I am fairly confident in stating that of all the Jokka I've met, Keshul is the smartest in terms of sheer, raw intelligence. He's also a creature of habit and much prefers a life of quiet routine to excitement or change. He begins life as not just an atheist, but not a follower of any philosophy; while the former's not rare, to not be a part of any of the competing more "humanist" philosophies is. But Keshul is not a follower. He prefers to be left alone.
