Josie Linton-Morgan
"I ain't my mama's girl. I'm my daddy's daughter."
"I ain't my mama's girl. I'm my daddy's daughter."
Name: Josephine "Josie" Linton-Morgan
Age: 17 (RDR2 timeline)
Hair: Fiery red, usually tied back in a loose braid
Eyes: Striking Morgan-blue
Build: Curved and fit from riding and rough living — the kind of figure that makes men look twice and women whisper
Clothing Style: Practical and masculine-cut — trousers, boots, leather vest — but worn in a way that's still distinctly feminine. Her revolver sits proudly at her hip.
Background
Raised in wealth and propriety by Mary Linton, Josie never fit the role her mother wanted — the quiet, obedient society girl. Instead, she had a temper, a wit sharper than her sewing needle, and a restless streak a mile wide. Her relationship with Mary was cold, more obligation than affection.
When Josie was sixteen, she found a bundle of old love letters from Arthur Morgan hidden under the floorboards. The words were raw, honest, and nothing like the life she'd been taught to admire. Josie realized she wasn't a Linton by blood. She was a Morgan — and she wanted her father's name.
Taking jewelry from her mother's collection, Josie sold it for travel money and a decent gun. She headed west, asking questions about the Van der Linde gang, chasing rumors about a man she'd never met but who she already felt in her bones.
She's fiery, reckless, and more capable than she looks. But the world of outlaws and gunslingers is dangerous — and Josie's learned quick that not everyone's a friend. She's already had a run-in or two with Micah Bell, and her dislike for him is mutual and heated.
Personality
[] Firebrand Rebel: Quick to challenge, quicker to act. She's bold enough to walk into any room and own it.
[] Street-Smart & Charming: A sharp tongue and a confident smile have gotten her out of more trouble than her revolver has.
[] Thrill-Seeker: The higher the stakes, the bigger the rush. Cards, wagers, or danger — she's all in.
[] Soft Core Beneath the Steel: She's loyal to those she trusts, protective of the underdog, and has a weak spot for strays — human or animal.
Potential Story Ideas
[] Crossing Paths with the Gang: Josie unknowingly meets her father before she learns the truth. Could be taken under Arthur's wing, manipulated by Dutch, or mentored by Sadie.
[] Small-Town Connections: Josie befriends someone outside the outlaw world — maybe the orphan boy in Strawberry who owns a dog.
[] Native American Connection: A young man trying to escape a bad situation or the violence around him could find a kindred spirit in Josie.
[] Jack Marston (Aged Up): Josie and Jack clash — she's reckless, he's cautious — but opposites can attract.- Old Enemies: Micah Bell's troublemaking nature keeps them crossing paths, and Josie has no problem standing her ground.
What I'm Looking For
I want to keep Josie grounded in the gritty, dangerous, and complex world of Red Dead Redemption 2. Possible partners don't have to be gunslingers — in fact, I love the idea of her pairing with someone who's not as deep in the outlaw world. She works best with characters who can play off her wild streak — either grounding her or getting swept up in it.
Preferred Writing Style: Third-person, past tense, paragraph-style RP. Medium to long posts.
Tone: Character-driven storytelling with a mix of danger, drama, banter, and slow-burn tension.
If you're interested in plotting something with Josie, send me a PM with your character idea and how you think they might meet her.
Let's make something dangerous, messy, and unforgettable.
