Personality: Captain Jason McKnight is the model soldier in the United's Special Forces division. He demonstrates nothing but dedication to his job and only opens up with a sense of humor to his squad mates, who he'd served many missions with.
Brief History: Jason McKnight was born in Denver Colorado to United Army General Daniel McKnight and a trauma surgeon named Audrey McKnight. Jason spent most of his early life with his mother and sister living underground at the NORAD complex after Denver was ordered to be nuked. While other children were kept as shielded from information on what was going on topside, Jason was kept abreast of the situation by his father. He viewed ignorance on the situation as a flaw...a weakness. At age 11 Jason was enrolled in the United's Youth Trooper Division and by the time he was age 17 he enlisted in the Army as a Ranger. He exceeded all expectations, and after a handful of hugely successful missions was invited to train under the Special Forces division.
One day during the return flight from an intel-gathering mission in the remnants of Denver, Jason's Osprey received a transmission from NORAD that the compounded had been overrun. General McKnight ordered them to turn around and head to Vegas, where they were to be relocated. He promised Jason they would all meet him there. Upon arrival in Vegas, Jason waited for his family's evacuation chopper, however received news that NORAD had been nuked from the inside and the only escaping helicopter crashed en route to Vegas. Jason suited up and joined the rescue squad to look for survivors.
Upon reaching the twisted wreckage of the Blackhawk helicopter, it was clear there were no survivors. Both of his parents' bodies were slumped together in a final embrace, still strapped in their seats. However, after reviewing the passenger manifest, there was one body not accounted for: Jessica's. Jason never found any evidence she had perished.
From that day forward, Jason was a changed man. He no longer showed any emotion, only loyalty to his duties. He quickly rose to the rank of Captain and became the leader of his own squad, which became known as the Wraiths for their successful night operations.
