He's (or "they're") not intended to be anything like a Time Lord. The myths believe him to be a... Shall we say "criminal without a crime." And some unknown force (maybe a "genie without a mind") is mildly pissed off at him/them. So now he's hoping through time (and maybe space) to run from said eldtrich being. Or at least, that's what some archeologists summarized the myth as.
