Ever make a mistake so bad, that it hurts every time you just think of it? Ever wish you could go back in time and fix everything so you didn't hurt the one who matters most? Yeah, me too.

Bio

Do not go gentle into that good night
By: Dylan Thomas


Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

@GloriousSunbuttyes. All dead. More tragic. Much Sad.
Jason looked over at the poor woman, she wasn't handling this well at all. He walked over to her, she must have been their chaperone or something for this trip. Now all of the kids she had to watch out for were gone. It had to hurt. He shook his head at the cruelty of fate and approached her. "Hey, I'm sorry we couldn't find any survivors. But at least you survived to be able to remember all of these kids. They'll live on in your mind" He said softly, hoping to help her out. He knew the feeling of pain and needing to cope, he had watched his best friend take her own life when they were younger. Jason knew pain, he only hoped he could help this stranger through her own pain.

With that in mind he sat by her, not directly next to her as he was still a stranger, but a distance at which she could reach him if she needed to, or wanted to reach out to have somebody else to help her through the pain. As he sat, the boy let his mind wonder. How the hell could something like this even happen? What was the logic behind all of it.
Jason nodded in response to the woman. He slung his rifle and moved to begin checking on all of the destroyed cabins. It wasn't good... he found bodies in most of them. Although at the same time, the boy noticed that things that used to be heavy to him were just a bit lighter. Nothing particularly special. So he noted it down as adrenaline powering him to do more.

Jason turned to look at the woman. " Have you found any survivors in the cabins yet? I've found none" He said softly as he looked at her. The arrival of a new person almost made him draw his rifle. The young man looked over this new arrival. "Don't stand around asking why she's freaking out. Get over here and help us look" He ordered.
@Shoryu

Actual snipers use slings, stands, their spotter, and different means to do so.

But yeah, kicking doors in

@aladdin_sane Yeah, that's where those who posted went
I'm thinking about adding inhuman Strength to Jason's list of mutations. It would explain how he can hold that heavy sniper all day without issue.

Also I'm not gonna lie it's because I want him to do things like kicking doors off hinges. Like maybe about the same strength level as Captain America. So yeah.

Anybody against that?
<Snipped quote by aladdin_sane>

Jumbo sized gun happy lunatic? sounds fun!

Also @Jasonhero, wasn't your dude at one of the buildings south of the northern entrance to yellowstone? There's like, 10-20 miles of road between there and roosevelt. not that I'm against him having potentially spent all that time somehow going in the wrong direction and leave him somehow within range there, hahah.


Well you said the Earth was put together all weird so I figured some things would have been jumbled around and moved closer to each other while others were moved far away.

In reality I'm justifying me messing up out of want for interaction with somebody but eh, screw it xD
Jason had been focusing on just putting one foot in front of the other as he tracked his way across the landscape. The boy had hoped to find somebody else alive or reach those odd pyramid mountains soon. Unfortunately all the signs pointed to the fact that he was not going to achieve either of those goals anytime soon. The mountains seemed to have not moved a centimeter since he set out, and so far all that he saw were various dead people. Wonderful.

At that moment a flare shot up into the sky very close by, disrupted the odd calm that had settled in around him. As the boy's head snapped over to watch the flare, he judged that the person who shot it couldn't have been more than 100 feet away. Although the thickness of the forest and the debris he was currently in blocked him from noticing them. So the boy turned and went towards the source of the flare.

What he found was a scene of a bunch of cabins, all destroyed and pieces of belongings laying all over the ground. He decided it would probably be best not to mention the body of a child he found speared on a branch on his way in. He also noticed a Woman who seemed close to his age, maybe a fee years older, standing in the middle of the clearing. If the boy was going to be honest he found her attractive to look at. However, he couldn't even think about a relationship or anything with girls right now. The pain from losing his girlfriend much too fresh in his mind. "Everything alright? I saw the flare so I came to check out. It's good to see somebody else survived" He called out to the girl.
@Shoryu Well, I mean it'll be pretty Obvious when his eyes turn red for thermal vision. Or when he starts turning invisible. Or Teleports.
Jason was thoroughly enjoying himself today, he was with his buddies from his Marksmanship team. They were going to visit Yellowstone as after wiping the floor with some local teams in a competition, and of course he had probably the most beautiful girl in the world holding onto him right now. Frankly it was a glorious day for the boy who was so used to tragedy and just getting the shit end of the stick. He wasn't going to let this chance get away from him. Not as long as he still had air in his lungs and the day was still burning daylight. Either way, the boy figured he should probably get out of spacing out like he was right now and back to the real world. The group was heading towards one of the visitor centers, in order to get a map so they didn't get lost and get eaten by bears. As if that would happen. While the group went inside, Jason and Kaitlyn stayed outside and took seats on a bench. The girl leaned in and kissed his cheek playfully. This of course brought a small smile to his lips. Nothing was going to ruin today!

