George III

George III was the King of the United Kingdom from 1760 to 1820.

Biography
In 1774, George  received the last mammoth in Europe as a gift from Catherine II of Russia. In December of that year it was to have been part of the Royal hunt. After the Second War in Heaven this mammoth was vital to the last surviving members of Faction Paradox and other interested parties. It was thought a relic which would act as a focal point around which history could be shaped. The ritual of the hunt itself was to determine who would control the future. The focus of the hunt, however shifted to the last of the Mayakai. (FP: Political Animals)


 * At this time there were still numerous contradictions following the Second War in Heaven and it is likely that at least some of these events may have changed. Like the war itself, it was possible for one in a thousand to remember what had occurred in a collapsed timeline.

Most people in later times regarded the story of the king receiving a mammoth as just part of a larger tradition of strange rumours that circulated about high society, particularly the more dubious members of the aristocracy. In 1782, during a night of drinking with the Eighth Doctor, Scarlette claimed that she had once ridden George III's mammoth. (EDA: The Adventuress of Henrietta Street)
