20 Years Reunion Brainstorming
A suggestion was made in the original info post to provide a brainstorming post for everyone to rattle off ideas, plan futures, coordinate relationships and whatever else might be needed for the plot!
And thus, the brainstorming post has been birthed and lo, we present it to you for all the storming of the brains you might need to do! Have fun planning!

Re: Brainstorming!
Name: Nobody Owens
Age At The Reunion: 37
Backstory I've Worked Out So Far: After graduating, Bod would have immediately restarted his plan to see and do everything. He'd travel a lot but he'd do it sparsely, hitchhiking, camping out, taking advantage of people's kindness and living off a pretty decent sized savings account that he only touched when absolutely needed. He still keeps in touch with Silas though the contact is few and far between.
Eventually, he'd probably settle back down in England, close to the graveyard he grew up in. And once he settles, the Jacks take advantage and pounce, slithering out of hiding to try and, once again, kill him. They fail (again) but not before getting stabbed in the back and causing some nerve damage that leaves him with a limp. Bod returns to the US to try and recover and get himself back on track while plotting how to rid himself of the Jacks forever.
How He Could Fit Into Your Character's Backstory: He'd be great at correspondence before the Jacks so you'd have probably gotten a postcard from him while he was traveling. If you were in his part of England, he'd have even invited you over. After the Jacks, he probably would have dropped out of contact and disappeared until popping up at the reunion.
