"I know you. A man with fair skin, red eyes, and black hair. He dresses in all black, covered in the Nightingale Armor, and a cape. You're Jason Gaebolg, the Black Knight."
— A dark guild master in his final moments to Jason.
Formerly a Dark Mage in Grimoire Heart, Jason became a cold and unfeeling man due to neglect and seeing the horrible actions of Dark Guilds. Jason then went on a quest to eliminate any and all Dark Guilds, through any means necessary. This quest led him to cofounding Black Void, a guild consisting of only former Dark Mages. After a while he encountered Alexander Doomkaiser and Luke Gandor (who later became his own students), forming the Quasars. After Black Void was disbanded and all the members arrested, Jason reformed the Quasars using newmembers, and swore revenge on Aether Cade and Samarra Inari. Although his plan to kill Aether on his island failed, and the Quasars were once again disbanded. He only managed to escape due to the timely intervention of Hyperion Lucifer. He is also the biological son of Cronus Saturnalia, the leader of Othrys. After the war between the Mage guild Dragon Gunfire and city-state Othrys, Jason was welcomed to Dragon Gunfire, and started the Spartoi Program as its program manager, a position he holds to this day.
Jason is a fair skinned, muscular, young man. He has red eyes, and well kept short black hair. He often had an emotionless expression before the year he spent with the renewed Black Void guild. When activating the curse power of Mephiles his eyes turn completely black.
Jason often wore his Nightingale Armor, rarely taking it off. This armor is a full body suit completely covering his body up to his neck, and is entirely black. Under his armor he wears a beige long-sleeved shirt, and beige pants. To comfortably walk in his armor he wears thick black socks, as the armor's boots often function as his shoes. He wears a black cape with red on the inside as well, and a feather like protrusion appears on the front of his left shoulder.
Personality[]
Jason was once more emotional showing a great amount of love for his mentor, Hades, but great emotional pain when he was picked on by the Seven Kin of Purgatory, although he held a soft spot for Ultear, someone he considered a dear friend.
Due to his escapades as a member of Grimoire Heart, his soul was damaged to become cold and unfeeling. This cold calculating manner of his caused him to be ruthless in battle, not stopping until he defeats or kills his foe, as shown by his complete destruction of a dark guild killing everyone in it after they refused to disband. He's unwavering in his goals, even to achieve minor victories. He has reportedly threatened clients that wouldn't pay him, and scared all of his subordinates into submission in Black Void so that they wouldn't disobey him. Despite his cold demeanor, he also possesses an air of arrogance, never taking his opponents seriously at first, and only going full power against those his standard power won't work against. More often than not, he'll attempt to go an entire battle without even moving from the spot he begins the battle in, something he has successfully done multiple times.
After the disbandment of Black Void, Jason became obsessed with vengeance on Aether Cade and Samarra Inari, willing to do anything, and pay anyone to kill them. After he joined Othrys he finally began to feel more compassion. He sympathized with Fragor, as he had been suffering under Othrys, and was incredibly angry when he confronted the Six Titans of War and the Cardinals about this fact. He even shot Darius Xerxes in the chest with his Black Bullet when he tried to calm him. Nowadays, as the program manager of the Spartoi, Jason still has trouble being nice to people, but is very kind to those he sees as friends, such as his subordinates in the Spartoi and Ultear.
History[]
As a baby, Jason was found on the Grimoire Heart airship, being dropped off by an apparition (later discovered to be Hyperion Lucifer). Due to the incredible amount of Magic power he was born with, Hades decided to raise him as his own and teach him Magic. Over the years, Jason trained alongside the Seven Kin of Purgatory in the usage of Magic. During this time he learned many Magics, opting to learn Magics similar to his master in hoMage to him. He also self taught himself the powerful spell Katsu. At the age of 12 Jason became a high-ranking member of Grimoire Heart, but the art of killing others began to take its toll on his mental state, creating his current personality. He soon left the Dark Guild.
Jason, along with Black Void's guild master, appealed to the Magic Council in order to create a new legal guild using former convicts. They reasoned that this would assist in the rehabilitation of said criminals, and allow them to reenter society. Although he managed to persuade them, the Magic Council kept their eyes on the new guild. Despite technically being a legal guild, Black Void took under the counter deals and took part in several illegal jobs. Jason later encountered Luke Gandor and Alexander Doomkaiser, and formed the Quasars with them, the former of which, Jason needed to defeat in one on one combat.
Darkness Magic: Jason was taught Darkness Magic by his master, Hades, as a child, wishing to be more like him. In combat, this is Jason's most prominently used ability. Unlike Hades' Magic, Jason's is black in coloration, as opposed to purple, making it even more malefic and powerful. As an obvious master of this art, Jason has a wide variety of techniques and miscellaneous skills at his disposal. He can coat portions of, or his whole body, in Darkness Magic in order to increase the power of his melee strikes, similarly to Natsu Dragneel with his Fire Dragon Slayer Magic. Jason's manipulation of darkness is also fine enough that he is capable of creating a variety of weapons to fight with. Due to tutelage from Bluenote Stinger, Jason also incorporates elements of Gravity Magic into his Darkness. He describes Darkness as gravity, possessing a density that allows him to crush or pierce almost anything with his might, including Adamantine, Black Steel, and even denser Magical materials. This even allows Jason to manipulate gravity to some extant, nullifying the effects of Gravity Magic, or any ability that attempts to mimic it, when used against him. For example, being capable of negating the abilities of gravity wells and black holes. He is still unable to directly influence gravity upon his opponent without casting a spell, such as Black Hole. Through training against Matthew Drakon's Holy Elemental and Fire Magic, Jason's Darkness is also immune to the purifying effects of White and Holy Magics, as well as the overall light produced by such arts. It can't absorb light, but light will not eradicate his Darkness. It also possesses a high tolerance to heat and flames, similarly being unable to be burned away. Against both elements, despite not being able to absorb them (at least, not without his spell Eternal Darkness) Jason is still capable of smothering them in Darkness in order to eradicate such techniques. This allows Jason's darkness to even resist the heat and temperature of flash bangs, but not any sound waves that they produce. Jason also spent some time in Othrys, training with Pluto Morior in the art of Darkness Magic. After completing his time as Pluto's student, Jason's skill in Darkness Magic ascended to even greater heights, increasing his skill in the use of his Darkness to levels equal to the King of the Underworld.
