The Explorer

"The Explorer" is the nickname given to an unnamed Time Lord who also goes by many names along their travels. They travelled through time and space with their "borrowed" Type 82 Tardis which they dubbed "The Explorers Hand" and with some accomplices along their way. They weren't known unlike The Doctor who whizzed about the universe, saving it with his companions throughout time and space as The Explorer took their name from their occupation which was exploration.
They were courageous and kind throughout all their incarnations, caring about most people they ran into. They loved helping anyone they could and tried to ensure no one was hurt or killed during their travels but sometimes death did occur to those who crossed paths with them and these deaths left a mark on The Explorer.
Their first incarnation took inspiration from The Doctor when he stole a Type-40 TARDIS and stole his own Type-82 TARDIS to fly about the universe and explore the mysteries and wonders it has to offer. He has a strong admiration for the stars and beyond and enjoys his time in his TARDIS.
== First Incarnation ==
=== Early Days ===
==== Life on Gallifrey ====
Carey was born on Gallifrey, years after the Time War was finished and Gallifrey was sent to its pocket universe, as a male and grew up with his family until the age of 8 where he was taken to join the Academy to become a Time Lord fully. He stared into the Untempered Schism and grew a great love for the stars above and beyond in the universe he knows. He joined the Gallifreyan Military, however, hoping to defend his home world from any unwanted threats that were against the Time Lords. As the years went by Carey was continuously doing drills and training new recruits of the Military for a hundred years and all while nothing came for the military to be used for. Carey grew bored as time went on and decided enough was enough, time to use his powers of a Time Lord for the universe.
He took it upon himself to get off world and have a life of his own and see the stars for himself. One night he snuck into the TARDIS repair vault, taking heavy inspiration from The Doctor, and stole a fully restored TARDIS that was about to be put back into service. He entered the vessel and made a quick comment about the interior design, not liking it, and set off to rip himself out of the Pocket Universe Gallifrey was located in. The TARDIS warned him that he might not be able to come back if he does and made his choice to leave. The ship flew through the Time Vortex as he strolled about the console room, thinking of what look to go for. He made his way to the wardrobe and picked out clothing that would replace his uniform. He settled on a western style with a black duster and a light grey waistcoat. He also wore an accompanying Stetson hat. 
==== First exploration ====
By the time he returned to the console room, the theme was chosen and displayed red brick pillars and a red time rotor column. There were book shelves on the upper balcony and hallways leading to the other rooms on the bottom floor. The TARDIS landed in London, by the Docklands in the year 1944. The city was in the midst of the Second World War as the German Luftwaffe were pounding the city with bombs. His TARDIS disguised itself as a ruined K2 Phone Booth on a city corner to fit in with the destroyed setting he landed in. He decided to provide minimal aid to the locals who were fearing death and loss of the War more so than anyone could understand. He decided to stay for a few years after his first landing as he couldn't find the right phone booth and loved the local area. However his call for travel was beckoning him back to his life as he found the TARDIS and set off to explore more new worlds.
=== Exploring the Future ===
==== Landing in 2143 America ====
The next place The Explorer landed at was Detroit in the year 2143. He stepped out of his TARDIS, which retained the red K2 Phone Booth look as he grew attached to it, and explored the futuristic city of the 22nd Century. He decided to look about the area and see what this city in this time period had to offer. He stumbled onto the wrong street and into gang territory, which had a tense atmosphere as he was an "outsider" to them. They decided to try and attack The Explorer as the gang leader presented his Desert Eagle and the grunts presented basic knives or simple lower caliber pistols. Carey was delighted to find his training at the Gallifreyan Military wasn't for nothing and used it during the fight which broke out immediately. Gunshots rang about but none hit Carey directly, but did leave holes in his duster. After taking out the gang members he decided to steal the leaders Desert Eagle and head for the head of the entire criminal organization to stop the gang violence he was almost killed by. His determination was a strong will that even the strongest star couldn't break.
==== Taking out the Criminal Organization ====
The Explorer returned to his TARDIS and sought after the information he desired through the ships immense databanks and located the head office for the Kingpin of the group. He set course for, and landed in, his office where he was protected by two guards. The Explorer opened the door and used the recently acquired weapon to kill the two guards with a swift shot to the head for each. He then aimed at the head of the organization who threw his hands up and protested about the violence. However, The Explorer wasn't budging and decided to end his life, shooting the remaining rounds into the kingpin's torso. He looked at the massacre he unleashed upon this small group of people and felt regret in what he did, deciding the best course of action was to put it behind him and learn from it. He thought that it was best to use the weapon when needed and not as a means to exact revenge or cause mindless violence. He walked back into his TARDIS and fashioned a holster for the gun, replacing his damaged clothes with cleaner and fresher ones and set off to the next place to explore or lay down for a while to recount his actions and regain a sense of decency in his soul.
