Bio: John is a 35 year old man, who lives in the city of New Blark. As the system has brainwashed him, his life is quite uneventful and can mostly be summed up in two sentences - his father was a man named James, and his mother, Emma, gave birth to John some time in the middle of winter. However, his parents were seldom around, as most were, and the only teacher or friend John can ever recall having is the radio in the corner of his room (the radio, though, would only ever issue the weather and reiterate the importance of obedience).
Occupation: Factory worker
Appearance: He has blond hair and blue eyes. He is of considerably average build: lean, but his muscle is concentrated mostly in the arms (from years of working heavy machinery).
