The [[Scrolls of Gallifrey]] claimed that the White and Black Guardian were created by [[Matrix Rassilon|Rassilon]] from within [[the Matrix]] shortly after his official "[[death]]" and resurrection as a [[Matrix Lord]]. Creating the two so that they could help him maintain cosmic balance, Rassilon entrusted them with the [[Key to Time]].

([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Legacy of Gallifrey (short story)|The Legacy of Gallifrey]]'') In a similar but different account, the [[Sixth Doctor]] knew that the two Guardians were of "the same species" as [[God (mythology)|God]]. During an encounter with God which was later erased from his and [[Peri Brown|Peri]]'s minds, God claimed that he had originally created a single Guardian, a being of the same nature as Himself whom he sealed inside the universe when He created it, entrusting him with the [[Key to Time]] so that he could replace the univere's "[[heart]]", the central power-source keeping it running, when the time was right. However, God had not anticipated that upon entering the universe, the Guardian would splinter into two halves, one good White Guardian and one bad Black Guardian, who would waste their energies fighting one another.

In another account, the [[Celestial Toymaker]] claimed that there were actually six guardians, not two, with himself being another Guardian, and also that all six of them were in actuality [[Great Old One]]s from the [[pre-universe]], who had found new roles and new powers after surviving into the history of [[N-Space]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Divided Loyalties (novel)|Divided Loyalties]]'') Accordingly, one account claimed the Guardians of Time were all in attendance for the [[Event One|creation of the universe]] — ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Whoniverse (novel)|The Whoniverse]]'') although yet another account suggested that the sentient principle of "evil" who had witnessed the beginning of the cosmos was [[Fenric]].
