Background
Born in Oklahoma, Jack Wilson Jr. did not share the same passion as his father, preferring motorcycles over digging in the dirt for broken pottery. He spent his free time reading magazines about motorcycles or reading books about motorcycles or watching shows and movies about motorcycles. His father's busy schedule meant that they rarely spent time together (which exacerbated the rift). However, they were able to bond on the firing range with the family heirloom, Jack's aim getting better with every visit. Jack Wilson Jr. graduated from High School with flying colors. Jack Wilson Sr. was so proud that he gave him a motorcycle as present. Jack thanked his father before taking it for a ride. He spent hours working on it, putting his knowledge of motorcycles to use. He saw it as the first part of a dream come true.
He spent years on the road, riding from town to town, sleeping in motels. He would occasionally receive letters from his father, always about the expeditions he was on, the artifacts he found, or both. Some of them were stories of success. Others were failures or simply getting canned due to lack of funding. He didn't dwell on them for longer than it took to read them. Motorcycles were his strong suite, not ancient history. Jack outright stopped reading them when he received one from his father that said that Jack Wilson Sr. had signed on with Henry Coswall. He had heard that Coswall was a crackpot who was bleeding his own accounts dry trying to find some lost world because he couldn't get anyone to fund his failed efforts, so he thought that it made no sense that his father would risk his career and reputation joining some harebrained adventure. He continued spending his life on the road until he was told that his father was missing and presumed dead. He began spending more time at biker bars than on his own bike, trying to escape from the guilt of not speaking to his father one last time one bottle at a time.
Jack Wilson Jr. received an unexpected invite from someone named Lucas Bryne. He had never met the man before, but the mention of the expedition got his attention. Jack thought for a moment and headed to meet the man who had sent him the letter. He arrived, introduced himself to Bryne, and shook his hand before asking him how he was going to help him find out what happened to his father. Jack Wilson was shocked when he heard that they were going to South America and argued that if the authorities couldn't find them, there was little chance they were going to get the job done. He was told that such a drastic measure might be the only way that they would be able to reunite with their lost loved ones or retrieve their remains. Jack Wilson Jr. agreed to join on the condition that he gets to confront Henry Coswall if the leader of the failed expedition is still alive. He considered asking how their group was going to get their weapons into South America, but he quickly realized that Lucas had probably already figured that out. He bought what he could afford before meeting up with the others.
