David Jones was an English-born Sage that lived during the mid-20th century. In the 1970s and 80s, a few scattered reports of a man resembling a Sage surfaced. He was said to be "otherwordly", "extraterrestrial", and "possessed by multiple personalities" though these reports have proved inconclusive. His status is unknown.

Trivia

• The possible identity of the sage is English singer David Bowie, whose real name is David Robert Jones. He was born in 1947, his popularity reached its height in the 70's and 80's and is known for his extravagant personalities and presence. He has also made many songs which reference space and the extraterrestrial. Finally, and perhaps most striking is the fact that Bowie also has heterochromia iridium, or the difference in the color of the irises, a known trait common in some sages.
• In an archived conversation from 30 May 2014 between Melanie Lemay and Àlvaro Gramática, it is mentioned by Lemay that Jones was a singer. The combination of his occupation, nationality and the timeframe would suggest this is a reference to David "Davy" Jones, a key member of the band "The Monkees".
