The disappearance of the Time Lords created a vacuum that may have left history more vulnerable to change. The [[Ninth Doctor]] explained to [[Rose Tyler]], ([[TV]]: ''[[The Unquiet Dead (TV story)|The Unquiet Dead]]'') the [[Tenth Doctor|Tenth]] to [[Donna Noble]] ([[TV]]: ''[[The Unicorn and the Wasp (TV story)|The Unicorn and the Wasp]]'') and the [[Eleventh Doctor|Eleventh]] to [[Clara Oswald]] ([[TV]]: ''[[Cold War (TV story)|Cold War]]'') that time was in flux and history could change instantly. One demonstration of this was when Rose created a [[temporal paradox]] by saving her father, [[Peter Tyler|Pete]], just before his death in a traffic accident. This summoned the [[Reaper]]s, who descended to sterilise the "wound" in time by devouring everything in sight. The Ninth Doctor said that if the Time Lords had been still around, they could have held back the Reapers and prevented or repaired the paradox.

According to the Tenth Doctor, certain areas like the [[Null Zone]] became "tricky" places for time travel.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Supremacy of the Cybermen (comic story)|Supremacy of the Cybermen]]'') As well, the Tenth Doctor noted that when the Time Lords were around, travel between [[Parallel universe|parallel worlds]] was far less difficult. With their disappearance, the [[walls of reality]] were closed. ([[TV]]: ''[[Rise of the Cybermen (TV story)|Rise of the Cybermen]]'') With a sudden power vacuum without the Daleks and Time Lords in the universe, many of the races that had suffered during the War wanted to exploit the vacuum, managing to rise to prominence with only the Doctor left to keep them in line. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Whoniverse (novel)|The Whoniverse]]'') The end of the fighting also created a power vacuum specific to the [[Stellian Galaxy]], which was consumed by centuries of war.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Weapons of Past Destruction (comic story)|Weapons of Past Destruction]]'') Time Agent [[Jack Harkness]], however, initially believed the Time War to be merely a legend.
