Martin Nathaniel MacIntosh..........................Frontiersman/Super Duper Dad

His Father was a personal friend of Benjamin Franklin and taught him to be self reliant, fair minded, resilient and able to live off the land while respecting it. He is hunter but only in the reverence of the tradition passed on from father to son in order to provide not only sustenance but warmth for coverings. Honor and respect. He would never hunt for sport or exploitation. A true patriot, conservationalist and eager inquisitor of all things science in the land.

By the time he was thirteen he had learned Latin, French, Italian, German, Spanish and English in more than a rudimentary fashion. Mathematics and Science - especially Biology, Physics, and Chemistry were especially concentrated on and upon his 17th birthday he set out to put into practice the equally intense knowledge and abilities schooled to him by his father - an expert trapper and frontiersman who came over from England with Ben Franklin, a man he knew and loved and inspired his love of questioning and solving and understanding for the pure adventure of it as much as the knowledge and experience gleened.

In a quest for his own experience he travelled on horseback to the hinterlands of St. Luois and followed the path taken by the the Lewis and Clark Expedition sent by Thomas Jefferson to explore the northwestern territories of the United States; led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark; that traveled from St. Louis to the mouth of the Columbia River from 1803 to 1806 (A North American river; rises in southwestern Canada and flows southward across Washington to form the border between Washington and Oregon before emptying into the Pacific; known for its salmon runs in the spring).

It was on this journey that Martin discovered many things about himself and the world. Rather than return, he set out to eastern Alaska and fell in love with the sheer grandeur and majesty of the landscape and Mother Earth. ONE DAY while exploring and camping in the shadow of a wall of ice and snow, a glaring and raging fiery ball of plasmatic ooze pierced through the atmosphere.

Amid an awe-inspiring array of dancing bands of light known as the Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, Martin watches as a meteorite bursts brilliantly into the side of the mountain blazing a cavernous hole deep into ancient ice. To his amazement the walls of newly formed cave were polished and seemed to glow with pastels or light radiating from the remainder of the space rock.

While investigating Martin discovers an object lodged in the ice beneath where the meterorite rests. It is shaped like an egg and he takes retrieves it and the meteor and decides to set up camp in the now warm and cozy cave. One day he awakens from a nap to find a smiling creature who spits his tongue out and kisses him on cheek as he giggles. Meet Swoosh Moosh Magoosh.
