===Job Speaks of Wisdom and Understanding===
 28“People know where to mine silver 
and how to refine gold. 
2 They know where to dig iron from the earth 
and how to smelt copper from rock. 
3 They know how to shine light in the darkness 
and explore the farthest regions of the earth 
as they search in the dark for ore. 
4 They sink a mine shaft into the earth 
far from where anyone lives. 
They descend on ropes, swinging back and forth. 
5 Food is grown on the earth above, 
but down below, the earth is melted as by fire. 
6 Here the rocks contain precious lapis lazuli, 
and the dust contains gold. 
7 These are treasures no bird of prey can see, 
no falcon’s eye observe. 
8 No wild animal has walked upon these treasures; 
no lion has ever set his paw there. 
9 People know how to tear apart flinty rocks 
and overturn the roots of mountains. 
10 They cut tunnels in the rocks 
and uncover precious stones. 
11 They dam up the trickling streams 
and bring to light the hidden treasures. 
12 “But do people know where to find wisdom? 
Where can they find understanding? 
13 No one knows where to find it, 
for it is not found among the living. 
14 ‘It is not here,’ says the ocean. 
‘Nor is it here,’ says the sea. 
15 It cannot be bought with gold. 
It cannot be purchased with silver. 
16 It’s worth more than all the gold of Ophir, 
greater than precious onyx or lapis lazuli. 
17 Wisdom is more valuable than gold and crystal. 
It cannot be purchased with jewels mounted in fine gold. 
18 Coral and jasper are worthless in trying to get it. 
The price of wisdom is far above rubies. 
19 Precious peridot from Ethiopia cannot be exchanged for it. 
It’s worth more than the purest gold. 
20 “But do people know where to find wisdom? 
Where can they find understanding? 
21 It is hidden from the eyes of all humanity. 
Even the sharp-eyed birds in the sky cannot discover it. 
22 Destruction and Death say, 
‘We’ve heard only rumors of where wisdom can be found.’ 
23 “God alone understands the way to wisdom; 
he knows where it can be found, 
24 for he looks throughout the whole earth 
and sees everything under the heavens. 
25 He decided how hard the winds should blow 
and how much rain should fall. 
26 He made the laws for the rain 
and laid out a path for the lightning. 
27 Then he saw wisdom and evaluated it. 
He set it in place and examined it thoroughly. 
28 And this is what he says to all humanity: 
‘The fear of the Lord is true wisdom; 
to forsake evil is real understanding.’”

===Appearance===
Kaze moves with an easy, athletic confidence. He is of medium height, about six feet tall, with an athletic build, dark hair and brown eyes. He usually has an alert expression more of interest than threat assessment. In cooler environments he wears a brown leather jacket. When it's warmer, he wears a sleeveless tee.
===Biography===
Born Jacob Shimabukuro, Kaze lives for Hope and Duty. He learned hope from his mother's refusal to give up faith when his father cheated on her and left her alone to die a painful, lingering death from cancer when he was 12. He learned duty and honor from his grieving, octogenarian, maternal grandfather, "The Colonel", who never let him sit around, instead training him to be diligent every day to do whatever could be done, not quitting when a goal seems unfairly unattainable. Jake needed both while he sat out of football, injured for his first two years in college. He drew on his mother's beliefs and hope and his grandfather's commitment to duty and service, battling despair when his scholarship was dropped without finishing college, and when his grandfather died. When he had the Dream, and put his name in the watch tower of the Golden Key, and was inculcated into the order of the Adamantine Arrow, the hope and spiritual beliefs of his mother resonated with the Path of the Obrimos, and the commitment to duty and honor of his grandfather prepared him for righteous service in the Order of the Adamantine Arrow.

===Nimbus===
The sound of rushing wind and flashes of lightning surround Kaze, and his clothes and hair move as if he is in a windstorm.

===Music===
Songs of Kaze's inner life.

===Appearance===
Dirt Nap is medium height and medium to slender build. He appears to be in his early twenties, or somewhere from 19 to perhaps 25. He usually looks a little scruffy and unkempt, though he can clean up decently if he has to do it. His expression tends to be a guileless, slightly intense look just short of a stare. When he speaks, it always seems to surprise himself to hear himself speaking out loud.

===Background===
In 1987 Greg Olsen was in college at the University of Houston when he was diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor. He fought to live and then to die as slowly as possible and in 1988 when his time was about up, he made peace with God and yet still couldn't help fighting to his last breath. Something drew the attention of his Sire who embraced him in the night and took him to the country and taught him self reliance. He learned, but after a while, knew that he had to fight again, to die as slowly as possible, to live as much as possible. His Sire suggested the Ordo Drakul and made an introduction. He studied in different places, and eventually came to Sacramento, looking to practice what he'd learned and learn more from the practice.
