K is for... Karl (1)

 
Karl was a young Neo-Nazi who was employed by a man named De Flores. He was a war criminal living in South America, who intended to seize a powerful artefact that might help establish a Fourth Reich. This was the Nemesis statue, which was composed of a substance of Gallifreyan origin.
Karl hired a squad of mercenaries and they travelled to England in 1988 to await the arrival of the statue, which was in a space capsule on a decaying orbit, and due to crashland in the Windsor area from where it had first been launched by the Doctor back in 1638.
However, also seeking the statue were the Cybermen and the Lady Peinforte, who had originally fashioned the statue as a likeness of herself in the guise of Nemesis back in the 17th Century. The Doctor had to stop all three parties from seizing the statue.
The Cybermen wiped out De Flores' mercenaries, apart from Karl. He and De Flores attempted to make an alliance with the Cybermen but failed. Karl was killed by them.

Played by: Metin Yenal. Appearances: Silver Nemesis (1988).
