By [[Iris Wildthyme]]'s recollection, the First Doctor's hair was "not even white yet", and even still "a bit of a bruiser", when he left Gallifrey and began his wanderings.

One account says that the First Doctor rescued Susan [[Chancellery Guard]]s shortly after her natural birth, along with her grandmother, [[Patience]], since only the [[Loom]]-born were allowed in Gallifrey. The Doctor told Patience he would take their grandchild "far from this world of [[vampire]]s and [[valeyard]]s".

In an account presented by {{Ainley}}, the Doctor existed during a period of civil unrest on Gallifrey, when many students of the [[Time Lord Academy]], led by the Master, revolted against the corrupt [[Lord President]] [[Pundat the Third]], and attempted to convince the Doctor to take the position as President, but he decided not to interfere with the current constitution. When Pundat died of stress soon after the revolt, his chosen successor was [[Chancellor]] [[Slann]]. The students had found the last of Lord Rassilon's descendants, [[Susan Foreman|Lady Larn]], a seven-year-old child adopted by [[Councillor]] [[Brolin]], and decided on a second coup. However, their attempt to convince the Doctor to participate in another coup was overheard and reported to Slann, and the students were "brutally put down" by the Citadel guards, though the Doctor was too highly respected to be terminated, so it was decided to wipe his memory. Bloody reprisals against the students followed, and the Doctor decided to leave Gallifrey in a TARDIS. As it happened, Lady Larn was hiding in the same TARDIS that the Doctor stole, and affectionately called him "grandfather".
