*"I am the man who survived several suicidal missions and I had fought in several operations throughout my paramilitary career. I swore to protect, serve, and defend my country at all costs, even if the cost is my own life."* - Jay's audio log

*"I might be a killer, but I want to give up this life to start anew. Every time I tried to leave this life, it comes back to me every f\*\*\*ing time! If you want a monster, then I will give you a monster. I took out hundreds if not, thousands of enemies throughout the years, and I'm damn good at my job. I might regret anything that I did, but my lack of remorse and sheer focus made me far more dangerous than before. I will use my combat tactics and ruthlessness to protect the weak at all costs, even if I don't survive. That's why I'm the Raider."* - Jay embracing the title of the "Raider"

**Jay Trevor Roberts** is the main protagonist in the Canon series of the Reboot timeline.

He is an honorably discharged combat veteran of the US Army that joined up with the WTO, a private military company for hire in the United States. Despite making attempts at leaving his violent lifestyle as an operator, Jay was forced to fight his way out of this life by hunting down criminal organizations and mercenary groups and wiping them all out to both survive and leave his past behind to start anew.

## Background

*"As long as Hansel is captured or killed, I'm willing to die to protect this country. Besides, it shouldn't be too hard."* - Jay's notable line to Major General Winchester

As shown in the Wartime Origins series, Jay was a Private during his time in the Army and he was introduced to Mordecai Winchester, a former Major General and founder of his own special forces unit, the 38th Snake Regiment. Fascinated by his natural strength, perseverance, and quick adaptability to his surroundings, Winchester personally asked Jay to join the unit to help capture or kill Jonathan Fritsch Hansel, an East German war criminal that terrorized Europe and Asia. Wanting a spark of adventure in his life, Jay accepted the deal, but there were several things that he will need to do. To keep up with his fellow operators, Winchester taught Jay various combat tactics (mostly hand-to-hand techniques and marksmanship skills) from his experience as a Green Beret to mold the young Private into a hardened soldier.

As the unit was sent to the deep woods of Europe, Jay soon experiences the horrific acts of war after seeing various civilians dead in burned-down villages and helping injured villagers by providing food and first aid. However, Hansel's soldiers ambush Jay's unit, which resulted in 5 of the American soldiers being killed. As one of Hansel's men reloads his rifle to execute Jay, Jay was forced to succumb to his darker side and viciously stabs the soldier to death with his knife before gunning down a half dozen of Hansel's men, giving his surviving comrades a fighting chance and to cause the bloodthirsty soldiers to retreat.

In one of his missions, Jay was forced to save Winchester despite having orders not to from his second in command and got shot by Hansel himself upon doing so. After recovering from his wounds in a few months, Jay went back with a 12-man squad to kill Hansel, but the attack was a bust since Hansel's men shot down their helicopter, killing 7 of the men, except for Jay and 5 men. After seeing one of the men bleeding out from a major wound and noticing that most of their supplies were destroyed in the crash, Jay coldly shoots him out of mercy despite his fellow soldiers saying that he could be saved and ordering the 4 men to follow him. After making a campsite, the 5 men were forced to fight each other for food, but Jay quickly kills them after failing to get the last remaining supplies from the crash site (which was infested with Hansel's men patrolling the area), he was forced to cannibalize his men to survive (he mainly eaten the limbs). After regrouping with another squad led by 2nd Lieutenant Mordecai Winchester Junior, Winchester's son and second in command of the unit, Jay and the remaining members launched a full-scale assault on Hansel's headquarters, killing several mercenaries, including Hansel himself, whom Jay brutally fought himself.

By killing Hansel, Jay gained fame among the ranks of the military, and according to several people, Jay was a legendary soldier who stopped a war criminal from taking over the world. Jay was soon honorably discharged due to saving Winchester's life, killing Hansel, and fighting several men to save his team. He was rewarded with the Purple Heart, the Medal of Honor, the Army DSM, and the Army DSC. Wanting more action in his life, Jay joined up with the Winchester Tactical Operations PMC, a NATO-founded private military company that was co-founded by the Winchester family (who took over after the original owners either passed away or retired from the military life.

