Jason Kurita was the great-grandson of Urizen Kurita.
History[edit]
He was known for the reign of terror he unleashed on the Principality of Rasalhague after his father's death.[3]
Daniel Sorenson's existence provided Jason with a continual reminder of the hated Sorenson clan, who in his mind personified the terrorists who killed his father and family. He never referred to Daniel as a nephew.[4]
When Nihongi Von Rohrs enacted his coup on New Samarkand in 2421, Jason Kurita followed his depraved instincts and supported Von Rohrs, even sending troops to fight against loyal Draconis forces.[4]
When Daniel Sorenson started his rebellion, it spread and citizens joined the movement in droves. As a result, Jason recalled his troops from New Samarkand, and Nihongi retaliated by removing the governor from office. While guards loyal to Von Rohrs forcibly removed the governor from his throne room, Daniel offered his uncle one last chance to accept exile. In response, the ex-governor pulled a small pistol and shot at young Sorenson. He failed and Daniel killed his uncle in self-defense amid several stunned witnesses.[4]
