Gleda Ley-Sooth Marka Jinglatheen was the Senior Envoy of Raxacoricofallapatorius and member of the Raxacoricofallapatorian Jinglatheen family. Gleda met Slist Fayflut Marteveerthon Slitheen on Gharusa Prime, believing that Slist was the Ninth Doctor. Gleda was envoyed from Raxacoricofallapatorius because the Raxas Alliance was at brink of war.

Biography[]

Gleda was serving as Senior Envoy of Raxacoricofallapatorius by the year 3764. That year, the Jinglatheen ship landed on Gharusa Prime, where Gleda met with whom she believed to be the Ninth Doctor, who was recognised for his part in ridding the galaxy of "the Slitheen scourge" and ending the Last Great Time War. Appealing for the Doctor's assistance in brokering peace in the Raxas Alliance, Gleda offered the contents of the Raxasian vaults. Taking Rose Tyler with him, "the Doctor" accompanied Gleda to Clix as a keynote speaker addressing the delegates of the Raxas Alliance. Whilst there, Gleda endured racist abuse from a delegate from Raxacoricovarlonpatorius, explaining to Rose that her people were blamed for the Slitheen's crimes in the Alliance. During the address, Rose revealed that "the Doctor" was actually a female Slitheen. This was immediately confirmed by a body scan, after which Gleda destroyed her skin suit, exposing her true form.

In response to this deception, Gleda initated a Grand Raxian Hunt, the first in decades, with the quarry being the Slitheen and Rose, the "human accomplice". Alongside the Clixians and the Raxacoricovarlonpatorians, the Jinglatheen participated in this hunt, which was observed by Gleda at a Clixian facility alongside Ambassador Mipa of Raxacoricovarlonpatorius and a Clixian technician. For the purposes of "atmosphere" and "drama", Gleda had the technician "whip up a storm". However, the resulting rain's acid content had deadly effects on the participating Raxacoricofallapatorians. Before weather control could respond, an explosion occured, killing the technician. Coming to, Gleda branded this incident an attack on Raxacoricofallapatorians, turning the blame to Clix or Raxacoricovarlonpatorius.

Making contact with the orbital weather control, Gleda was answered by the real Doctor and his companions. As the Doctor had uncovered, Gleda had a Jinglatheen death-squad transmated to the station, where they slaughtered the Clixian operators in a plot to sacrifice thousands of Raxacoricofallapatorians so the Jinglatheen could play on the sympathy the atrocity would bring and regain control of the Alliance. Killing Ambassador Mipa, Gleda attempted to prevent the truth coming out by shutting down communications from the satellite. However, Slist Fayflut Marteveerthon Slitheen, the Slitheen imposter, exposed the Jinglatheen plot by hacking the Galacticnet. Gleda attempted to escape but was stopped by the Doctor and his company, who used the TARDIS to intercept her. Gleda was then taken into custody by the Raxacoricofallapatorians. (COMIC: Doctormania)
