Joseph Banks

Joseph Banks is a character in Mini-Grand 5107

Biography:
Joseph has lived on the streets since he ran away from home at age 16. He spent most of his time panhandling in New York, playing his guitar for money, until he found the couch. It was in surprisingly good condition for a dumpster find, and he took it with him to spruce up his little hideaway under an overpass. Then he ran into a crazy investigator-dude who started telling him about these eldritch horrors and demonic elder gods. He found truth in these rumors after he was almost eaten by a Shoggoth. He spent a couple weeks fighting these creatures, surviving by being very lucky in combat, until he was pulled into a portal to another reality. Riding his couch. He landed in a cave, and was found by a party of "adventurers", who he followed in their quest to defeat a dark wizard. He discovered his ridiculously mild psionic abilities (seriously, he can only use telekinesis, and can only lift objects smaller than three pounds) after he was held in place by the wizard for use as a sacrifice to hold open a portal to hell. He dropped a vial of acid on the wizard's head. Joe had to jump through the portal on his couch to flee the collapsing tower, and ended up in the grim dark future of the 41st century. He hopped around universes for a while, surviving through pure luck alone.

Description:
About 45 years old, unshaven, unwashed, in an insane combination of clothing styles: a Red Sox cap, a tattered silvery jumpsuit, a blue blazer, an old sword on his work belt, a pair of poofy renaissance pants, and some Roman sandals. He is almost insane from all of the switching of realities, and relies on his luck to get him through EVERYTHING. He will never back down from a fight. Even if he is definitely going to lose.

Items/Abilities:
Insanely mild TK, a very rusty sword, a couch in surprisingly good condition, a bass guitar, and a good assortment of nonfunctional junk from all eras and genres. And ridiculous combat luck. Like, throw a bottle of booze and end up killing twelve giant alien insects and collapsing an overpass onto another half dozen luck - "losing" for him usually means getting thrown through a portal of some sort.
