Character Notes - Joel's First Page of Notes! (Patreon)

Hey Team,

Now that summer is drawing to a close, here's a ton of info on our most autumnal character, Juno Greenpoint, straight from the man himself, Joel Arnold. Joel's first page of character notes is full of great Juno backstory - if you can make out Joel's incredible cursive. 

Thank you so much for your support!

Joel's handwriting written out (thank you, Catherine Laseter):

+-- lost at 33, now 48

+--Ora, she worked with leather incredibly skillfully - she made my leather jerkin +--we saved enough for a fast horse that could rife between the farm and the village quickly enough I sent my days on the farm and nights in the village w/ Ora 

+--after two years, Ora became pregnant and we decided we would move to the farm for when the child was born. I built her a studio at the farm. She was concerned about not being able to be in the village to trade, but she liked the space and fresh air, and her client base was willing to follow her.

+-+--We lived there with our son Jena for 10 years 

--Orcs: we'd heard some reports of orc in Brixon territory but nothing serious -- when orc attacked the farm. My father fought them and was killed. I fought them and Ora and Jena tried to run. The orcs had some sport and bloodied me but didn't kill me -- they made me watch as the killed Ora and Jena.

+--I was left for dead
