Little Joe

A rather large (ironically) robot toon who never really sticks on one place, and *loves* games of chance. He also suffers from shoddy construction, and has to deal with glitches and malfunctions.

## Personality

Little Joe's main trait is that he enjoys leaving things up to chance. He doesn't like immediately knowing outcomes, be they good or bad, and he takes joy in the uncertainty of his future. He'd much rather forgo assistance and see if he can do things himself, but that doesn't mean he's the same for others. He understands others don't tend to see the world the same way as him, so he's willing to offer his help if someone asks.

His view of himself is rather negative; he sees himself as broken, irreparable, and often useless. That doesn't stop him from trying new things or from being willing to assist, but this can create awkward scenarios when he gets complimented, as he doesn't see himself as deserving.

His main hobby, and also source of income, is gambling. He can often be found at gambling dens all over Einquell, and has a bit of a reputation in some parts. He much prefers games that leave nothing to skill, games where you don't tend to have much influence. He tends to shy away from poker, for example, though there have been incidents of him playing a few games when he's in need of money, or to get back at someone he dislikes.

Little Joe tends to live exclusively day-to-day. He feels as though any day could be his last, so why bother worrying about the future?

## Appearance

Despite his name, Little Joe is a rather large toon. He has a blocky torso, with thick tube-like limbs that jut out almost like a toy. His head doesn't appear attached to his body, and instead floats a few centimeters above a hole in the top of his torso. On the bottom of his legs he wears large boots, one red and one black. He wears a vest with a similar color scheme, red on one side and black on the other split down the middle, and he wears a green necktie wrapped around a collar on top of his torso that hangs in front of his vest. His head is shaped like a d6, pips and all, and he wears his face on the "2" side, with the pips being on his top right and bottom left. He projects a face over the top, one green circular eye and a light-blue grin divided via gaps in the shape, and though he can change this design at any time the light can never appear on top of the pips.

## Backstory

Little Joe used to work at a casino in Lost Wages, a large city in the desert built around sucking the money out of everyone and anyone that sets foot within their borders. After the casino he worked at went under (they got caught cheating their patrons) Little Joe found himself without a job, money, or friends, and decided to set off into Einquell proper, just to see how far he could go.

## Shenanigans

Little Joe's first major adventure was in The Forest, along with Primrose, Celeste, and Barbara. After wandering around amongst animals that were suddenly much larger than them, doing various jobs for townsfolk, and also dealing with Primrose having a Very Bad Time, the group would then go on to fight some Undead Owlbears, where he (and Primrose, again) would fall unconscious. The fight would end up giving the group a bit of turmoil due to the owlbear children being angry at the party for killing their mom, but at the end of the day they all made it through.

Little Joe's latest adventure is as a member of Whitty's crew on the quest to reach Atlantis, where thus far he almost got forced into the water (and likely killed), and made friends with Whilma, the ship. (More will be added to the section as more sessions take place)