After fighting against one of his corrupt officers (Lewis Wright, a former Army Ranger, and Lieutenant General) and two terrorist factions in South America (The Argentinian Revolutionary Front and the Liberty Bombers), Jay quickly rose through the ranks and became the field commander due to his specialized training and leadership skills. He also helped co-founded and created the Reapers, an elite unit of highly skilled operators that specialize in special reconnaissance and unconventional warfare. However, Jay quickly became the next successor of the WTO after his mentor died from leukemia and earned praise from both his superiors and fellow Reapers for his effective leadership abilities and willingness to accept new people around the world to join the PMC.

## Biography

*"No matter what happens, I will never die as long as the mission is still online"* - Jay's refusal to die to complete a mission

After coming back to the United States, Jay, with the help of Mordecai Jr., was sent to Georgia to deal with Eric Steele, a former Army officer turned vicious leader of the Brotherhood, a ruthless militia force that enslaved a small town. After capturing Steele a while back, Jay and Mordecai were also sent to deal with Miles Harper, a bioterrorist that defected from the Green Hive, another private military company, to prevent him from launching a bomb buried in Washington DC.

After 6 months, Jay met Lilly Clarke, a woman from Louisiana and the two began becoming close companions that flirted with each other. After scaring her psycho ex-boyfriend Samuel away, Jay becomes closer to her and after going to a Christmas party with her family, coupled with the fact that he was living with her, Jay and Lilly quickly become lovers until Samuel interrupts the party. Angered, Samuel fights Jay, but Jay got the edge on him and ordered him at knifepoint to leave. However, Samuel and three men burned Lilly's home down, forcing Jay to chase the men down and knock out all three of the men, except for Samuel, who was killed by Lilly, who hid in Jay's car. Despite being together for 6 months, Jay was forced to leave Lilly to do a mission where he captures a former Navy SEAL that defected to the A.R.F.

After 3 years after several operations in various countries (particularly Sierra Leone and Yemen, which made him well known as the "Raider", his infamous codename), Jay came back to the United States and moved back to his private home after leaving the WTO to start a life of tranquility. However, Jay was forced to kill a dozen hitmen sent by Duke Bennett, the crime lord of the Red Order Syndicate, a feared criminal organization. Angered at the fact that he is now going to fight again, Jay gears up for war against the Red Order Syndicate and its allies; a bloodthirsty private army led by former Israeli Defense Forces Operator Randall Reed, a vicious mid-western paramilitary gang led by former Navy SEAL Dean Josephine Williamson, and a small time hunter/hit squad led by hitman Stewart Watson. Despite killing Duke and his allies for good, Jay was forced to kill both a small group of elite thieves led by Vincent Lee Harper (a former Delta Force operator) and a hit squad led by Dominick Smith (a former R.O.S. hitman that survived) with the help of his Reapers.

As the story progresses further, Jay was also forced to deal with 2 of his Reapers (Dwight "Smokey" McLaughlin and Micah Parker) for defecting with the A.R.F. and Mordecai Winchester Junior, who worked for a paramilitary force for more profit when Jay started to doubt their morality and attitude towards killing after recruiting the latter two operators. Despite the setbacks, Jay still managed to kill Roberto Salazar Junior (who survived the war) and wiped out most of the A.R.F. soldiers in Columbus.

However, after nearly dying two times from blood loss and realizing that by becoming more vicious like his deceased adversaries from working in the PMC, he was aware of the fact that he was slowly becoming the monster that he didn't want to be as he was on a mission with three of his associates (Abigail Woods, Steven Miller, and Jesse Sanders) to wipe out the remnants of the Washington Brothers, a vicious and bloodthirsty clan of rapists and murderers. Jay comes to terms with his brutality and starts to believe in himself as a good guy after being shot and left for dead by Trevor Bachelor, his contractor and founder of the Green Hive (which is Trevor's army). Jay sent himself off on a mission to kill Trevor and the Hive as his final goal to let go of his demons. After dismantling the Hive and criminal activity in Georgia for good, Jay reunites with Lilly, who was pregnant with his child and left Columbus.

