Ofanim of Fire
You can't start a fire without a spark Bruce Springsteen, "Dancing In The Dark"
Joss is always moving, as befits his Choir. There's always another person to inspire, a plan to plot, an idea to spark and a revolution to start.
Appearance
Joss appears on the Corporeal realm as a man of average height. His long-ish hair is firey red as a homage to his patroness Gabriel, a private joke he's sure nobody understands. He hasn't the strong build you associate with bikers. Instead, he is a thin man in taut shape and a jovial smile. The blue of his eyes sparkle when he orates and inspires.
Joss' bike is never far from him and is sturdy speedmonster whose scarlet hues match his hair.
Joss is, just Joss, riding around in Los Angeles and talking to people. He doesn't know them, really, but he really wants to get know them. He just doesn't have time for everything. He took the name for his current vessel as a tribute to Joss Whedon, creator of great television, and Josh Homme, singer ang guitarist of Kyuss, one of his favorite bands. Their constant driving bass-lines and sprawling solos resonate within him.
Character
This particular bringer of Fire takes the word in a metaphorical sense. His job is to inspire people, and as a nice side-effect, to be inspired by them. He has many ideas and tries to tell them to everybody who will listen and two or three beside them, as well. He wants to generate as much passion as possible. Of course, these passions can have negative consequences. Joss doens't care about that let's first see some passion, then we'll see what happens okay? People are often apathic these days, moaning about the futility of it all, and Joss won't have any of that.
He likes being in Los Angeles, City of Dreams. Of course, for every movie maker with a dream there are ten who just make a wage turning out turpid crap, but that's just the way. Oh shiney, look what this girl has thought of.
There's one of Gabriel's tasks that Joss doesn't really care for: punishment of the cruel. Not one to dwell on things, Joss will mete out the swiftest way of punishment possible and then move on.
I like smoke and lightning
Heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind
And the feelin' that I'm under
