Joseph Manse was a terrorist who lived during the late Sixth Age. As leader of an internet fan group, he used crowd-funding sites and word of mouth to raise a huge amount of capitol, ostensibly to build a themed destination resort space station. Using the project as cover, he constructed a large, armed fleet, with the intentions of attacking The Caucuses on Gleskel Core.
Early Life
Joe was born on Eutra Colony, an experimental prototype community owned by the Gudersnipe Foundation. As a child, Joe was severely overweight and preformed poorly in school(even by Eutra standards). He had a very strong gift for mathmatics and could read much beyond his age level, but otherwise received failing marks in every subject. Even those subjects he was strong at he often did poorly in, due to failing to turn in assignments or not taking tests on time.
As a teenager he began to focus more heavily on extra-curricular activities than academics, founding and running several clubs at the school. He grades went from passing a few subjects to passing none, as he placed all his energy in his leisure activities. He was a fan of many different fictional works, and his clubs were all based around these.
At eighteen, he was formally dismissed from school as a student, but allowed to continue running the clubs(Eutra colony was designed as a money-less utopia, so he was not being paid). Teachers at the school described him as charismatic, driven, and an efficient organizer. His club activities were restricted to just two hours a day as part of after-school programs, but he was known to spend anywhere from twelve on up to eighteen hours a day, setting up activities and gathering supplies.
However, at the age of twenty-three, Joe was accused of inappropriate behavior with several of the female students at the school, and summarily dismissed from Eutra Colony. Finding himself now in a regular GS Town, Joe did not fair well. While he was certainly well-familiar with the concept of money, he had not completed his education and had no marketable skills.
