Archived:Jason Everhart

Personality
James is friendly and somewhat outgoing. He's not quick to trust but once he does you better not break it. He is usually relaxed but reckless in battle, often times being the first to jump into fray. These two combined make him a formidable foe, but a dangerous ally. He isn't easily angered but when he is it's a bad spur-of-the-moment anger, but since learning meditation, he is able to calm himself, but only after meditating. Jason doesn't like authority and will often times disregard orders. He likes to joke around and have lots of fun.



History
James Everhart was a magician in a traveling circus show when he met Hecate. They were together for the week that he was in Washington state. After James and the circus left Washington he had assumed he’d never see her again, but he was wrong. A few months later, while he was in California, he found a baby in a basket, with a note, next to his trailer door. The note only told him that Hecate could not take care of the child so she gave it to him. This upset James but the rest of the circus performers were excited about the baby and offered to help take care of it. (All the circus performers consider each other family.) James named his child Jason.

They all chipped in to help raise Jason, the acrobats did most of it though, aside from James himself. The acrobats began to teach Jason at the age of 6, how to balance and started balance beam acts with him. At 8 James began to teach him magic tricks. When James turned 10, he became interested in the culture and ethnicity. They were happy to oblige and taught him that they came from the shaolin monks of asia. He began to ask that they teach him their martial art and weaponry. It took a lot of convincing but eventually they said yes, and began to teach him. He learned how to use hook swords and the chines 9-ring broadsword. He also began performing at that age (10). After 4 years of learning magic and 6 years of learning acrobatics and 2 years of learning the ancient shaolin arts of combat, Jason became adept in all. As well, while he was 12, he found that he had a connection with the Lion Tamer’s lion. It would seem to listen to him, possibly even understand his words, but Jason could not understand it.

Things looked bright for young Jason, he was on his way to becoming a magic, fighting acrobat! But on his 13th birthday, Jason was attacked by a hellhound and chased away from the circus. They had been in Wyoming then, and Jason was forced to run away into the wilderness. There he met a satyr, who had seen him in a show and tracked him down to bring to CHB. With the satyr, Jason began traveling east. Just a few days after they began traveling, the hellhound tracked him down. The satyr gave Jason a celestial bronze sword so that he could kill it. The satyr coached Jason through it, telling him to jump to the side when the monster lunged for him, and while it was off balance Jason stabbed it.

It took Jason and the satyr almost a year to get to CHB since they couldn't travel by vehicle, and the satyr didn't have any golden drachmas to IM for help. They survived mostly on wild berries and other wild foods (The satyr knew which ones were safe to eat.) Once in a while Jason would be able to kill a small rodent or fish. (The satyr wasn't too pleased about that.) While they traveled the satyr began trying to help Jason discover his powers. He managed to learn most of them before making it to CHB.

They were lucky enough to only have one monster attack on the way, though it was on Jason's 14th birthday. It was a giant scorpion that attacked them at the base of the Appalachians Mountains. It tried to sneak up on them, but with Jason's innate ability to see in all directions, he saw it coming and dodged. The satyr advised him to try to attack it's under-belly to kill it. With that thought in mind Jason jumped and rolled underneath it and stabbed it. They were able to continue the rest of their journey in relative peace.
