Appearance and Character
- See also: Images of Jason Mallister
Lord Jason has brown hair mixed with white, a chiseled face and fierce blue-grey eyes.[2] During the War of the Five Kings, he wears a winged helm.[3]
Catelyn Stark thinks Jason is still handsome[2] and rides like a man who fears nothing.[4]
History
Lord Jason is a renowned tourney knight, participating in several tourneys over the years. He was defeated in the tourney at Storm's End by Prince Rhaegar Targaryen and Ser Barristan Selmy.[5][6] As a bannerman to House Tully, he attended the wedding of Catelyn Tully to Eddard Stark where his gifts were lavish.[4]
During Robert's Rebellion, Jason fought bravely at the Battle of the Trident, slaying three of Rhaegar's bannermen,[7] according to semi-canon sources to avenge the death of his brother.[8] During the Greyjoy's Rebellion in 289 AC, he killed Rodrik Greyjoy beneath the walls of Seagard, throwing the ironmen reavers back into the sea.[9]
After the conclusion of Greyjoy's Rebellion, King Robert I Baratheon ordered a tourney at Lannisport to celebrate his victory. There, Lord Jason was defeated by the eventual champion, Lord Jorah Mormont.[10]

Lord Jason attends the Hand's tourney in King's Landing, where he defeats Aron Santagar in a joust.[7] In the opening weeks of the War of the Five Kings, Ser Kevan Lannister identifies Lord Jason and House Mallister as one of the only standing threats to the Lannister campaign in the riverlands but Lord Tywin Lannister disregards him, believing Jason is not strong enough to fight alone.[11] Once Robb Stark marches past the Twins, Lord Mallister adds his strength to Robb's and takes part in the battle in the Whispering Wood,[12] during which he captures Lord Gawen Westerling.[3]

Lord Jason returns to Seagard after Robb Stark is proclaimed King in the North and of the Trident, accompanied by his son, Patrek Mallister, and Theon Greyjoy.[15] When he thinks his son is growing too close to the young ironman, Jason reminds Patrek whom Seagard was built to protect against.[9] As no ships from the Iron Islands await Theon on his arrival in Seagard, Jason Mallister believes the ravens Robb had sent from Riverrun to announce Theon's return had been lost and thus he sends his own birds.[9]
At the Battle of the Fords, Lord Jason commands the defense of four fords, including the one closest to Riverrun.[16]
