**Montgomery Wilson King** (January 4, 2000 – May 3, 2102) was an American physicist, astronomer, computer scientist, researcher, activist, and expatriate rogue agent. Described as "the most consequential man in world history", King discovered the King Anomaly, his namesake, which would be much later identified as the greatest threat to human civilization and, on a macro-scale, life in the universe. He was an associate professor and researcher for Rice University, and was the author of 27 anonymous books and articles on topics such as government transparency, campaign finance reform, and corruption in politics and the media, as well as 15 authored books on scientific topics in his fields of astrophysics as well as computer science.

Born to a middle-class family in rural Delaware, King grew up during the Great Recession, witnessing first-hand the effects on the middle class. He began studying at the MIT in 2018, taking courses in computer science, mathematics, and astrophysics. While at MIT, he chaired multiple student committees and graduated valedictorian for his class, majoring in computer science with a minor in astrophysics. He would go on to earn a PhD in astrophysics from Princeton University, writing his dissertation on the probability of extraterrestrial life, titled *A* *Reassessment and Reanalyzation of the Drake Equation*. King began teaching at Rice University in 2030 and was an emerging authoritative figure in the field of astrophysics. From 2032 to 2033, he chaired a research team for a Rice University project to further analyze an extraordinarily unique anomaly in the reaches of space. King is credited as the discoverer of this anomaly, which would go on to bear his name: the King Anomaly. King also played a pivotal role in expanding the field of astrophysics and making milestones in the advancement of space exploration technology.

King worked as an operative of the United States Central Intelligence Agency, but later defected due to questionable requests of his skill set. In 2035, King refused to help develop cybernetic automated weaponry for the CIA and instead murdered the director of the branch with which he was working, Michael Schroeder, and left the United States. He was placed on the "FBI Most Wanted List". King then fled to Kyoto, Japan to meet with a colleague he came into contact with during his time with the CIA, named Kazuto. In exile, King actively worked to uproot and anonymously expose corrupt politicians and dark agents in intelligence agencies in the United States and greater Western world. Additionally, he continued his studies with Kazuto, delving far more deeply into the computer science field. During his time with Kazuto, he, unbeknownst to his son, guided his son, Alex, to infiltrate the FBI and insert a bug that would give the Order of Rome total access to the United States' most sensitive documents, which would become vital to the beginning of World War III as well as the Rockwell Takeover in 2112 and the Second American Civil War in 2140.

One of the most brilliant men in history, King influenced a great number of social and political activists, as well as researchers and students of his respective academic fields. He is widely recognized as a radical who sought extreme and illicit means to a good end. In addition to his complicated moral qualities, King was criticized as a hypocrite, especially by those who had ties to the government of the United States and other Western nations. His ideas have proved highly significant within the anti-corruption and pro-democracy movements. His legacy was cemented by his actions undercover, of which there is little empirical evidence. As a result, a great many myths and romanticizations have been conjured about him.
