Joppa

Joppa was a human fisherman and monk who was active as an adventurer in and around Waterdeep in the late 15 century DR.

Possessions
Joppa's attire was humble and reflected his dual life as a fisherman and a monk. In battle, he was known to wield fishing implements, notably harpoons and even fishing rods.

He also possessed several magic items, including a ring of free action, an obsidian steed, an Ioun stone of absorbtion, and Daren's instant fortress.

History
Joppa was trained in the use of ki at a monastery near Saltmarsh, a seaside town on Oerth. At some point, he traveled to Toril and lost his sense of adventure, instead working on fishing ships and mastering the use of the fishing rod. One day while on the Sea of Swords, he was attacked by a kraken and barely escaped. The experience taught him that his skills in fishing were as mighty as his skills in martial arts, and this discovery renewed his sense of adventure.

By the late 15 century DR, Joppa was working as an adventurer, and served Open Lord Laeral Silverhand of Waterdeep to help keep her city and its environs safe.
