Mayor Joseph Hurst is the founder of the town of Cresthurst. When he landed alongside the rest of the refuges, he was one of the first to pick up an axe and begin construction of Cresthurst. He was later elected it's mayor and the town named after him. Supposedly he was an avid supporter of the Crowley movement before leaving Gilneas.
Though initially neutral, he opened relations with the Blades of Greymane in Farimond after supplies went missing. After they relieved the Siege of Cresthurst, he pledged himself to the Alliance once more and allowed the Blades to build the outpost of Banehold near Cresthurst.
However, shortly after allowing the Blades to build Banehold, an attempt on his life was made before meeting with Magistrate Arthur Folken of Bridgeport as an attempt to destabilize relations between the settlements of Refuge Cove and the Blades, leaving him unable to assist during the Blades' venture into the Refuge Cove as he recovered.
