==History==<br />
'''Jason Marik-Torrenson''' was not considered by any chance an outstanding MechWarrior. He served in several FWL units and never noted for his tactics or skills; indeed, if not for the superior quality of his 'Mech most of his commanders think he would have died.<br />
After retiring from military service, he was appointed governor of [[Holt]], a post he still kept in [[3018]]. He was the third cousin to [[Captain-General of the Free Worlds League|Captain-General]] [[Janos Marik]].<br />
<br />
In [[3018]] Holt was raided by the mercenary unit [[Snord's Irregulars]]. The Irregulars were conducting [[Operation JUNK YARD DOG]], a campaign of deep raids against the [[Free Worlds League]], with the intention of recovering items from the Irregulars' museum on [[Clinton]] that had been captured by League forces in late [[3017]]. Having recently raided the world of [[Nestor]], the Irregulars had jumped to Holt while the [[Free Worlds League Military]] attempted to enforce blockades on the Irregulars' most likely path back to the [[Lyran Commonwealth]]. The Irregulars had information indicating that items from their collection - including recordings collected by [[Rhonda Snord]] of the [[twentieth century]] musician Elvis Presley - were being held on Holt. Making planetfall in mid-April, the Irregulars launched an attack on a [[BattleMech]] repair depot located close to the Great Swamp in the Feathered Plains region, clashing with Rainbow Company of the [[Twenty-seventh Marik Militia]].<ref name="CSI:OJYD"/><br />
<br />
Following the battle at the 'Mech repair facility the Irregulars launched an assault on the Marik estate and house of the planetary governor, Jason Marik-Torrenson, hoping to capture Marik-Torrenson and use him as leverage to get through the blockade. Tangling again with the Twenty-seventh Marik Militia, the Irregulars successfully captured Marik-Torrenson, with [[Cranston Snord]] defeating Marik-Torrenson's ''Marauder'' in single combat.<ref name="CSI:OJYD">''Cranston Snord's Irregulars'', pp. 5, 39-47 (Scenarios "Junk Yard Dog Affair" I-IV)</ref><br />
<br />
Cranston Snord delivered Marik-Torrenson directly to [[Katrina Steiner]] to her surprise.<ref name="CSI:OJYD"/><br />
<br />
He was ransomed back to the Free Worlds League, but this incident cost him any chance he had to attain the throne of House Marik.<ref name="CSI:OJYD"/><br />
<br />
==BattleMech==<br />
He always piloted 'Mechs in excellent condition. In his last known battle he piloted a ''[[Marauder]]''.<ref name="CSI:OJYD"/><br />
