Background:
Little is known about the man who goes by the name "John Evans", but much is
rumored.  Whispers aver that he is smarter than Sailor Mercury, kinder than
Kasumi, more psychotic than Kodachi and less social than Squall.  He has been
heard to mention a continuing attempt at college education and an aspiration
to design computer games, and apparently in his spare time he does some sort
of writing.