The Black Bullet's speed and precision
Black Bullet: Jason makes a finger gun at his opponent and focuses his Magical energy in his fingers, specifically the index and middle fingers. He then fires a black bullet of darkness Magic from them. The bullets are easily capable of tearing through flesh and armor alike. With enough focus it can pierce the likes of Adamantine and Barrier Magic. Under normal circumstances, one shot is capable of killing a man. This spell managed to pierce through Darius Xerxes' Magically reflective armor, piercing his chest and causing him to immediately lose consciousness. The bullet itself actually almost killed the him. Occasionally, when firing the bullet without chanting the spell's name, he often says "bang" or "pow". Jason has developed his Black Bullet to a degree that it can match the speed of Hyperion Lucifer's Light Beams, and even overpower them. Most people can't even process the incredible speed of the spell. Jason can also utilize blunted variations of the standard bullets, dealing heavy damage without the intention of piercing the skin. These bullets aren't any slower than the standard Black Bullet, and can be incorporated into all of Jason's Black Bullet derivatives. This spell and its derivatives are notable for having never been able to be blocked by an opponent's physical body, regardless of how dense or strong they are, without Magical assistance. This spell is considered Jason's signature move.
Duel Wielding: Jason "duel wields" his finger guns, shooting many bullets of Darkness Magic, that greatly damage his foe. He fires the bolts incredibly fast, almost like a machine gun, and the bullets can even take up the entire area in front of him, no matter what space he's occupying. Each individual bullet has the same level of power as the normal Black Bullet, but can also be changed to be simply inflict blunt damage.
Explosive Round: This spell is notable for being superior in firepower to the standard Black Bullet, but inferior to the Grenade Launcher, seen as a sort of middle ground between the two. Jason briefly charges his Magical energy in his fingertips before firing a more powerful bullet of Darkness Magic. This bullet pierces through the skin, and upon doing so creates a small, but powerful explosion of darkness. This leaves the opponent dazed, if not heavily injured. Jason can fire several of these bullets at once, and can combine this technique with Duel Wielding. The spell will still detonate if it somehow still not able to pierce the skin.
Grenade Launcher: Jason charges Darkness Magic in his fingertips while making a finger gun. This creates a sphere of his Magic at the end of his fingertips. He then blasts his opponent with a large amount of Magical energy, exploding on contact, and dealing a great amount of damage. It's power is like being hit by 100 Black Bullets at the same time, possessing both immense explosive and piercing power. The explosion also travels exclusively outwards from the area of contact, so even from point-blank range, Jason can't be harmed by the casting of this spell. This spell was considered powerful enough to kill an injured Aether Cade. Jason can also fire two Grenade Launchers at once while utilizing both finger guns.
Eternal Darkness: This spell allows Jason to redirect an oncoming attack while simultaneously turning the spell into Darkness Magic. This spell can only work on fluid (gas or liquid) or energy-based attacks. The power of this spell is equivalent to, or greater than the power of the spell used against him. The reason it increases in strength is that the transformation of the spell into Darkness Magic infuses it with Jason's own Magic power, and increasing the overall amount of power inside the attack. This spell does not only need to be used on beam-based energy attacks, but it can also drain and convert the Magical energy from attacks through direct contact or generate a field to do the same thing with physical objects. When the enchantment or enhancement have been removed from the object, it then loses most of its power and, in some cases, velocity.
Dark Mend: A variation of Eternal Darkness which is performed in the exact same manner as the aforementioned spell. However, instead of Jason transforming fluidic-based spells into Darkness Magic to be redirected, Jason instead takes it into himself. The resulting absorption of the spell revitalizes Jason, giving him more Magical energy for himself. While this spell does increase Magic power levels, it does not heal any physical damage Jason has received. Also, if Jason were to use this spell when his Magic power is almost full, it will overload his Magic container and could severely injure him. It is also possible for a powerful enough spell to completely overwhelm Jason's Magic Origin, which can cause the same result as if he were possessed a full Magic container.
Borderline: Jason swipes his hand, creating a line of Darkness Magic separating himself from his opponents for a long enough time to perform a counterattack. Anyone caught on the spell's border will be tossed around during the spell's brief period of activation, and bruise and cut anyone trapped inside the spell itself. Whoever was struck will often find themselves far away from their starting position. Despite this spell's great power, it is still generally used as a separation or defensive technique.
Dark Star: Jason forms a sphere of Darkness Magic in front of his fist or open hand, and slams it into his opponent. This sphere is highly condensed, dealing high amounts of crushing damage that can easily shatter bones and dent steel. Jason can also detach or launch this spell from his hand, using it to keep his opponents pinned to the ground, and continuously crush their body. Alternatively, he can surround his fist in the sphere, making it an effective punching attack. It is considered Jason's densest Darkness Magic spell, and his most powerful directly physical spell. Only Jason is capable of lifting the sphere, as it is made from his own Magical energy, allowing him to telekinetically lift it. No one else is capable of resisting its power.
Push: Jason covers his hand in Darkness Magic and strikes his opponent with an open palm, generating a shockwave that pushes them back and does great damage. This spell can also be used at a range, producing the same effect. The brief amount of time it takes this spell to activate, and the great force behind it, makes it incredibly difficult for an opponent to resist. This spell has so much force behind it that it can even crack bones and shatter strong metals. It even has enough power to easily push away a being as large and as strong as a Giant.
