## Backstory

Jimmy (James) Walker was born as James Clement Walker Jr. in a small town in West Virginia, he grew up there then moved out of state for work once he became an adult. At this time he still went by "James", as his father went by "Jimmy", and he did not have a good relationship with his father. At age 23, on a chilly spring day, Jimmy got a call from his cousin letting him know his father was in hospice care, his liver was failing, the alcohol finally caught up to him. This shocked Jimmy, he knew his father would someday pass because of his alcoholism, but not this quickly. Where Jimmy didn't have a good relationship with his father he didn't leave for the hospital right away, after all the last time he spoke to him was 2 years prior, when his dad called his sister drunk and cursed at her over the phone at 3 am. Jimmy didn't know what to do. He finally that evening made up his mind and went to the hospital, he believed despite his addiction his father really did love him and his sister and didn't want him to die not knowing his children loved him. His dad would always call him when he was a child and tell him how proud of him he was, he always said " You're my boy"

He was too late, he was just a few feet from the door when a nurse stopped him, asking him if anyone had told him anything. Jimmy said no, and the nurse told him his father had passed away just a few minutes ago. Jimmy never forgave himself for that, if only he hadn't hesitated, if only he hadn't sat there overthinking it, he could have been there, he could have told his father goodbye, he could have told him he forgave him, could have told him that he loved him.

After this Jimmy fell into a depression, he stopped taking care of himself, he started to drink, even though he knew the bottle had taken his father from him. He still went to his job and pretended things were fine, however at home, it was a different story, his drinking, anger, and regret drove a wedge between him and his wife-to-be, Danielle, he became verbally hostile to her, he became so mean and angry. She tried to put up with it for a while, but she could only take so much. She left him, she left a note on the table telling him goodbye. Jimmy found the note Danielle left, he was heartbroken, he became disgusted with himself, who he let himself become.

Jimmy realized he needed to change. He stopped drinking, he hated that bottle, it took not only his father from him but now, the love of his life. He sold his house and his belongings, be bought a train ticket to somewhere he'd never been, and left. He had to leave, he couldn't stay there, there was too much pain there, he had to escape what he had become, and the mess he'd made. He had to be free.

He traveled far and wide, all across the united states, oftentimes exchanging work for a place to sleep, and a hot meal. He did many things, he did office work, living in efficiency apartments, working as a miner, living in a camp house. He would sometimes sleep on benches in parks or in tents in little tent communities. He became more or less, a hobo, a drifter. The place he remembers most fondly is going back to his home state in Appalachia, West Virginia. There was a small commune in the mountains, he heard about it from another drifter. The people there called themselves "Mountaineers." They taught him how to work in a community, and how to live off the land. They taught him their beliefs, to be truly free, and to care for the ones around them. They taught him a saying 'Montani semper liberi" meaning "Mountaineers are always free."

Jimmy stayed with this community for about 5 years, then he started traveling again, hoping to help others the way they had helped him. One day he hopped in a boxcar of a train that was departing, he fell asleep and when he awoke he was in OREGON, THE LAND OF DEAD. He was confused about how he ended up there, outside of a train he hadn't ridden. He met Tom, Tom being kind helped Jimmy find a place to put his house, and explained to him some about the Realms Beyond.
