Phillip Tapsell

Backstory
Phillip Tapsell was born and raised in Scotland on the First of January, 1420. His family was fortunate enough to afford Phillip an education in CF; he acquired a liking towards general mathematics and sciences such as zoology and astronomy. He left his home and family at the age of 10 to attend a boarding school for the rest of his intermediate and high school years. He excelled at his sciences and math and did well for the rest of his subjects before he finished his junior education. Furthermore, he was approved of the Ferdinand Schollarship: it earnt him a place is the university of Clementine to study cartography. It took Phillip 7 years to complete his doctorate, thus as time and his prestige prevailed, Empress Clementine VI herself requested his expertise to discover new trade routes and possibly new virgin lands.

To the surprise of the entire Clementine kingdom, Phillip Tapsell indeed revealed the way to what is an entire, unexplored continent. Empress Clementine VI named this newly discovered continent, the New World. For Phillip Tapsell’s services to the greatness of the crown and its people, Empress Clementine VI profusely spoiled Phillip with a generous 1.5 percent tax revenue generated by the on-going conquest of the New World; for a century of her New World’s life after discovery.

With his newfound, growing fortune, Phillip Tapsell thought, “With this f'rtune, i believeth yond to most wondrous s'rve the triumphant discov'ry of this landeth i has't revealed, is to forsooth invest t into the v'ry people yond may inhabit and thriveth from h'r”*: thus Phillip Tapsell with the insurance of Empress Clementine VI, had officially opened the first University in New World, on march 21st 1469 (Clementine VI’s date of birth), suitably named New World University.

* With this fortune, i believe that to best serve the triumphant discovery of this land I have revealed, is to indeed invest it into the very people that may inhabit and thrive from her.

As expected, Phillip Tapsell takes the headmaster position of the University throughout its birth. In today’s world of 1472, only three years later, he continues to live his legacy as the first headmaster and founder of the university.