Stygian Blade: Jason holds out his arm, creating a blade made from Darkness Magic from the back of his wrist. The blade is about the length of an actual sword, and is easily capable of cutting through materials as if it was a real one. Jason can even use this spell to cut through spells cast by his opponents and other swords. Jason can also freely extend and retract the length of his blade. Jason is also not limited in the usage of just one blade, being capable of utilizing one blade per wrist. When utilizing his Spartoi spell, Jason can utilize the tendrils created from this spell to make blades from any part on his body.
Dark Buffer: By surrounding his entire body in incredibly dense Darkness Magic, Jason is able to drastically enhance his physical capabilities. This includes defense, as attacks will have trouble making it through the armor, and offense, as his attacks will hold a monumentally high amount of weight behind them. The only downside is that this spell consistently drains his Magical energy while in use, making it unwise to have the full-body variation active for long. Jason can also cover portions of his body in this spell, sacrificing overall defense in favor of conserving Magic power.
Tenebrous Solid Fist: Using the power of his Dark Buffer, Jason collects it into one or both of his fists. He then delivers a strong, bone shattering punch to his target. This spell can send anyone flying backwards in one hit. Not only can this spell shatter bones, but it can also break Adamantine and fall a Giant. If it can't break something, it can most certainly dent it.
Tenebrous Drop Kick: This spell is similar to the Tenebrous Solid Fist, but is a kick instead of a punch. More often than not, Jason will begin the casting of this spell in midair, propelling himself towards his opponent with a stream of darkness, before striking his target with the immense weight behind this technique. While using the same level of enhancement as the Tenebrous Solid Fist, this spell is even stronger due to the more powerful muscles in his legs.
4500mm Black Cannon being fired
4500mm Black Cannon: Jason holds out his hand, his fingers making a somewhat clawed shape, and collects a large amount of Darkness Magic in it. He then fires a large beam of his Magical energy at his opponent, large enough to encompass an entire person's body with plenty of room to spare. Upon contact with his target, it can either generate a powerful explosion, or remain blunt and continuously crush whatever Jason fires this spell at. One blast from this spell is capable of defeating an S-Class level Mage and destroying a large section of an airship. It is even more impressive considering that this is the weakest variation of this series of spells. Jason can also fire two of these cannons at once, one from each hand. This spell, and all its derivatives, have the most killing potential out of all of Jason's Darkness Magic spells, and are considered one of his strongest series of spells.
9000mm Black Cannon: A variation of the 4500mm Black Cannon where Jason uses both his hands. He cups both his hands together and gathers Darkness Magic inside them. He then fires a large amount of Darkness Magic at his opponent. This move can also be performed one-handed when Jason's Dark Eyes are active. This spell is twice as powerful, and twice as large as the 4500mm Black Cannon, possessing the same effects but with a much greater impact. It is capable of matching Luke Gandor's Crimson Lotus: Dragon King's Charged Shell, which is the latter's most powerful spell.
18000mm Black Cannon: A variation of the 4500mm Black Cannon where Jason uses both hands and has his Dark Transformation active. This spell is preformed like the 9000mm Black Cannon; he collects a large amount of Darkness Magic in his cupped hands and fires a large stream of it at his opponent. Although, this move takes longer to perform than the 9000mm Black Cannon. Jason has described it as his most powerful weapon. It is twice as powerful and twice as large as the 9000mm Black Cannon, which means it's also four times as strong and as large as the 4500mm Black Cannon, while possessing the same effects, but with a much greater impact. A weaker variation of this spell can also be used when Jason is using only his Dark Eyes.
Black Hole: Quasar: This spell was created by combining certain aspects of Gravity Magic with Darkness Magic, using them in the purest possible combination. As the name suggests, this spell is essentially a black hole, but with it being more controllable than said stellar phenomena. This spell involves Jason creating a miniature black hole in between his hands, or with a single hand, which then serves to bring his targets in towards him. Any matter this spell absorbs, including air and other gases, is immediately added to this spell's power, gradually increasing the black hole's size and gravitational effect over time. This process completely breaks down the material into pure energy. The only way for this spell to be stopped is for it to either be overwhelmed by a strong enough surge of power, causing it to destabilize and disperse on its own, or it must be dispersed by Jason himself. If his black hole is not dispersed, then Jason will follow up with the Quasar. After absorbing enough materials at a fast enough rate, Jason can then fire a blast of pure energy from the black hole. The blast is incredibly hot and fast, burning anyone and anything that attempts to block it, and exceeding the speed of Light Magic. In order to get to this state, however, it will take at least a few seconds of absorbing materials to gain a sufficient power supply, but this amount of time and the power of the spell is dependent on the size and power of whatever the spell absorbs. Originally, this spell took a massive amount of Magic power to utilize, but since decreasing the size of the black hole, it now is considerably easier and faster to cast, albeit at the substantial cost of power.
Supermassive Black Hole: Blazar: A variation of the Black Hole that is much larger in terms of both power and size. Rather than creating a small one between his hands, it becomes gigantic in proportions, almost 100 times larger than the standard variation. The larger size increases the power of this spell's gravitational field, allowing it to more easily absorb objects as well as drastically enhancing its limit on what it can absorb before destabilizing. However, its larger size makes it much more difficult to control. Jason is thus, unable to manipulate the transformed energy into the power of a spell other than the follow up attack. Other than this, the technique is fundamentally the same. As with the Black Hole, Jason follows up the Supermassive Black Hole with a strong energy attack. In this case, the Blazar. This spell is essentially a variation of the Quasar, but utilizes the power of the Supermassive Black Hole as opposed to the standard Black Hole. This techinique is also 100 times stronger than the standard Quasar. However, the charging period is also much longer than with the standard Quasar, requiring at least 30 seconds of absorbing materials before Jason can fire. During this time, opponent's can attempt to attack him, but he is generally protected by the Supermassive Black Hole's gravitational field. This is Jason's most powerful spell, but it also takes up a massive amount of Magical energy to cast.
