History WMG / FarCry3

After Jack evicted Dr. Krieger from Jacutan Peninsula, Krieger and Crowe's mercenary army (actually a small cell of Hoyt's Privateers) move to take over the area, along with the neighboring islands. One of those islands happens to be inhabited by the Rakyat, who push back against the Privateer raids with increasing ferocity under their chieftain, Semeru (from ''Evolution''). Once Jack kills Semeru as well, Citra becomes his successor as the Rakyat chief, and continues the feud with the Privateers, which brings us to the state of affairs we see on the Rook Islands today. Nice job, Jack.

After he evicted Dr. Krieger from Jacutan Peninsula, his mercenary army (actually a small cell of Hoyt's Privateers) move to take over the area, along with the neighboring islands. In response to Privateer raids, Semeru, chief of the Rakyat, begins a campaign of attrition against them, and passes the feud onto Citra after his death. Nice job, Jack.

The game gives us plenty of clues how Jason is turning into another Vaas, and that once, Vaas used to be like Jason. Whatever Vaas stabbed Jason with, Jason sees it as the knife because he comes to that realization as well, which explains while walking to their final confrontation why their images are intercut with each other and he hears Vaas' voice saying, "You are me, and I am you". Citra does say Vaas abandoned his birthright, most likely as the Warrior. As someone definitely more familiar with the Rakyat culture, Vaas probably knew what [[BrotherSisterIncest details]] that [[OutWithABang would entail]] and left before he ever received the tatau. She says Hoyt lured him away with drugs, but what exactly is she doing to Jason? Citra keeps Jason in the dark about her final plans and has him tied up during the ending, so unlike Vaas, Jason can't escape.

He has a lot of the traits common with BPD: sudden intense mood swings, violent 'tendencies', and drug addiction, to name a few.

Assuming that this game does take place in the same universe as the AssassinsCreed games do, then by the end of the game, assuming you pick the ending where you save Liza and the others, then Jason has spent the past several days, (weeks even?) in the jungle killing people, growing extremely desensitized to it and even getting a rush off of it. If it is at all possible for Jason to recovery psychologically, then that will be a long and arduous road. But at the same time, there's also the fact that he has become skilled with various forms of weaponry, particularly blades. He's snuck up behind people, come down from above onto them, and overall has become a lethal jungle warrior. If he can't get rid of all that inner rage and bloodlust, then maybe he could at least channel it into something productive under the guidance of the Assassins.

[[WMG: Rook Island is a part of [[ChangelingTheLost Arcadia]], with Citra as its Keeper.]]

* Indeed, it isn't so much as Jason just plain hallucinating Vaas' death, as it is Vaas DELIBERATELY causing Jason to hallucinate his death. But why would the LaughablyEvil, AxCrazy Pirate Leader decide to FakeTheDead when Jason was looking for a final showdown? Because Vaas finally took his own advice: Insanity IS doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. In a case of FridgeBrilliance, this applied to both Jason and Vaas equally, as they kept trying to kill each other ComicStrip/SpyVsSpy style, kept failing to put the other in the ground, and kept expecting that they'd get a different result if they kept trying to kill each other. Vaas finally realized the only way to break the cycle was if one of them died, [[HypocriticalHumor but since he isn't crazy enough to willingly die]], he plugged Jason with some hard drugs, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere and got the hell off the Rook Islands]]. The reason [[CainAndAbel Citra]] and [[BiggerBad Volker]] say he's dead is because they only have Jason's drugged-up story to go on, and since Vaas [[NeverFoundTheBody vanished without a trace]], they assumed [[DeathSeeker he finally got killed by the one man as crazy as he was]].
