History & Summary:
I will give context for the creation of Josie. She’s a long time OC of mine that I like to mold and remold over time for different stories. Ultimately, she is my take on a character like Takamura from Hajime no Ippo, but more likeable. She also takes design elements from Josuke Higashikata from Jojo (of course, you knew that if you know JJBA, didn't you?). This time, she has been molded to fit into the world of the Corded Castello. Josie lives in a small nearby town, where she is their protector. You can often find her at the local tavern, boozing and shmoozing. As the call of the castle grew, members of her village began to leave in the middle of the night. When her latest lover left her lonely one morning, ranting and raving of the Corded Castello, Josie decided it was time to get to the bottom of what was going on.
Description & Visual Reference: (Can also use picrew to create a reference if you’d like)
Ambiguously white with a bulky frame. She has a lot of muscle, with fat to support it.
She has a huge head of blue hair that she puts into a pompadour with a ponytail. This is her shining characteristic. How she keeps it that way is a “trade secret".
She has a modified cropped jerkin on top with a black undergarment beneath it. It's shaped like a bra but it's not very important whether or not it functions that way. The jerkin is laced 4 times and has a minimal collar and tight short sleeves. Main color is a yellowish brown, hem color is a reddish brown.
On her fists she has cloth wraps to protect her hands from the caestus wraps. She uses these to fight with extra oomph. Think souls series fist weapons.
She has beige harem pants with red hem. She hangs extra wraps from her waistband.
She wears basic brown martial arts shoes. The brown matches the cestus gloves.
Practical Details (i.e. quirks, ways of speaking, etc.)
Josie is charismatic. She likes to engage with others. She is the one who tells everyone where they're going to eat dinner tonight because she's gonna arm wrestle the tavern owner for free drinks. A bit odd and forward if anything, but there's never a dull day with her.
Most of the time, she's smiling assertively and confidently. When it’s time for serious business, she gains a curt frown. It’s not often she pulls out that side of her- she wants to put on a good face for everyone around her, and for everyone to have a good time.
Struggles to focus on herself, often relies on other people in her community as they rely on her.
