Jason Peter Kane is a fictional character from Virgin Publishing's range of original full-length Doctor Who novels, the New Adventures. The New Adventures were fully licensed novels carrying on from where the Doctor Who television series had left off. Jason was introduced in Dave Stone's novel Death and Diplomacy in 1996.
Character history
Jason was born on Christmas Eve 1983 and grew up around London, although his father Peter was abusive towards him and his sister, leading Jason to eventually run away. In 1996, Jason was caught in an alien transportation beam, causing him to be deposited in a swamp on the planet t'Kao in the 26th century. After thirteen years, the first human being he saw was Bernice "Benny" Summerfield. They fell in love and got married, but after a turbulent relationship were soon divorced. When he first meets Benny, and they discuss their sex lives, Jason candidly discusses having slept with nine women, five men and a number of (to varying degrees) humanoid aliens.
