Old Joshy

""Our ancestors grew legs - we'll grow gills.""

Old Joshy, also referred to as Uncle Joshy or Ol' Uncle Joshy, is a charlatan who joins the Founders on their beach settlement. He is first noted by the community when he opens "Ol’ Joshy’s Training Ground for Psychic Soldiers Against Blink Sharks", causing the community to hold a discussion. However, the community decides that the "Joshy problem" will "likely resolve itself". He gains support from Enos Clackelroy, son of Mint Clackelroy, after the latter's death by blink shark. By mid-autumn, Joshy declares his shark-fighting mission a success as the blink sharks have left the region. He then renovates the school into a Bathhouse interior design shop.

After the migration to Founders' Wake, he and his misanthropic followers move into a region at the base of the Forecastle, renaming it "Joshy's Knuckle". There, one can hire psychic shark warriors or purchase seasonings, decorations, and possibly illicit goods such as Grotto, provided that one has enough of Joshy's personal currency, lux.
