Sir William of Clinton

**General Sir William Otter KCB (3 December 1843 - 6 May 1929)** was a Canadian colonial administrator, military officer and soldier. He was a veteran of the Second Anglo-U.S. War, the Metis Rebellion of 1885, the Anglo-Cree War of 1885 and the Second Anglo-Boer War. During his career, he served as second Chief of the General Staff of the Army of the Dominion of Canada and the first Director of Internment Operations for the Ministry of Defence.

Otter's administration supervised the armed forces of the Dominion of Canada between 1908-1910, during which time the country's regional defensive militias were amalgamated and reorganised as the Army of the Dominion of Canada; it was the first professional, standing army raised domestically and served as the foundation of the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War.

Otter's armies subdued the Army of the Transvaal on the banks of the Modder river, capturing one tenth of the entire army's forces and it's commanding officer, General Piet Cronje, in a single engagement. The ensuing *Treaty of Vereeniging, 1902*, stipulated complete capitulation: every citizen of the Transvaal was compelled to asseverate fealty to the Crown and their territory was annexed.

Personally, Sir William fought alongside imperial forces during the attempted occupations of the St. Lawrence river valley by U.S. filibusterers, the pillaging of Battleford by the Cree and the conquest of the Transvaal. He authored *The Infantry Guide*, a dissertation on martial conduct and instruction for infantrymen and their officers which specialised in the defence of vast territories against opponents with numerically superior forces; drawing from his experiences between 1866-1870, Otter anticipated war with the United States of America and prepared his soldiers for such a conflict. Later, as an agent for the Ministry of National Defence, he supervised the mass detainment and deportation of tens of thousands of foreign nationals from the Dominion of Canada during the First World War.
James Wolfe

> *"The impossibility of a retreat makes no difference in the situation of men resolved to conquer or die; and believe me, my friends, if your conquest could be bought with the blood of your general, he would most cheerfully resign a life which he has long devoted to his country. You know too well the forces which compose their army to dread their superior numbers: belle résolution et très chrétienne. We must teach these scoundrels to make war in a more gentlemanly manner; I intend to leave famine and desolation behind me. Now God be praised, I will die contented."* - James Wolfe
>

**Major-General James Wolfe (2 January 1727 - 13 September 1759)** was a Canadian military officer and soldier. He was a veteran of the fifth European Coalition War, the third Jacobite Revolution and the fifth Anglo-French War. During his career, Wolfe served as a Major-General in the British Army of North America

His armies conquered the Fortress of Louisbourg in Acadia, depriving the French Fleet of strategic control of the Gulf of St. Lawrence and rendering Montreal, the capital of the French Colonial Empire, vulnerable to naval invasion. In subsequence, his forces conducted a campaign of ethnic cleansing against the French diaspora in Nova Scotia & Prince Edward Island and occupied the City of Quebec, vanquishing the final stronghold of the French Army in the country.

Personally, Wolfe oversaw the mass killing and deportation of French settlers in the Colonies of Acadia & Ile de Royal, the largest agrarian populations in the French Colonial Empire; this campaign deprived the French army of it's largest body of volunteer servicemen and the Fortress of Loisbourg of it's principal source of food. He led the first Division of the British Army of North America victoriously during the conquest of Fort Louisbourg, the core of Quebec's defensive nexus, thus enabling the complete conquest of the country: to the latter end, he led a division of the British Army of North America during the conquest of the City of Quebec, the last major military stronghold of the French Colonial Empire. In the final endeavour, Wolfe gave his life.
Sir Hugh of Montreal

**Sir Hugh Allan KCMG (29 September 1810 - 9 December 1882)** was a Canadian businessman, colonialist, engineer, and soldier. He was a veteran of the Quebec Rebellion of 1837. During his career, he served as first Director of the Transcontinental Railroad Company of Canada and first Director of the Imperial Trans-Atlantic Shipping Line.

Allan's company administrated the British Empire's trans-Atlantic shipping routes between 1835 & 1882, during which time millions of colonists were transported from Britain to Canada, communication and transportation infrastructure was developed across the continent to support the country's colonisation and the St. Lawrence River valley was rendered the nexus of the Empire's commercial marketplace. During his tenure, he managed the manufacture and shipping of armaments for the British Army during the Russo-Turkish War and First Anglo-Zulu War, moderated the settlement of millions of immigrants across the continent and facilitated transcontinental travel, rendering the Dominion of Canada the conduit for trade between the United Kingdom and the eastern territories of the Empire.

