A bit of both, if memory serves. It was mostly there to direct the Doctor and
his companions when it was needed, and once it moved the TARDIS to help the
Doctor. It never did speak, simply point a lot. Looked kinda like a glowing
mummy.

did it have a separate intelligence from that of the dying Doctor?
Sorry, I'll do some Web search to catch up, but I'm enjoying getting this info

Back in '81, when Tom Baker's Doctor regenerated in "Logopolis", there was a
ghostly figure lurking nearby through part of the ep. The Doctor seemed to know
who it was, and was duly unnerved at its presence. At the end, after the Doctor
was injured saving the Universe, the figure appeared, reaching out to him as he
lay "dying", muttering, "The moment has been provided for." Turns out that the
figure was the Doctor's next incarnation, there to facilitate the regeneration.