Despite promising Lilly that he was going to leave the WTO, Jay's ambition and stubbornness quickly led him to get captured by a gang that was led by Jackson, a former National Guardsman. However, he quickly learns that their leader is Heather Calloway, who wanted Jay to turn against his PMC for his talents, but Lilly (who was trained by her father, who was a combat medic for the Marines) kills the entire gang, including Heather in retaliation of kidnapping him. After the events, Jay and Lilly got married and he retired from the PMC to raise his two children (Daryl and Lindsey). However, this life of peace didn't last for a while when an unknown man took over the Hive and sent hitmen after Jay and his family. It's revealed to Jay that the stranger was Jack Riley Sharpe, a former US Special Forces Operator and one of the Reapers whom Jay discharged for his extremely violent tendencies during an operation. With the help of his son Daryl (who was an honorably discharged Marine), the two took out Jack and the surviving Hive operators. After several years after the attack, Jay and Lilly moved to Blue Ridge at his private cabin until they came across a journalist, who unintentionally lure an unknown number of hitmen into the cabin, they managed to attack Jay and Lilly after killing the journalist.

While not shown, it is presumed that Jay and Lilly were killed or severely wounded and left to die. With Jay's death, The Reapers was disbanded and he was buried at Arlington National Cemetery. According to a few Reapers, he was branded as both a war hero and an effective leader/mentor respected for his soft-spoken demeanor and kind nature. However, it was revealed later that Jay and Lilly's death was avenged by Daryl, who killed the people (which was the former unit that Daryl ratted out for their crimes) responsible for the deaths of his family. Despite his death, Jay was considered to be a historical figure and renowned celebrity by both government officials and military personnel to the point where a statue of Jay himself was built in rural Georgia to honor him.

However, it's revealed in "DC Returns" that Jay and Lilly survived their attack by using body doubles and moved to Louisiana to avoid being hunted by Ryder Brubaker and his gang. As 14 years passed, Jay and Lilly went to the graves of their children upon hearing about them, which greatly devastated the couple. However, as the pair paid their respects, a small hit squad (revealed to be former Reapers) attacked them, but they were all killed by Jay in rapid succession. Though the attack was a bust, Lilly was mortally wounded, and not wanting her to suffer from her injuries, Jay reluctantly kills her out of mercy and went into hiding for a while. It's revealed later on that Jay reformed the Reapers again with recruits and his returning veteran operators to help Daryl Junior (his grandson) escape from the grasp of both David Kramer (another Reaper that Jay discharged for his anger issues and willingness to kill Mordecai out of hatred) and Eric Wright (who was another Reaper and is the son of Lewis Wright and sought revenge for his father's death).

As the Reapers finally found Kramer's compound (which was located in Dubai), Kramer and Wright's forces manages to wipe out most of the Reapers (except for Jay, Daryl, and 2 Reapers). Because of this, Jay seemingly shows the fear that Daryl might not survive and tries to convince him to stop fighting and give up, but Daryl doesn't react and manages to convince Jay to keep fighting, which encouraged the rest of the Reapers. After gearing up with makeshift armor and heavy weapons, the Reapers found their location (which was a hotel) and managed to fight their way through several men.

As Kramer makes his final stand and fights against the pair, Jay managed to push Daryl out of the way before fighting him. Fortunately for Daryl and unfortunately for Jay, Jay took a severe beating and a stabbing before using the last bit of his strength to kill Kramer. As Jay slowly began to succumb to his injuries, he reveals to Daryl that he wasn't a true hero and wasn't a perfect father for his family, but he was happy that he used his last years to both raise a decent family and see his grandson and genuinely smiles before succumbing to his injuries and dying as a flawed man that fully redeemed himself by dying for his family. Jay's body was found by the FBI coalition force (led by Special Agent Wade Bryan) and it was buried next to his family's graves in Johnstontown, Georgia (a fictional Civil War small town in the fictional county of King County, Georgia) to be remembered. Despite Jay's death, the WTO became more successful, and with Jay's influence, the functional PMC became more feared under the command of an unknown leader.

