5. On an average day, what can be found in your character’s pockets?

A few stray drakes (he keeps the majority somewhere else), crumbs from various treats he’s had to stuff in his pockets (for differing reasons), his pouch of jerky (don’t eat it, it’s people and heavily spiced), and some odds ‘n ends like bits of flint, bones, scraps of parchment, small things that caught his interest in some way. His hands like to hide in his pockets too. It makes his fidgeting a little less obvious.

15. Is your character preoccupied with money or material possession? Why or why not?

J’hasi only likes gold to the extent that it can get him food and a place to sleep, supplies and gear if need be. He’s never had a lot of money until the Nerevarine business, and a majority of it went right to food when he was unsupervised. He’s never liked the idea of gathering up more wealth than is needed to live comfortably, especially when there’s so many who can’t even afford a crust of bread to try and feed themselves.

He’s generous to those who don’t have a whole hell of a lot, if anything, and when he returned to Cyrodiil he was totally the kind of thief that would steal only from rich targets and distribute his ill-gotten gains to those who needed it more than he did. After all, his ‘job’ kept him fed and his gear in decent shape. Getting some food and clothes, even shelter to those who need it is higher priority.

His ‘material possessions’ don’t typically last too long, aside from his spear and a few other assorted things. Only things that have been given to him by people who are important to him are the only things he’ll fight tooth and nail to keep. Otherwise…he’s got a long road ahead of him, and he’s always traveling, so hoarding material possessions isn’t a good idea in the first place, if he was even inclined towards that sort of thing. He tends to lose things in fights and skirmishes too. Or yet another set of clothes when he uh…gets a little too angry.

25. How quick is your character to suspect someone else? Does this change if they are close with that person?

Answered! But speaking of the Thieves Guild…

If you happen to be in the same guild as him, it takes a long, loooong time for him to warm up to guildmates. Especially if it’s a business-related guild. He works on jobs alone when at all possible, and he dislikes people trying to ‘get to know him’ when he has little interest in participating.

He had a sponsor in the Thieves’ Guild who betrayed him after he thought they were friends during a job, and he’s had similar things happen when he agreed to take on contracts with another mercenary/adventurer/etc. Not to mention what happened to the last organization he was in…

He’ll be over here getting his assignments and leaving, kthx. No trusterino to be given out today by this guy.
