The First is the overarching, nigh-absolute leader of the Major Explorer Group. He garners de facto leadership of the Editorial Council of the Major Explorer Group, but hardly ever exercises this power.

Life

The First was born a healthy male on June 9th, 1850-1853 (although unconfirmed, the former is likely.) During his first two years of life, he contracted various infections; this was odd, due to the wealth of the family he emerged from, and seemingly healthy practices within. Out of fear of these infections being fatal, the family was very strict on the First. By the age of six, it was decided that he would be homeschooled and tutored until eighteen; then, he would be assessed for health, and sent to the University of Cambridge. This time was very hard for the First, as he remarks having been rejected by other children his age due to his privatized life. At the age of 11, he snuck out of his parents' estate to go to a library; it was quite far, having been a tad over 4 miles away (33 city blocks; 7.5 kilometers.) Nevertheless, the young child managed to reach the library and stayed for a few hours, before deciding to retreat back to the estate. Surprisingly, his parents were home and confronted the child; security was to be increased around the estate, and he would not leave again. Although the First protested, this was entirely in vain. The majority of his life until 18 was rather unremarkable, and thus will not be included in this page.
