Franklin "Jok" Ferguson is a primary character from The Severis Tales.
Biography
Franklin was born in Peyton Sound. He is Xiveer Severis' childhood and best friend. After growing up and splitting apart, Franklin decided to join the Merchant's Guild to become a travel. Years later, he reunited with Xiveer. After quitting the Merchant Guild, he settled into a number of odd jobs, before settling on his true dream of being a crop farmer in Barlett.
During his travels, he encountered Leena Rosewater, and the two became friends. In 1082, he introduced her to Xiveer during a chance meeting between them.
Franklin's middle name is "Jok," which both Leena and Xiveer affectionately refer to him as. The origin of the name is a closely guarded secret between the three of them.
Before the Severises settled in Barlett, Franklin had purchased a sizable plot of land on Pine Street, and he began his operations as a farmer of maize and corn, Ferguson Farmstead, a profitable business venture that makes him an important figure in Barlett and the surrounding area. He usually runs the farm himself, which Leena thought would kill him sooner than later. Often, he uses volunteers to help harvest crops or maintain the fields.
Physical Description
Franklin is a well-built man who takes to the stereotypical flannel and flat cap outfits; but he will wear straw hats in the summer. He is very strong.
Peronality and Habits
Franklin is calm in nearly every situation, no matter how stressful. He is quick to point out flaws in other people's plans, including Xiveer's. Like when they were children, he and Xiveer get up to porjects or other things that ultimately come at the disapproval and lecture from either Leena or Mila.
As such are good friends to the Severises, when Franklin goes back home during Erandor, he gives them full access to his rustic house, which they make use of every year.

Franklin's family is not mentioned or heard of (as of yet).
