Introduction
Basically this article from The Onion in human form (thanks to WhoopingCrane), Joel is a Virtual Adept. He's a cyberpunk, but you can probably tell the mundane part of that just from looking at him or from talking to him for two seconds. Brash to the point of self-parody, he sticks out in a crowd -- but at least he's aware of it.
He showed up in town a while ago, with a strong Bostonian accent to match his personality. His past is rather hazy, but his present is well-advertised: the guy is everywhere on social media if anyone plugs in his name, and the deeper layers of the digital world might well reveal more. So far, California doesn't quite suit him, but it's possible very few places in the offline world would.

"I'm playing go; [non-Technomancers are] playing chess; [Sorcerers are] playing checkers; the Sleepers are still stuck figuring out the rules for Candyland."
Someone to Joel: You get a lot of mileage out of your personality, don't you?"
Joel: "You can't imagine the mileage. From here to LA in seconds flat."
Hooks
- Computers/Tech: Self-explanatory. He's a Virtual Adept; that Trinary deck has gotta be somewhere, after all.
- Throwback: Joel's fashion sense and general demeanor might seem like they're from another time. He's not anachronistic so much as he is consciously picking up the vibe of earlier cyberpunks and living within that ethos (Eccentric Appearance and Airhead flaws -- people might well have trouble taking him seriously upon first appearance).
- Daredevil: Need someone to have an impromptu drinking contest with? Joel won't turn down a calculated risk.
- Dogged by Fringe Media: Do you read weird shit on the Dark Web? You might have heard his name. Make it further into the Digital Web? Let's talk.