Personally, Sir Hugh financed the development of canals, railways and telegraphy systems throughout Canada, fought alongside domestic militias during the mollification of the revolting Quebecois and recruited millions of colonists from the United Kingdom to people the country. As the coordinator of immigration to the Dominion, he managed the settlement of British emigrants and provided employment in the manufacturing of coal, iron, pulp, steel and textiles. Later, as an agent of the Crown, he facilitated the nationalisation of his company's railways and telegraphs.
Sir William of Sherbrooke

**Major-General Sir William Heneker KCB (22 August 1867 - 24 May 1939)** was a Canadian martial administrator, military officer and soldier. He was a veteran of the Anglo-Igbo War and the First World War. During his career, he served as Commander-In-Chief of the British Army of the Rhine and first Occupational Governor of the Rhineland Territory.

Heneker's administration governed the German banks of the Rhine River between 1918-1920, during which time the disarmament of the German Army took place, the conditions of the German Reich's surrender were deliberated and the *Treaty of Versailles, 1919* was authored and enshrined by the nations of Europe.

Heneker's armies conquered the Kingdom of Edo, in the process annexing the Niger River valley to the Protectorate of Nigeria. In subsequence, he conducted campaigns against the Anetuno, Aro, Edo, Esan and Ibeku tribes in an effort to pacify regional hostility and secure the Protectorate's supremacy in the country.

Personally, Sir William authored *Bush Warfare*, a martial instruction manual for troops opposing irregular militants and guerrilla fighters which became a mainstay of military education in the United Kingdom & Dominion of Canada. He oversaw the displacement of the Igbo tribes from the Niger River Delta; this campaign mollified the belligerence of the natives toward British administrators, civilians and troops in the Nigeria Protectorate and halted the largest slave trafficking operation in West Africa. He led Column No. 4 of the Benin Expeditionary Force victoriously during the razing of the villages of Aro-Okigbo, Edo, Ehor, Idumere and Udo. Later, as Commander of the 54th Infantry Brigade of the British Expeditionary Force, he helped expel the German Army from Gaul and oversaw the post-war occupation of the Rhine River valley.
Sir Provo of Halifax

**First** **Admiral of the Fleet Sir Provo Wallis GCB (12 April 1791 - 13 February 1892)** was a Canadian naval officer and soldier. He was a veteran of the Fourth, Fifth & Sixth European Coalition Wars, the First Anglo-U.S. War and the First Franco-Mestizo War. During his career, he served as the forty-second First Admiral of the Royal Navy of the United Kingdom of Great Britain.

Provo's administration governed Her Majesty's Ships between 1875 and 1892, during which time the 'Two-Power Standard' was developed and the Fleet of the Royal Navy experienced an unprecedented expansion; dozens of battleships and cruisers were constructed and the fleet maintained, at all times, strength equal to that of the combined strength of the two greatest naval powers inferior to that of the British Empire. During his tenure, he led the effort to suppress the trans-Atlantic slave trade in the South Atlantic Ocean.

Provo's navies captured Jewish, Portuguese and Spanish vessels transporting chattel slaves between the Caribbean, West Africa and South America, expelled the Imperial French Marine from the Caribbean, occupied the French Colonies of Guadeloupe & Martinique and repelled the naval forces of the United States from the Gulf of St. Lawrence and North American Great Lakes; these operation uprooted the last rivals to the Royal Navy and secured the naval hegemony of the British Empire in the North Atlantic

Personally, Sir Provo fought alongside imperial naval forces during the expulsion of the U.S. Navy from the Gulf of St. Lawrence & North American Great Lakes, the occupation of Guadeloupe & Martinique and the extirpation of the Imperial French Marine in the Caribbean. Later, he commanded the North America & West Indies Squadron during the suppression of the trans-Atlantic slave trade; the largest human-trafficking operation in the world at the time, these operations terminated slave traffic across the South Atlantic Ocean.
Edward Archibald

> "*To gather knowledge is the noblest occupation of the physician; to apply it with understanding and sympathy to the relief of human suffering is the loveliest occupation.*"
>
>

**Major** **Edward William Archibald M.D. (5 August 1872 - 17 December 1945)** was a Canadian educator, physician, surgeon and soldier. He was a veteran of the First World War & Second World War. During his career, he served as, Chief Surgeon & Professor of Pathology for the Royal Hospital of Montreal and Chief Surgeon of the Pediatric Hospital of Montreal.

Archibald's laboratory developed neurocellular electrotherapy for the treatment of individuals afflicted with epilepsy and the extrapleural thoracoplasty and sphincteronomy procedures for pneumonia and pancreatitis, respectively. His team completed the first successful revascularising, coronary transplantation surgery for the treatment of coronary ischemia, the most fruitful therapy for the greatest cause of death globally. He and his colleagues are accredited with the inception of the most effective treatments for heart disease, epilepsy, pneumonia and tuberculosis refined contemporaneously.

