It's the only ship she's been assigned to since her Cadet Cruise and she might as well have the crest tattooed on her heart.

* '''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 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.

**'''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 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.

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.

** The first mission Jo found herself on after being thrown through a fissure during a crew resupply. The ship was supplanted into an alternate universe where the Dominion had won the war, meeting up with the crews' alternate selves, and fighting for a way to get home.

** A continuation of the previous mission, also known as the "Year of Hell" to those serving on board the [[USS Gorkon]] at the time. Sustaining heavy damage in various ship battles, without the option of repairs and refits, Jo was seconded into Main Engineering to help the ongoing effort of keeping their Sovereign-Class starship afloat. Raids, rationing, and regular thrashings from the other universe Dominion, it was a trying time, however it forged friendships that would last a lifetime.

** Newly posted to the taskforce in the [[Tyrellian Sector]], the crew were tasked with routing out the [[Orion Syndicate]] influence that had ceded the government and protecting the Chief Prosecutor from harm. Dodging and unexploded "bomb", getting shot at by an old-style turret, then threatened by an [[Orion]] "slave girl" who turned out to be a mobster, it was a rather eventful mission for Jo she won't soon forget.

** Hosting a diplomatic conference on the [[USS Gorkon]] between the Romulan Star Empire, Romulan Republic, Klingon Empire and the Tyrellians, something was bound to go wrong. And, surprisingly, it did! [[Quinn Reynolds]] was attacked, a bomb exploded in the conference room, and Jo found herself trying not to rip out sections of the [[USS Triumphant]]'s Operations chair while playing war games with their taskforce colleagues.

** Escaping a radiation storm that would have made them all a little less than alive, the crew dove into the depths of Leutra IV to find that not only was there a living spider organism machine network running beneath the surface, but that a Ranger contingent, the 451st to be exact, had been stranded there during a mission. It was during this escapade into the weird and wonderful that Jo met her best friend [[Sera zh'Aella]], who came riding into battle on the back of a mechanical spider wave, taking a chunk out of one of them with her bare teeth. Suffice to say, they were friends immediately.

** On the bestie's first day as the Helm Officer, [[Sera zh'Aella]] did something which caused the Quantum Slipstream Drive to switch itself off mid-flight, throwing the ship into the nebula known as The Roman Expanse. A network of electrical storms and bad tempers, the nebula quickly rendered their ship powerless and incapable of escape. As luck would have it, the zoo-keepers for a large energy sucking creature decided it wasn't feeding time, and were preventing the ship from gaining back power to stop them all from becoming a starfish omelet.

Transporting down to the surface, Jo was part of the Away Team that were tasked with trying to repair the Verteron Array and get it back up and running for Federation science collaboration. Instead of doing that, they found a D'deridex class warbird underneath the Science Facility crewed by a strange mix of Andorians and Romulans, as though they'd teamed up for the kicks, and took the warbird out for a joy ride.
