Background :

A native of Iolcos, one of the primary cities of the planet of Boetia, Jason was set to take his father Aeson's place as its Demarch, but for the treachery of his half-brother Pelias.  Although Pelias spared Aeson, he sought to kill all other potential threats.  Jason was born that very day, and only his mother's quick thinking saved his life.  She set the women attending her to wailing, proclaiming the child still-born.

Jason was spirited away from the palace, and sent into the mountains where he was raised by a clan of mutants led by Chiron the Wise.  Pelias eventually found about him, and by now well secure in his power, had Jason ostracised, on trumped-up charges. 

He might have done better to send assassins, for Jason had grown into a talented and spirited young man.  His father Aeson managed, over two decades of house arrest, to spirit away a comfortable sum of money on behalf of his child.  As soon as Chiron released him, Jason set out to make a name for himself, and for that, he decided he needed a ship.  He fell in love with an old freighter, the Argo, and poured his fortune into purchasing, refurbishing and equipping it.

The Argo has been underway for a couple of years now and Jason, with a few successful missions under his belt and an obvious lack of fear for danger, has begun to acquire a modest reputation.  There will come a day when Pelias had best be looking over his shoulder...
