He lives by his own devices and makes a his living in the clubs and nightplaces of the city's nightlife. He's a drug dealer, anything you want he can get... And most things he has available. He is carefull about his clientelle, and mostly sells to regulars that he has known for a while. He makes a decent living and rarely touches the stuff himself, an occasional line of coke snorted off some hottie's bare chest. He had started as little more than a street thug, intimidating and the occasional robbery or mugging. He also had a proclivity for knives, not only learning from a member of one of the Chinese Triad gangs how to use one in a fight, he mastered the game of "knife roulette" splaying the fingers of his left hand and dancing the point of a knife through the gaps slowly moving faster and faster. From the age of 14 he was an expert with the knife, he mastered most any bladed weapon from the saber to the rapier, but the slashing knives, often one in each hand, was his favorite, and the street folks started calling him "Blade". He made a lot of friends on the street, and eventually one of New Orleans' "made men" came to him and proposed a "business relationship", he would provide Josh with high grade drugs, speed, cocaine, and even heroin at cut rate prices, in return Josh sold for a huge profit, and had to kick 10% up... But it was easy sure money... ANd Josh learned how to keep himself out of trouble by only selling to established clientelle, and he didn't do the stuff himself. He's pretty hooked up with the scene, but only a few know he deals, but almost everyone knows "The Blade" and it's a rare visit to certain rowdy bars that he's not asked to play roulette with his knife.
