for the dnd ask thing: 2, 3, 6, 11!
2. before they met their party, what was their main goal?
Fuck around and find out.
3. what is their goal right now?
I mean, very much still "fuck around and find out." Joe is fundamentally curiosity-motivated. But more specifically, a couple sessions before we went on hiatus for ten million years we found something out about a fellow party member's backstory that calls for further investigation, and pursuing that merges Joe's two greatest desires: 1) Learn new weird shit you didn't know before, and 2) Love and support your friends. Which segues neatly into:
6. which party member do they relate to the most?
Without hesitation or reservation: Gogah (@zezander), the person whose backstory we just learned something about, who like Joe is an unhinged tween lizard who believes fiercely in her fundamental god-given right to do whatever she wants without adult supervision. Gogah is a lot angrier (and I think less driven by wonder) than Joe and perhaps is more interested in fucking around than she is in finding out but we harmonize well.
11. what skills are they proficient in? why?
Roll20 is glitching on my computer but from memory uhhh...stealth, sleight of hand, deception, I think persuasion, history, arcana, nature. She loves to steal things and commit crimes and learn about ecosystems (including magical ecosystems).