Amaterasu: By creating Magic formulas in the air, the targeted area is engulfed by a massive spherical shockwave. Jason's skill with this Magic doesn't require him to always use hand seals, but he does require them for more powerful formulas. Jason's casting speed with his hand signs is also unprecedented, being capable of creating powerful seals with little effort, and so fast that his hands appear as a blur. Individuals have compared his skill in this Magic to Hades himself. Drake Doomkaiser has stated that his skill in this art is unmatched. The damage of this Magic increases with the formula's number: the higher the number is, the higher the amount of damage the spell deals. With one casual Amaterasu blast, Jason was able to destroy an entire dark guild hall and kill every member inside it, except for the critically injured guild master. The resulting explosions cause immense damage to the target, and is also known to cause numbness and completely drain the stamina of Mages that attempt to defend against it. Although the effect of the spell is dependent on the power of the Mage, as Laxus Dreyar was still capable of continuing the fight for some time after he was struck by Hades' Amaterasu. Jason can also not be affected by the power of his own Amaterasu formulas. Jason has access to Amaterasu seals ranging from 1 to 100. Jason has the distinction of being able to layer his Amaterasu blasts, creating multiple shockwaves of increasing power and magnitude that consecutively strike his target, giving them no time to evade and breaking through their defenses before they're struck by the strongest attack.
Formula 0: This formula does not follow the normal numbering of Amaterasu formulas, as in, the higher the number the more powerful the seal. This makes sense considering the fact that this spell does not have the same abilities as an average Amaterasu formula. Jason creates a giant seal above his target. It then strikes his opponent with a beam of purple light. This beam does not exactly harm the target, instead draining them of their Magical energy, and siphoning it off to Jason. It will continue until Jason breaks off the casting, the target leaves the area of effect, or if the target is completely drained of Magical energy.
Formula 5: This is the simplest formula of Jason's Amaterasu spells. The only required hand movement is an upward movement made with his index and middle fingers on one hand. This causes two Magic seals to suddenly appear, one above and one below his target. They then detonate, trapping the target in a seal of purple light that continuously bombards them. This spell is mostly designed to induce pain and drain Magical energy and stamina, with the spell itself not providing that much physical trauma.
Formula 15: Another of Jason's more basic Amaterasu seals, that he only needs to activate by collecting Magical energy on his fingers. The energy then forms two rotating Amaterasu seals that Jason then throws at his target. When they make contact with their target they deal a fair amount of explosive damage, sending whoever is struck by this spell flying backwards. This spell lacks the same power as other Amaterasu formulas, but in contrast is much faster to cast, and requires much less energy.
Formula 28
Formula 28: Jason makes a back and forth motion with his fingers, creating three seals in front of him. Jason then holds out his hand in front of him, causing the seals to shrink around his hand, and generate a massive cylindrical shockwave or explosion. This spell has a massive area of effect, but lacks the ability to properly destroy some barriers. This makes the spell effective to use on multiple opponents at once, but not against those that use certain variations of Barrier Magic. These barriers generally must be incredibly powerful, such as the Maximum Defense Seal.
Formula 64
Formula 64: Jason first makes several rapid pointing motions with his index and middle fingers, creating Magical seals that surround his target, two float above them, and six float around their sides. He then sets off a powerful explosion, generating a spherical shockwave inside the area of effect, and, when strong enough, exiting the area in its entirety and damaging people near enough to the explosion. This spell serves to heavily drain a target's physical stamina. If the target can defend against it, protecting themselves will often heavily drain their Magical reserves, almost to the point of zero. Usually, the affected individual will still be able to fight normally, but over time, they will begin to feel the effects of this spell as their body becomes numb and they become unable to even stand. It is essentially a drastically enhanced version of Formula 5.
Formula 100
Formula 100: In terms of sheer power, this is Jason's strongest individual Amaterasu Formula. Jason performs a hand pattern at an incredibly fast pace. After performing the pattern, he creates three Amaterasu Magic seals on each side of the target and two more seals above and below them. This then generates a massive spherical explosion that can take up the entire arena of the Domus Flau. This spell is so incredibly powerful that it can even overwhelm the defenses generated from Maximum Defense Seals, and defeat Mages on the level of guild masters. It's even more dangerous considering the fact that the main target is in the epicenter of the blast. It can also affect individuals not in the epicenter, as long as they are still in this spell's blast radius.
Cascading Seal: Formula 250: This spell is actually a combination of four different Amaterasu Formulas, striking his opponent one after the other. All seals appear at once, completely surrounding the individual that Jason is targeting. First, Jason casts Formula 25. It strikes his target, testing their defenses, and seeing if they'll be able to counterattack. If his opponent has a powerful enough defense, this portion of the technique will normally be harmless against the target. Then, Jason casts Formula 50. Being twice as powerful as the first Formula, this spell generally will overwhelm most defenses, but it still will not normally deal damage unless the target's defense was too weak in order to protect against all of the blast, or is otherwise unprepared. Next is Formula 75, which will deal a debilitating amount of damage to the target, possessing even more power than Formula 50, with 50 percent more power. Finally, is Formula 100, designed to finish off the target. This final detonation has the same effects and level of power as the normal Formula 100. Each layer of seals strikes one after the other, dealing immense damage to the target. The bombardment of energy to his target is often so powerful, that it can completely overwhelm his opponent in one blast, rendering them unconscious, and possibly even kill them. Jason normally reserves this technique for the strongest of Mages, as it is an even stronger seal combination than his standard Formula 100.
