Clock-Person

The Clock people were a race who lived in the time vortex.

Biology
The Clock people granted individuals the ability to alter their pasts by correcting mistakes. People who accepted had their timelines erased, since it unravelled their personal history. This allowed the Clock people to take their physical place. The Clock people developed clock-like faces and had clockwork replacing their internal organs. They could also turn back time in their immediate vicinity by two minutes, allowing them to erase moments such as being shot, but turning back even this much time caused them to expend a great deal of energy. (PROSE: Anachrophobia)

History
The Clock people evacuated the time vortex because of the Council of Eight. They were dependent on the breach in the Time Vortex created by Paterson's experiments, which served as their lifeline. They were wiped out when the Eighth Doctor sealed the breach after they had taken over Station One on the planet where the experiments had been carried out (The Doctor having been manipulated by Sabbath into a situation where he would perceive the creatures as a threat rather than refugees).

Behind the scenes
According to Jonathan Blum, Morris has said that the clock-faced men in Anachrophobia are meant to be Faction Paradox, although this is not made explicit in the text.
