Character Sheet for Josephine "Josie" Forscythe
Species
Domestic Sable/Blackfooted Ferret Mix
Character Description
Josie is one set of twins, her brother Skylor being born just a few short minutes before her. Being who she is, she's used this ever since she was old enough to understand, calling Skylor "Big Brother" to sound cute when it was useful.
Josie is the definition of a daddy's girl who's daddy abandoned her. And like any other woman in that position, she's sought out a replacement. This came early on in her brother, who took over supporting the family when their father left.
This relationship could be considered by some to be unhealthy and this could be true. At current, however, it doesn't seem to bother either of them.
Josie is commonly found at work at the club her brother owns. When not there and not out shopping, she's at home, with a good book, a glass of white wine, and a Virginia Slim full flavor 120 in her lips.
Personality
She comes off as very happy and bubbly, making her seem as if she may be straddling "airhead" status. This is far from the case, as her mind and tongue are sharp to the point of being weapons. This catches most off balance at first.
She tends to use her body to her advantage, either in getting what she wants or distracting others from things she does.
This leads some to feel that the siblings are polar opposites from each other. This is mostly true, but they share a few qualities. Josie's temper is famous at times, as she doesn't have the control over it her brother does. She is the more likely of the two to get into a random fist fight for being slightly insulted.

Background/History
She grew up in a lower-middle class home, never going hungry, except for the things she wanted and couldn't have. These things weighed little on her mind, however, and she waqs generally a happy child.
This was until her father left abruptly. She withdrew into herself, her grades slipping, worrying about the future. This was short lived as things cleared up when her brother began supporting the family. She watched him do everything he was doing, never being asked and never asking for thanks, cementing in her mind that this was a "real man".
She had ambitions before her father left to go to college and study law, but with her father out of the picture, she couldn't attend right away. She felt she needed money fast after she moved out and within a short time, she found exotic dancing.
Her natural dexterity and flexibility served her well, as did her good looks, and she quickly became popular. She started attending night school on that money, laying down the ground work to eventually quit and go to law school full time.
She's still working toward that goal, doing "odd jobs" on the side to pad her purse a bit more, but has been having second thoughts about going into the legal profession.
Relatives/Family
Mother: Rachel Forscythe
Father: Richard Forscythe
Brother: Skylor Forscythe
World/Setting
The world in which this character comes from is a modified, modern world setting, similar to the world in which we come from.
Certain elements are different, however, owing heavily to the fact that the middle or "Dark Ages" did not last nearly as long for them, putting them a century or so ahead of us technologically.
Religion, however, still does exist, but is not prevalent in day to day life, similar to certain European countries. Most furs hold the opinion that someone's religion is "their business and not mine", so it's very rarely brought up.
This century hasn't led to many "world shattering" advances, however. Most vehicles run on hydrogen power, nuclear energy is dominant in most first world countries as well as other renewable sources.
Space travel is advanced compared to our world, but to only the closest of systems. Life has been found, but nothing remarkably intelligent as of yet that is comparable to the inhabitants of Earth.
Body
Josie is 5'9"(179cm) and 134lbs(61kg) and unlike her brother, is rather lithe. Her weight, however, owes to the muscle tone she's gotten thanks to her profession. Eating right and general exercise keeps her body fat down to a reasonable level.
She can lift herself up a few more inches, thanks to digitigrade legs and strong, ferret toes.
Her markings make her look incredibly similar to a basic domestic sable ferret, except for the spread of the "gloves and socks" of black on her arms and legs respectively.
Her main body color is a chocolate brown with a white to very light cream blaze on her chest in the shape of a "Y" crossing over her breasts. Her arms and legs are black, as mentioned, as is her pubic fur which she tends to keep trimmed back. At roughly the collar bone lines, her fur changes to a tannish cream, coloring all of her head except for her mask and ears, which are the same chocolate brown as her body.
She has incredibly long, shock red hair flowing from her head. She tends to leave it down and loose, flowing down over her back. At times, she enjoys dying some of the fur on top of the base of her tail red to match her hair, giving the illusion of her hair being longer than it is.
Clothing
To cut straight to the point, she has a tendency to dress like a hooker. Tube tops, leather mini skirts, "chain-style" belts, and sheer panties if she wears them at all.
If she's going a bit more casual, she's in love with cute sweat pants and a-frame or tank top shirts.
Accessories
Necklaces, earrings(two in each ear near the bottom curve), and small clutch purses. She tends to carry a billfold in those purses as well as a silver cigarette case and a cheap, disposable lighter.