Jason's Chain Magic in use
Chain Magic: This Magic allows Jason to shoot long chains from his hands, complete with grappling hooks, spikes, or heavy balls at the ends, depending on the situation. They can be used in combat by launching the end attachment through enemies. After they have been caught, enemies can also be slammed into objects, however, these chains can be broken. The chains are capable of piercing through any defenses, Magical or otherwise, as the chains can become intangible. Although the chains cannot pierce through those who can otherwise become intangible themselves. Jason can create several chains at once, using them restrain multiple targets, or restraining a large target, such as a Giant or Wyvern. The chains are capable of automatically extending and shrinking according to Jason's will, giving him chains that effectively have infinite length, while Jason is simultaneously able to change their trajectory with minimal effort or movement in order to intercept attacks or strike enemies. He uses this Magic alongside Luke Gandor for special combination attacks, as Luke is also a skilled user of Chain Magic. Jason can also use this Magic in conjunction with his Darkness or Barrier Magic to increase the power of the chains, and give them extra effects. The chains are also capable of turning solid, allowing Jason to pierce or wrap around his target without the normal harmless piercing of this spell. When like this, the chains are much denser, capable of cleanly cutting through a building, and blocking Adamantine sword swings. Through spinning the chains, Jason can even block Magical attacks, and diffuse or reflect spells that are energy-based.
Chain Wrap: Jason binds his opponent with chains, restricting movement as well as allowing him to thrash them about. Unless the chains binding his opponent are broken, then the victim will still be bound. These chains more so act as cuffs or ropes than anything else, and can be detached from Jason's hands or seals in order to stay attached to whatever he caught. Jason can even hang an opponent with a chain wrapped around their neck, and attaching the chain to one of his barriers in midair. These chains have incredible binding power, being similar to steel in flexibility, but more similar to denser metals in terms of durability and strength.
Explosive Chain: Jason wraps his chains around his opponent, restricting their movement. The chains then explode, dealing great damage to the target. Jason can wrap multiple people in one chain, and even tie them together before detonation. The damage is equivalent to that of one of Jason's Amaterasu:Formula 15 seals, which has an explosive yield powerful enough to send back an S-Class Mage, if not outright knock them out.
Chain Shock: Jason wraps his target with his chains. He then shocks them with a great deal of Darkness Magic. This spell can be used to shock normal individuals, or even weaker Mages, into unconsciousness with just a brief jolt, or it can continuously damage a target until they pass out or die. The latter technique is normally used on stronger opponents. Anyone who makes contact with the individual while they are being shocked will be shocked in turn as well as long as they maintain contact. Jason can make this chain incredibly long, allowing him to ensnare multiple opponents. He can also pierce through his opponents as the chains normally can and shock them that way instead.
Hard Chain: Jason covers his Chain in his Barrier Magic. However, the barrier he uses trades defensive power in exchange for allowing his chains to bend as normally. When using this spell, his chains are solid, which makes up for the weaker barrier. This chain is basic in nature, as its only purpose is to be used to strike opposition or block incoming attacks. It is his densest chain in terms of raw strength.
Gravity Chain: This spell can be used by either wrapping or piercing his opponent with the chain. Utilizing the power of his Darkness Magic's gravity effects, Jason can then increase the gravity of whatever this chain is touching. This prevents opposition from moving, unless they are incredibly strong, but even then, they have vastly decreased mobility. The chain can also simply increase the gravity of another object, increasing the damage something as small as a stone can do when used to strike his target. However, while the gravity of the object in question may be increased, Jason is not affected by that whatsoever. Using this technique can also be used to simply increase the durability of the chain.
Spider Web: Jason weaves together several chains, sending them outwards from his body. Like his other chains, Jason can manipulate these chains to an incredible degree, this one in particular is an effective defensive spell, slowing large blunt objects if not outright stopping them, as well as wrapping around any target he has. This spell's size can be increased or decreased depending on necessity, even being capable of capturing someone as large as a Giant. Upon capture, Jason can also use this spell in tandem with other Chain Magic spells that Jason employs.
Network: A rather unique application of Chain Magic, Jason creates a large quantity of chains, simply laying on the ground. However, if anyone gets within ten feet above the chains, the chains around this area violently explode, which will heavily damage his target. Upon exploding, none of the other chains in the minefield are affected, the ones that did generate an explosion are still intact, and Jason will not be harmed by his own explosions. The only portion of this spell that takes any Magical energy from him is the creation of the chains, and the explosions they generate. In total, however, this does not add up to much. Jason can also forgo the usage of explosions in favor of using the power of his other Chain Magic spells.
Barrier Magic: Jason also employs Barrier Magic. This Magic allows him to erect nearly indestructible barriers, capable of blocking almost any attack, although the barriers can be broken with sufficient blunt force or piercing power. The barrier will still be powerful enough to slow down and weaken the attacks that manage to pierce it. The barriers are nearly invisible and can be used both offensively and defensively. Jason can move the barriers at will, erecting them fair distances away from his person, and moving ones he's already created into the path of new attacks. Jason is not limited to only one barrier at a time. They function by dispersing energy across their surface, and as such, they work best against spells based around spread damage and can reflect light, giving him an extra defense against the Lunar Eclipse Eyes and the different variations of Light Magic. The barriers are so durable that they can withstand blows from a Giant. Jason can also create barriers beneath his feet in order for him to fly around like he's on a hover board, or seemingly walk on air. As Jason's Magical energy is attuned to his barriers, he can also attach himself to them. He is even capable of standing upside down on them. Anyone else will slide or fall off, even allies, although people can get a proper footing on a right side up barrier. Jason generally makes sheet-like barriers, but is not limited to this. He can create barriers directly on his person or objects, acting as a second skin. This makes Jason able to take hit after hit, without his opponent even knowing they're doing nothing to harm him. When using his Dark Eyes, or any higher transformation, he's capable of employing his barriers without even moving, making it appear as though he's telekinetically halting, repelling, or dispersing attacks.
Barrier: The most basic spell of Barrier Magic. Jason simply holds out his hand, when not using his Dark Eyes, creating a barrier in front of him to deflect or disperse attacks. As a byproduct, Jason can form the barrier into various shapes, including spheres, rectangles, and prisms. He can also create more barriers or extend existing ones at will. This gives him a nearly impregnable defense.