Personally, Edward authored *Surgical Affection*, a monograph elucidating the practical application of neurosurgical theory; the most comprehensive explication of neurosurgery, it became an educational standard throughout Europe & North America. He fought alongside imperial forces during the conquest of Flanders & Picardy and managed General Hospital No. 3 of the Canadian Armed Forces which provided indiscriminate medical assistance to injured civilians and soldiers on either side of the conflict.
John MacDonald

**Sir John MacDonald GCB PC QC (11 January 1815 - 6 June 1891)** was a Canadian colonial administrator, businessman, politician and soldier. He was a veteran of the Ontario Rebellion of 1837. During his career, he served as first Prime Minister of the Dominion of Canada, first Attorney-General of the Dominion of Canada and first Ambassador for the British Empire to the Republic of the United States.

MacDonald's administration governed Canada between 1867-1873 and 1878-1891, during which time the Provinces of British North America were centralised into a confederated Kingdom, the state expanded it's territory threefold, the Cree-Metis Rebellion of 1885 occurred and construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway was completed; then the largest railroad in the world and the centrepiece of the most extensive assembly of human infrastructure ever developed. During his tenure, he annexed the territories of the British Hudson Bay Company, developed the constitutional law of the Dominion and upheld the principles of the *Royal Proclamation of 1763*, issued by His Majesty, King George III.

Personally, MacDonald authored the *British North America Act, 1867*, the Constitution of the Dominion of Canada, erecting the nation's first self-governing, colonial Kingdom and rendering the Canadian diaspora an equal of Great Britain in the affairs of the British Empire; this constitution would serve as the legal foundation of the Dominions of Australia, Newfoundland, New Zealand and South Africa, four other states founded by the British colonial diaspora. Later, as Prime Minister of the new Dominion, MacDonald drafted and introduced the *Beringian Act, 1876*, enshrining the principles of King George III's *Proclamation of 1763* in law; this proclamation guaranteed the respect of the Crown & Nation in regards to the territorial sovereignty of the 614 tribes of British North America with which the Crown maintained treaties and deliberated the relationship between the Crown, the Dominion and the tribes. This act and the treaties themselves were, thus, vested in the Dominion's Constitution.
Elder

Elder as he appears on a cover of Across the Universe

**Elder** is the main deuteragonist of the Across the Universe series. Elder was initially the future leader of Godspeed and was training to become an Eldest and was under the care of Eldest before his death, after which he became the ship’s Eldest despite being the youngest person aboard. Elder resides in the Keeper Level.

## Appearance

Elder has dark, olive skin, dark black hair and eyes and a muscular build. Elder is a copy of every Elder before him, so his features are the same as those of Orion and Eldest’s. According to Amy Martin, Elder has a very handsome face.

Just like the feeders, Elder wears a pale taupe tunic and chocolate brown trousers.

## Personality

Elder is shown to be a curious and determined boy who often gets emotional over small problems. At times he easily loses his temper, especially around Eldest, but always apologises shortly after.

Despite always pondering to himself and asking himself if he can be a great leader of Godspeed, Elder is shown to be surprisingly reckless, usually not thinking ahead about the consequence of his actions, which was shown when he accidentally threw the whole Keeper Level into lockdown or when he unplugged Amy.

Even though he doesn’t realise it, Eldest is a strong, intelligent, determined leader, even choosing to rule Godspeed without any Phydus. In other words, Elder is the complete opposite of his mentor Eldest.
Godspeed

Godspeed as it appears on the official website.

**Godspeed**, known previously as ‘Project Ark Ship’ is a massive ship bound for the planet Centauri-Earth. Godspeed has over 2,000 passengers and has three levels, each of which are reserved for specific people. However, there is a secret level below the Feeder Level where the cryogenically frozen passengers are kept. The ship is named ‘Godspeed’ which means, according to Eldest, luck.

## List of Levels

 Storage Level | A mysterious level located below the Feeder Level that contains cryogenically frozen passengers, additional cargo and a research laboratory.

Backyard Crew

**Highest Placing Member** | Vivian Pinhosa (1/16)

**Backyard Crew** is an alliance on *Big Brother 2* that consisted of Bradley Hernandez, Jun Kim, Korbin Larson, Tanner Knox, & Vivian Pinhosa. This faction of the house is pitted against the other group in the house which would later be led by Canucks, which they were once affiliates with the group would later defected. Amidst dominating the game the first week, a blowup occurred between Bradley and Rowan, resulting in the alliance becoming targets, each member leaving for two consecutive weeks.

