- Resources 2
- Artifact 2
- Jade hearthstone bracers, so, uh... drops her speed by 1.
- Artifact 3
- Sun and Moon (Note: In the original version they were bayonetted flintlocks, because black powder existed in the ST's version of the setting. As written here, they're basically single-shot pieces with plasma ammunition that require a miscellaneous action to reload. ...and they still have bayonets. I could do it this way or say to hell with it and make them PTRs, it's your call. :) Stats are below. --K)

Personal Information
Appearance
On the short end of average, with brilliant blue eyes and long wavy blue-black hair she keeps pinned up in braids after the custom of her people. She usually wears a somewhat mischievous smile when she deals with strangers (or her companions for that matter), though once the cutesy trickster's facade drops, she's all business. She wears a Marukan circuit rider's cropped jacket and underbust corset, a plain tunic and utility trousers, kidskin boots, and a dark crimson cloak that was once part of her officer's uniform when she was still in the First Field Force. Far from being a "typically" stoic Night Caste, Jo is affable, even friendly. At least, when she wants to be.
History
...Jesus lord, maybe I should just link to the entire 23-chapter story on TFS or something, lol XD;;
Of course, not that she's going to go around telling people who she is unless her reputation precedes her - she calls herself Johanna Mayhiros, a Marukani who used to be a circuit rider after she did a stint with the Seventh Legion, and took her veteran's pension to go travel the world. Shhh, dun tell anybody. >.>
