BACKGROUND
------------------------------
Among citizens of the Veskorium and to a lesser degree the vesk living in the Pact Worlds, Yoromishtali is known for being a student in a martial arts training show. His great aunt, Avdikesh, was “the master” and broadcast her training Yoromishtali and his five clutchmates in the vesk martial art of wielding the doshko. From the age of six to sixteen, Yoromishtali spent nearly ninety minutes each day in a martial arts studio learning how to fight with a doshko. Each day was streamed live, and each week’s footage was edited together for a sixty minute summation of the week’s failures and successes. Yoromishtali liked being filmed more than some of his other clutchmates. He wasn’t the most accomplished or naturally gifted of the group, but he was dedicated to his training.

Upon becoming an adult, he journeyed to the Pact Worlds to create a show exploring cultures through combat. He interviews non-vesk where they talk about the history and development of martial arts and weapons as well as the surprising intersections with food, clothing, customs, and rituals. Yoromishtali also interviews vesk who have fought against that episode’s martial art style. Each episode culminates in a fight between him and a master of that style.

Yoromishtali hatched on Vesk-3. At the age of eight he moved to Tabrid Minor. His mother was a member of the military’s diplomatic corps. He decided to not join the military because he wanted to freedom to explore other cultures at his own pace (and interest).

Living on Absalom for the past two years, Yoromishtali has made twelve videos. His first video was about the kasathas, followed by the half-orcs, the Orrians, the verthani, the pahtras, the shobhad, and others. He’s doing the initial production work for videos with humans, lashuntas, halflings (a nice counterpoint to the shobhad episode he hopes), and a trip to some battleflower monasteries on Triaxis.

Unfortunately the new video project isn’t as popular as his childhood one. In fact, he is losing money on it. The producers he thought he acquired have disappeared. In an effort to continue the videos, Yoromishtali began teaching the doshko six months ago. His clients are mostly vesk but he does offer classes for children of all species. He also creates a doshko-focused video show with two ten minute episodes a week. They’re more spontaneous and simply filmed. Besides detailing combat techniques, the show also showcases the creation and maintenance of doshkos, the various manufacturers, and history of the weapon and famous doshko-wielding warriors.
