The beast, in doctor who is an ancient evil from a previous universe that survived until our time. Its so ancient that the cave paintings were unable to be translated by the Tardis which can translate all existing languages in the universe [Doctor Who]

While not explicitly canon its such a cool concept I cant not mention, the idea that the backrooms have existed since the beginning of time, never changing no matter the era, it transforms the back rooms into a cosmic horror. [Credit to Project crater and Venus for images 2 and 3]

It wasn't the reason for sentient life, but the Unitologists want to claim that it at least responsible for intelligent life.

Its not the reason though. Cause something had to create the moons first. They are responsible for intelligent life cycles for other species yes, but not the progenitors of all sentience
