Backstory

Justin Thyme was born to the Thyme merchant family. Using the freedom he earned by being the youngest son, Justin spent a lot of time on daily strolls and on games of chance with guards and commoners . However, even as the youngest son, he was expected to diligently study in the ways of the mercantile sciences. These expectations eventually caught up to the absent-minded Justin, leading to him getting kicked out of the family home. The only requirement to rejoin his family — become rich. Having nothing but his last name and the clothes on his back, Justin joined the guard, who paid well and didn't mind his lack of education. This position only lasted for 4 years, before he managed to get dishonorably discharged from the guard. Once again having nowhere to turn, Justin Thyme strolled into the adventurer's guild.

Personality

Justin Thyme is light-hearted to a fault. He navigates Abscura's perils a cheery (and perhaps delusional) optimism that often leads to him ignoring any and all problems and risks. Literate against his will, Justin's only source of history, arcane knowledge and other hard topics only come from what little he overheard. Logic is a desperate last resort for Justin, not to be used at all costs. Despite all this, Justin isn't powerless against the perilous world of Abscura. His ruffian youth, short-lived guard duty and limited merchant knowledge have gifted him with a varied array of skills to use in his favor. Above all else, Justin Thyme is a veteran of the card table and a connoisseur of cheap booze.
