Glance, I will 
thanks.
Serloco, time keeper was just a goofy phrase I used to simplify a larger concept. To avoid speaking about my power over time, I think it's more important to identify other figures. There are people, throughout time who have been labeled as prophets, soothsayers, etc who see potential futures. Those people move ahead in time to view futures beyond their individual selves. They can communicate those events when they purposefully focus on specific threads of awareness. Usually, these individuals don't care to view threads--there are better things to view than the spiritual lifetime reality shows xP These people tend to be rather strange and predictably, they live on the fringe of society because the knowledge they carry is not well understood by normal people. Those people live in two worlds and can bridge one world with another, but I imagine it's tough living two sorts of lives that require very different HAPs. Typically, it's easier to pick one and then just use the other as a vacation home
I suspect this is also why many people experience the side-effect of mental illness. A sudden extreme HAP shift leaves the mind unstable. Without the proper support structures, a mind will fall. Without the skilled shaman to help one mind understand the spiritual mind, it's often too much information. The mentally ill are those who were brave enough to find the other world but lacked a village (or shaman) to help them stabilize the transition.
So time keepers and those with a command over time are just people with the power to jump forward and/or backward in time. Backward meaning they can see the history of people and the sort of experiences that defined them. It's very private, so it's often touchy topics that are best left unsaid--unless there's a reason to publicize it. It is also the time keepers who have an uncanny ability to figure out the mechanisms of how a person functions. Skilled steamers (stalkers and dreamers combined) are particularly odd to most.
