Who is Bobby J? Though there are many stories about Bobby J, no-one really knows enough about him to answer this question for sure. Some say that he was born on a mid-summer's night 25 years ago while others claim that he is much younger than that. Even his name is a bit of a mystery. One story says that he was born Robert James, the son of a prominent British Archeologist, and though little is known of his mother (she might have been French or possibly American- even Russian by one account), it is believed that she lives on the island of Corsica (or possibly Sardinia).
As a boy, Bobby J did not go to regular school, but was schooled regularly by his father as he travelled from country to country in search of ancient relics. It's been said that it was on these travels, while in the company of his father (who, more than once, has been referred to as nothing more than a common tomb raider), that Bobby J developed his love of all things old and dusty. It is likewise on these trips that Bobby J learned to speak more than a dozen languages- well, at least three fluently and a few words and phrases in the others.
Yes, little is really known about Bobby J. This much, however, is certain. He is a young man (alright, if I'm to be completely accurate here, then I should probably mention that by one account, ONE account only, mind you, Bobby J is a woman), anyway as I was saying, he is a young man haunted by the past. Perhaps because his father was an archaeologist or because his father was so often accused of 'stealing' relics, Bobby J has dedicated his life to stopping those who would sack and pillage ancient ruins and lands. But this is a job for more than one man, and so Bobby J has created the Bobby J Adventure Academy, where young people are trained to decipher codes, unravel mysteries and solve crimes. It is from here, the Bobby J Adventure Academy, that young people are sent on missions around the world to save or retrieve ancient objects from the past and capture the thieves who stole them.
