Description

"Of course, sir, would you like to buy anything else?
... Like, those items you're trying to hide under your jacket?"

- Joshua Fink

Name: Josh Fink
Age: 25
Weapon: Dental Floss/Garrote Wire
Persona: Jomungand, the World Serpent
Arcana: The Star
Team: None currently
Summon: Evoker (Barrel-less Beretta M9)

:bulletgreen: Null: Ice/Poison
:bulletred: Weak: Electricity/Exhaustion

Passive Skills:
:bulletblue: Apt Pupil: Doubles the chance of delivering a Critical Hit.
:bulletblue: Poison Boost: Poison-based attacks are 1.5x more effective.

Skills:
:bulletblack: Poison Skewer: Inflicts a small amount of Physical damage with a chance of Poison on one enemy.
:bulletblack: Virus Wave: Inflicts a large amount of Physical damage with a chance of Poison on all enemies.
:bulletblack: Bufula: Inflicts a moderate amount of Ice damage on one enemy.
:bulletblack: Phys Break: Nullifies an enemy's resistance to Physical for 3 turns.
:bulletblack: Power Charge: The next normal attack, physical skill, or Almighty physical attack will be 2.5 times greater in power. Self.

:bulletblack: Midgard Crusher (Special): Inflicts a moderate amount of physical damage up to three times on all enemies, with even greater damage on targets that are downed.

Strategy:
Heavily physical-oriented offense-type. His tactics revolve around poisoning his targets and then compounding the damage with boosted physical attacks. His high agility means he can avoid most attacks on his own, and is surprisingly durable if he has support to keep him up. His greatest weakness lies in his limited move set - if the opponent has Null Physical, then he's forced to spend turns breaking it or else be reduced to relying on his poison and his single ice move to deal damage. As such, he prefers to learn the weaknesses of his opponents and use items that help turn the battle in his favor.

Symbolism:
:bulletwhite: The Serpent - One of the oldest of mythological symbols, it has served as both positive and negative symbols throughout history. Negatively, they are signs of deceitfulness, defiance, and vindictiveness. On the positive, they are shown as potent guardians of temples and other holy locations - they are known to threaten and hold their ground rather than give way to attackers. They are also seen as emblems of wisdom and keepers of knowledge.

With Fink, this is echoed by his natural intelligence and decent grasp on common sense. Deceitfulness comes naturally, using half-truths with his customers in order to get them to buy things or feigning ignorance when he just doesn't want to deal with them. He is also quite settled in the role of guardian - from his time in the military to being willing to step up to protect his treasure, his friends and family.

:bulletwhite: The Silver Tongue - Mentioning that someone has a silver tongue implies that they are able to clearly and effectively express themselves, or have a clever way with words. These types of individuals tend to be good in dealing in mediating differences and convincing someone to their line of thinking - such as selling on a sale's floor. Being the oldest child, Fink has often had to serve as mediator between the children and the adults, and has found himself stepping between conflicts between friends as well.

:bulletwhite: The Globe - The image of the globe denotes extensive travel and worldliness on the part of the bearer. As a military brat and then a member of the military himself, Fink has been to many places around the world and knows little bits of numerous languages and cultures. The globe encircled by Jormungand has shipping lanes marked in crimson - showing commerce as the the lifeblood of the world as a culture.

:bulletwhite: The Mask - A "mask" is the face you show to the world, a method used to hide one's true feelings for real or imaginary reasons. It's used for personal gain, protection, or to avoid hurting others. Some people may be worthy of seeing you without your mask, and some may never gain that privilege. Having spent so many years using his mask to appear presentable to the masses that never fail to cement his dislike for them, Fink's mask is well-worn and well-used. It should be noted that another term for this mask is a "persona"...

~*~

Bio/Info:
Joshua (or "Fink," as he prefers to be called due to how common his first name is) has been around - serving in the military and with several years of customer service under his belt. Over the years, he has become quite good at donning his customer service "mask," a cheerful and friendly member of society who would like nothing better than help you find that item you're looking to purchase, plus a few others.

Underneath the mask, he is less compatible with the community - mostly due to a disgust at the ignorance and selfishness of the common human being. Customers or people in general that he dislike due to their actions and behavior often have a few sub-vocal insults thrown their way or talked about behind their back with unrestrained venom once they're gone. Still, to their face, he's completely willing to help them find that object whose name they can't quite remember, but they're sure they'll know what it is after they see it.

That's not to say that he's completely acidic - he has an unswerving loyalty to his friends and family, and is genuinely friendly and open with them. He'll brook no mistreatment of them by others, however, and more than willing to step up in their defense. He's willing to assist them in other ways, as well, using his know-how and the wisdom he's gathered thus far to aid in their plights. Worse comes to worse, he's always open to serve as a bent-ear for their worries and complaints.

Once he awakened to his Persona - after making a grumbling comment about Freud having a field day with the imagery - he took to the opportunity to seek employment with a blacksmith shop known as the "Iron Will Armory." He serves as the liaison between the owner - who creates a large portion of the stock - and the customers. Being a Persona User himself, his shop is also the best place to go for other Users to stock on up weapons and gear for their forays during the Dark Hour. He's more than willing to take their money, no questions asked. However, theft is greatly frowned upon and will be dealt with accordingly.
