The Temporal Powers were an alliance of various time-active factions of the universe.
History[[edit] | [edit source]]
The Time Lords, under the leadership of Lady President Romana, decided that it was in the better interests of the universe if Gallifrey shared its time travel technology - and the responsibility for the Web of Time -with other time-active races. The Time Lords set a conference on the planet Archetryx to work out the agreements.
The Daleks collided the planet Etra Prime into Archetryx to disrupt the agreements and attempt a takeover of Gallifrey. Their efforts were ultimately unsuccessful, and it gave the factions the incentive to sign the agreements as the Temporal Powers. The Powers were left to rebuild following the devastating invasions of their respective homeworlds by the Daleks which had occurred during the incident, with Romana promising that Gallifrey would provide aid. (AUDIO: The Apocalypse Element)
A generation of students on Gallifrey began to break from the Great Curriculum and study with members of the Temporal Powers, helping to strengthen bonds between the Time Lords and their allies. Vansell hoped for even greater relations to ensure his people could become a radical force for good, instead of merely maintaining the Web of Time with all of its injustices. He even considered humanity as a possible ally the Time Lords could bring into the fold. (AUDIO: Neverland) Part of Romana's agreements allowed for off-world students to attend the Time Lord Academy on Gallifrey. This move was resisted by conservative elements on Gallifrey led by Inquisitor Darkel. (AUDIO: Insurgency, Imperatix)
During the Civil War on Gallifrey, Romana desperately tried to keep the students of the other powers safe, however after her defeat of the Imperiatrix Pandora, a number of the other Temporal Powers attempted to rescue their students and at the same time occupy Gallifrey. (AUDIO: Appropriation)
On the fringes of the Last Great Time War, the Temporal Powers had a local skirmish between several of their members. (PROSE: Ghost of Christmas Past) The extermination or near-extermination of such Temporal Powers as the Monans, the Sunari, the Nekkistani and the Phaidonians by the Daleks led to Gallifrey formalising the Time War. (AUDIO: Desperate Measures) The last battleships of the Temporal Powers were among the wreckage of the Time War on Karn which stood as late as the Eighth Doctor's regeneration into the War Doctor, including Monan and Phaidonian ships. (AUDIO: Light the Flame)
