His build however, it quite broad. After his time spent working on fishing boats, Josh's body was well toned and his skin was quite bronzed. Because appearance wasn't a huge importance on the boats, Josh let his facial hair grow out. Living in the frozen north, he found he prefered the protection in his upright form, so he's kept it since. Over the years of working on the boat, Josh has accumulated a number of tattoos all over his body. The most notable of which is his sleeves, which is an almost random assortment of drawings on both arms. In his fur, Josh becomes much darker, inheriting his father's dark hue. He is equally as square built in his fur as he is upright, standing only 45" at his shoulders. His eyes in both forms are the same shade of golden brown. [b]Basic Personality[/b]: Because of his omega status throughout his childhood, Joshua has always felt like an outcast and, as a result, has always kept to himself. Although Joshua doesn't like to admit it, even to himself, he suffers from some intense social anxiety. As coping mechanism, Joshua pushes people away with an asshole disposition. For him, it's easier to keep people at a distance, whether it's a human or a wolf. Joshua was raised in a heavily Christian environment. While he questions his own beliefs, Joshua catches himself making biblical references often. At this point in his life, he's simply accepted it as a part of his background. [b]Brief History[/b]: Joshua was the product of a one-night stand between a human waitress and an irresponsible pack male. After making a connection at a bar in a small town the pack of the male inhabited, the two shared a bed. Weeks later, Margie Hamilton discovered she was pregnant. Disgracd by her mistake, Margie had no intention of seeking out the father, until she became gravely ill. Convinced she would die, Margie finally found Joshua's father; Richard Black, a farmhand who resided on a plantation on the outskirts of the county. Quickly, Margie discovered the big secret about the Beddington Plantation; they were all wolves, werewolves. At first, Margie couldn't believe it, but after they saved her life, she couldn't deny the truth of her son's lineage. For a few years, Margie and Richard tried to mate, for the sake of their child. They even bared another child, Sarah Black, Joshua's younger sister. However, Margie could never adjust to the pack life. When Josh was 8, his world was divided. His human life with his mom and his pack life with his father. Unfortunately, Josh never felt like he fit into either. Josh's teenage years were particularly difficult. He often acted out in both the pack and the human world to the point neither of his parents knew what to do with him. After almost going to juvenile detention, and dropping out of high school, Josh went to live with his father in the pack and work on the plantation. Because of his past, the pack didn't accept Josh very well. He was often getting into confrontations, and causing trouble with his packmates. Finally, just before Josh was considered an adult, Josh was cast out by his father. Feeling disgraced, rather than going back to his mother's side of the family, Josh ran away to the coast and got hired onto a fishing boat. He worked for the boat for several years, keeping his distance from the world beyond the boat. For a while, Josh grew to hate his wolf form. For years, he didn't take his fur form. He refused. It was just a few years ago, Josh discovered he was no longer able to take his wolf form. This didn't bother Josh too much until he became aware of a rash amount of animal attacks around the docks that his boat took port in. Josh became worried that his wolf was acting out against him. Now, after over ten years, Josh is seeking out wolves who might be able to help him with his dilema.
