    Mystery Man

    Jarod, as a child he is stolen in the dead of night by a shadowy organisation and held against his will for 30 years in a place called the centre.

    Jarod was taken because he is not an ordinary child, he has a rare ability to mimic anyone in any given situation.

    A valuable tool that the centre staff use to their own advantage.

    Jarod has been told he has been helping people with the simulations he does but one day the truth comes out. He has been used as a pawn and the simulations he has ran for many years have been used for dark purposes.

    Appalled Jarod escapes the centre with two things on his mind, the first to right wrongs that the centre have done, secondly to find his parents, but only knowing your first name makes this a difficult task especially, with agents from the centre after you intent on bringing you back.
