According to a subtly different account, the Guardians of Good and Evil were twin projections of the forces of the universes whom [[Matrix Rassilon|Rassilon]] created from within [[the Matrix]], using the [[Amplified Panatropic Computation]] network to boost his mental powers and those of [[Matrix Lord|the other dead Time Lords]]. He gave them the [[Key to Time]] to allow them to stop the universe if it fell out of balance.

''[[The Book of the War]]''{{'}}s entry on the class of beings which [[Faction Paradox]] termed ''[[loa]]'' in a reference to [[Earth]] [[voodoo]] outlined that in the Faction's understanding, "the processes of time [were] ''entities''" such that time was "occupied, even guarded" by beings possessing "no tangible presence in the universe" but retaining the ability to "protect, beguile, curse and possess anybody who tries to cross their boundaries". In contrast to the Faction's view, the [[Great House]]s generally preferred to insist that the complex emergent systems within the [[Web of Time|structure of time]] were simply non-sentient [[equation]]s, although the events of [[the War]] seemed to prove them wrong.

Other accounts suggested the Guardians were "[[Great Old One]]s", survivors of an [[earlier race of Time Lords]] from [[Great Old Ones' universe|another universe]]. These accounts suggested that the Guardians' natural form, like the other Old Ones, was a collective [[consciousness]] possessing neither form nor substance and existing between [[dimension]]s. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Divided Loyalties (novel)|Divided Loyalties]]'') Physically, the Council of Guardians existed in [[Calabi-Yau Space]]. When together, they were the Six-Fold-God of the [[Six-Fold-Realm]] and were able to fashion space and time anyway they wanted.