Full-Metal Jacket: Jason manipulates his barriers to create an armor of barriers over his body. These barriers possess the same level of power and capabilities as his standard barriers, but Jason has more control over them due to their proximity to his body. As the barriers are a few inches away from his body, it can appear as though something is touching his skin or clothes, although it isn't at a closer look. This spell's abilities don't just increase defense, but offense as well. His blows possess even more physical power, and give him the ability to even reflect certain Magic attacks by hitting them with physical force, most notably hitting them with a backhand. However, while Jason is using this spell, none of his other techniques work properly, as his Magic power is sealed within the barriers, meaning that in order to effectively cast a spell, he needs to use enough Magic power to bust through his barriers, making it more efficient to remove his barrier to cast the spell. Jason can still remove certain parts of his armor in order to attack from a specific part of his body, but maintaining the barriers around his body still utilizes Magic power, making it inefficient to keep this spell active for long periods of time.
Katsu: A speed of light Magic used to heavily damage one's opponent. This is primarily used as a finisher, as Jason needs the victim to be intimidated by him before he can use this spell. It's so powerful that a casual burst is capable of destroying entire guilds. It is also incredibly fast. So fast that it can't be seen by the naked eye. Even if his opponent feels fear for just a fraction of a second, it is more than enough time for Jason to activate Katsu to assault them. Although this spell has been implied by Hades to be capable of incinerating people, Jason is only capable of dealing debilitating burn damage, charring the skin and possibly killing his opposition. Jason is proficient enough in the usage of this Magic that he was able to teach it to another individual, Alexander Doomkaiser, and have him master it as well. As punishment, Jason once used a weaker version to almost kill the members of Team Hayley, the second strongest team in Black Void, intentionally holding back power so that they would not be outright killed by the blast. It also overwhelmed Zancrow during a friendly sparring session as children.
Unison Raid: An extremely powerful ability that allows two Mages to unite two kinds of Magic, similar in nature, together, thereby creating an even stronger attack. Although a seemingly difficult ability to master, Jason is easily capable of doing a Unison Raid, seemingly, whenever he wants to. Although, it is evident that whenever he activates one, he is fighting with someone close to him, or at least someone he respects. He is capable of performing Unison Raids with any member of the Spartoi, William Mercury, and Matthew Drakon. The fact that his Unison Raids are made from two individuals' Magic power also decreases strain on the casters when used.
Neutron Star: A combination of Matthew Drakon's Holy Sphere and Jason's Dark Star. Jason creates the sphere of concentrated Darkness Magic from his Dark Star in his hand. Matthew then surrounds it with the power from his Holy Sphere, causing it to glow a brilliant white. Jason then moves it forward from his hand, initially moving slowly. Matthew then uses his own energy to send it towards their target at blinding speeds. The spell will crush and diffuse any spell sent its way because of how dense it is. It'll then crush whoever or whatever it makes contact with before detonating it a spherical blast, also having the added effect of acting as flash bang, blinding opposition, should they manage to dodge. The explosion however does not burn. Instead, it creates an increased gravitational field, which continues to crush whoever is caught in this spell's large field of influence. This increased gravity is active for approximately 2 minutes before deactivating, allowing opposition to move without any problems.
Holy Barricade: A combination of Matthew Drakon's Holy Sphere and Jason's Barrier Magic. Unlike many Unison Raids, this is a defensive technique. Matthew creates a sphere using his Holy Elemental Magic in his cupped hands, which quickly expands in size. At the same time, Jason creates a Barrier sphere in his hands, which increases in size to match that of the Holy Sphere. The two spells then mix together, with the two Mages crossing their arms together as the spheres burst open and mix, creating an immensely powerful, white barrier that can block even the most powerful of attacks. This spell possesses the Holy qualities of Matthew's Holy Sphere, alongside the incredible defensive strength of Jason's Barrier Magic. The Barrier can actually absorb the power of whatever technique is utilized on it, increasing the spell's power the more it is attacked. And those too powerful to absorb, more often than not, it can still refract the spell, greatly lessening its effects.
Black Heaven's Flash Cannon: A combination of Jason's 9000mm Black Cannon, or any of its other derivatives, and Matthew Drakon's Purgatory Dragon's Heaven's Flash. Jason collects his Darkness Magic in both hands, as he normally does with his 9000mm Black Cannon, while Matthew does the same with his Holy Flames, but instead of using his usual stance or charging stance, he matches that of Jason. The two energies mix together as they're charged, and the two fire a large blast of their combined power at their target. It appears as a blast of Darkness Magic, with Matthew's Holy Flames surrounding the Darkness. This spell has the combined burning abilities of Matthew's Purgatory Dragon's Heaven's Flash, and the crushing power of Jason's Black Cannon. This spell is so powerful that it can overwhelm two Mages of equal caliber to this spell's creators almost effortlessly. The fact that it is made from two individuals' Magic power also decreases strain when being used.
Dark Transformation: Through rigorous training in cultivating his magic power, eventually his body became unable to contain his sheer strength. As such, he eventually transformed into a state of Ascension, creating a new form that he refers to as his Dark Transformation. In this form, his appearance changes drastically. His skin darkens to black and his hair flares upwards wildly. On his forehead emerges a thick, white circle, flanked by three thin, white-colored lines to its left and right, which diverge slightly before going down under his eyebrows to reach his eyes' top edges, and from their bottom go further down to his jawline, over his neck, and diagonally across his pectorals so as to reach his arms, then stretching across the front of both his arms, presumably connecting with the above-mentioned, normally dark-colored tattoo at least on his left arm. These markings all appear over his armor. This transformation increases his power exponentially. If one did not fear his normal power, they are almost certain to fear his power in this state. His strength is no less than double that of his normal state, and so overwhelming that people are often unable to resist his might. It is this ability that marks Jason as the strongest member of the Spartoi, and one of the strongest Mages of Dragon Gunfire. Through this transformation, and its weaker derivative, the Dark Eyes, Jason gains access to several powerful Darkness Magic spells, each one incorporating the overall effects of Jason's standard Darkness Magic, but are augmented in functionality and power to a much greater degree. Jason doesn't use this form very often, using it only when he finally takes an opponent seriously.
