Joka is a reserved and soft-spoken individual who has a direct and straightforward approach to life.

## **History**

### **Backstory**

Joka's life had been a tranquil and dream-filled existence in the realm of the dragon king, until a sudden storm of change shattered his peace. One fateful day, while on his way home, he was jolted by the resounding roar of a young and gravely wounded drake. Driven by compassion, he attempted to heal the creature's injuries, but his powers proved inadequate. Desperate for aid, he called out for help, but nobody came to their rescue.

In an act of euthanasic mercy, he made the heart-wrenching decision to end the dragon's suffering. Yet, in the midst of this solemn moment, a group of people emerged from the shadows, accusing him of murder. Despite his earnest attempts to explain and reason with them, they turned a deaf ear to his pleas, pushing him into a state of panic. Overwhelmed, he fled from the scene.

Seeking support and understanding, Joka reached out to certain higher authorities who were already aware of the situation. However, to his dismay, they too accused him of the crime and swiftly apprehended him. At the subsequent trial, Joka openly admitted to ending the young drake's life as an act of mercy, but his words fell on skeptical ears. The judge, holding the power of the final verdict, had to weigh the conflicting accounts and evidence.

Despite the passionate defense of his actions, some still doubted Joka's intentions. The judge, torn between the views of opposing sides, ruled that the aspiring Dragonaut, while perhaps unable to defeat the young drake on his own, was not entirely free of suspicion. Regrettably, they sentenced him to exile, forever banishing him from the land of the dragon king. Crushed dreams spurred him on a path of redemption and revenge, where he vowed to seek justice and reclaim his honor.
