His normal speaking voice is a deep growl. | |||
As with his clustermates, his original personality is warped. This is due to the bleed-through effects from the tokens they pass around. [[Cradle]] had made a concerted effort to pass his sociopathy to Snag, making him much more cold blooded and ruthless.<ref> When we give up our tokens, we give up aspects of ourselves.

He felt like himself again.<br/><br/> | |||

He | Snag was heavyset, 250-300 pounds and less than six feet tall. He had long black hair and a thick beard.<ref name="II1.5 e1">Beside her was Snag. He was heavyset. Two hundred and fifty pounds, at least, possibly three hundred pounds, and he wasn’t quite six feet tall. That mass was made even bulkier by his coat, which was fastened closed, draping down to his ankles, where his boots were. The sleeves had been modified to be longer, fitting the arms, which reached to the floor.<br/><br/>It was my first chance at seeing his face, though. He had long black hair and a thick beard, both in the loose heavy-metal take. His mask looked like he’d taken handfuls of black clay and layered it over the skin his hair and beard didn’t cover. The mask created a kind of neanderthal brow with a permanent glare built into it; the circles under his eyes were so dark it was hard to tell exactly where the eyeholes of the black clay mask started.

===Tinker Ability and Equipment=== | |||
Snag's Tinker ability manifested in a way that allowed him to create large gauntlets that fit over his arms. | |||
{| class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed wikitable" style="width:100%" | |||
|Equipment Features | |||
! scope="col" | | |||
|- | |||
| | |||
*Artifi-Arms V1 - His arms were at least partly mechanical, and could be damaged or destroyed without injury to him. They would sometimes "detonate" (without physically exploding) if damaged, creating a powerful charge of negative emotion for those nearby.<ref name="II1.6" /> | |||
*Artifi-Arms V2 - Second pair of arms he used were much more varied with a comunicator and others goodies.<ref name="5y II"> - [https://www.parahumans.net/2018/04/10/shadow-interlude-5-y/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 5y II]]</ref> | |||
*Trap - On one occasion a device resembling a gauntlet with attached electronic arm was left behind, presumably by Snag, with clawed fingers embedded in a door and door frame. His group claimed that this device was a bomb and would detonate if the door was opened, but its precise abilities are unknown.<ref name="II1.5" /> It seems likely that this was a spare of the same extended arms he wears. | |||
*Missiles - He kept chunky, explosive shurikens in his boot. When they detonated, they were accompanied by an emotional charge similar to his gauntlets.<ref name="I2 II">His hands freed, he reached back to his boot with one gauntlet.<br/><br/>He threw a trio of fat shurikens at me. My forcefield blocked them, saw them bounce off, one landing on the bed, two falling to the floor beside me.<br/><br/>I kicked the bed to bring the more solid bedframe to where I could grab it, and rammed the end of the bed at the corner where he was. The shurikens detonated behind me, and on the bed in front of me. Something that wasn’t fire or anything of the sort. Something jumped between them, like electricity but not. Where it touched me, my heart jumped, my mind stumbled, and feelings welled. - [https://www.parahumans.net/2017/11/28 Excerpt] from [[Daybreak 1.6]]</ref> | |||

Snag was heavyset, 250-300 pounds and less than six feet tall. He had long black hair and a thick beard.<ref name="II1.5 e1">Beside her was Snag. He was heavyset. Two hundred and fifty pounds, at least, possibly three hundred pounds, and he wasn’t quite six feet tall.

History[edit]
Background[edit]
Jonathan lost his parents early, and was deeply attached to his brother. He worked in a factory before he got blamed for a supervisor's screw up and was tossed out.
Gold Morning[edit]
He survived the end of the world, although his brother was obliterated simultaneously with parts of New York City.
Post-Gold Morning[edit]
Jonathan moved to Gimel and opened comics and games shop there. It reminded Jonathan of his deceased brother, who had owned a similar store, and provided a degree of hope and stability to him.<ref>
- Excerpt from Interlude 5y II</ref>
Jonathan triggered as part of a cluster during a terrorist attack on a mall by the Fallen. He watched his store burn, and failed in saving a young girl.
Early-Ward[edit]
Participated in the Norfair Community Center Attack, and proved to be intimidating opponent.
He was looking to hire people for a project, presumably to find the rest of his multi-trigger group. He wants to do test runs to ensure he succeeds on the first try. He has hired Tattletale as an information broker for the job.<ref name="I2 II"/>
He dies<ref>Interlude 5y II</ref> during the attack on the Fallen, killed by Rain.<ref>Shadow 5.12</ref>
Instead of outright dying, he is dragged into some sort of shard death state.
