First Doctor

The First Doctor is the very first ever incarnation of The Doctor that is playable in LEGO Dimensions when you purchase the 71204 Level Pack.

Background
The First Doctor was, by his own statement, the "original" incarnation of The Doctor. Holding himself in high regard, he was prone to criticizing those whom he felt were naive or primitive compared to his intellect. However, he possessed compassion, warmth, and wit that made up for his egocentric nature, serving to act as a mentor and guardian figure in his elderly years. Originally a very difficult and curmudgeonly person, the First Doctor matured from an apparent selfishness and became more inviting. His happier, kinder characteristics 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.

He met up with his Second and Third self on two occasions and with his Fifth self on one occasion. He joined his other incarnations in the shows 50th Anniversary special "The Day of the Doctor" where he helped save his home planet during the special's climax.

Trivia

 * He was played by William Hartnell from 1963-1966, who reprised the role in 1973 for The Three Doctors in celebration of the show's 10th series. He was also played by Richard Hurndall in 1983 for the 20th Anniversary special The Five Doctors, as Hartnell had passed away in 1975.
 * Hartnell's ill health was what inspired the idea of regeneration. Rather than ending the show or casting an impersonator, they decided upon the idea of the Doctor "renewing" his physical form, allowing them to recast the role and portray the character in a different manner
