  • Gantok wore sterotypical Viking-style attire, along with the Eye Drive worn by many servants of the Silence. He was an avid player of live chess. He was proud of his skill at the game, and when the Doctor had beaten him during a match, Gantok offered to pay anything to escape forfeiting or electrocution. He told the Doctor that Dorium Maldovar knew many things about his death, despite being met with disbelief; Dorium had been beheaded at the Battle of Demons Run by the Headless Monks. Gantok helped him get into the Seventh Transept, where he turned on the Doctor, angry at him for beating him at Live Chess. Despite the Doctor trying to warn him, Gantok was killed when he stepped on a booby trap that dropped him into a pit filled with the skulls from the Headless Monks, which proceeded to devour him. This was most likely Time's way of making sure the Doctor got to Lake Silencio to die at the unwilling hands of River Song. (TV: The Wedding of River Song)
