Jason Frudnick

Jason Frudnick is the main character in most of the Blaster Master adventures.

History
He's the husband of Eve, father of Roddy and Elfie, and destroyer of the Plutonium Boss after finding his pet frog, Fred. His last name is sometimes known as Gardner, perhaps as a nod to Kane Gardner, the main character of Meta Fight whom Jason was based on.

Jason is most famous for piloting the Sophia 3rd and Sophia 4th. His primary weapon is the Gun, and he uses short-range supplementary Grenades. There's not much known about him, other than he grew up as a normal teenage boy and seems to possess a strong sense of bravery. After inheriting the Sophia 3rd, he learned quickly how to operate, maintain, and even improve on the original alien technology.

Appearances and Synopses
Jason is a normal young boy who pets a frog named Fred. One day, Fred escapes from his tank and jump onto a box filled with radioactive substance, causing the frog to grow in size. The frog then jumps down a large hole nearby and disappears. Jason follows the frog down the hole to the underworld, where he comes across the tank Sophia 3rd parking next to the entrance to the Forest. Realizing something is wrong with the environment,Jason equips the combat suit and pilots the tank.

Jason adventures through the underworld, fighting lurking monsters and ends up defeating Fred twice. Journeying even deeper underground, he eventually fights Underworld Lord and saves the world from a mutant invasion. Jason restores Fred in the ending.
