- Jask (ジャスク Jasuku)
- Jakoh's eldest son, who rose to power within the Imperial Empire when his father usurped the Tentei. Jask is a brutish thug who loyally serves his father.
Personality
- Jask is depicted as a nasty brute who has no problem hurting other people including innocent people such as Myu and showed zero gratitude towards Rin when she accidentally saved his life.
- Despite his brutality, Jask is extremely loyal to his father and will obey his orders without question. Despite this, Jakoh often treats Jask abusively such as stabbing him in the leg with a scimitar during a panic attack and slapping him when Jask complained. When Jakoh was killed, Jask became obsessed with getting revenge for him to the point of sacrificing his life in a bid to lure Falco and Kenshiro to their doom.
Manga
- After Falco kills Jakoh, he escapes to the Land of Asura with Lin as his hostage, who unwittingly rescued him while he was trapped under debris during the collapse of the Imperial Palace. Falco tracked him down, only to find he and his soldiers had been slaughtered on the shores of Shura. Shortly before dying, Jask tells Falco that Asura is indeed a hellish land and the only thing he desires is to see Falco die while going after Lin.
Video Games
- Hokuto no Ken 3: Jask appears as an encounter in the Imperial palace who cannot be defeated and always runs away. He kidnaps Lin to lure Kenshiro to the land of Shura and is mentioned to have died there by an Asuran NPC.
- Hokuto no Ken 5: Jask appears as a boss character. Curiously his ponytail is absent.
- Shin Hokuto Muso: Jask appears as a boss in various dream modes. He uses the same dual club moveset as Zeed.
Notes
- In the anime series, Jask's role is replaced by Taiga, the General of the Green Light.
- Jask continually shows signs of his various injuries throughout his appearances in the manga. After Jakoh stabs Jask's leg, he is seen walking with crutches, and after Ein punches him, Jask is covered in crude and bloody bandages.
