The Black Guardian created the construct known as [[Cuthbert (The Sands of Life)|Cuthbert]], a "self-made" man because his timeline was a [[temporal paradox]], whereby he created his own existence. As such, his company the [[Conglomerate]] was so entwined with [[history]] that to destroy it would cause chaos throughout the universe. Using the alias "Mr. Edge" and believing the Doctor must follow a moral code, he tried to trick the Doctor into shooting Cuthbert and killing him, preventing him from influencing history. However, he Doctor realised the truth because Edge couldn't kill Cuthbert himself, and refused to stop Cuthbert from firing on a [[Salonu]] ship. Although he missed, the ship still crashed on [[6th century]] [[Earth]], and history continued, foiling the Guardian.

A second attempt at revenge occurred when he lured the Doctor and Romana to [[Barclow]]. He engineered the war between the [[human]]s and the [[Chelonian]]s as well as manipulating [[Galatea (The Well-Mannered War)|Galatea]] to create the concept of consular privilege to allow K9 to become a presidential candidate. [[Menlove Stokes]] was used in the plans to destroy the femdroids' controls and set the TARDIS' controls to take them to [[Dellah]] in the [[26th century]]. He bargained on the Doctor's rash decisions to set [[The Darkness (The Well-Mannered War)|the Darkness]] on the universe when the Doctor dematerialised the TARDIS, planning to send them into deep space. The Doctor foiled his plans again by using the [[emergency unit]] to take himself out of time and space.
