It turns out the Time Lords didn’t always have the ability to regenerate. One of their earliest space explorers went out into the universe and found a child lying underneath some great big hole into another dimension. She brought the child home, raised her, but then something happened and the child died, only to undergo the first-ever regeneration on Gallifrey.
This early Gallifreyan (or Shobogan, to use the correct name, which we first heard in the 1976 story “The Deadly Assassin”) decided she’d have that, and so experimented on the child for years, killing her, or him, over and over again, until she found a way to replicate the gift of regeneration for all Shobogans, who now took to calling themselves “Time Lords.”
That child, meanwhile, went on to work for the secret Time Lord organisation “The Division,” which sought to interfere in other-worldly affairs. Presumably, this is different from the Celestial Intervention Agency, a Time Lord organisation which seeks to secretly interfere in other-worldly affairs.
Eventually, for reasons we can guess at (the Ruth Doctor mentioned “Trying to quit her job” in “Fugitive of the Judoon”), she had her memory forcible wiped, and was regenerated back into childhood. That child, presumably, grew up to be the First Doctor we know and love, played by William Hartnell.
