Jason, Crown Prince of Corinth.
Family
- Father: The late King Aeson
- Mother: No name given
- Other: He did really have an uncle named Pelias, who was killed in battle when Jason was a baby. He has another (unnamed) uncle who sent him his father's sword and shield on his birthday.
- In HtLJ - 5.17 - The Academy, it's revealed that Lilith and Jason eventually have a daughter, Seska.
Wardrobe
- Jason's wardrobe stays very much the same throughout the course of the HtLJ Flashback episodes, the Young Hercules (Movie Pilot) and the show itself. He wears a black leather vest studded with metal rings and black pants. The vest is secured by what Lilith describes as 'that fancy belt' (1.08 - Keeping Up With the Jasons) and, under it, he wears a black undershirt (as seen in various points in the movie). In the Season 1 TV episodes, though, it is very common to see him shirtless.
- On his wrists, he wears gauntlets that match his vest and cover most of his arm from the wrist to a few inches below the elbow. He wears two styles of gauntlets: style 1 and style 2.
- In his left ear, though this is only in the series proper, he wears a small gold hoop. In all versions, he also wears, around his neck, a black leather torc with two long metal beads on the front.
- He also, later in the series, has a set of royal attire that he wears whenever he is at home at the palace. The black leather vest is traded for a loose tunic that is mostly gold with silver around the neck. His pants are still black, though made of a looser material than his everyday attire. He also has a long, black cloak with silver ram's head-shaped studs on it.
- Jason appeared shirtless in: 1.02 - Between Friends, 1.05 - Girl Trouble, 1.06 - Teacher's Pests, 1.08 - Keeping Up With the Jasons, 1.09 - Amazon Grace, 1.11 - Battle Lines I, 1.17 - Winner Take All, 1.26 - Cold Feet, and HtLJ - 4.21 - Top God. Also very briefly (though you only see him from the back) in the Young Hercules (Movie Pilot).