Despite only half of the alliance remaining in the form of Bradley, Jun, and Vivian, they regained power in Week 6. They also managed to get in the majority like when Jun Kim flipped Ashleigh Lyons to their side (soon they developed a showmance relationship), and Bradley Hernandez formed a stronger bond with Layla Summers. After getting into the majority, they quickly took control of the game and three of their members, along with main affiliates Ashleigh and Layla, made it to the jury phase.

By the Final Five, the last two surviving members dominated the second-half of the game and successfully eliminated almost everyone from the other side of the house before both defected on each other. Despite their defection, their dominance and loyalty can be considered as the most entertaining yet successful alliance in Sims Big Brother history after the Four Horsemen.

## Trivia

* Vivian Pinhosa was nominated the most times at 8.
* Korbin Larson and Tanner Knox are the only members not to make it to the jury stage.
* The Backyard Crew (mostly to Bradley) has been affected by all three temptations, negatively by the first two, and positively by the last one:
	+ After Layla Summers saved herself by the Pendant of Protection, Tanner became nominated in her place and was soon backdoored by a 5-4-2 vote.
	+ Bradley was chosen to play in a Veto competition but was then replaced by Rowan Austin-Mossle due to the Ring of Replacement, and he was specifically affected by the curse.
	+ Bradley was nominated against Jun Kim on eviction night, but then he used the Halting Hex to save them both from potential eviction.
* Vivian is the only female member of the alliance, yet somehow, she managed to win the game.
Orion

**Orion** is the main antagonist in the first book of the Across the Universe series. Orion was initially an Elder but acted foolishly and recklessly, which resulted in Eldest ordering Doc to have him killed using Phydus. However, Doc had mistakenly let Orion live so he became a recorder in the Recorder Hall located in the Feeder Level. Orion was eventually frozen by Elder when he shoved him (Orion) into a cryofreezer and froze him.

## Appearance

Orion looks exactly like Elder except older, as Elders are clones of the Elder before them. The only features that separate the two is a long, spiderweb scar snaking along his neck that Orion got after ripping his wi-com straight out of his flesh. Orion also has a long scar on his thumb and yellowed teeth.

Orion wears the same pale taupe tunic and chocolate brown trousers as every other passenger on the ship.
Eldest

**Eldest** is a major supporting character in the first book of the Across the Universe series and was the previous leader of the ship Godspeed. He was also Elder’s mentor. Eldest lived on the Keeper Level along with Elder. Eldest died towards the end of the first book after being exposed to too much Phydus when Orion tried to kill him.

## Appearance

Eldest bears several features that are similar to that of Elder and Orion as Elders are clones of every Elder before them. The only features that make Eldest distinguishable between the two are his wrinkles, white hair and terrible limp which he got from a bad leg injury which never fully healed.

Eldest wears the same pale taupe tunic and chocolate brown trousers as every other passenger aboard the ship.

## Personality

Eldest is a crude, arrogant dictator who prefers things quiet and controlled. Eldest cannot stand differences, as he disapproves of Amy Martin’s ’freakishness,’ even calling her a freak straight to her face. Eldest, however, is willing to do his best in training Elder and is very serious about his education.

Eldest‘s false personality, which according to Elder is like that of an old grandpa, is only shown when Eldest is around Feeders, which shows that Eldest is very self-conscious when it comes to his public image. Eldest loves prideful and sacrificial people, which was shown at the start of the series when Elder attempted to sacrifice himself to save the ship when he thought it was exposed to ‘space.’

Being into quiet and controlled things, Eldest rules Godspeed using Phydus, a drug developed after the so-called ‘Plague‘ which is said to have wiped out two thirds of the ship’s population nearly three centuries ago.

Eldest also prefers hiding the truth from his people rather then telling it to them as he told them that Godspeed was set to land in 75 years when it was in fact 250 years behind schedule.
Amy Martin

Amy as she appears on a cover of Across the Universe

**Amy Martin** is the main protagonist of the Across the Universe series and is from the planet Sol-Earth. After being cryogenically frozen and boarded onto a ship bound for a new life-sustaining planet known as Centauri-Earth, Amy is abruptly woken from her frozen slumber, fifty years before the ship’s scheduled arrival. Upon waking up in Godspeed, Amy started residing in the hospital located in the Feeder Level.

## Appearance

As the people of Godspeed are monoethnic, Amy is easily distinguished from the ship’s crew by her distinct and ‘unusual’ features such her blazing red hair, pale white skin and green eyes. Though majority of the crew aboard the ship find her strange-looking, Elder is the only person who finds her attractive.