The next few moments made him really regret that thought. Suddenly the ground began to shake violently, as if somebody had decided it would be fun to kick the entire continental plate. Then he noticed all the geysers going off. ' But this isn't possible. They always said Yellowstone would be dormant for a long time...' The boy thought to himself, then turned to grab Kaitlyn and pull her inside. At that moment however, the ground shook especially violently and the girl stumbled a few steps away from the boy. As she did that a Crack opened up and Magma flew from the ground, covering the girl as she screamed out in pain. There was nothing Jason could do as he watched half her body melt away in the molten rock. But alas, there was no time for the youth to mourn. He was shoved violently to the ground as it became felt like the world was suddenly on fire. He crawled towards the bench and grabbed the underside, holding on tightly. Then he took a deep breath and shut his eyes tightly. Being a Space Physics major, he understood what the sudden heat meant. Earth had suddenly lost her precious atmosphere. It was about to get very hot, and very hard to breath. All around him he could hear the buildings crumbling to dust as the gravity that once held them disappeared. People screamed for their lives. The ground still felt like it was moving with a mighty roar. Then... nothing. There was no gravity, no air, no sound. It was completely silent. That meant all the air was gone and the boy had mere seconds before his blood boiled and he exploded. This was it. Then suddenly a deafening roar covered him as air rushed back into his lungs. Sound returned but he still felt weightless. Jason clutched onto the bench for dear life. He also dared to open his eyes to notice that there was an odd green light. He screamed loudly as his body was suddenly alight with pain, it felt as if all his bones broke then re-built themselves. Shortly after that pain he felt a massive slam as he was thrown from the bench and onto the unmoving ground. Somehow, he hadn't blacked out. His entire body hurt but it was as if he were stronger... no, no stronger. Tougher.

He could focus on that later. First he had to ensure his own survival. Now... what had countless hours of plating Fallout taught him? Ah. Yes. Others would start looting, or rioting, or go crazy in general and start killing people. He needed weapons to survive. The boy shakily got to his feet and looked around. The managed body of Kaitlyn lay nearby. Her locket somehow unharmed. The boy went over and pulled the heart shaped locket from her dead body and put it on himself. He would remember Kaitlyn no matter what else happened. Then the boy went to the ruins of the visitor center, which was barely standing on one wall. He looked around and found a backpack which had somehow remained unbroken. He snagged it and headed towards the back wall with had a novelty Katana sword. What the hell a sword was doing in a novelty store at Yellowstone was beyond him. But he took the thing. He would sharpen it later. The boy knew it would most likely break if he ever used it, but it would look threatening to others. He lid it into the sheath and slid the sheath into his backpack. Nearby was the Park HQ. Where they would have guns. The building was in shambles, but the weapons safe remained unharmed. Apart from the door being thrown off. The boy walked over and took a M98B from the safe. Then he grabbed all the ammo they had for the rifle and tossed it in his bag... after loading the clip and sliding it into the rifle. Holding his new weapon, Jason turned to face the rest of the world.

What he saw was a broken world, some normal, but others looked like pieces that had been underground were now above ground. It looked as if a toddler had put a Jigsaw puzzle of the earth back together. Huge chunks of land were barely touching in some areas where one could cross, but then next to them were huge glowing Abyss'. Which the boy figured you would die really quickly if you fell into them. Off in the distance he saw some mountains that hadn't been there before. They looked mysteriously like Pyramids. With a sigh, the boy set off to satisfy his curious mind and head towards the huge pyramid mountains. Picking his way across the new landscape very carefully.

Bored College Graduate Student

Before the Cataclysm:
Jason had grown up as an only child his whole life, but that didn't exactly mean that the boy had it easy. He had never really been able to make friends due to the fact that he lived with his mother (his Dad had ran out on them) and his Mother's occupation was in the adult entertainment business. They never really had enough money for anything, mom was constantly working, and he was constantly bullied. This led to the boy finding an outlet in Martial Arts. It was great for him, because the owner of the local Dojo happened to also be Jason's Physics teacher, and was fond of the boy. This resulted in Jason getting to practice there for free. The boy caught on quickly to many kinds of Martial Arts; Tae-Kwon-Do, Krav Maga, and MMA.  The boy also learned the art of using a Katana Sword.

After many years training under his Sensei, Jason went competitive in Tae-Kwon-Do and scored Gold at his first Nationals Competition in Olympic Sparring. This caught the attention of many colleges, one of which offered him a Full-Ride Scholarship. The boy eagerly accepted and went off to college a year early. At the college, the boy joined the Marksmanship team on Campus while attending his studies. He was a natural at it and soon rose to be the best that the college had for Marksmanship and Martial Arts. He was fully enjoying his life at College.

It was the Marksmanship team that had the boy wind up at Yellowstone National Park on the faithful day. They had recently finished a Marksmanship competition nearby the park and decided to check it out. The last thing that Jason remembers before waking up, and stealing the property he currently has, was the sight of his newfound girlfriend Kaitlyn being covered in Magma that had suddenly exploded from the ground.

Items
Suffice to say, Jason has been busy stealing things that the dead no longer needed.

• A Katana Sword and Sheath stolen from a novelty Shop. He sharpened the blade.
• A locket that had somehow survived Kaitlyn's horrible demise that had a picture of them inside it.
•A Barrett M98B Bolt Action Sniper Rifle from a nearby gunstore, Jason figured looters would be a thing
•A Backpack with Ammo and stuff in it.
•His Clothes (reference picture)

Transformation
• Ability to turn invisible (will develop over time. More practice after he discovers it means longer times)
•Infrared Vision (eyes turn red during this.)
•Short-range Teleport. (Will develop later on in rp. Won't be discovered until after the other two are well worn in.)
•Tougher Body (his body changes to be able to survive harder impacts. Not an active ability. It just kind of happened. He can survive falls from three story buildings without major injury. He will have scratches and bruises but oh well)
