Time Bureau

The Time Bureau is an organization whose goal is to protect the timeline, the supposed goal of its predecessor, the Time Masters. It is led by director Ava Sharpe and formerly by Wilbur Bennett and Rip Hunter.

No one is above the laws of the Time Bureau, not even their founder Rip. The Bureau currently leaves the Legends alone as Mallus' machinations are a bigger concern than a team of time traveling blunderers. The Time Bureau was formed to carry on the Time Masters' goal to protect the timeline; however, unlike the corrupt Time Masters, the bureau put value on morals, principles and human life. Its members use a device known as a time courier, that allows them to transport through time and space without the need of a timeship, despite this, they do possess timeships, but they are much larger than the ones that were used by the Time Masters.

They are based in a skyscraper in Star City in 2017 instead of the Vanishing Point. Also, no one is above the Bureau's rules, not even their founder and co-director Rip Hunter; who was arrested and stripped of his status; due to his rogue actions that resulted in the deaths of several agents. After Rip left the Legends from their recent victory against the Legion of Doom, he went off to create a new group to replace the Time Masters. He then saw that the Legends' actions had created an abundance of anachronisms, or people and things getting tossed throughout time.

He spent five years looking for new recruits and setting up a base of operations. With his new Time Bureau, they set off to Los Angeles in 2017, where they began to take all the lost dinosaurs and displaced architectures, and restored them to their proper place and times. The Legends were relieved of their duties for six months. However, during this time, Julius Caesar was spotted in Aruba by Mick Rory.

The Time Bureau attempted to handle it, but were unsuccessful, causing the Legends to reform and steal the Waverider, heading there to fix it. They were able to capture him, sending him back to his original time period, but accidentally sending him with a book detailing Roman history, including his murder. The Legends and Time Bureau were forced to team up, taking the book back and restoring the timeline.

Rip Hunter had gone AWOL and Director Bennett ordered that he be found and arrested. When Rip made contact with Agent Sharpe and the Legends on the situation of Mallus, he tried to arrange a meeting with Bennett but he wouldn't have it and ordered that he be placed under immediate arrest. When Rip Hunter, Agent Sharpe, and Sara Lance tried to convince Bennett to listen as a group, he remained stubborn in his decision. However, he was then quickly killed by Grodd, making the position of Director fall into Sharpe's hands. Her first act was to re-instate Rip Hunter as an agent of the Bureau.
