about Jon

Biography
Jon came into this world with no knowledge of what a computer is or what its main functions are. This quickly changed, due to Jon being raised locked in a windowless room in central England with only a BBC Micro and a copy of Citadel to entertain him. Soon growing tired of being unable to prevent the hero becoming a Werewolf Jon set about learning how to program himself so never again would he have to rely on 3rd parties telling him what his goals were. On your journeys around the internet you may have actually met him, but you would not know it, as he never keeps an SN for long forever changing and adapting to the modern zeitgeist. Jon says if he could be any fictional character it would be Will Riker as he loves the beard and the trombone - but isn't completely sure he is fictional.
