Faction Paradox is a time-traveling voodoo cult. Founded by Grandfather Paradox, their base is located in the Eleven-Day Empire. They delight in creating temporal paradoxes and occasionally took part/take part in The War between the Time Lords and the Enemy.

Origins

Ceding from the House of Lungbarrow (NA: Christmas on a Rational Planet), Grandfather created House Paradox around four hundred years before what would have been the War in Heaven. To the Time Lords, then sterile under Pythia's curse, the title 'Grandfather' was as offensive as the new House's interest in paradox and the mockery to Time Lords' pretension to immortality implicit in House Paradox's death-fetishism.

The Grandfather founded the Eleven-Day Empire during this time, but was arrested and imprisoned on Shada before House Paradox had Loomed its first generation (FP: The Book of the War).

On escaping during the crisis surrounding the Carnival Queen (NA: Christmas on a Rational Planet) the Grandfather surrendered Paradox's status as a House, transforming it instead into a Faction. Departing Gallifrey and starting to recruit members from other species, Faction Paradox completed the transition from Gallifreyan chapterhouse into criminal/political/voodoo/terrorist cult.
