Lord Griffen was an early Gallifreyan leader. During the time of Rassilon and Omega, Griffen was known as one of the "Elders of Gallifrey". He and Lady Jolodex, were present on the Gallifreyan flagship Aeon when Rassilon and Omega detonated the star Qqaba, enabling the Gallifreyans to become Lords of Time. (DWM: Star Death)

Twenty years later, Griffen was married to Lady Jolodex. At that time, the two sent their daughter Rema-Du and Wardog of the Special Executive to retrieve the assassin Fenris from the Vortex. After Fenris was retrieved, Griffen summoned an assembly of the Prydonian Chapter to learn who sent him. Shortly after Viridian the Brainfeeler, another member of the Special Executive, searched Fenris's mind to learn that he had been sent by the Order of the Black Sun, members of the Order itself attacked the meeting. Griffen was the first to understand that the Gallifreyans were facing a time war. (DWM: 4-D War)

Ten years after the first Black Sun attack, Griffen communicated with Rema-Du, who had become a Gallifreyan ambassador, when she attended a diplomatic conference on the planet Desrault. (DWM: Black Sun Rising)
