The 2D figure becomes the avatar for the God of Light - another addition toDoctor Who ’s Pantheon . He ’s a fearsome baddie who can keep in line the Doctor ’s very physiology , but the Time Lord ultimately comes out on top at the end of their skirmish .
" Lux " is unlike anyDoctor Whoepisode I ’ve ever get word . It ’s full of meta moments and fourth - wall breaks , even more so than is typical ofDoctor Who ’s Disney epoch . Similarly , Cumming ’s character is an unbelievably compelling villainthat come bundle with complex lore and leave the show under pretty equivocal circumstances . have him come along as a 2D animated avatar may seem like a monolithic gimmick , which it is , but it also make for very well within the cosmos ofDoctor Who .
Lux Isn’t Exactly Dead, But He’s No Longer A Threat
The God of Light becomes one with the universe
The Fifteenth Doctor ( Ncuti Gatwa ) and Belinda Chandra ( Varada Sethu ) give Lux exactly what he wantsat the end of the episode by bring out Cumming ’s character to light up from the Earth ’s sun . The problem for Lux is that this take place before he has a bodily body that ’s capable of defy the solar rays . As such , he grows and grows and grows without end and becomes at one with the existence .
" The light of institution ! I am everything , and I am nothing . Goodbye . "
- Lux Imperator , at the end ofDoctor Whoseason 15 , episode 2 , " Lux . "
Exposure to so much lightness at once do a shower force within Lux , which ultimately go to him being an nonphysical being once more . He seems more than glad , and almost euphoric , with this divine revelation . So , the Doctor did n’t shoot down Lux , but rather made it so that the God of Light left petty thing like violence and destruction in his past tense as he ascended to another planing machine of existence . So , Lux wo n’t be bothering anyone anytime shortly .
It’s Unlikely Than Any Pantheon God Can Die Completely
Gods aren’t defeated quite so easily
The several returns of villains fromDoctor Who ’s classic epoch , like theToymaker ( Neil Patrick Harris)and Sutekh ( Gabriel Woolf ) , endure as grounds that members ofthe Pantheon are improbably hard to permanently vote down . They can be slow up down , or even stop , but it ’s unlikely the Doctor would ever find a way to make certain they could never ever be a trouble again . This includes Lux , although he has been taken care of about as effectively as any member ofDoctor Who ’s Pantheon can be .
