Background: Hermes has always been one to evolve and adapt. When the world forgot him, he invaded the world, trying his hand at a number of things from thievery to honest business to…a mix of both. He stayed true, in most ways, to who he was- A jack of trades. He was always changing, making a new life from himself repeatedly. Most recently he has taken on the persona of Jack Donovan, with a good old boy history…fabricated, but only the most talented would ever get an idea that it wasn’t real.
Jack Donovan’s history: Jack was born in rural Texas, near Greenville. His parents owned a ranch, but never made much money. He learned to ride horses, fix fences, and all other numerous ranching habits. But like all things, life is never so simple. As he grew older, Jack grew more reckless.
By 14 he was already a known face to the local authorities for criminal actions, breaking and entering on at least three occasions, minor thefts of farm equipment, and generally labeled a ‘hell raiser’. He’s parents, while always proud, considered sending him to boot camp one summer because of his reckless behavior, but backed out when he joined the track team.
When he got his license (at fifteen), he used to race a Ford truck down the old dirt roads. He raced friends, and he raced anything…until the tickets started pouring in. At 17 he was involved in a particularly ugly wreck that thankfully did not leave anyone injured, though it totaled both the truck and the car Jack hit. Jack was charged with reckless driving, and driving while intoxicated. The judge revoked his license for one year, and gave him 150 hours of community service. The judge promised the next time he came before the courts for anything he’d be serving three to five years minimum.
Graduating from High school when he was 18, Jack and his best friend (Morgan Evans, whom he’d grown up with) went out to a wild party. Jack, well known as a playboy all through high school, got the scare of his life that night. Jennie, a girl that Jack had an on going sexual relationship with, came up pregnant. Freaking out she ran to Jack, telling him she was going to have his baby.
Like any 18 year old boy, Jack flipped out. He and Jennie spent most of the night outdoors screaming at each other about what they should do. She wanted to keep it, Jack didn’t want to be a father. That night Jack was involved in a second major wreck. By sheer luck, the police ruled that it wasn’t Jack’s fault. But only because people lied for him, mostly Morgan.
Jack never told Morgan, though, what brought on the drinking and bad mood that night. Jack and Jennie never told anyone about the kid, even after they went to an abortion clinic. Jack and Jennie parted after that, writing for a while to each other before finally losing touch completely. She had been the closest thing to a girlfriend Jack had ever had, and she was the last.
That august, Jack started as a freshman at the University of Texas. There he was a member of the track team, on scholarship. Six weeks into the semester he rushed Sigma Nu. He went in as a Business major, and by his sophomore year he was putting his business skills to the test. In the Frat Jack arranged and ran an illegal casino. Luck was certainly on his side with running this thing, too. Amazingly he ran it for three years without ever getting caught, despite all the close calls.
Spring of 2001 Jack was offered a job in a D.C. based company called, Spytech Inc.. Having won several business school awards, graduating with honors and athletic awards, Jack accepted the job and left college with a bright future ahead of him. He had full intentions of continuing on to get his Masters degree, and start his own company. However, his schedule and success at Spytech did not give him enough time to accomplish that goal.
He still runs every day at five am, and is active in sports and recreational activities. He’s been promoted to a project manager, and has never quite mastered a dating life, but then many say he has no life. Recently though, Jack was fired from Spytech, and is under investigation for Corporate Fraud. This makes finding a new job particularly hard. And while his friends know he is fired, no one knows that the police are looking into his history.
