</tabber>
===History===
Lock met Joshua in the morgue Molly works at while investigating a case. An old friend of Joshua’s took Joshua to meet Lock, and Lock was seeking a roommate to help cover rent. Lock and Joshua became roommates, and began working cases together, Lock relying on Joshua’s doctor skills over an actual coroner. Joshua and Lock worked several cases created by one Mariner, who would put people in suicide vests and give them a crime for Lock to solve, in order to save their lives. (A suicide vest in this case being a bunch of dragonflame cacti with a sniper prepared to set it off). Lock managed to solve all of the cases, and was lured into the false sense of security that he’d outsmarted Mariner, but he was mistaken. Mariner had kidnapped Joshua and put him in a vest, threatening to have both Joshua and Lock killed together. Lock instead lit a blow dart on fire and aimed at the vest, prepared to blow up all three, Joshua, Lock, and Mariner. Lock and Joshua were saved by Mariner needing to be somewhere else. 
Later Mariner returns and manages to convince the whole continent that Lock was a fraud. That the crimes were orchestrated for him to solve and gain popularity. Mariner himself claimed to be an actor hired by Lock to make his crimes seem real. Mariner and Lock met at the top of a mountain, and Mariner declared that Lock had to kill himself or Joshua, Grey, and Hudson would die in his place. Mariner then proceeded to “kill” himself by impaling. Lock then stepped up to the edge and had his final conversation with Joshua, who witnessed his best friend’s “suicide”. 
2 years later, Lock returned from his faked death, after being tortured by SkyWing captors. He was rescued by his brother, Myght, who brought him back to The Night Kingdom. Myght then allowed Lock back into society after he was recovered, and Lock immediately went to find Joshua. Unfortunately Lock interrupted Joshua when he was about to propose to Maracuya. Joshua proceeded to beat the living daylights out of Lock for faking his death, getting the three of them kicked out of three different restaurants.
