Francis "Paw Paw" Farley is a folk musician, a banjoist, and a sometime moonshiner, someone who's lived in the deep swamps and the bayous that make the south so very nearly impassable. He commands a nearly endless variety of wise folksy sayings, folk songs, and deep knowledge of how to survive off the land in the swamps.

Personal history
Paw Paw is actually only 20 or so--it's hard to know for sure when you don't have a family history that involves a deep interest in calendars or formal education--but he wears a grey false walrus mustache and thick gold-rimmed spectacles which are purely ornamental, as part of his persona as a wise folk singer and musician.
Forty years ago, as Paw Paw tells it, he waited all night at a crossroads and sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for learning how to pick a banjo. What fame he has accrued in the swamps down south--and he has much, much less fame than he thinks he deserves or pretends to expect--is because he plays the only banjo anyone's ever heard. Banjos sounding as they do, no one else especially wants to figure out how to make one for themselves and they're content to let him play the Devil's Lute.
