Josie is of mix heritage and have scrapped her entire life as the result of facing down disapproving voices from both sides of her linage. Not to mention dealing with the system that is very much stacked agqinst her. She comes from the roughest parts of ”Little Thailand” a small part just outside of china town. Her grit is second to none, and her discipline would give drill sarge run for his money. She likes to toss down a cold one and relax around friends, but will go into fight or flight the second you corner her about her past.
In a fight, she is a terror. She is ruthless and violent to the point of crippling people with her bare hands. she fights dirty and she fights efficiently.
Uniform/costume: Josie does't wear anything special for her ”vigilante duty”. She ties a scarf around her face to hide it but it usually slips off. She wears army fatigues and varius sturdy articles of clothing. Generally, you will see her dressed in some sort of faux-military get up. Her preference lay with vests and tank tops.
Origin Info/Details:
Josie Kaya was born to a Thai father and Chilean mother. She was born into a poor household as the only child. Her parents lived in Little Thailand, a mainly thai set of neigbourhoods that exist on the outskirts of china town. The place always had trouble with the local teen gangs stirring up trouble. But they did seem to keep out the far worse alternative; The Triads. Being close to the China Town district, there were the occasional gangsters trying to move in. But the gangs kept chasing them out. Josie ended up in one of these gangs. Being a girl, she had to scrap twice as hard as the boys, but she managed. She was all fire, and people began to call her ”Ray Josie” which meant Fierce Josie in Thai. But she knew the streets would claim her life and that she needed an out. Thai Boxing wasn't that way, as good as she was she lacked the discipline to train daily and several of the boys in her gang attended the gym she went to.
Her out became singing up for the army. As it turns out, she was a pretty good fit. Her sheer determination of not going back coupled with her talent for fighting made her a favorite to her superiors who constantly saw her outperform her peers, male and female. Her service record distinguished her as a good shot with a exceptional ability to keep calm in the worst of situations. She was fast tracked to special forces as her grit, determination nad ability all were second to none in her unit.
She spent 15 years fighting abroad. From her 20th birthday to right after her 35th. By the time she got home, she had spent 8 of those in special ops, doing wetwork and fighting behind enemy lines. She doesnt talk about it much, but there are tidbits in her now expunged record. She was in Laos when something happened to her. She came in contact with another plane of existence. She, like a shaman of old, drew upon the wisdom of her dead ancestors when she was about to be killed in a ambush.
She left the army shortly after that. Returning home to seek counsel from her father, who was a religious man. But there were nothing for her to return to. During the past 15 years, little Thailand had fallen to the Triads. The old gangs were gone, murdered all but for a few. Her father had died along her mother, having been trapped in the local shrine during a shoot out. A new Triad Leader had approached the neighborhood with a scorched earth mindet. Her home was in ruins. One that did survive however, was her old Thai Boxing teacher. A lady who it turned out, was also well versed and experienced in the supernatural. She explained that the Infinite Mother, the energy of the universe itself, had chosen her to be its vessel. Because she was like it, fire and bright. Just and tempered.
Under her tutelage, Josie learned to call upon the spirits more frequently and in more controlled circumstances. Josie also turned her cab, her sole possession left to her by her mother, into a shrine of sorts.
