<br />
==History==<br />
Joseph was born to a Republic Armed Forces father and a Nova Cat Elemental mother in the Republic of the Sphere. His father died shortly after he entered a Nova Cat sibko. He joined [[Galaxy Commander]] [[Kev Rosse]]'s [[Spirit Cats]] faction sometime before or shortly after the Blackout. Despite his [[freeborn]] status, he made the rank of [[Star Captain]] in [[Omicron Cluster (Clan Protectorate)|Omicron Cluster]], and led the Cluster's [[Thunder Cats]] Trinary by 3133. He met and fell in love with [[Malisa Nova Cat]], a fellow [[freeborn]] warrior in the [[Shiva Keshik (Clan Protectorate)|Shiva Keshik]]. She transferred to his Trinary following the matrimony. He was dispatched to [[Zollikofen]] on a [[Haven Quest]] in 3133, where he encountered a group of [[Stormhammers]] who had gotten possession of the Trinary's irreplaceable [[Cave Lion]] [[BattleMech]]. He made an unorthodox bid of a game of chess over the fate of the [[Cave Lion]], offering up his own [[Hellstar]] as a prize. Despite nearly winning the bid, he was betrayed by his Star Commander [[Moxica]] whose hatred of [[freeborn]] warriors led to him launching an unsanctioned attack on the [[Stormhammers]]. The Stormhammers rallied and defeated the attack, before intimidating the Spirit Cats from attacking a second time. Before leaving [[Zollikofen]], he swore he would return and reclaim the [[Cave Lion]] for his [[Clan]].<br />
<br />
Joseph was a Christian due to his father's rearing and found it difficult to reconcile his [[Inner Sphere]] and [[Clan]] heritages. He hesitated to kill unless absolutely necessary, which made other Clansmen think less of him.<br />
<br />
==BattleMech==<br />
Joseph piloted a [[Hellstar]] [[BattleMech]]. It's nickname is unknown. It's user passcode comes from the Gospel of Matthew 6:24.<br />
