{{SubHeading|Personality|Gold}}
<h3>{{LCARS-bar-left|Personality|150|COLOR=goldenrod}}</h3>
 
* '''Temperament''':
** '''The Good:''' Doesn't take herself very seriously, prefers to break tensions, will argue her point as good as any. When faced with a challenge, she'll play hard and play to win. Has a dark sense of humour and speaks sarcasm fluently. Resourceful and always trying to think a step ahead. Optimistic, not naïve. Tells outrageous jokes. Loves being around people, gathers them on shore leave. Feels connected to music. May seem disorganized sometimes, but there's a lot going on in her brain. A strong hearted loyal friend. An undeniable smartass with a kind soul.
** '''The Bad:'''  If crossed, will hold a grudge for as long as necessary until she feels you've been redeemed. Does not have a lot of time for those who she feels are wasting hers.
 
* '''Carriage''': When busy, she walks with purpose, a woman on a mission. When relaxed, casual and slowed down a notch. Matches the speed of anyone she's walking with as she does tend to walk quickly without realizing it.
 
* '''Mannerisms''': Crosses her arms and chews on her lips when thinking. Leans on one leg or on a nearby surface if she can get away with it. Runs her hands through her hair. Kicks her boots up on desks wherever possible. Has her hands in her pockets when feeling relaxed. Tends to high-five and fist bump people she likes.
 
* '''Quarters''': Kept tidy, as much as possible, with a variety of personal effects. A Springball usually around somewhere she throws about when thinking. Holoimages of her family, friends, Academy Decathlon team and her Bajoran Springball team are on her desk. Her motorcycle is currently parked in the corner. The Admiral knows. It's no big deal.


* '''Hobbies''': Plays Springball, restores vintage motorcycles and cars, listens to all kinds of music from everywhere. ''More on her Hobbies and Pastimes below, if you're interested enough''.

* '''Ambitions''': Not an overly ambitious person, Jo is happy doing her thing and contributing to her ship as much as possible. She serves under a great Rear Admiral she thoroughly respects and can't see herself anywhere else in the near future.
<h3>{{LCARS-bar-left|Ambitions and Goals|225|COLOR=goldenrod}}</h3>


* '''Personal achievements''':
===Aspirations===
** Graduating from Starfleet Academy in the top Engineering bracket for her year. It took a lot of dedication and hard work.
** Living in the "other universe", and surviving it, with the help of friends and the [[USS Yarahla|Yarahla Nine]].
** Not dying when trapped in a fissure on Starbase 173, and coming out relatively unscathed.


* '''Disappointments''': None yet. She's severely leaning into her optimistic nature.

* '''Carriage''': When busy, she walks with purpose, a woman on a mission. When relaxed, casual and slowed down a notch. Matches the speed of anyone she's walking with as she does tend to walk quickly without realizing it.
As for goals, making it to 2396 would be nice.


* '''Mannerisms''': Crosses her arms and chews on her lips when thinking. Leans on one leg or on a nearby surface if she can get away with it. Runs her hands through her hair. Kicks her boots up on desks wherever possible. Has her hands in her pockets when feeling relaxed. Tends to high-five and fist bump people she likes.

Holoimages of her family, friends, Academy Decathlon team and her Bajoran Springball team are on her desk. Her motorcycle is currently parked in the corner. The Admiral knows. It's no big deal.
Achievements are not something Jo tends to collect many of - usually forgoing accolades for anything in return for a beer in a quiet bar where shenanigans can commence. The proudest moment of her life, and one she stuck around long enough for was graduating from Starfleet Academy in the top Engineering bracket for her year.  


Living in the "other universe", and surviving it, with the help of friends and the [[USS Yarahla|Yarahla Nine]] is definitely up there with those achievements and life wins she has stashed away in her mind. While the year forged friendships and bonds like no other, it was still tough going and brought Jo to the brink of some questionable thoughts.


