Jack-49 was one among many Jack Harper clones acting as drone repair technicians, known as "techs".
He was 2 weeks from the end of a 5-year tour on earth before leaving earth permanently to settle on Titan.
Brainwashed into thinking the human remnants were alien invaders known as "scavengers", he had been unwittingly helping to wipe out humanity.
A series of events where he visits locations from his memories lead to Jack-49 discovering the truth and ultimately saving the human race.
Biography[]
Early life[]
Jack-49 was most likely "born" in 2072 by the TET awakening one of many thousands of Jack Harper clones created in 2017.
As part of the protocol his memory was wiped on the false premise that it would prevent the "scavs" gaining intelligence if he was captured.
Death[]
Jack-49 was vaporized along with human resistance leader, Malcom Beech, when the TET was destroyed in an enormous thermonuclear explosion.
Legacy[]
After 49's death, Julia gave birth to their daughter and continued to be in grief over the loss of him.
Behind the Scenes[]
49 was portrayed by Tom Cruise in Oblivion.
