Jason Jones: An Introduction

Jason Jones is, as of this writing, just past fourteen years old. He lives in Red Oak, Iowa, a tiny city with a mere six thousand inhabitants. Jason was born there, and he thinks it rather likely that he'll die there. He likes hockey, football, and martial arts - accordingly, he's rather good with his fists and feet. He's also trained himself to be a decent fighter with blunt weapons (big sticks), though he thinks he's much better than he is.

Jason does not have the heart of an academic. His grades range from 'decent' to 'poor' in every subject but Physical Education, and he doesn't really care. He thinks that he has bigger things to worry about. At present, those 'bigger things' are a minor obsession with a certain reality show
and an attempt to con a Nigerian scammer, but don't worry. Jason will have bigger problems soon enough.

For instance, at present, he's in a back alley in Quebec city, lost and alone, and shortly to be ambushed by three street punks.

And that's just to start.
