Brent Jakes

Scientific Prodigy

Brent Jakes was studying to become an accountant when he attended a lecture by Professor Brian Lyman that set him on a new course. Over the next few years in his free time, he discovered the The Unified Field Theory, Holy Grail of Physics. Unfortunately, his discovery threatened the careers and reputation of many in the scientific community, and they didn't just take it. Brent found himself discredited, unemployed, and on the street. But then he met a Silent Wanderer with a habit of showing up just when others needed him most.

Brent has an uncanny intuition when it comes to science allowing him to solve problems that still plague the professionals.
