Forum:What happens to Jensen after Deus Ex:HR?

If you look at the transistion between the first game and IWar, the devs wanted essentially to try and make all of the endings canonical, although the Helios ending is arguably the "most" canoical; theoretically though Human Rev only has one ending, the one after the credits (the 4 choice endings are sort of irrelevant to the universe since we know augmentation research continues, with the help of Megan Reed, to whatever degree). Considering Adam's significance to pretty much everything that's happening, it's highly likely that there's "more to his story". However, because of his total absence from Deus Ex or IWar, Adam would be at the most a minor character in the universe at the time of those games, if even still alive (and not in captivity).

Or you could just assume that Adam chose the "screw everyone" option and destroyed Panchaea, dying in the process; it actually makes a lot more sense within the DX universe, again considering that there's no mention of him (or any of the other characters found at Panchaea) in the first Deus Ex.

It is perhaps worth noting that many of Adam's exploits have him indirectly working against people like Joseph Manderley and Morgan Everett; they would undoubtedly be fully aware of his involvement and his potential to be dangerous to them. Keep in mind that Adam at no point is a member of an organization that is part of a larger shadow conspiracy, he's simply a security chief for a research firm; to someone like Everett, Jensen is possibly more useful dead than alive, his DNA being the basis for their technology.
