Sir Stephen Abbot (C. 1578-1632) was a knighted English colonalist, cartographer, navigator, as well as former military officer, responsible for charting the northern segment of the Appalachian Mountains as well as importantly contributing to the name Mt. Ebott. He was also responsible for suggesting Mt. Ebott's caverns as a place of exile for the monsters to the High Council of Seven Nations, a temporary convening group of the leaders of the Grand Alliance of Seven Armies which had pledged their armies against the monsters in the Great Human-Monster Race War.

Early life
Stephen Abbot was born in circa 1578 in a unknown coastal town in the Parts of Kesteven, Lincolnshire, in England. He grew up spending his free time by the sea, where he soon gained an affinity for exploring the beaches. In this periods of beach exploration, he would wander so far that his parents believed that he could someday "Walk the whole Great Britain shores (sic.)" His parents would later send him to London to enroll him in several courses concerning cartography, navigation, and among other subjects related to exploration concerns.

Adult life and knighthood
In 1599, when Abbot was 21 years old, he was granted permission by the English royalty to chart and explore the American continent. Abbot's knighthood was earned during his voyage to America, sinking five large convoys in total of ships containing monsters fleeing the Grand Alliance of Seven Armies as his voyage progressed. Due to humanity's silent war against monsters, his return to England in 1601 was marked with knighthood on his vessel by the Queen of England. He would later return to North America after a few weeks of relaxation and family meet-ups, sinking yet more convoys and this time bringing small battalions of Grand Alliance troops with him. Although the now-knighted Sir Stephen Abbot did not discover Massachusetts, he did discover several mountains in and around Massachusetts. The most famous of these discoveries was that of Mt. Ebott in 1618. The native tribe residing by the mountain, welcomed Abbot due to his charisma and relatively unbiased (Considering the time) nature toward the natives.

The name "Mt. Ebott" came as a result of a meeting occuring one day between Sir Stephen Abbot and the tribe's chief, who had asked him to repeat his name to his translator several times due to the accent Stephen Abbot had. The natives, which soon began to use the name after an honourary order by their cheif, would also show Abbot the caverns leading into Mt. Ebott, with Abbot later exploring by himself, dropping several maps and old texts in the process by accident. These texts would later be discovered by monster historian Gerson Boom, who believed the texts to be representative of what all humans thought of monsters.

Determining the fate of monsterkind
In September 8th, 1621, Sir Stephen Abbot was invited to a meeting of the Grand Alliance of Seven Armies' leaders in the newly-established Plymouth Colony, in what is known as the High Council of Seven Nations. Given the temporary priviledge of advising King James VI/I, he suggested to him that monsterkind should not be placed in a special reservation, but instead, be placed within the caves of Mt. Ebott. After some bickering between the leaders, Abbot directly suggested to the High Council that the monsters should be placed in reservations, "-So that the hidious beasts, affront to nature and hated by all, may never glympse the heav'n-ly light of day, but bide time in their et'nal prisons of damp dark and tormentuous rocks. (Sic)". Nearly all of the High Council and it's members agreed on this, with only the Swedish representatives of their king disagreeing. This suggestion by Abbot quite literally sealed the fate of monsterkind, as in a few weeks, various magic practitioners from the Grand Alliance's seven nations would come and evoke a mysterious magical spell, which was able to seal monsterkind underground - and prevent them from ever leaving.
