Skills
High Pain Tolerance
By natural ruggedness and hard wasteland life, Joshua has built up a strong tolerance to pain, his usual coping mechanism to treat it with sarcasm and humor.
Eastern Visitor
Joshua is a traveler from the east coast, and made his way across the continental US via hitch hiking with numerous caravans and at times path finding on his own over a 5 year period. He thus has knowledge of the east coast, and of many northern US states he has traveled through.
Small Guns - Expert
Small Guns - Expert
At the age of 28 and having been wielding firearms reasonably since the age of 14, through experience, regular practice, and some natural talent, Joshua is proficient in the use of common firearms, though without professional training.
Energy Weapons - Beginner
Energy Weapons - Beginner
Joshua has, on the rare occasion he's been forced to, fired and operated an energy weapon, and thus has a common beginner level understanding of how they handle. However, these 'space guns' are considered by him to be unwieldy, too complicated, and plain weird.
Unarmed - Skilled
Unarmed - Skilled
A brawler when he has to be, Joshua has taken part in numerous bouts of fisticuffs for many, many reasons, from simple bar fights to punches thrown over insults to brutal self defense when no other weapons are available and more.
Melee Weapons - Novice
Melee Weapons - Novice
Any melee weapon is the last line of defense for Joshua, whom prefers to end fights quickly and usually from the right end of a gun. That said, he's been forced to the last line of defense position numerous times, and has therefor a familiarity with melee weapons higher than a total beginner and lower than someone who's actually bothered to use melee weapons specifically.
Explosives - Beginner
Explosives - Beginner
Joshua understands the basic fundamentals of explosives. Pull the pin or light the fuse, and you've got only a small amount of time before things go haywire. His very basic familiarity with explosives is the product of his odd job to odd job lifestyle, wherein every once in awhile he's hired to blow something up.
First Aid - Beginner
First Aid - Beginner
One doesn't travel far without understanding the basics of first aid. Disinfect, prevent bleeding, try to remove anything that isn't suppose to be inside you best you can. Joshua is by no means a doctor, or even a combat medic, but treating his own wounds basically when no one else is available to has given him a basic understanding of first aid. He's also read back of a first aid kit box once, which was very informative and would've been more so were it not for it's use of too many big words.
Repair - Skilled
Repair - Skilled
In the wasteland, things are constantly breaking. In order to be even remotely self sustaining one should understand how to tape things back together, something which Joshua would fancy himself talented in. This typically extends to repairing firearms, usually his own, after they've broken, a skill he's learned from being forced to tend to his own equipment while on the road.
Survival - Expert
Survival - Expert
A pathfinder, traveler, outdoors man and even self proclaimed explorer, Joshua has traveled not only across much of the length of the east coast, but also across the continental United States, and down across much of the west coast as well. Almost as much of this travel has been done entirely alone as has been done with caravaners, giving Joshua numerous survival and wilderness skills.

Inventory
.308 Hunting Rifle
A typical .308 rifle known by wastelanders by the very very broad term of 'hunting rifle'. In the pre war world this rifle would've been known as a Winchester Model 70, though just about everyone, including Joshua know it simply as 'a hunting rifle'. It's in serviceable condition, though only by wasteland standards. A gun aficionado from the pre war world would cringe over the state of the rifle, rusted, battered, mostly taped and wired together. This however is par for the course by wasteland standards.

.45 Pistol
An old government model Colt 1911 A1 known usually as just a .45 pistol. Like the hunting rifle, it's in serviceable condition only by the standards of the wasteland.

Trench Knife
Favored by some soldiers of the pre-war military, this model of knife is a combination between a typical combat knife and a set of spiked brass knuckles. It is both a useful tool and a reserve weapon.
Wasteland Leathers
Joshua's typical getup consists of some hardy travel clothing, good for protection from the elements and for surviving long periods of travel. This usually means heavy hiking boots, jeans or pants of a similarly tough material, and a leg length tough jacket made of leather or a similarly tough material. These outer pieces of clothing, (the pants and jacket) are protected by sewn on strips of tough post war leather made of bramin hide intended to defend against the bites of wasteland animals. This includes strips covering the shins and more sparsely the thighs, knee pants, elbow pads, shoulder pads, and trips covering the forearms.
Portable Holotape Player
A simple device similar to an ancient cassette player, the Portable Holotape Player is a small rectangular device which can play the audio of holotapes through a plugged in device such as speakers or headphones. Joshua owns this device with a small set of holotape albums featuring some of the most popular music from the pre war period, as well as a small portable set of headphones to listen to them with.
