History
Very little is known about Jane Doe beyond that she is extradimesional in origin, has a boss named "Vicki" and is one of Earth Prime's foremost experts on the Omniverse. Jane is particularly adept at evading questions. When reluctantly "supering" Jane uses the code name "Genesis".

Jane first appeared at Claremont Academy shortly after Navigatrix arrived with the "Alterni-Teens". While at Claremont Jane associated most closely with Adrian Hooper and Tara Breen who appeared to have an pre-existing relationship with her. The similar colour of Jane's and Tara's fiery red hair has been remarked on by many. Jane is the taller of the two women by a significant measure. The two appear to be close enough in physicality and age to be siblings.

Jane's presence at Claremont infuriated Professor Summers who noted that not only could he not obtain more information on her background but observed that she was already "very well trained".

When Adrian and Tara left Claremont for AEGIS, Jane tagged along but did not join. Director Thorne and Captain Danvers found Jane to be a just as frustrating enigma as Professor Summers does. Director Thorne also remarked that Jane has one of the lowest collateral damage to power quotients recorded.

Approximately a year ago Jane parted company with AEGIS and obtained employment with ASTRO Labs where she works on extra-dimensional projects.

Jane frequently visits the Wicked Witch Cafe in the Ordway Observatory. She maintains friendly relations with Tommy Tonka and Jesse Crockett of "the Band". Jane has revealed that Eric Eastwood, former member of the Band, now works for Jane's boss in her old role. Exactly what this is has never been elaborated on.

History known to Readers
Readers of "Ark of Worlds" and "Next Gen" (cira 2002-2006) are familiar with Jane as originating on Earth-65126 along with Vicki and Chase (also of the Ark of Worlds). She was recruited to the Ark of Worlds after growing up in the Claremont Academy of that reality. Jane was one of the first agents of the Ark to "break protocol" and reveal her true non-native nature to inhabitants of a reality. Something Vicki has still not forgiven Jane for.

Jane demonstrated formidable reality warping powers from a young age  and takes great pains to avoid parties with similar powers. The closest she has come to explaining this is "you don't cross the streams".

Earth-65126 is approximately 35 years ahead of Earth Prime. Jane's world is more advanced than Earth Prime but is not "the future", rather it represnts "a future". In recent years Earth-65126 fell into a Terminus orbit that brings it dangerously close to the Doom Coil. Jane had to sever her reality anchor to her home reality and is currently anchored to Earth Prime. This means any continuity corrections on Earth Prime will affect Jane and she will be personally unaware of them.

In the "Gensis: Resurgence" series Jane's powers have started to demonstrate both wild flucations and spontaneous uncontrollability. [Editor: Read "Genesis" issues 1 - 6 for more information]

Notebook of Duncan Summers: Intake Day

By
Notebook of Duncan Summers: Intake Day Originally Published by Jason Cochrane on Mar 25, 2016 at 05:03 AM There was a timid knock at the door. Duncan Summers, Headmaster of the Claremont Academy spun from his perch by the window and fixed the intruder with a steely glare. The source of the knock, a young man dressed in the Academy Uniform of blue and gold fled in terror. "Mmmmmm...." growled the Headmaster who returned to his position of gazing out the window into the distance. "Headmaster," a vaguely feminine, vaguely robotic voice intoned, "must you terrorise the students?" There was a faint staccato as metal heels walked across the floor towards the Headmaster. The presence was acknowledged with another growl. "Navimatrix. What do you want?" "My," intoned the humanoid robot. "Aren't you in a foul mood today. I came to check on you." "No need. I'm fine." Duncan had not even turned away from th...

A New Light

By
The house was a small two brick affair on a faux Tudor Style. While many of its kind bore white plaster and dark support beams, this house was brick topped with slate. The walls were tall and moss covered. The windows bore braces dividing each into a collection of smaller squares. Around the house was the lush and rambling grounds of the Claremont Academy. Ancient native trees stood alongside aged specimens from England. The grounds rolled and twisted. Each curve and divot revealed a different feature of the grounds. The Japanese Zen Garden. The sports fields. The tennis yards. The Workshop. And among these was the Carriage House in faux Tudor style. The house had many names over the years: the Carriage House, the Gate House, the Servant's Quarters, the Groundskeeper's Lodge and many others. In recent years it had been given over various members of the academic staff of the Academy. The current occupants of the house had been in residence for little over a year. Their tenur...

Ordway Observatory: The Facility Layout and Surrounds

By
Ordway Observatory: The Facility Layout and Surrounds Originally Published by Jason Cochrane on Oct 12, 2016 at 07:12 AM The Ordway Observatory (OO) once stood as a lonely five story landmark but suburbia has grown around it. The OO finds itself on a crossroads with shops and local commerce on all bar the western side of the property. The OO is bordered by a small car park to the east and south and a set of shops to the north. Primary vehicle entry to the OO is by the eastern car park entrance (with easy access to the workshop). As the only local five story structure it is the tallest building in the neighbourhood. All the remains of the OO’s once generous grounds is a tree dappled park backing onto the west side of the Observatory. Wildey Park is popular with locals and visitors alike and provides a steady source of patronage for the Wicked Witch Café. Wildey Park features a basketball court which, by happy coincidence, can just accommodate an AEGIS VTOL Interceptor. While this ...
