Legacy of Kain Wiki:Joseph

Joseph was an unseen, yet named, minor human character mentioned in Blood Omen 2.

Joseph was likely a Peasant NPC, who had formerly owned a shop in Meridian and suffered from rheumatism. When he "lost his shop" he was forced; despite his disadvantage to join the Sarafan Order as a guard (without being thoroughly checked) and was sent out to deal with "bandit attacks" (most likely the attacks in the Canyons) - an activity he was not expected to return from. Nevertheless him joining the Sarafan ensured that "his Marjorie" (presumably his wife) would recieve his pay and thus be able to get "passage to her sister's".

In Chapter 3:The Lower City, Kain passed two peasant NPC's discussing Joseph's whereabouts and the sacrifice that he had made for Marjorie. The peasants concluded that Joseph was "a brave man".
