Denouement. Wrap up.
If our protagonist finally reconciled their character arc - they found what they need rather than chasing what they want - now would be a great time to show them happy in a new, better status quo, the implication being that this one is going to be more permanent.
If their arc resolved tragically - they chased what they wanted and lost everything in the climax - now we focus on them miserable in a new status quo.
If the protagonist didn't resolve their arc at all, what have you been doing all this time?
Characterization - Well-Prepared Polymath
Finally, a chance to use my degree in underwater semiotics.
This Jack of All Trades provides a lot of utility and wears a lot of hats. Their strength lies not in their focus but in their versatility.
Chatting with Misk, you'll quickly discover that they spent a few months as a river-boat captain, one time they met the King, and that they can juggle professionally.
Their home is filled with curios and souveneirs. They've tried everything.
There are a few ways for this to go: sometimes a Misk will seem obscenely overqualified and well prepared for the task at hand. This is a good opportunity to have them fail miserably, establishing the gravity of the situation and putting the ball back in the court of our intrepid heroes.
Sometimes a Misk will seem to have a completely inadequate, abstract, or useless set of abilities and equipment for the task at hand. This is a good opportunity to have each and every one of those abilities pay off.
