Joseph

Joseph is the mayor of Jhelom in Ultima VII. Beside his political activities, he also is a fighter of the city, loving its wildness.

The Avatar met him in Ultima VII, when travelling to Jhelom to see master DeSnel. Joseph admitted that he was somewhat young for such a important post, but that his work wasn't so difficult. He showed great love for the art of fighting and was found on the training ground every day, honing his combat skills. He explained, that the duels in the city during that time were duels of honor, and not to the death. He also gave the Avatar information about the Library of Scars and some other things in the city, like the betting on fights.

When the situation with Sprellic was mentioned, Joseph revealed that he was unsettled by these events but had little leverage to intervene, or it would break the silent agreement between the city government and the Fighters, which had helped to govern the city.