Dark Eyes activated
Dark Eyes: The precursor to Jason's full Dark Transformation. His eyes turn completely black, but will transform back to their normal color if Jason continues on to his full transformation. With this ability, Jason's Magic power increases a fair degree, but nowhere near the same level as the complete transformation. This skill also allows Jason to see Magic in colors, allowing him to locate different kinds of Magic, and distinguish the different variations of Magic just through sight. This includes Spatial Magic, allowing him to track one's Teleportation or tell where a portal ends. He can even use this ability to see the Curse power of an Etherious, but it appears muddled, and Jason is unable to differentiate the ability that his opponent uses. As an extra ability, Jason is also unaffected by Illusion-based Magics when activating this state, even canceling out the fear induced by the Lunar Eclipse Eyes. Despite its appearance, this technique is not an actual Eye Magic, therefore, Magics or spells that counteract Eyes Magics do not affect him. The abilities available in this form are also accessible in Jason's full Dark Transformation, although Jason's eyes will turn black again when utilizing eye specific abilities.
Helm of Darkness: Jason transforms his body into Darkness and moves around the battlefield. This makes his body intangible, and he can phase through anything, but in order to attack he must become solid again. Even when someone uses an attack that can touch his Darkness form, the malleability of his body still allows him to more easily avoid incoming attacks. He is even capable of changing the size of this form, even shrinking down, but he cannot decrease his weight. He can still increase it with the aid of his Darkness Magic's incredible density. Jason can turn specific portions, or all of his body into Darkness, allowing an attack to phase through his torso, but he can still grab or punch his target with either of his fists. Jason can only effectively manage this transformation when utilizing his Dark Eyes or Dark Transformation.
Night Watch: Jason can use this spell with either his Dark Eyes or Dark Transformation active. Jason locks onto his target's Magical signature with the Magic-seeing aspect of his eyes. He then fires two, black, optical blasts from them, capable of tracking his target. The beams move incredibly fast, even being capable of keeping up with, and chasing down, High Speed and Light Magic users. Sending off blasts or portions of one's Magical energy is unable to trick this spell, as it only chases down the largest source of power. The only way to avoid this spell is to discharge so much Magical energy that they will no longer have the highest amount inside their body, but this would bring an individual to very low fatigue levels. This spell is capable of boring through enchanted steel and even denser materials, such as Adamantine and Black Steel. It only dissipates after it hits its target, or is blocked by a sufficient enough force.
Spartoi: A Darkness Magic spell that Jason can only use this when using the full power of his Dark Transformation. Jason begins the execution of this spell by punching his fists into the ground, forcing his Darkness Magic to flow through the landscape. From the ground form soldiers, identical to Jason in body shape, but made completely out of his Darkness Magic, appear from the ground. Their bodies are not very durable, easily capable of being broken apart, but they also can regenerate their damaged bodies, allowing them to continue their assault regardless of the level of damage inflicted upon them. They completely bend to Jason's will, and will attack relentlessly until their mission has been completed. They are also capable of using any of Jason's Darkness Magic spells, save for the Black Hole: Qusar spells and the 9000mm Black Cannon or stronger. Despite the great effectiveness his army has, continuously using this spell drastically decreases the amount of Magic power that Jason has remaining. Fortunately, the amount of Magic used to create the clones is all completely dependent on the energy Jason already sent into the ground. While that energy is more finite, Jason does not use anymore energy creating or repairing the clones, allowing him to recover stamina as they fight for him. When Jason drops from his Dark Transformation, any clones he created with this Magic will disappear, as well as any residual energy he has left in the area.
Magical Aptitude: Jason’s mastery over several different Magics is due to his great knowledge in the inter workings of Magic. His training allowed him to study several different kinds of Magics, allowing him to learn how to recognize and counteract them after fighting an opponent for only a short time. His Dark Eyes assist greatly in the recognizing of Magical abilities. He will only have trouble against incredibly rare and unique Lost Magics, but even then, his training with Hades allowed him access to books detailing the strengths and weaknesses of several Lost Magics and Black Arts. Although he cannot use every Magic himself, he can still think of a way to combat it.
Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Despite his incredible Magical power, Jason greatly trained in hand-to-hand combat during his time with Grimoire Heart. He can easily fight on par with even the most powerful of martial artists, even without Magic. He was capable of temporarily matching Aether Cade in melee combat, a master hand-to-hand combatant in his own right, for some time before the guild master activated his Dragon Force. Jason also has extensive knowledge of the human body, knowing its weaknesses very well. By striking pressure points, he is capable of completely shutting down functions, and even completely shut down Magical abilities in his target either selectively or throughout the entire body. This skill is greatly supplemented by his Dark Eyes, which allows him to see the flow of Magic in one's body. Even without his Dark Eyes, he can still easily locate nerve clusters in order to paralyze foes, numb body parts, and prevent the usage of Magic power.
Expert Weapons Specialist: Jason can expertly wield the weapons he generates from his Darkness Magic. This includes, but is not limited to, swords, scythes, spears, and maces. He is also a master wielder of chains (as evidenced from his usage of Chain Magic), an expert marksman (as evidenced by his aim with his Black Bullet spell and all of it's derivatives), and a skilled swordsman (as evidenced by his usage of his Stygian Blade). Jason's weapons skills perfectly compliment his Magical capabilities. On top of this, if he were to pick up the weapon of one of his enemies, Jason is still capable of wielding it with great efficiency.
