Jarrad Foley

Jarrad Foley is a character in QIA.
== Biography ==
Jarrad Foley was a former member of the Echelon and a protégé of Pierre Tolbert ("Fugitive"). 
=== Pre-QIA ===
Jarrad was involved, for many years, in various wet work and special ops missions. ("Echelon")
=== Birth of the QIA ===
Jarrad was one of the founding members of the QIA, and worked closely with his friend Erik Draper. He was present when the Eye was turned on, and later identified Brent Hall's intruder as being Sarah Cunnington, though in that time frame she was only seventeen years old. Jarrad convinced Erik that consequently they should bury the information, as others in the Echelon might want to try and prevent it, which would lead to Paradox. ("Echelon")
=== Personal Life ===
Jarrad was involved romantically with Sophie King prior to this death. ("Echelon")
=== Murder ===
Jarrad was murdered by Brent Hall in the twelfth-storey stairwell of the Sapphire Tower in Aston, Birmingham; he was found with multiple stab wounds and was assumed to have died at around midnight on 10th December 2011 - however his death was actually caused by the NT-063 weapon. This was not considered an infraction, due either to it occurring in his own timeframe, or as a result of his being a Natural. Just before his murder, Sarah found him, using clues he had (at some point) sent her; his only word to her before he was killed was 'Velrathen'. ("Rupa", "Death"). His funeral was held in Kensal Green on 23rd December of that year ("Echelon").
=== Hall ===
In 2015, five years after his supposed murder, Foley told Brent Hall that he had seen Hall's death, and that he would be killed by Fran Grenouille. Foley seemed unsurprised when Hall mentioned that Foley should already be dead ("Hall").
=== Sarah ===
Sarah Cunnington went looking for him, in the belief that he could help her prove Brent Hall's guilt. Coincidentally (or not), Ethan Taylor and Jack Harringer were also both also looking for him, tasked to do so by Erik Draper. ("Sides", "Redemption")
In spite of living two years into her own future, and nobody knowing she is there, Sarah received a note from Foley, with the message: PARK LANE TOWER 23.11.02 ("Rupa"). Much later, she decoded this as being related to the night of his murder (Sapphire Tower, Park Lane, at 11:11:02pm), which led her to him just a second or two before his murder at the hands of Brent Hall and his NT-063 weapon; before he died he was able to say one word to her: 'Velrathen'.
=== Other Deaths ===
Despite his murder in 2011 in Birmingham, Jarrad was also seemingly killed by a Pariah on 2nd May 2017. ("Echelon")
According to Will Bradley, Jarrad has also died a third time, as supposedly witnessed by Jack Harringer. ("¥o¬ Cø~1")
=== Infractions ===
In September 2020, Lewis Cole confirmed to the London Field Team that he had been sent back in time, in an attempt to kill his own younger self, by Jarrad Foley. The team therefore also speculated that Jarrad had been responsible for a similar infraction involving Paul Northwood. ("Redemption")
After following leads concerning this, the team soon discovered that all records pertaining to Jarrad had been purged; it is speculated that someone within the Echelon may have been behind this. ("Ted")
== Status as a Natural ==
It is speculated that Foley may be a Natural ("Sides").

== Unanswered Questions ==
* Is he a Natural?
* How can he help Sarah?
* What was his relationship with Hall?
** Why did Hall want him dead by Miranda's hand?
* If he was killed in 2011, how could he have been killed a second time, in 2017?
* Why did he send both Paul Northwood and Lewis Cole back in time to create infractions, knowing that the QIA would stop them both?
