Mental characteristics
Personal history
Joe's Dreamers are a pair of street kids he's taken under his wing, Rick and Helena. A pair of high school dropouts trying to make it in the big city.
He met them on a semi drunken night out after having a frustrating night of botched experiments and projects about to get jumped in an alley, Joe stepped in wanting to take out some aggression and apparently the riding leathers and sledgehammer (plague buster) were enough to scare em off.
Partly to help sober up and partly to help out a pair of idiot kids, he bought them a meal at a nearby diner and they got to talking, Joe found out that Helena wants to work on fashion and Rick is pretty handy with a wrench. Long story short; Joe's helping them get their GEDs and has them as his mundane apprentices for his workshop.

Social
Family Ties

Hobbies & Pets
Gloria, Chimerical Drake
Gloria is a candy apple red drake, handcrafted and hand painted by Joe after wanting to prove to a few naysayers that he could make a fully functioning chimerical vehicle. Unfortunately, he succeeded and the project got away from him in more ways than one. What was supposed to be a cool motorcycle ended up becoming a mechanical drake that could turn INTO a motorcycle. To Joe's chagrin, Gloria is an ornery machine at the best of times. Despite making sure that she has no true will of her own and not being a true golem, she almost seems to have a mind of her own... To the unenchanted; Gloria is perceived as a custom chopper with a metal dragon skull as the housing for the headlight.Gloria

He may not be perfect, but he's been able to keep above water. The extra money from the short story submissions and a better reputation as a mechanic/craftsman landing him more commissions have given him a steady stream of income.