Immense Strength: Jason trained his body to nearly pure perfection in order to deal with opponents, without him needing to use immense Magic power to avoid drawing too much attention to himself. He's incredibly strong being able to easily lift boulders with one hand, even without Magic, and easily flail around fully-grown humans and Giants using the chains from his Chain Magic. He had enough strength to punch Alexander Doomkaiser into the ground with one attack, shattering the earth beneath him when he made contact. When using his Darkness Magic, his strength is even capable of matching, and surpassing, that of Julius Kaizar (the physically strongest man in the world), Victor Crassus' Monster Soul transformation (which is in about the same strength range as Julius), and Largo's Ascension state (which put him above the strength of Julius). Normally, one good punch from Jason can do more damage to his opponent than a barrage of punches from whoever is fighting him.
Immense Durability: Jason is capable of taking large amounts of damage, even more than his former master Hades. This is especially notable considering that he doesn't have the aid of the Grimoire Heart to give him an extended lifespan and Magic power. He can even easily take the shockwaves and explosions generated from his own Magic with little to no difficulty (although, he is generally unaffected by the damage of his own spells). When going to recruit Luke Gandor into Black Void, he withstood a multitude of attacks launched at him by the Dragon Slayer before finally launching his own counterattack. He was completely frozen by Victor Crassus' Snowflake Armor, and not only did he easily shatter the ice, he appeared completely unharmed and felt no discomfort from the experience. He managed to take a vast amount of punishment from both Sykushi and Kyshira, and a combined blast from those two, along with the Draconic Vanguard and still remain standing. It wasn't until after Odin struck him from behind that he was finally defeated. While battling Largo of the Legion Under the Black Sun (who was utilizing Ascension), Jason withstood the doll's initial onslaught, only showing a few bruises and panting before retaliating with his own power.
Immense Speed: Despite the fact that he prefers not to move while engaging his opponent in combat, Jason is still exceptionally fast. He was able to kill multiple Mages with his Black Bullet before they knew he was threat, and do the same to Darius Xerxes, albeit non-lethally, before he could finish his sentence. He was also fast enough to react to the oncoming assault of Alexander Doomkaiser, punching him into the ground before he could launch an attack. By the time of the Bellona Alliance War, Jason was fast enough to keep up with Hyperion Lucifer, the Fastest Mage of Othrys. Although his actual movement speed was slower than Hyperion's, his reaction time allowed him to prevent any major injury to himself. He also managed to keep up with Largo, who's physical strength in Ascension made him immensely quick and strong. This speed combined with the already immense gravity of his Magic allows him to inflict severe damage to his target with only a few blows. He's capable of punching an opponent in the face that's behind him so fast, that to the naked eye it appears as if Jason just turned around and his opponent flew backwards.
Immense Magic Power: Jason was already born with a vast amount of Magic power. This high amount of strength can be increased even more by his Nightingale Armor. Even against Matthew Drakon, when his magic Power was much less developed, he easily overwhelmed the Dragon Slayer in one-on-one combat. Despite building up a great level of fatigue during his fight against the Dragon Gunfire Mages, he still had enough Magic power to utilize the Quasar spell and remain standing afterwards, despite the technique even being overpowered and blasted by a powerful combination technique from Dragon Gunfire's S-Class Candidates. He is even strong enough to fight evenly with Aether Cade, although he was overwhelmed when the later activated his Dragon Force. By the time he had arrived at Othrys, before the Dragon Gunfire/Othrys War, Jason was already stronger than any individual member of the Six Titans of War. After training with Cronus Saturnalia, his Magic Power soured to even greater heights. Cronus even began to believe he could rival the Cardinals. He downed Alexander Doomkaiser in one strike, one of the former S-Class Mages of Black Void, and the third strongest Mage of said guild; and defeated Hyperion Lucifer, the strongest Mage of Othrys, during the Bellona Alliance War with assistance from Oscar Miles. His power since then has only continued to grow. He was even capable of defeating the Legion Under the Black Sun commander, Largo, the fourth most powerful of the Legion commanders, during the war the army had started, while the doll was utilizing his Ascension. During the X805 Grand Magic Games, he boasted that he was the strongest member of Dragon Gunfire's team. Out of all the Spartoi, the power of his base state is considered superior to all individual members. Vincent Alvaro believes him to be on par with the Giants (the generals of the covert operations, paramilitary organization Gigantomachy), and that he could perhaps be a match for Silicon. He's stronger than Matthew Drakon, who has gained similar praise, being able to surpass his power using his base and Dark Eyes, while Matthew was going all out with his Holy Flames active. His Magical aura is black, and as he taps into more and more of his power the aura surrounding him becomes larger and larger. His aura also gives off an intimidating feeling, causing those affected to feel fear, and giving Jason an opening to use Katsu. This fear can often be so intense that individuals can't even get near him. The weak of willed can possibly even die from the fear-induced stress when Jason activates his Dark Transformation.
Equipment[]
Nightingale Armor: This Magic armor is a one-of-a-kind black suit that increases the wearer’s Magic power. Even though Jason's power is already high, this suit increases it even more. The suit is lightweight and durable, being capable of taking several strong blows, while not decreasing his speed in the slightest. The armor also has its own regenerative factor. It has been damaged multiple times, but still repairs itself by taking in eternano from the surrounding area like a Mage would. This process can take time, but it will still repair itself eventually. This suit has withstood a barrage of fire-based attacks and any other blunt or serrated attack from Matthew Drakon and Victor Crassus during sparring sessions, as well being able to tank both blunt and piercing Eclipse Beams from the Doomkaiser Family without any issues. It has been compared to Black Steel in durability, even allowing Jason to block swords enhanced with Magic using simply his armor-plated body. Even when damaged, as long as Jason has some portion of the suit intact, Jason will receive a power increase. However, the increase is still proportional to the amount of the suit that's still intact.
Trivia[]
Jason was the first character created by Black Dwarf Star on the wiki.
