It’s funny I was given the chance to visit a world filled with magic and adventure and I chose to be absolutely the most boring thing I could find. I started out as a young CEO of a small company (When all you have on hand is 400K in personal wealth you know it’s a very small company. Personally I blame the insane tax rate in England).  Still it was the 90s and I had future knowledge so… It wasn’t going to be that hard to grow my little company.

So one of the first things I did because I had insane biologist skills was I cured most forms of cancer.  So when someone comes out of nowhere to do that...   things get kind of insane. I became this huge star CEO, My company started growing like crazy. I got knighted. I was not used to the limelight… that was new. Honestly being famous is a major pain in the ass. I did get to meet Xanatos, he was cool.


In addition to that I got attention from the Illuminati. Apparently they turned out to be my answer to why no one had done it before me. They weren’t exactly thrilled with me but decided it would be less of a pain in the ass to work with me than to crush me. I was “offered” a membership with the express implication saying no would be very bad.

Well I didn’t take this jump to be the bitch of some shadowy group but I kind of didn’t want to die either. I decided to just do whatever I wanted anyways but be more careful about it. The next thing I wanted to do was to make hyper nutrient food that didn’t taste like shit. I started with a few things that were easy to grow and could be sent around the world cheaply and everything went to shit.

Research started getting corrupted, my key employees started quitting to take other jobs. Accidents started happening and the press really started to hate me. It took some digging and a fair bit of bribery but I found out the problem… Fucking MONSANTO!

Apparently they considered tampering with the food supply their thing and I was stepping on their toes so they decided to crush me, time to wreck a bitch.

So I took all those planning perks for a reason. First thing I had to do was bribe or pay off some high ranking members of the Illuminati to stay neutral because the heads of the company were members and I was about to go to war. I started buying up as much stock making them think that I was prepping for a hostile takeover and ensuring they would buy up as much of their own stock as they could. I secretly started another corporation to start selling their stock short (Selling the stock even though I didn’t have it in expectation of buying it when it drops).

I let them think they had out done me by buying up all of their own stock… then my campaign of media sabotage/ bribery of just the right people/ and the release of a new Herbicide that was being sold at a slight loss and did a much better job than theirs. This all happened in a week and it dropped their stock prices by 80%. This was right after they had bought all of their free stock and I had secretly sold my shares to them through dummy corporations. This left me substantially richer and left them broke. I bought the shares I had sold short for pennies on the dollar. They went into bankruptcy and I bought up whatever assets of theirs that I wanted. This also served as a lesson to anyone else who wanted to fuck with me. Don’t fuck with a Jumper.

I then went about my original plan of improving the quality of food. Not only did I make a ton of money but I helped a lot with starvation in the underdeveloped world.

Things were going well. I had made enough money for now and improved the world so I started my research into the occult. Specifically trying to find merlin… I figured hey magics a thing why not try and learn it.

While I met several of the third race (and somehow managed not to get screwed over by them) and I acquired a few actual magical artifacts when I met Merlin it turned out to be a disappointment.

He seemed to have known I was looking for him. However he explained I had no talent for magic and furthermore even if I did I had no need of it at this time. I had proven I was more than capable with just science and intellect. I explained what I was to which he told me he was already aware and one day I would wield magics of other worlds. However today was not that day. I told him Arthur was looking for him. To which he informed me he already knew…

All in all I guess you can’t have everything. I built a busty Catgirl android maid to comfort me, I call her Neko-chan. Anyways I never met any Gargoyles I am sure they were out there. I even caught part of Demona’s broadcast by accident (Heh not the first Jumper to get stoned in their first jump I’m sure) but I was mainly in England so I was across the pond with the plot happened.
