The author of Winnie the Pooh and the stories of Thousand Acre Wood, A. A. Milne is the father of Christopher Robin. His publicists rarely mention the more intriguing elements of his past. Milne was born in Egypt in the days of the Pharoahs and abducted by the Bootians during a raid on the Martian Pyramids of Timeline One. Milne was trained as an adept of Bootia and spent many of his early years studying mystical writings, spellcraft and nanotechnology on Crimac, Tesselon and Earth. During the later years of the Roman Empire, he moved to Briton and became an advisor to King Arthur; during this period, he was known as Mirlyne. At the urging of the Bootians, he created a task force of fighting golems to retrieve the Grail, an ancient device of great power. These golems, known as the Knights of Pooh, were defeated by the Muppets Templar, the event which entangled the Muppets and Winnie the Punk throughout subsequent timelines. At the end of King Arthur's reign, Mirlyne found it politic to change his name to Milne and to move to London. Milne requires a new body every few centuries due to wear and tear; his most reincarnation was born in 1882.
