It was not uncommon for the French natives of Alsace (or Alsatia, as it is sometimes called) to speak fluent German and such was the case for Josephine's mother. Josephine's father spoke English and Josephine grew up in a bilingual household on French soil without learning French as a native tongue. <br><br> |

=='''Physical Description'''== | =='''Physical Description'''== | ||
− | In appearance, Josephine is somewhat tall for a woman. Standing at five feet and nine inches in her stockinged feet, she is considerably leaner than the voluptous figure required of the day. She is certainly more accustomed to physical action over cultivated weakness and she is tougher than she appears. Her hair is a dark brown, catching red glints in the sunlight, and her brown eyes are bright and observant. Her complexion is clear, her features even, and her fair skin is a sturdy type that tans well instead of burning. Her hair is somewhat shorter than is the norm for a woman of her era and she wears it in a ballerina bun or a simple French twist | + | In appearance, Josephine is somewhat tall for a woman.

Of corsets she has little use or liking and though she does possess one, her physical habits and figure are such that she can usually dispense with wearing it. Josephine prefers practicality over fashion, comfort over convention whenever possible and though this has led to some raised eyebrows and scandalized sensibilities, she feels the mobility, utility, and self-sufficiency thus gained more than compensates for any misconceptions about her character.<br><br> |

She was raised by scholar parents who nurtured and indulged her native intelligence and if there is one area in which Josephine is guilty of the sin of pride, it is her intellect. She relies on it heavily to guide her through the vagaries of life such as befall an unaccompanied woman in this society and so far, it has served her well. As such, she is more apt to do for herself than rely on others for their assistance, looking askance at such dependency as weakness and a failing of character. She is indefagitable, creative, a maverick and a survivor, and though the odds are stacked against a woman in a man's world, she is supremely confident in her ability to win through in her endeavors.<br><br> |