## Personality

*"Despite what people say about me, **I'm not a damn hero**. I'm just a monster that is extremely good at killing even the most dangerous people while following orders. Even though killing is the only thing I'm good at, I wanted to leave this lifestyle behind and start brand new. but deep down inside, I know that I can't leave because the bloodshed never ends. **I need to give in to the violence around me and fight my way out if I want to survive in this screwed up world**."* - Jay embracing the monster within

According to most people, Jay was described as an outgoing, soft-spoken, and somewhat sweet-natured man who cared for others as if they were his family, revealing a compassionate and respectful side to him. Jay was shown to care for his allies and will risk his life to protect them at all costs, even if that cost was his own life. However, it's revealed that Jay has a darker side to him if he was forced into a combat situation. As he fought against several gangs, terrorist cells, and mercenary groups, Jay developed a cold, ruthless, and vicious attitude that made both allies and enemies alike fear him. According to Mordecai Winchester (his mentor/father figure), Jay was described as a very brutal, merciless, and stern man who lacked any remorse for killing his opponents and was willing to torture his enemies in brutal ways for information.

Despite being vicious and cruel in his methods, Jay wasn't completely heartless and was shown to be deeply regretful of any kill that he ever committed and even admitted to his allies that he only killed people out of survival and it is presumed that Jay hates killing people in cold blood, despite having committed such acts throughout the series. His ruthlessness and brutality mostly stem from his severe PTSD, which he reveals through mild nightmares, constant drinking, and getting defensive around things that remind him of war. He also shows extreme aggression and fits of rage if forced to get his revenge, as shown when he destroyed an entire criminal organization (The Red Order Syndicate) to avenge his fallen family and friends. Depending on who he's fighting, his rage even has made him a more dangerous opponent in a physical fight.

Due to his moral code, Jay wouldn't harm civilians, especially children when in combat or on a mission. His morality stems from his time in the Army when he had to deal with Hansel. However, Jay was willing to wound civilians to kill his enemies, albeit with slight remorse. Unlike most soldiers, Jay tries his best to avoid civilian casualties and mass destruction to complete a task, showing that Jay has still retained a code of honor and was willing to save lives despite following direct orders from his mission.

Despite his willingness to fight his way out of certain scenarios, Jay has shown to be somewhat hesitant about taking another person's life and strongly believed that violence should be cold, necessary, and without feeling, showing that Jay only used violence if the situation calls for it and saw it as a last-ditch effort. Although Jay has an indifferent tone when it comes down to committing violence and torture against his enemies, he often admitted to his allies that he was disgusted by horrific acts of torture, as shown when he saw several mutilated victims of human trafficking after dealing with Randall and his army to save Lilly.

As described by his allies and enemies, Jay was infamous among criminal and terrorist groups to the point where he would strike fear into their hearts and souls when they know he was coming for him, revealing his stern and relentless nature as he set his sights on his target and was willing to chase his targets down either on foot or car. His ruthlessness was shown several times when he hunts down his enemies and he is shown to be a brave and resourceful operator, using whatever methods necessary to kill or capture his targets and to fight on the battlefield.

However, it's shown that Jay has become more pitiless and detached over time as shown as he is willing to leave his injured enemies to die or coldly shoots 3 Washington Brothers down while saving a woman. Despite his cold and ruthless nature, Jay is shown to maintain his code of honor to a degree and was willing to risk his life to save the people that are close to him, revealing his courageous side beneath a cold exterior.

Despite all of the negative personality traits, Jay completely managed to renounce his violent lifestyle as a soldier and appeared to have lost most of his violent and ruthless traits to raise his family and quickly became his true self, which was his sympathetic and compassionate nature. For example, nearly dying several times and having been convinced to give up his violent lifestyle by a former criminal finally opens Jay's eyes and gave him a chance for redemption.

By killing all of his "loose ends" and leaving the PMC, Jay has fully redeemed himself and has changed from the vicious and dangerous operator to the man who wanted a peaceful life. Even in his final moments, Jay will fight for his family and allies at all costs and die as a flawed man and a battle-hardened soldier that managed to regain his sympathy and confidence before passing away.

## Appearance

*"I'm looking for a man, **5'9, toned muscular build, light-skinned, black hair, brown eyes, various tattoos, and scars**. You know him?"* - Agent Wade Bryan describing Jay

As seen in an old military photo, Jay was seen as a young man with Army OCP and a skin fade-like buzzcut with light stubble.

As of 2039, Jay is approximately 36 years old, with a toned and muscular body covered in battle scars and tattoos that matched his lifestyle, and a head of thick black hair with dark brown eyes. He usually has a buzzcut/fade-styled haircut with a stubble beard in most of his appearances. Despite his age, Jay keeps up with a strict exercise routine to stay in peak physical condition.

