Jessy James (King James I) (Jessy Raiix Chume James Hapesah), born xxxx, is the current King of the Hapes Consortium. He was crowned following the abdication of King Andrew in 4027 and has led the Consortium in to a new Golden Age. He enjoys an enormous popularity both within the Hapes Cluster and elsewhere and is largely considered responsible for the success of the Hapes Consortium's industrial and commercial projects in recent years. Under his rule the government has gone through a series of reforms, becoming more centralised with most major decisions being made by officials on Hapes Prime.
Prior to his ascension to the throne, James was a career officer in the Royal Hapan Navy. He took over as naval commander in 4014 following the death of Jacevel Canler and became Grand Admiral in 4020. For his work on expanding the Royal Hapan Armed Forces and securing the Hapes Cluster, he was titled Crown Prince in 4025.
