Martin Frobisher was one of the first explorers to search for the Northwest Passage to the Orient. Raised in London by his uncle, Frobisher left early for a sea-farer's life and became a well-known navigator and explorer. Convinced of the existence of a Northwest Passage, he secured substantial support for three voyages in search of it.
Frobisher's first voyage was in 1576. With two ships, the Michael and the Gabriel he sailed around Baffin Island and discovered an inlet (now known as Frobisher Bay) that he believed to be the Northwest Passage. Landing near Resolution Island, he named the land "Queen Elizabeth's Forelande." In an encounter with the local Inuit, five sailors were killed. He then landed at "North Forelande", the eastern tip of Hall Island, and claimed the land in the name of the Queen. From there he set sail along the waterway which he believed was the route to the Orient and to which he gave the name "Frobisher's Streights." Returning to England with an Inuit captive, he also brought back ore that was mistakenly identified as gold.
Ensuing difficulties, including the collapse of financial backing ended Frobisher's quest for the Northwest Passage. Although he did not reach the Orient or find "riches" in the new land, his voyages did fuel much of Europe's future interest in Arctic exploration. Following his Arctic journeys, Frobisher had various commands, including that of vice-admiral in Sir Francis Drake's 1585-86 expedition to the West Indies.
Or so they thought. In reality, his exposure to Chaos allowed him to infiltrate several adventurers ships and sink them, finally joining the AAA.