{{SubHeading|Relationships|Gold}}
She doesn't have too many disappointments of note, yet, which might possibly be more to do with her optimistic nature than actually skimming the wings of a setback.

===Fears===


Like one would collect [[ma:Springball|Springball]] player stickers, Jo collects people. That's not to say she reduces them to a two-dimensional state and glues them into books. She is a happy, fruit-loop of a party-hard Officer, and loves spending time with the people she truly cares about. She will encourage you to do some kind of karaoke on shore leave, or dance naked in the [[Trill]] forests while eating a taco. Approach with caution and befriend if you dare.
*'''Losing Friends and Family:''' In the grand sense of the word, Jo is afraid of her friends and those she considers family dying, in action or otherwise. After suffering so much loss during their "Over There" time ''(see: [[Annus_Horribilis,_Part_2_(Gorkon)|Annus Horribilis, Part 2]])'', she keeps her friends close to her heart. You would think it would be a catalyst to do the exact opposite, but she's never been one to conform.
*'''Small Spaces:''' Less so recently, Jo was involved in a mining collapse during her apprenticeship on Volan III. The roof of the cave came down during an earthquake, burying the young woman under the rock and shattering her shoulder - the result of which was pulling out of professional Springball. She also suffered the fatal curse of the Ensign first mission panic attack, in which [[Ayiana Sevo]] managed to bring her out of before she let herself out of her EVO Suit and became one with open space.


* '''Significant Other''': None.
* '''Children''': None, thankfully.

{{SubHeading|Pastimes & Enjoyments|Gold}}
===Significant Other===
* '''Martital Status''': Single.


*'''Hobbies:'''
===Children===
**'''Springball:''' A hangover from her days playing professionally for Bajor, she tries to find new players to practice with or strong-arming her friends into a game.
* '''Offspring''': None, thankfully.
**'''Mechanics:''' Engineering projects on the sidelines include maintenance of a Terran motorcycle and car that she enjoys taking out when they get chance.
**'''Midnight Botany:''' A recent addition to her hobby list is cultivating seedlings from the Science Labs into plants. She hasn't broadened her horizons past growing one at a time yet, out of fear she'll kill them all.
**'''Meditation/Yoga:''' When she needs less noise and more centring, she quiets her mind with meditation and yoga.
**'''Athleticism:''' She has maintained the habit of keeping fit from her days of professional sports and holds it a big part of her lifestyle, including cardio training and weightlifting.  


*'''Food and Drink:'''
===Parents===
**'''Makapa Bread:''' A Bajoran foodstuff usually consumed as a breakfast meal. She can eat this at ay time, in any place, with the crust - a childhood belief it would make her terribly straight hair curly.
* '''Mother''': Robin Marshall
**'''Coffee:''' Self-explanatory for a Starfleet Officer. When "Over There", during rationing, she weaned herself off the beverage, down to one mug a day. It destroyed part of her soul.
* '''Father''': Luther Marshall
**'''Hasperat Soufflé:''' Another Bajoran dish from her childhood home usually made with whatever fruit was in season. If you want to get on her good side, bring her a soufflé with cream.

{{SubHeading|Before Starfleet|Gold}}
===Before Starfleet===


Growing up on a colony was one of the benefits of being a child of two Starfleet Officers. Jo was born on a starship, then raised on [[ma:Volan III|Volan III]] after the [[ma:Dominion War|Dominon War]].

Line 163: Line 167:
Given her first motorcycle at fifteen, the first thing she did was take it apart to see how it all worked, before putting it back together and going for a spin up the mountain paths. This only fueled her drive to find bigger problems, bigger engineering tasks, in which only Starfleet could offer.

===Enlistment in Starfleet===
{{SubHeading|Enlistment in Starfleet|Gold}}


After her enlistment into Starfleet Academy, Jo was a capable Engineer from the start and learned quickly. She chose to Major in Engineering, specifically Warp Theory, and minor in Operations to coincide with her abilities to multi-task, effectively making her a humanoid multi-tool.
