Personality
Jason is kind, empathetic, honorable and humble. He can be confident and boisterous as Northwatch, but this is only as a result of embracing and trying to bring some Mountie authority to the alter ego. He is a loyal, honest protector and provider. He skirts the line between lawful good and neutral good, usually willing to smack his foes into submission, but capable of distinguishing a lost soul from true evil. He tries to see good and potential in each and every individual and approach each situation with a unique solution.
Two of the most notable traits of Jason's personality is his protectiveness and love for animals. He is a husband and father first in life, and that's reflected in every aspect of his personality. He is the first to pry a trap from the paw of a bear, or give his enemy a moment of mercy sooner than have to cause them further harm. Jason is bound by the very same moral code that Akna has chosen him for.
(Jason in his RCMP uniform.)
Jason McRae
Jason was a husband, father, Mountie, and average human man stationed at FS Steelhead, where his mother was stationed when she gave birth to him.
One blistering cold evening, he was investigating recent reports of Hunter Patriot party sightings when they ambushed him. Outnumbered and outgunned, they cut him down and left him for dead in the snow's icy embrace.
Akna, the Inuit Goddess of fertility and birth came to him in his final moments, offering him a deal. She would not only spare his life on this day, but bestow him with gifts of the ancient spirits. He would wield the strength and senses of every fallen Inuit warrior throughout time, but he must swear to Akna to use those gifts to protect Canada whilst helping others to prevent the return of an ancient evil determined to snuff the warmth and glow of all life on our precious planet... Kigatilik!
Upon returning to Steelhead, wounds miraculously healed, his first move is to inform his superiors of the encounter. Naturally, they dismiss him at first and standard protocol is carried out. It's only after his powers begin to emerge, giving him a chance to use them in Steelhead's defense, that command begins to take it all seriously.
Northwatch
After careful consideration and consultation from his most trusted friends and officers, Mark Derringer comes up with a bold, ambitious new plan. He speaks with Jason at length to get a sense of just how far this loyal, hard working Mountie is willing to go above and beyond the call of duty in order to put his newfound gifts to work. What he finds is a man eager to do just that, but still unsure of what exactly that would mean. To inspire Jason, Mark tells him the story of a vigilante hero who went by the name of Northwatch in the 1940s. A brave, resourceful human man with no powers, no magic, and no mutations, who fought and defeated an evil Nazi revenant group called the 4th Reich. Mark suggests using the name when Jason mentions that he hasn't come up with anything yet.
By the time Jason had come face to face with an Inuit Goddess, most of Canada's prominent, premiere heroes had all relocated to the Michigan area in the years after the the Battle of Detroit. With many of its Champions preoccupied south of the border, Steelhead receiving its very own super powered individual was quite literally a godsend in the struggle against the oldest adversary of the North. The time was now, and Mark Derringer was going to take the fight straight to him. Calling in some favors from a few old friends in Lonnie Lawrence and Billy Edenshaw, Derringer forms Operation Cold Front.
Operation Cold Front
Operation Cold Front is dedicated to investigating and containing matters regarding the Inuit God Kigatilik. Activities include subduing Ice Demon activity, gathering counter intelligence on the plans and motives of Kigatilik and his followers, as well as making strides toward mounting a flush and robust offensive against Lynx Fold using all of the resources the Canadian Wilderness has to offer.

Enemies
Kigatilik is a devout agent of the Ice Spirit, and an exiled Inuit God. Released by Rakshasa in 2009, he now sits atop Lynx Fold, plotting against the North, the shaman who betrayed him, as well as his fellow gods who cast him out. Ruling over legions of ice demons and their network of spies and corrupted servants, Kigatilik is the greatest threat faced by the Canadian Wilderness, and the sworn archenemy of the new Northwatch mantle.
Blackwatch
Blackwatch is a demonic doppelganger of Jason McRae. He was created by Kigatilik to mock Akna's effort to hinder his plans as well as destroy her human Champion, The Steelhead Sentinel. He has all of Jason's abilities, with the notable addition of mimicry. Blackwatch can make himself look and sound exactly like Jason McRae, or Northwatch any time he desires.
His only motivation is to bait out and destroy Northwatch. He is a diabolical, sadistic mastermind who is known to manipulate other villains in order to antagonize and trap Northwatch.
Titanium Patriot
Kyle Reid was a Corporal stationed at FS Steelhead as well as the long-time partner and best friend of Jason McRae. One blistering cold evening, the pair were investigating recent reports of Hunter Patriot party sightings when they were ambushed. Kyle's vehicle is struck by an RPG as they patrol the snowy Canadian wilderness, severely injuring his legs and causing his vehicle to careen away from Jason's. Before Jason can reach him, he is baited into the fight and cut down.
As Akna is striking a deal with Jason to spare his life and injuries, Hunter Patriots are recovering Kyle as their prisoner. He survives his injuries, but loses both legs. Bound to a wheelchair, he is tortured, interrogated, and manipulated. As the years pass by, the Patriots poison his mind against Northwatch and Steelhead, using his bitterness and anger to steer him further toward their extremist ideology.
When they have begun to convert him to their motives and cause, and the time is just right, they give him a suit of power armor and direct him toward Force Station Steelhead, and Northwatch.
Death and Legacy
Backed by the Armed Mounties and other Canadian allies, the members of Operation Cold Front battle Kigatilik in the very near future. During the conflict and attempt to seal him in the Frost Tomb, Kigatilik kills Northwatch. Upon his death, Akna's gifts migrate to Jason's seventeen year old daughter, Hailey Jade McRae. She rises in his memory to take up her father's mantle and become the next Northwatch.
After his death, members of Cold Front and other friends of Jason form The Sentinels team in his memory, pursuing a broader range and scope of work to help the Canadian Wilderness, as Jason had always insisted Cold Front should.
