PERSONALITY JJ - please for the love of god, call her JJ or Jo and not Joanna - is a reckless creature. She is one of those people who jumps out of airplanes, and drives fast just to feel alive. However, she is also a person who believes in structure, and rules and order. This is one of the reasons the army appealed to JJ. She always knew what was expected of her and how to exceed expectations. JJ likes to be good at things, she was not one of those girls who pretended she didn’t know the answer in school, if she knew it you bet her hand was in the air. And nine times out of ten she knew the answer.
In a crisis, JJ is the person you want around. She makes decisions efficiently and excellently. JJ is the kind of person you describe as capable. She just handles stuff. There really is no better way to put it. Going on a vacation? JJ will call all the cabs and book the room. Need a gun handling class taught? JJ has got that shit. During her time in the army, JJ saw a lot of shit and honestly very little phases her anymore. There are few jokes to crude or off color for her, and you don’t have to worry about JJ’s delicate female ears.
JJ is sarcastic and can throw out a great one liner. She has a tendency to complain more than the average person - though it’s generally about mundane things such as the weather, or her joints or how the heel of her boot is killing her foot. Some people might think of her a Debbie Downer with the complaining, but JJ is really just a bit my cynical than most. She doesn’t err on the side of believing people and is more of a sceptic.
As for romantic relationships - JJ has had very few of note. She is a tough girl, one who doesn’t depend on others and that can be hard for people. JJ values the friendships in her life, but she’s that friend who might just fall off the face of the planet for a month but she doesn’t mean anything by it she is just terrible at checking in. Despite her toughness - JJ has seen some shit, and she can connect with others who have had the same experience in a way that surprises others.
HISTORY JJ was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on November 22. Her mother was a nineteen year old crack addict, and JJ was surrendered to the state as soon as she was born. Her mother used during the whole pregnancy, but luckily JJ was unscathed in that, though she had to be treated for addiction, she did not have any lasting mental or physical effects. She was entered in to the foster system and would spend the next eighteen years of her life shuffled between families. Normally babies are adopted rather quickly, but JJ was not so lucky. She lived with a total of 12 foster families while she was in the system. Not because she was bad, but because she ended up falling through the cracks most times.
One place where JJ did not fall through the cracks was in school. Despite her numerous moves and school changes, JJ was always an exceptional student. Reading was an escape for her, and even more than that learning was a way to better herself. She graduated in the top ten of her high school class and got a full scholarship to The University of Pittsburgh. Four years later JJ graduated with her BS, and then she did a sort of crazy thing - JJ joined the Army. Except it wasn’t that crazy of a thing for the girl who craved structure. JJ spent 8 years in the army retiring with the rank of Specialist. JJ was deployed several times - and she saw a lot of things when she was deployed.
JJ had planned to make the army her career - she had planned to spend her whole life in the army, however just as she was preparing to reenlist she suffered a debilitating bout of depression and rethought her choices. JJ was honorable discharged followig 8 years of service. After a few months of putzing around, JJ decided that she would join the PA State Police - she was just about to enter the academy when they began the evacuations. So she went, and she has been working as a watcher - which is very similar since. --
DISTINGUISHING MARKS JJ has a random assortment of small scars from childhood accidents and other daily living. She has several tattoos - a black and white minimalistic pine tree on her left wrist, an owl on her forearm above the tree, and the quote "the bright day is done and we are for the dark" below her right collarbone.