The crew members of Godspeed wear pale taupe tunics and chocolate brown trousers. Amy wears the same outfit, except that her set is decorated with painted flowers on the hens.

## Personality

Amy may appear cold at first, but becomes noticeably more open around people whom she knows better, which is shown when she is conversing with Elder, Harley, Orion or Steela. She preferably chooses to ignore the people who see her as a disturbance, but initially had a strong disliking for Eldest before he died.

Amy is a keen intellect, being able to assess the situations that occur around her. It was through her suspicions that they discovered that Orion was the murderer. Being extremely careful around her surroundings, especially after being attacked by Luthe and his friends, Amy is one person who doesn’t trust others easily unless they prove their worth to her.

### Wildcard Competition

If the winner decides to accept safety for the week, it will result in a punishment that may affect them, their team, or the entire house. Due to the team winning the HOH competition in week one, the Jokers were not eligible to compete in the Wildcard Competition.

Sir Frederick of Alliston

**Captain Sir Frederick Banting FRS KBE MC (14 November 1891 - 21 February 1941)**was a Canadian educator, inventor, physician and soldier. He was a veteran of the First World War. During his career, he served as first Chairman of the Royal Committee for Medical Research. In 1923, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for producing the first successful treatment for the hereditary, metabolic disorder Diabetes Mellitus.

Banting's laboratory extracted and purified the peptide hormone insulin from the islets of the canine pancreas. Correctly presumed to have therapeutic properties when administered subcutaneously to individuals afflicted by diabetes, Banting and his colleagues are accredited with preserving the lives of tens of millions annually; prior to their discovery, those diagnosed with diabetes faced a mortality rate of 82%. His team sold their research and the patent for insulin to the King's University of Toronto for $1, desiring it to become as widely available to their nation as possible.

Personally, Sir Frederick fought alongside imperial forces during the conquest of Flanders and directed the experimental research department of the King's University of Toronto, during which time he conducted experiments which successfully isolated insulin from the islets of canine pancreas. Later, as Chairman of the Committee for Medical Research & Chief of Clinical Investigation Unit #1, Banting developed anti-gravitational equipment for high-altitude pilots, recorded the effects of dermal diffusion & respiration of mustard gas, testing the poison upon himself for ethical and pragmatic purposes, and oversaw the British Empire's chemical weapons development programme for the duration of the inter-war period.

## Trivia

* During her time in the Big Brother house, she only competed in HOH competitions.
Backdoor

The **backdoor technique**, also known as the **six-finger plan**, is a strategic move devised by the Four Horsemen alliance, mostly credited to Ramon Sanchez and Sonny McCoy, and executed by the latter in *Big Brother 1*. It requires the Head of Household not nominating the intended target to be evicted, choosing instead to nominate two pawns, at the nomination ceremony in order to prevent the target from being guaranteed to play in the Power of Veto competition. Provided the intended target does not play in the Veto competition, the POV holder would then remove a pawn from the block, and the HOH would place the intended target on the block to be subsequently evicted. Despite debate among fans, it is generally agreed that a true backdoor only happens when the target DOES NOT play in the Veto competition.

It is a difficult technique to pull off, but if one has a group large enough to carry it out, a backdoor can be performed. It requires having 6 players to agree with the plan, and enough non-HOH and non-nominee houseguests to want to evict the target.

The backdoor was further complicated when houseguests no longer selected players for the Veto competition but instead drew names from a bag randomly. If the target plays in the Veto competition and loses, then they become the replacement nominee, but the plan would no longer be a successful backdoor as the target would have played in the Veto competition.

Though surviving a backdoor plan is extremely difficult, it is possible. Such a feat was notably accomplished by Sonny McCoy on *Big Brother 1*. He is notable for surviving the backdoor plan twice during Week 3 and Week 5, to which eventually evicting his allies Brandon Zamora and Cassie Starnes.

Ramon Sanchez also devised, alongside with Jacob Okumura, a different version of the backdoor technique known by fans as the **misted backdoor**. It follows the same pattern of the backdoor plan, but it does involve with the acknowledgement of the Head of Household itself. It requires a player to persuade or manipulate the Head of Household to place the intended target on the block and lulled its target a false sense of security into thinking were used as a pawn until to be subsequently evicted.

Also on *Big Brother 1*, Sharon Carren became the first victim of the misted backdoor when Jacob manipulated her closest ally and HoH Lillian Lewis into nominating her as a "pawn" and Ramon successfully campaigned almost the entire house to vote her out for being deemed as "playing both sides." Sharon was eventually blindsided and backdoored on Week 4.
