Stickjocks are the people who live and breathe [[fighting]]. They think of nothing else (except perhaps locating the closest deposit of [[alcohol]] after they have finished fighting).

He's the type of person who sits at work all day plotting [[war scenario]]s or [[tactics]], can always be found with [[duct tape]] in his posession, and has many claims to fame with ruining ovens and deep fryers after attempts to [[wax]] harden [[leather]] leg armour and [[vambraces]]. |
