According to [[Miss Erehwon|one version]] of [[Jenny Nowhere]], an infinity of groups of Time Lords, acting as representatives of their universe before the [[Council of Frogs]], wished for ''their'' specific realities to be granted a small, memorable number to mark out their importance. Eventually, an “agreement” was reached: one set of Time Lords “got to become the [[Third Universe]] in earnest”, but the others “went home believing ''they''{{'}}d been the lucky winners”. All the sets of Time Lords, however, were given “[[Batrachian Casket|a little casket]], to be opened only in the gravest of emergency, holding the true knowledge of [their] official number”. This was apparently documented in a book called ''[[The Infinity Rassilons|The Infinity]] [[Rassilon]]s'', written by [[Percival Lankin]].

In the [[89067986779811167562948736197891674912223184th Universe]], which was very similar to the [[Third Universe]], Time Lords lived on [[Gallifrey]] and studied at [[the Academy (89067986779811167562948736197891674912223184th Universe)|the Academy]]. [[Andro]] and [[Fabian]] were two “fully-qualified” Time Lords who worked in [[the Old Workshops]] watching over the docking bays of damaged [[TARDIS]]es; neither was on his first life. Young Time Lords could also fast-track through the Academy to become [[Junior Time Technician]]s who would be able to work directly with TARDISes much sooner, albeit in a subaltern capacity. When he first met her, the [[First Doctor (89067986779811167562948736197891674912223184th Universe)|First Doctor]] initially wondered if [[Jenny Nowhere (Set Up to Blow Up)|Jenny Nowhere]] was a fellow Time Lord, perhaps [[Magnus (89067986779811167562948736197891674912223184th Universe)|an old friend]] in a new body, but was puzzled at her lack of “[[Great House|House]] or [[Gallifreyan Chapter|Chapter]] identification of any kind”.
