior training (1). Y'know . . . I bet he appears in fan-fiction. But I am not brave enough to look.

Last I checked there was surprisingly little - partly because of the nature of the Doctor Who target audience, I suspect, but also because there's very little you could do with him that hadn't been done in the books already. The Virgin books were, in many ways, quite fanficcy. Meaning the young, attractive companions got into many naughty situations.
