Joe Johnson

**Joe Johnson** is a player character from the campaign *Mindtraveller* and it's upcoming sequel *Unbreakable*. He is played by Anub.

## Description

### Appearance

Joe is a man in his early 40's. His physical appearance is that of a wide, slightly overweight man who now shows only a hint of the musculature he had gained during his time in the military. He has a scar stretching from the right side of his left eyebrow to slightly beyond the left side of his mouth, and is completely bald save for the stubble of his facial hair.

Joe's wardrobe is highly consistent of his standard custodian jumpsuit, with a few T-shirts and cargo shorts/khakis to supplement his casual wear. As far as formal attire goes, Joe is rather clueless and owns only a white button up shirt and a blazer. Regardless of whatever he happens to be wearing, an absolute staple of Joe's wardrobe is a cracked wristwatch that is functionally broken, but is otherwise kept immaculately cleaned.

### Personality

On the surface, Joe is an amiable college janitor, but further prodding reveals that he is possibly a bit more troubled than he originally lets on. Throughout the events of Mindtraveller, Joe's bond with his companions deepens and he takes on a role similar to a parental figure or mentor. Joe often has a very positive outlook on things, believing that most people are redeemable and no situation is without a solution.

## Biography

### Background

Not much is known of Joe's early life prior to his deployment in the army, other than the fact that he grew up in a catholic household under his original name, Ezra Moreno. Ezra found his place in the army and made a friend in Daniel Schroeder, a positive, if rather naive 19 year old. Upon Daniel's demise, (for which Ezra largely blamed himself), he left the military as a deserter and started his new life under the name Joe Johnson. Up until the events of Mindtraveller, Joe worked as a Janitor at the University of Pittsburgh in Johnstown, Pennsylvania.

## Relationships

#### Merlin

Merlin was, aside from Joe, the only other real adult of the group, which made him a go-to figure in terms of advice and knowledge. Merlin was also the group's foremost authority on magic, and helped Joe when he originally struggled to perform the same type of magic as the other members of the group. Their bond grew to be such that Joe went out of his way to take Merlin with the group in their attempt to escape The End of Time.

#### Maude Pendragon

Throughout the events of Mindtraveller, Joe grew closer to each of his compatriots, but none more than Maude. Through a series of attempts by Joe to curb some of Maude's bad habits, as well as being each other's mutual confidants, Maude and Joe developed a sort of impromptu father-daughter relationship. Though it is unlikely either would admit it, they seem to have had an overall positive impact on each other.
