Biography
Jason, a rancher on the planet Equellus, is an acquaintance of Bootes and his sister Vella.
Jason informs Vella that Bootes is en route to town, drunk and intent on confronting Lacerta regarding the theft (called "tribute") of his livestock. After Bootes' death, Jason comforts Vella and helps remove Bootes' body to the wagon. When Apollo subsequently destroys Red-Eye, Jason is seen picking up the Cylon's discarded laser pistol, presumably becoming the new de facto "sheriff" in town (The Lost Warrior).
