Holding himself in high regard, the **First Doctor** was prone to criticising those who he felt were naïve or primitive compared to his intellect. However, after he began taking on companions, he developed a compassion, warmth, and wit that made up for his egocentric nature, serving to act as a mentor and guardian figure in his final years. Originally a very difficult and curmudgeonly person, the First Doctor matured from an apparent selfishness and became more inviting. His happier, kinder characteristics were fostered when he began to acquire an entourage of companions to accompany him throughout the wonders of the fourth dimension and learned to be a caregiver with a sense of justice in a universe afflicted by evils.

Beginning after he fled his home world of Gallifrey, his travels through time and space were mostly random owing to faulty components in his TARDIS. Initially, he travelled only with his granddaughter Susan Foreman. They settled for a time on Earth in 1963, where Susan was a student at Coal Hill School. He was forced to abruptly depart from Earth with Susan's teachers, Ian Chesterton and Barbara Wright, kidnapping them from their own time after they went to investigate their unusual pupil. After much travel with Ian and Barbara, he bade Susan farewell to allow her to live a happier life with a man with whom she had fallen in love.

Following Susan's departure, the Doctor travelled for a short time with Ian and Barbara, before landing upon the planet Dido, where he invited a new travelling companion to join him, Vicki. She reminded him of Susan, and the Doctor saw her as a surrogate to fill her spot in his travels with Ian and Barbara. Later, during a confrontation with the Daleks, the Doctor used one of their time machines to return Ian and Barbara to their proper time - something he had been unable to manage with his TARDIS.

Soon after the departure of Ian and Barbara, the Doctor and Vicki had gained a new companion in Steven Taylor, with whom the Doctor had a relatively uneasy relationship. Vicki eventually left the Doctor's company as well, also after falling in love with a man she met in Ancient Troy. After a lengthy fight with the Daleks, Steven soon became bitter towards the Doctor, blaming him for the deaths of their travelling companions Katarina and Sara Kingdom, but eventually forgave him. They were then joined by Dodo Chaplet. Ultimately, Steven decided to stay to help a civilisation they had encountered, while Dodo was later injured in an adventure and decided to remain home in her own time, while the Doctor found himself joined by Ben Jackson and Polly Wright, to whom he was much more kind; he hoped to prevent them from leaving as Steven had.

The First Doctor met his end after his battle with the Cybermen in Antarctica caused a loss of strength to maintain his ancient body due to Mondas draining a large portion of his life force.

He would go back into the holding cell, and fell asleep. Ben and Polly would wake him up, and Ben would say that it's over. The Doctor would respond and correct Ben that "it's *far* from being all over". He'd yell that he had to return to the TARDIS immediatley, and Polly would help him to the stairs. Ben would give him a cloak, telling him not to catch his death of cold. The Doctor left the Cybership into the snow. After stumbling and becoming mixed-up in his directions in the blizzard, he became frustrated and refused to regenerate, and, in the snow, met the Fourteenth Doctor, which caused the First Doctor to witness the type of person he would soon become. As a result, his fear of the change was turned to reassurance for his future, causing him to accept his regeneration as the final stages commenced. It had been hours since he left Ben and Polly, but moments for them. Unable to hold off the regeneration energy anymore, he would note he is going "the long way round". As the TARDIS control panel malfunctioned, Ben and Polly reached the doors, but they were locked. The Doctor contemplated leaving them outside as he did not want them to see his regeneration. After unlocking the TARDIS doors for them, the Time Rotor continued to release steam as it malfunctioned. After taking off his cap, he climbed on top of it to try and repair it. As he tried to reach his arm into the Time Rotor, it blew up in his face, knocking him off of it and to the floor, concussing him as well as destroying his entire left arm. He died shortly thereafter. Polly and Ben arrive in time to watch The Doctor regenerate into his next incarnation.

Like every single Time Lord, the First Doctor was turned into a human with no memory of the TARDIS after death on the planet of his choice, that being Earth. He assumed the identity of William Haureyn, in the year 1966. Unfortunately, he died in 1975 due to cerebrovascular disease, but not before having a daughter, Heather Anne Haureyn, as well as four sons, William II, Alex, Adam, and Felix.
