Amejisuto

The First Entrepreneur, the wizards of The Crystal Highlands of Armaria call them, always with a slight shake of their heads. Legend says Amejisuto arrived not with a spellbook, but with a flawless business plan and a briefcase full of bamboo. They were laughed out of every fortress. During one particularly harsh winter, they found themself shivering in a cave next to the stoic beast slayer, Yuki. While Yuki calmly sharpened their blade, Amejisuto's holographic display flickered with plummeting stock prices for 'premium alpine splinters.' Desperate, they offered Yuki a joint venture opportunity. The offer was met with silence. Their fame only began when they discovered their bamboo, when snapped, made a satisfying 'pop.' Their face has been stuck in that expression of shock ever since they sold their first 'Stress-Relief Stick' for a pouch of gold.
