Appearance:
Standing at five foot six, Jos isn't short but there certainly are some that are taller than she. Happily on the taller side of the middle of the road heights, there's no compulsion to wear high heels to fit in with the average height, a concept she'd truly hate. She weighs not much more than 130 pounds, a curvy and totally feminine bodice of slim stature and a rather small waist. She's pretty and always has been since her early years, the days of childhood bullies and awkward social statuses. Her fisique is slender but agile, somewhat light, even for her family. There is a fragility to even a simple glance over the woman's frame, something that has never departed from her since childhood and possibly what makes her so alluring to others.Personality:
Natural honey blonde locks flow down the woman's back in her natural curly demeanor, but occasionally her hair can be seen straight, but make no mistake her natural hair style are millions of delightful chilish curls. She has pale milky hued skin, the type that doesn't tan well and in fact, she doesn't like the sun for each and every time she spends and amount of time in it, she gets sunburnt. Jos has the gift of a rather innocent appearence, delicate and pure and in fact the final is true. Her features are overwhelmed by striking azure eyes that are the first of her features to catch your attention due to an odd brightness they seem to have but yet Jos doesn't like the simplicity of her eyes and would rather have rings of other colours in her irises, the gift other people have she'd adore for herself. Tattoos are something Jos hates, and for that reason she has none, nor does she like piercings which is explainable by the lack of them anywhere besides her ears, for earrings, y'know. Jos doesn't have any scars, not that she's aware of anyway, but her light coloured skin is relatively clean of scarred tissue and she strives to keep it that way.
SELFLESS: Jos is the kind of woman to think of herself last, a trait that had caused her to sometimes become worse off and need help on the odd occasion, but she's incredibly generous and happily does things for nothing. Of course, she adores getting things in return but she never asks for them outwardly. However, no one is totally selfless and despite wanting to, if you are someone outside of Cry Wolf High and she doesn't know you, Jos is frankly to afraid of helping you. The past and all that, she has a photographic memory which has proven to be a pain for her sometimes.History:
HALLUCINATIONS: The past was rough for her and there are many moments of it she cannot forget and tend to haunt her mind so to speak but while some of these hallucinations can be chilling for Jos, she frequently has hallucinations of her fae mother and has grown to be able to act as if it doesn't happen. She views these as a helping hand from her mother during her classes, occasionally hearing her voice in some distant memory. However Jos can get particularly frightening hallucinations that will drive fear back into her so heavily that she is likely to crumble down into a pit of self-doubt and is forever worried of something like this happening in one of her classes.
PROTECTIVE: Jos is very protective over her family (what's left of it) and her students especially from things such as haunting memories like she has and tries to make it clear she's a shoulder to cry on for them no matter what race they are. She secretly wants someone to protect her but Jos never dreams of voicing this - it's simply to selfish in her mind to ask. This fae seeks to create student-teacher relationships where they retain the traditional respect yet are a shoulder to cry on if need be for each other, a respectful friendship if you will. Knowing that the school would frown upon it, Jos tries to keep this low-key, this goal of hers, but she knows the feeling many students have from her days as a school girl.
PATIENT: Being a teacher, patience is a must, and Jos has an entire storeload of it. She is willing to give up almost all her free time to assist students, even those who learn at an incredibly slow pace. Also with late work, Jos bends the rules to within an inch of snapping to help her students and sometimes they do take advantage of her and she knows this, but for some reason, seems unwilling to make that change.
TOLERANT: Despite being wary of humans, Jos is willing to treat them no different to supernaturals and really disapproves of those who alienate them for the reason of them having no powers. All in all, she feels kind of bad for them for having no powers and tries to make it known that she'll be there for them if humans want academic or social help, despite her emotional nature and faerie race.
Born to wealthy faerie parents, the girl lived a pleasent childhood. Her father had a lot of money about him and her mother gained a lot of income through practically every job she could fit into a day. Jos was born with one sister who was roughly a year older than she was. Sheltered in her childhood, Jos and her sister were very close to each other and they were 9 and 10 when their father bought a larger house and revealed he had a lot more money than he'd previously let on. It was a shock to the entire family but he was a doting man and decided that he'd buy both his cherished daughters dresses. At that point, Jos' sister couldn't have thought of anything she'd hate more but her devious sister and clever mother took the tomboy faerie to find a suitable dress and she returned a lot more femineine than before, much to her father's amusement.Name: Legal
Nothing was particularly interesting until Jos' 14th birthday where somebody the family didn't know decided there was no birthday party for the young girl. Jos and her mother were both kidnapped and taken somewhere very much against their will. Jos' mother was called Taila at the time but it was a name she didn't like, a fact voiced to her by the kidnappers that frightenened the young mother and not to mention her confused daughter. Jos and Taila were both scared of them men that took them into what appeared to be a large container like room where they stayed for three torturous days. Jos was extremily dehydrated by the time the men fetched her but they left her mother inside the container with a severe kick to the head which knocked her out. All Jos could do was stay paralysed in fear as she was transported to some other place where a tall, somewhat handsome man greeted her unsettlingly kindly. He took her hand and gave her all the water and food she requested, giving her a room and bed and facilities for a shower should she like it. One morning however, all was not so awkwardly pleasant when a vampire greeted her with shackles and a fierce glint in his eye. Jos knew to run so in absolute fear she tackled him to the ground and sprinted outside of the place in no more than a ripped day dress. Finally seeing scenery, she realised her location was in the middle of a rocky desert. As she fled, Jos saw her mother in tight bonds with a man standing beside her, glaring. In a foreign language, Jos' persuer summoned the man to give chase as well to which Taila stopped, tackling him despite her bound hands and feet.
Luckily the rocky desert was a surface hard enough for equine transport and during her mad flee, the faerie located a horse and took the steed into the scorching plains and fled despite her failed attempt at rescuing her mother, never seeing Talia nor the men again. Jos found herself in a strange place and was taken in by a sweet tempered man who offered to be her father if he could. In total emotional lockdown due to her ordeal, the girl was shy but decided to accept the offer and stayed with the man until she was 19 and completed her latest education, before managing to get herself re-acquainted with her previous kidnapper when she offered an apparently homeless man help. Scared all over again, the girl left her hometown and simply walked until she found herself in this area around Cry Wolf High. Jos found a house and got herself settled in all by the time she was 20 and then calmed herself enough to polish of her photographical and artistic studies in order to become a teacher five years later, what she'd wanted to be since 15. And still she fears the retrun of her kidnappers. . .
