Jason 6'2" and 280lbs, so he is huge and heavy with mostly (but not all) pudge. He wears his hair quite short but has grown out his thick red-brown beard and he will pull or scratch at the beard when he is thinking. On most days he would wear a tank top underneath whatever clean T-shirt he could find and blue jeans with a pair of glasses. When it gets cold he would wear a very heavy black leather motorcycle jacket even though he has no idea how to ride a motorcycle. Inside the jacket are always a lighter or three and a pack of cigarettes along with his glasses case with a pair of prescription sunglasses. He also wears a little dragon pendant on a thin steel chain around his neck and a tungsten and gold ring on his finger which he will use to tap of hard surfaces occasionally.

Jason also has several tattoos, two on his back around his shoulder blades and one on his shoulder. They are a star of chaos and a celtic shield knot inside of a circle of runes on his back and a bear claw also of made of a celtic knot. due to their location they are easily covered by a T-shirt so that he can still be "professional"

Jason Smith

Male

24

Forensic Science Student + Intern @ crime lab

Jason is intelligent, knowing tons of mostly useless information in various fields such as survival, science and technology. However he is a little socially awkward, not cripplingly so but would have a difficult time socializing with the group until he gets more comfortable with them. Jason is also a strange kind of altruist, he would have an extremely difficult time telling someone that they cant share food with them but at the same time would recommend abandoning someone who was very sick to save the group from infection.

Jason was born and raised in Colorado, where he lead a fairly simple life with his Mother Lauren, his dad Vincent and little sister Jessica. He went to school and did ok, but his education suffered from sever lack of interest. It wasn't that he wasn't smart he excelled when he bothered to apply himself it was just boring. He went through the routine for a long while, doing homework and fiddling around on the computer endlessly with video games or just poking around the internet. when he was still a kid, his family joined a theatrical group that practiced near a park by his house. it was all mock sword and staff fighting but it was fun. The family still has some weapons from their time there.

As he grew older and maneuvered through high school and became quite the nerd, reading Sci-fi and gaming quite heavily. He took a fascination with science classes and learned a great deal from them, But high school taught him very little compared to the next several years. after high school he went to school, in colorado, for and EMT - Basic certification (Emergency Medical Technician) but that fell though as the job market was more difficult to get into than he had imagined and before long the certification expired and he gave up on being an EMT but still remembered most of his training several years later. He coasted for a while, working at Wal-Mart as an automotive technician. he didn't do anything really fancy or extensive but he learned a few things about cars and a few tricks to get them running. During this time several friends we worked with where discussing survivalist scenarios such as political unrest or nuclear war etc. In the enjoyment of preparing he purchased himself several survivalist things that would likely not be in most apartments, such as a water purification device, a backpack with clothes, firestarting materials, a large survival knife, a basic surgical kit with suture supplies and a 12 ga. shotgun with about 60 buckshot and deer slug shells on a bandolier he can wear across his chest. After a few years of this he started going to school again for Forensic Science with goals of being a laboratory tech some day. he took the criminal justice classes and forensic classes with fervor and devoured information, even reading about serial killers and forensics in his spare time.

Nearing the end of the degree program he needed an internship to complete it and graduate. He had sever difficulty in finding one until he was sending applications out of state with his fingers crossed. He was accepted to a crime lab in Baltham & Bainbridge, with that he immediately dropped his life and moved up to a cheap apartment that was tricky to pay for between his car and the meager income from his internship but, it was manageable.
