History: Born into a wealthy family, Josephine grew up wanting for nothing. She raised as a proper lady and attended one of the most prestigious private schools in Paris. It was here that she began Fencing and discovered an interest in English literature. She went on to study this at Oxford University, which is where she met her boyfriend Jonathan Mayfair, a crass public school educated student from Manchester. To say they clashed at first would be the understatement of the century. Despite the insistence of their peers, it wasn't until a peculiar night involving red underwear, an Ass's Head and a night locked in the theatre together, that these two realised just how much they had in common (Including a wicked mischievous streak and a love of Shakespeare and fashion). Now having graduated, Josephine works in publishing whilst living with Jonathan in his second-hand book shop in London.

Personality: Having been raised as a Lady, Josephine approaches everything she does with poise and grace. Despite being fairly aloof she has a wicked sense of humour and has been known to play the occasional prank (though you'll rarely find out it was her). She can be easily distracted and can often be seen with a far away look in her eyes. This will rarely happen if she's at a social gathering however as it's bad manners. She will always try to talk her way out of a situation, rather than fight it out. She is also a bit of a bookwork, and loves nothing better than curling up with a good book... Except maybe shopping... or Jonathan.

Strengths: Josephine is an accomplished fencer as she has be training since she was little. She is a good horse rider and swimmer for similar reason. She tends to rely on skill and speed. Having joined the debate team in University, Josphine has become very good at winning arguments using clever observations and confusing opponents with her fancy language. Doing that with a tantalising smirk on her face usually results in the opponent getting very frustrated.

Weaknesses: Being slight in stature Josephine is lacking in the strength department, having to think up clever ways to overcome obstacles. She also does not like getting mucky, preferring to keep her distance and have someone else to the dirty work.
