miles was introduced to the maze when he was 15.  he was the third person
to be put in the box and sent up. when he first came up, there was a girl in
charge; her name was peyton. the second was a boy, his name was abel. they
had only been in the maze for two months, and the three of them began to
undergo creating a sort of system and order to the glade. 

it was about one year in the maze when bad things started to happen. miles,
out on a run with the others, encountered a griever during the day, a rare 
but not-unheard of sight. a member of his group go stung, and they had to 
leave him behind. and not long after, he and abel were in the mapping room,
figuring things out, when peyton appeared in the door way, her veins blue
and the whites of her eyes red. uncertain of what had happened, the two 
attempted to help her when she tried attacking abel, only to be taken down by
miles and a few others. later that night, before the walls closed, they were 
forced to banish her, allowing the maze to take her into its grasp. the next
day, during a gathering, abel picked miles as his second in command.[/font][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/ul][/div]

history:

carter joined the members of the maze a few months before things went south.
as a new glader, he was still in the process of learning how things worked.
once he got the hang of things and had earned a spot in the glade, the keeper
of the runners offered him a spot in their ranks. honored, he joined them and
got into the pattern of things. it wasn't long after that a fellow runner was stung
and things began to drift into a downward spiral. no one really knew what to
do when this happened, so they left him behind. shortly after that the box began
to send up medicine to cure these stings. however, the process is painful and
people go through the changing. 

carter himself has been through the changing, after getting stung by a griever on
a run. he was dragged back to safety after a careless attempt to get a closer look
at a griever. the med jacks nursed him back to health. carter doesn't remember
much of what happened, but every now and then he will get glimpses of the wicked
logo and clouded figures in white lab coats who are the creators of the maze. despite
this traumatic experience, carter continues to do his duties as a runner. this time,
his tries to avoid grievers at all costs and help those who go through the changing.
