Personality: Joser hangs on like a leech to those who appreciate him. It was this clingy personality that held back his writing career. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Joser is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: Born to a pair of adventurers, Joser grew up listening to his father's many stories. His martial abilities were realized during a raid on his village. He was recently attacked on the road and savagely beaten by bandits.
