## Overview

### Pre-Zone experiences

James had a high GPA throughout the entire time he was in school, and joined west point academy during senior year of high school, taking 2 college courses at the same time as well as high school classes. He graduated west point with honors and gained his bachelor's degree in strategic intelligence and healthcare, gaining him the rank of First Lieutenant immediately. He was a very good soldier, dispatching enemies quickly and planning operations with people with multiple more times authority than him. He eventually ended up in SEAL Teams, and later, Delta units. Fox was one of the seals to first enter the war on terror, and was one of the 23 SEALS to raid Bin Laden's compound. He is a highly decorated officer, having a Expert Marksman badge (Irons & ACOG applicable), 4 Purple Hearts, Distinguished Service Cross, and a congressional medal of honor for saving, commanding, and almost dying for multiple soldiers in The Second Battle of Fallujah, among others.

### How he got here

He woke up in the zone, dragged in by a criminal gang testing artifacts on him, torturing him, etc. He escaped a few weeks later, killing one of them with the NR-40 scout's knife he still has. He grabbed the bandit's PM and chainmail coat and eventually found himself in rookie village. From there he started making a name for himself, helping countless people in both combat and medically.

He adopted a bombay cat whom he misses dearly, 2 years before he entered the zone, shortly after leaving the military. The cat's name was Loona and he still has a few pictures of her on his PDA.

He spent years training and operating in a hostile environment, but not one as hostile as the zone.
