Likes
❤ playing music- especially guitar. The tips of her fingers on her left hand are rough with callouses from playing, and she's proud of that fact. She also plays piano, but not quite at the same level. Learning new instruments brings her great joy, so she's quite the jack of all trades.
❤ learning about science from Clancy. She's not clever enough to understand it much herself, but her head is full of fun (and not so fun) science facts.
❤ being outside. She loves being among nature.
Dislikes
✗ full moon transformation- understandably, as it's painful and she's not in control of herself.
✗ bullying. She never experienced it herself, as she's simply too amiable, but she would always vehemently stick up for those who were.
✗ her inner realist- she'd love to dream freely and boldly like she did as a child, but the realities of life has made this almost impossible.
Fears
☬ her own mediocrity.
☬ the full moon, predictably. The thought fills her with dread, so she represses it with her sunny personality.
Goals
★ though she's an optimist through and through, there's a certain amount of realism in her too. She'd love to become a musician, but she knows her singing voice isn't groundbreaking, and besides- so few people are successful in the entertainment business that it's quite ridiculous to imagine she could be among the lucky few. Instead, all she wishes for is a life of happy contentment.
Personality: Josie is, according to those who know and love her, a ray of sunshine. Never without a smile, she's a social creature who loves to help others. She has a strong sense of compassion, especially towards children and animals, and acts on it frequently.
Coming from a very creative family, Josie loves to express herself through her music. She's a gifted songwriter, penning her own lyrics as well as composing melodies, and she has a sweet little singing voice to boot.

Parents: Maria and David Riley

Other Family: N/A
Important Others: Clancy Arkwright
History: Josie was born into a musical family. She's been listening to the greats since before she was born; from Sinatra to Madonna; Etta James to the Rolling Stones. Even if her parents hadn't nudged her towards musical endeavours from a young age, Josie would have probably gravitated towards it regardless; she has a natural talent for instruments and a sweet little singing voice to boot.
Not only known for their musical tendencies, the Rileys have been a prolific fenrir family for centuries. Maria, not a fenrir but a witch, fell in love with and married David in this knowledge, but she had reservations about starting a family. It's not wrong to say that Josie was an accident- but a happy one to say the least. Maria's doubts were the dissolved the first time she saw her newborn daughter, tiny and perfect, and Jake followed three years later. Josie has always been close with her little brother, although sometimes resented that his chosen instrument is the drums. She could barely hear herself think when he practised.
And then came the collapse. It turned everyone's world upside down, quite literally. By some miracle, Josie and her family made it through the ensuing anarchy and chaos largely unscathed. As was common during this time, the Rileys joined forces with allies they met along the way as they fought to survive in the destruction.
It was during the first year of mayhem that Josie met Clancy, a seemingly precocious young girl of around 15 with an intense phobia of germs and a sharp scientific mind, and the elderly woman with whom she travelled, named Belle. Clancy and Belle joined the Rileys as they traversed this new chaotic world, though Josie didn't learn of the relationship between the two until after Clancy's true identity was revealed, a little less than a year after their meeting. They 'came out', as it were, at the same time. It became harder for Josie to explain why she would consistently disappear under full moon every month. Besides, Clancy was an intelligent girl- she figured it out long before Josie summoned up the courage to tell her.
Despite being such starkly different individuals; Josie with her being relatively normal, Clancy with her fascination of animal dissection and of the time space continuum, the two became fast friends. It helped that Clancy was also quite the music lover. She introduced Josie to Nirvana, and the two would spend many an hour listening to various alternative rock artists together.
Somewhere along the way, Josie fell in love with Clancy. She couldn't pinpoint when or where, exactly, but all she knows is that she loves Clancy for her quirks and oddities, and all her science babble-whether she understood it or not.
Four years after the initial collapse, the rip was located. The world's most talented witches devised a spell which would allow a group to travel back in time, in the hopes of preventing the rip from ever occurring. Clancy, clever as she is, was certain that her mind was most suited to this task. However intelligent, one thing Clancy cannot bear is being alone. Nor is she one for begging, but she subtly worked at persuading Josie to join her. Sure, she'd have Belle, but as a woman in her 90s she can hardly be relied upon for wholesome company.
Josie's parents could see that their daughter loved this strange redheaded girl, who had wandered into their lives with her senile mother four years ago, and encouraged Josie to go with her- however painful the goodbye would be. Convinced by Clancy's 'save the world' speech, full of scientific jargon that went in one ear and out the other, and compelled by her parent's support, Josie agreed to accompany Clancy in her time travelling exploits.
The two were plunged into world entirely different from their own, but at least they were together. Though Josie was devastated to be separated from her family, Clancy tried her best to offer comfort and support, and Josie adapted to life without her parents and little brother surprisingly well. She knows little of the world-saving mission she returned to complete, but with Clancy at her side she believes anything is possible.[/div]

RP Sample: Bloodied and exhausted, Blaire pushed open the bar door and traipsed inside. Her vision was a little obscured thanks to the fresh black eye she was sporting, but she acknowledged her fellow regulars with a nod and a grunt as she passed, and settled on an isolated seat at the bar.
“Tough day?” asked the barman with a smile, drying a tumbler with a fresh rag. Blaire snorted and massaged her forehead with the hand that wasn’t sporting grazed knuckles. “Tough? Nah, just another day in the life, mate. ‘Nother day in the life. Hit me up, will you? Make it a double, I’m still seeing stars.” With a laugh, the barman set the clean glass on the bar and filled it with amber whiskey before sliding it across the shiny mahogany surface of the bar to Blaire.
“You’re a good man, Joseph. A fuckin’ star,” Blaire grinned blearily and raised the brimming glass to her swollen lips. She carefully tipped a little liquid into her mouth and swallowed, then released a cough as the whiskey hit the back of her throat,, “Jesus, the good stuff. You really pity me tonight, don’t you? Maybe I should get beaten up more often,” she snickered and took another sip, taking the time to cast her gaze over the room. The bar was quiet tonight, but Blaire didn’t much feel like hitting on anyone in her current state. That wasn’t to say that the fresh-from-a-fight look had no success, as Blaire remembered with a wry smile that it had certainly won over a couple hearts in the past.
