## Background

### **1959 - 1994: Moira MacTaggert**

Moira Kinross-MacTaggert was born to powerful businessman Joseph MacTaggert & Elizabeth Kinross, a prominent family in Scotland. Moira lived a quite uneventful life, given everything she ever need to nourish her growing appetite for knowledge.

She specifically became interested in anthropology & genetics. Wanting to see the world outside of Scotland & even Europe, Moira took herself to the states & enrolled at Empire State University in New York City.

While studying to eventually get her PhD, she eventually met Charles Xavier, a professor in genetics. She soon fell in love with his knowledge of various subject then soo fell for the man himself. Their passionate discussions on genetic mutation gave way to an equally passionate romance.After dating for years, Charles eventually revealed the existence of mutants & that he was one himself. Becoming open to the potential benefits of mutants, she decided to help Charles in whatever he needed. While working towards her degree, she continued on helping Charles furthering his research.

### **1994 - 1995: Moira MacTaggert**

Upon receiving her PhD in Genetics, she & Charles were married then started their honeymoon by going on a worldwide tour. They saw many places but Moira eventually returned home to start her own research center while Charles went on one last trip to Haifa, Israel. While Charles was away, Moira discovered she was pregnant with their child but decided to keep the news a secret until Charles returned home, as she did not want him to end his humanitarian trip early.

When Charles did return & with a guest by the name of Erik Lehnsherr, he discussed the idea of turning his family home into a school focused on further educating the mutant youth. With Erik already on board, Moira quickly signed on to the idea & helped Charles build the school from the ground up. After the birth of their son Charles Xavier II, Moira put all her time into raising their son & helping Charles & Erik with making formalized plans for the school.
