"As a Time Master of long standing, you seem to forget our responsibility is to protect the timeline, not humanity."
—Time Master councilor to Rip Hunter[src]


The Time Masters are a council of individuals tasked with protecting the timeline. They are also associates of Vandal Savage. Although the organization states that its goal to keep the timeline, it is ultimately nothing more than a façade, as they used a device called the Oculus that would give them a vision of the "true timeline", but the senior members used it to manipulate the timeline; something that that most members of the group are not aware of.

History

Vanishing Point

The HQ of Time Masters in the Vanishing Point.

Rip Hunter stood before the council, requesting a team to take on Vandal Savage and prevent him from massacring anyone more. However, the council turned a blind eye, standing by their decision. Instead, Rip took his ship, the Waverider, and took on the mission anyway, in doing so relinquishing his position as a Time Master. They subsequently sent Chronos after him, to bring him in.[1]

Chronos followed the team, but failed again, and so Time Master Druce was sent to try and bring in Rip and his entire team. Druce pretended to offer Rip and his team amnesty, but when Rip seemingly conceded, Chronos turned up to execute him. However, Mick Rory forewarned Rip of the betrayal and, assisted by Firestorm, thwarted Druce and Chronos, forcing them to flee.[2]

Ultimately, Rip's team was able to capture Savage in 2166, along with evidence that he was tampering with time to acquiring futuristic technology for his conquest of Earth. Despite this justifying Rip's mission to stop Savage, it was revealed that the Time Masters have sided with Savage, believing him to be crucial to the balance of the timeline, opting to return him to 2166 and imprison Rip and his team.

The Time Masters capture every member of the team except Leonard Snart, Sara Lance, and Jefferson Jackson. They released Kendra Saunders and Scythian Torvil into Savage's "care". They also planned to brainwash Rory into becoming Chronos. Druce, in order to get Hunter to abandon his obsession, showed him the Time Masters' ace in the hole, the Oculus, a device that could be used to influence decisions. He explains not only has he been controlling the teams' actions for months but also that he was the mastermind behind Savage's rise to power, wanting Savage to take over the world in order to prepare the Earth's armies for an alien invasion in 2175.

Subsequently, Sara and Snart sabotage the Time Masters' time fleet before freeing their teammates; Rory revealed himself to have resisted being brainwashed before killing Time Master Declan. Druce anticipated that Rip would try to target the Oculus Wellspring to free his team from his manipulations and thus set an ambush, claiming it to be destiny. However, Jax appeared unexpectedly, having returned from early 2016, enabling the team to get to the wellspring. Though the Oculus had predicted that Ray Palmer would sacrifice himself to destroy it, Rory took his place, then Snart. Druce was helpless as Snart defiantly destroyed the Oculus, crippling the Time Masters' ability to analyze and manipulate the timeline.