As the stories progressed, Jay was shown to be in his late 50s to early 60s with weathered skin, and graying hair and began wearing glasses. Despite maintaining his muscular physique, Jay was leaner due to his strict dietary plans and workout routine. In "D.C's Return", Jay was in his 100s and was shown to have dark graying hair, a thick beard, and more weathering at the skin. He was also very slender due to his active routine.

## Abilities

*"Now, Jay Roberts is a man with sheer focus, commitment, and skill. I trained him with everything I've learned from the desert: **weapons, psychology, and tactics**. He's the man not to be messed with because he has wiped out enemy compounds through unconventional warfare and has killed hundreds of criminals and mercenaries at a higher price. **Take my advice seriously because I'm the man who created one of the most deadliest and legendary operators that were known by one name and that's the Raider**."* - Mordecai Winchester describing the danger level on Jay

Due to being a former Infantryman that was trained by a former Green Beret, Jay was shown to be a skilled soldier in both marksmanship and hand-to-hand combat techniques. He also used guerrilla tactics to mostly intimidate and outmatch his opponents through traps, raids, and ambushes. However, his combat experience was a bit improved as he fought in various battles with advanced hand-to-hand techniques and weapons training, knowing how to use different weapons from knives and bladed weapons to firearms and explosives if on a mission. His exceptional combat skills are showcased throughout the series, as shown as Jay guns down 4 armed mercenaries with one bullet each without missing a shot or hacking down a dozen Hive operators with a machete.

Given his expertise in unconventional warfare, Jay mostly used the art of espionage to infiltrate enemy compounds by using disguises, certain languages, or stealth to blend into the environment to kill his target. Combining bits of criminology, gave him exceptional insight into how illegal activities work, allowing him to get a chance to dismantle enemy operations through shock-and-awe tactics. He usually utilized an "Ace of Spades" playing card with a threat to strike fear and terror into his enemies by placing it onto a dead enemy's corpse.

As shown in the stories, Jay was a skilled strategist, having set up several ambushes and attacks, having kept his group of Reapers alive and well-trained for years, and using a lethal combination of street fighting and martial arts to outmatch even the most trained hand-to-hand fighters such as Randall Reed (who was in the IDF and several paramilitary gangs), Jack Sharpe (who was ex-special forces and was a Reaper), and Trevor Bachelor (who was a former major of the USMC). In the series, He set up traps around his cabin for protection and a hidden arsenal for easier access, showing a talent for engineering and handiness. He is also a skilled medic, capable of treating even the most severe wounds.

In terms of H2H, Jay has shown to be highly trained and skilled in Krav Maga, Systema, Muay Thai, Kick-Boxing, Boxing, Taekwondo, Karate (Kenpo, Okinawan, Kyokushin, Shotokan), Wing Chun, Judo, Jiu-Jitsu (both Kempo and Brazilian), Hapkido, Wrestling (both freestyle and Greco-Roman), Sambo, Eskrima/Kali, Ninjutsu, and various street fighting techniques. His fighting style (which is improvised to be quick and effective) has helped him defeat the most dangerous criminals and trained mercenaries during his years of fighting with the Reapers. Despite his age, Jay has shown to be in peak physical condition and was stronger, more agile, and flexible than most of his fellow Reapers, having fought for years in the WTO and was capable of lifting and throwing a taller and bulkier street thug by using a Firefighter's Carry wrestling technique, showcasing his strength. Despite his build, Jay was very durable, having been shot, stabbed, beaten, and pushed back by the force of an explosion that resulted in various internal injuries. He also lasted for several hours after suffering heavy blood loss and severe wounds.

To add to his physicality, Jay was shown to be a skilled free-runner, climber, and escape artist, requiring minimal interference. He can climb and traverse difficult terrain, scale, and vault over several obstacles with ease and be able to run or sprint far distances uninterrupted. Given his quick adaptability in certain environments, his sharp eye for detail, and having a collected attitude, it was revealed that Jay has a naturally advanced situational awareness, which allowed him to sense ambushes and sudden attacks in a quick and timely manner, which shocked allies and enemies alike. A notable example is when he knew that 12 armed hitmen were planning to kill him and even strategize his tactical planning to kill the hitmen by using the element of surprise, cover, and different weapons from his pistol to straight-up hand-to-hand combat. For his age. he is surprisingly shown to have the agility and flexibility of an experienced gymnast, using spins, flips, and kicks to either disarm his opponents or to duck out of the way from gunfire and explosions.

