overall personality , jace does his best to put on the tough guy mask. he likes people to think that nothing will break his calm and that nothing will get under his skin, and a lot of times, nothing really does. being in the marines for as long as he was, shit doesn't phase him. getting yelled at, people being in his face, and people wanting to fight him. he's learned to just give people a cold look and stare at them until they back off. that doesn't mean he enjoys any of it though, and he isn't afraid to push back when things get too heated, and when jace pushes back, things are getting serious. he doesn't like being mean and will try everything in his power to keep situations calm and settled, but a lot of times, that doesn't always work out, and he has to intervene using physical force, and if abilities get invovled, he sometimes has to use his ability of generating force fields to contain the power and to protect the one being attacked.

even though he is a big hardass, jace is haunted by his past as a marine. he has nightmares when he sleeps, and a lot of time, wakes up in the middle of the night in a sweat, shaking so badly that some thing he's having a minor seizure. since he never was relieved of duty, he never went through the mandatory therapy sessions that saved the mentality of a soldier, and it sometimes gets to him. jace is extremely shell-shocked. if he hears something that sounds like an explosion or a shot, he immediatly hits the dirt and ducks for cover. some make fun of him for it, others feel sorry, but he can't help it. it's been burrowed into his brain and he never had the chance to be relieved of that training. jace tries his best to push through those fears, but its hard, and he does have a hard time dealing with it most of the time.

history , jace daniel reid was born in pheonix arizona to jordan and rebecca reid. he was your average teenage boy. moody, girl crazy, loved to fight, and loved to do what boys do. he just had more of a fighting spirit than most. his dad was gone for a lot of his life, being over in afghanistan fighting the war, so he was raised by his mother alone. most people think that being raised by a mom makes you more feminine and act more girly, well, that wasn't the case for jace. he still grew up a fighting, wrestling with his friends every chance he got, but boy was he a mama's boy. he would protect that woman with his life to this day if she were still alive. he felt like he had to since his dad was gone. he felt like he had to step up and be the man of the house at a young age. when high school came around, jace was one of the biggest boys in the school, standing at a solid six foot two and weighting around one hundred and eighty pounds. he wasn't one to mess with, and that put him automatically at the top of the food chain. at this point, jace knew he wanted to go into the military some how, and it wasn't until the marine recuriter came into the school and talked with jace. his senior year, he enrolled and boot camp began.

jace was sent off to virginia to train at a camp, and he got his ass handed to him by the extreme work outs and the instructors who were all tough as nails. jace loved it though. he loved the rush, the adrenaline, the pain; all of it. it made him feel like he was doing something good for once. like he wasn't just doing this to put himself through it, but it was going towards a cause. in his fourth month of training, he got a letter from his mother, saying that his father had died in action just a couple days ago, and she wanted him to come home as soon as he could. he was put on leave from training in the next couple of days and given the formal, boot camp uniform to wear at his father's funeral. put on a plane paid by the army, he was sent back home and when he got home, it felt like his entire world collapsed around him. he hadn't grown up with his father, and now, he wouldn't even get that chance to tell his dad what he was doing. standing beside his mother, staring down at his dad's face, was the hardest thing he'd ever had to do in his life. despite many beliefs, jace didn't turn from the military, but instead, it pushed him on. gave him even more of a drive to almost avenge his father, while protecting the rest of the united states at the same time.

after a year in the extreme training, jace was put through boot camp at the top of his class, and automatically made a private first class, serving beside some of the most skilled men and women the marine's put out. almost immediately, he was shipped over into iraq, where even more fighting had exploded. there, he was put in charge of a small team of men, and put on his first mission. a small, easy take down of a little group just outside of the main city. it was a success, and only one man had minor injuries. it wasn't until the threat of the nuclear bomb came along that jace knew shit was going to get serious. he was ranked up to lance corporal for his success in almost of the the missions assigned to him, so when he was sent into iran to help guard the civilians, he was in charge of an even larger team. about his third night in is when they were ambushed. a few men were on guard, everyone taking their rounds, and jace had stayed up, drawing out plans on how they would move to their next position. unknown to his knowledge, the men on guard had been taken out by sniper fire, so when they were attacked, there was no warning. a grenade was thrown into jace's area, and luckily, most of the men got out of the way in time. all that jace was left with the scar on his face.

men rushed in from all sides, and jace shouted orders, grabbing the pistol he always kept on his side, taking out two men as they burst into his quarters. shots rang for almost two hours, and when the shooting finally ceased, jace had lost ten men out of twenty-five from his team. the hardest thing he had to do was to call the master sergeant and tell him what had happened, and that they needed medical help immediately. of course, he went back to the united states to attend them funerals of the men he had lost, apologizing to the families for their loss, and leaving there wishing he could have done more to protect the men that were deceased. once the funerals had passed, he went back to base, got on a plane, and was back on duty, now as a corporal. even though is rank would have normally kept him on the sidelines, he wanted to be in the action, and so he was assigned six new men to his team, and just as they were about to go on security watch, the call about iran threatening the united states with nuclear weapons came in.

instantly, they were sent to one of the major cities on the east coast to secure the areas, because the threats were so severe. the team was sent to manhattan, new york, along with six other large teams to guard each section of the island. the entire city was in chaos when the arrived, and people were taking advantage of a possible death. crimes revolving around stealing, robbing, and highjacking cars were becoming an everyday thing. the religious folks would come out on the street, screaming for god to help them. so many suicides were happening and it was a mess, and not even the military force could keep things calm and under control. around four in the morning was when the first report that a missile had been sighted came across the radios. jace's heart sank, because he knew that they couldn't avoid a missile, and there was no way to stop it if it was nuclear. if they intercepted it, they would risk destroying much more than just a city, because two different missiles reacting together would be disastrous. all he could do, was sit, listen to the sirens, screaming, and wailing until they hit.

everything was black when jace woke up next. he was covered in debris, a small slab of concrete laid across him, and he had so many cuts and bruises from being hit with things, he didn't know how he survived. after he stood up, and really focused, things started coming in clear. it was like the sun had instantly shot into the sky and he could see everything. confusion ripped through his body, because just a couple seconds ago, everything was black. everything was dark, but now he could see. he started roaming once he felt like it was safe to move, and not five hours later, he came across kenneth jack white, a brain surgeon. the two men united, and it wasn't until they stopped to rest after hunting for survivors, that they realized just what was given to them from the radiation. kenneth reached over, held his hand above one of jace's severe wounds, and healed it completely. powers. their dna had been mutated and supernatural abilities were imbedded into them.

the two men discovered more and more survivors, and finally made a base in an old subway, dragging beds from destroyed homes and apartments, finding food, and staying as close as they could, hoping that someday, they would be able to rebuild.

ability description , jace's abilities are not too complicated, nor too special, but they do come in handy every once in a while. one of his abilities is his night vision, enabling him to see in the pitch of black. normally, do to this ability, he sleeps during the day, and takes guard at night or goes out on hunts when kenneth's daughter, arianna, takes nights. his other ability is to generate force fields. he hasn't really had to use this ability much, because there has been no reason for it. the only time he has, is when they are hunting and someone is about to be attacked by an animal, or when there are fights within the clan and powers start being used.
