OCCUPATION: sports (p.e) teacher/extreme sportist
EXPERTISE: any adrenline filled sport
travelling
WEALTH: not much
PROUDEST MOMENT: he doesn't really have one - he isn't proud of himself, but he would probably say he's proud of his mum for raising him as a kid by herself.
MOST EMBARRASSING MOMENT: similarly to his proudest moment, he doesn't tend to get embarrassed easily. he can sing badly or well in front of people, lose or win a contest, fall over, get knocked down, get turned away by people or women and he just shrugs it off with a grin.

joel was born a bastard child, but he never that change things. his mother had an affair with a married man who had a whole family already - she was strung along like a fool and left dangling when she was knocked up. joel's father wanted nothing to do with his son or the woman he had claimed to love, but joel's mother picked herself up and managed regardless as a single mother. joel was not an easy child. free-spirited and hard to pin down he was never naughty and always smiling but he rarely understood the word 'no'. he was always toddling off and exploring, going places he shouldn't, never able to sit still. his mother had him tested for adhd but apparently he just had itchy feet.
growing up didn't change things, he went to school most of the time but had the kind of friends that would follow him anywhere and even encourage, and when he had the ideas to leave school grounds to go exploring a place he'd seen that looked cool or interested - old houses - abandonned ruins - lost tracks - off he went. his grades suffered but he just about scraped through with passes. he didn't want to bother with uni, but his mother nudged him that way for the sake of it. only bothering with a couple of years, joel went for something he knew he would enjoy - sports. aside from his love of adventure, he absolutely loved being busy and active, trying everything under the sun and finding a love of adrenline. he often came home - past curfew - with cut knees or scrapes and even the occasion broken or dislocated bone. it never stopped him.
as soon as he passed his teaching degree, joel left home. with only the money in his pocket, he took a backpack and went travelling. he spent years living off the land, living off the money he made from fly-away jobs, meeting all kinds of people. he got himself in trouble plenty of times, though only thought it dire enough to call home a handful of times, he rekindled a relationship with one of his half brothers - kyle - when travelling across america. he didn't stick around long but kept in touch following this. eventually he joined kyle in hickstead, many years later. he lied and said he needed to settle down, but in actual fact he'd gotten himself in trouble and had been on the run, wanting to lie low (accidentally mixed in with a drug cartel and fucked things up for them without meaning to). he picked up a job at the university and popped back off to travel in degrees when he was sure everything had settled back down for himself - finding he liked settling a little now he was older.