Jay is a skilled driver, having chased down several opponents, and handles well under pressure as he drove in several environments. He was also a skilled negotiator, having used his charisma and soft-spoken nature to lure criminals into lowering their guard and presenting facts, and telling lies without inducing intense emotion. According to Mordecai Winchester Jr, Jay mostly relies on tactics and maneuverability on a mission to avoid mass chaos rather than using brute force like some of his allies such as Dwight and Jack.

All and all, Jay is a highly skilled tactician who is both respected and feared by his allies and enemies alike, and his combined knowledge of unconventional warfare and combat experience made Jay an incredibly unpredictable and deadly threat that earned him the legendary title of "The Raider".

## Trivia

* Unlike most characters, Jay hardly swears in the series (except for several spinoffs) and that is due to his professional nature as a private military operator and his trying to maintain a collected attitude. However, Jay can be pushed to a limit where he does when he was in his most stressed. A notable example is when he talks to Steven about leaving his life as an operator.
* It's revealed that Jay has severe PTSD because he was shown drinking heavily, having mild nightmares, and having a short temper, as shown in "Jay's Origins".
* Even though it's never known. it's assumed that Jay has suicidal tendencies and as shown in his several fights with his opponents, he deliberately tries to get himself killed to both prevent killing more people and to see his loved ones again in the afterlife, but he managed to regain his self-control and appeared to have lost his tendencies after coming in terms with his darker side.
* Despite being the most skilled operator, Jay was shown to be a bit rusty in "Jay's Origins" and it's revealed that severe depression, combined with heavy use of alcohol and being inactive, was the main reason why his combat skills were hardly seen. As the story progressed, Jay became more active due to him giving up his addiction to alcohol and regaining self-control.
* Jay has a strong fascination for cars, especially pickup trucks (like his 2003 Ford F-150) and muscle cars such as his modified 2010 Dodge Charger R/T.
* Jay's specialty was hand-to-hand combat, given his peak physical condition and he admitted that he prefers using blades and non-lethal takedowns to defeat an enemy than using firearms, despite being highly proficient in gunplay.
* Jay was known for using a clean and effective approach on a mission and tended to avoid mass destruction by using unconventional warfare and espionage to effectively infiltrate enemy territory and kill his target.
* Jay's notable weapons are the Springfield Armory TRP Operator .45 Pistol with improved rifling, a custom KA-BAR knife, and a custom machete that he called "Jason" since he loved the "Friday the 13th" movie series and name it after Jason Voorhees, the series' main slasher.
* Despite being a regular private military operator, it's revealed that Jay was hired by various law enforcement agencies and security branches (notably the FBI and the CIA) to hunt down or kill their targets to protect the United States from domestic and international threats, which makes Jay into an invaluable asset for the government due to his versatility and strong combat proficiency.
* Despite having a relaxed temperament and being labeled as the most respected operator by his allies, Jay, when in extreme pain, is known for his violent fits of rage in combat, as shown as he fights against Trevor in his last battle after losing the high ground. His rage made him far more dangerous in a fight and was capable of outmatching his highly trained opponents through brute strength and durability.
* As described in his monologues, Jay was revealed to be a very cynical and nihilistic man with a hardened and pitiless nature as the story progressed and his kills became more and more brutal and violent. However, Jay strongly believed that he was a monster with a good heart that couldn't change his violent lifestyle but would use his killing skills to protect his allies from danger.
* Jay was the oldest main character in the Reboot Franchise, having made it to several timelines before dying at the age of 102 (the oldest age for an operator) and despite his age, he still retained his combat experience and physicality. With his death, Jay has finally completely redeemed himself and restored the strength of the WTO and other private military companies due to his strong sense of pride and determination.
* Before his death, Jay has killed (directly or indirectly) 1,656 people (1,715 if counted as the connected deaths) and 40 antagonists (only 10 or 20 are main or secondary antagonists), making him the only protagonist to have the highest kill count alive in the Canon series and were beaten by his Raider counterparts.
