Jack Stryker

"My life is like a movie. And this movie doesn't have a surprise ending... the good guys win." - Don Quixote Jack Stryker, summing up his own existance without realizing it.

Jack Stryker, also known as Corporal Stryker, Sargant Stryker[sic], Commander Stryker, etc. as his rank changes nearly every time he is mentioned, is the protagonist in Jace Connors' debut novel Tiberius Rising. Jack is a Mary Sue by Jace's own admission and is essentially Jace's narcissism personified, being an elite "Spec Op" stealth warrior who excels at everything and is bad at nothing. We know his name from this tumblr post in which Jace gives him a stupid and hamfisted quote to pimp his new novel.

Jack Stryker is portrayed as a "strong, silent type" professional leader whose dialogue consists almost entirely of dramatic, heavy-handed one-liners and terse orders to his "squad". He can be imagined as a non-ironic version of Duke Nukem with more military fanboyism.

My life is like a movie. And this movie doesn't  have a surprise ending... the good guys win." "...And you're the 'good guy'?" Amerine said, looking up at himw ith disbelief." "Hell no... but I'm still going to win."
