overall personality:
Oh boy! JJ is that kind of warm, bubbly personality that makes everyone smile. Not because she's full of energy, but because she just exudes calm and happy energy all the time. She loves spending all day in the kitchen baking for family and friends, but also loves dressing up and going out on the town with friends when the opportunity strikes. She hates being left alone for more than a few hours, and has a habit of commandeering t-shirts and sweaters from boyfriends and brothers alike.
Her fashion sense consists primarily of those band t-shirts and ripped jean shorts when it's warm, or cuffed jeans when it's not. If she's not baking, she'll probably throw on one of those aforementioned sweaters as well. If she's going out on the town, she'll be in the smallest body-con dress she can fit into without flashing strangers and pumps or flats but never strappy sandals.
Both her large family and her werewolf side make her particularly fond of pack dynamics, and her personality lends itself to the alpha female role of provider and denmother.

history:
Jennifer June Mayberry, nicknamed JJ by family and friends alike, arrived three weeks early--she says it was to avoid sharing a birthday with her older brother, and I’m liable to believe her. Her birth was a highly celebrated event, being the first girl after a string of nine boys. As the only girl, she was pampered with anything she could want, where her brothers were often presented with hand-me-downs from the oldest until the youngest, JJ was always dressed in new clothes whenever possible. Not that they were a wealthy family, but they were well enough off that they didn’t have to worry about feeding, clothing, and gifting their ten children, which JJ considered just fine with her. She had little use for any of that ‘rich people’ nonsense, with their haughty manners and that ‘too good for you’ sniff they did, like she was some kind of street urchin. It was hard work for her parents to keep track of ten kids by themselves, and while they could afford the occasional babysitter, nannies were just a bit beyond their reach. So they did the best they could to keep an eye on all of them whenever they went out, enlisting the older ones into watching the younger ones. Still, it was all too easy for JJ to run off sometimes, and she’d gotten herself lost in Diagon Alley or the streets of London more than once.
JJ attended Hogwarts just like all her brothers, and like all her brothers, she was sorted into Ravenclaw with little fuss. However, she wasn’t the same kind of curious that her brothers were, more interested in exploring the world and learning by doing than what she could find in a book, and she could often be found on the grounds poking at something. She made friends quickly, though most of them were outside her House, which was fine. JJ liked variety. At one point in her third year, JJ ventured into the kitchens while waiting for a Hufflepuff friend and ended up staying to learn how to bake. When she returned home for the summer, she asked her mother to continue teaching her. And so it went, JJ would explore the grounds and do her schoolwork, then she’d sneak down to the kitchens in the evenings for baking lessons and bring any treats she made back to her dorm. It worked well for her, though it didn’t do anything to abate her sweet-tooth. Eventually, she started baking at home for her brothers and parents, often sending them off with a treat for their lunch at work during the summer months.
After she graduated, JJ was still unsure of what she wanted to do with her life, so she stayed at home and baked for her family while she tried to figure it out. Eventually her mother brought up her love and skill for baking, and suggested something in a bakery. JJ was a bit wary, skeptical about having a boss since she wasn’t much fond of being told what to do, but she figured it wouldn’t hurt to look into it. Opening her own bakery was tempting, but she wasn’t fond of math or of all the paperwork required for running a business, so she scrapped that idea pretty quick. A head baker would probably be her best fit, though she knew she might have to climb that ladder from the bottom.
In the summer of 2012, she was out hiking with friends when something came out of seemingly nowhere and bit her, then left her for dead. She lived, miraculously, but she learned why when the next full moon came around. Unfortunately, she’d been staying with one of her brothers and bit him before he managed to lock her in a room for the rest of the night. Since then, she’s been meticulous about taking the potion, and usually goes to the forest with her brother to weather the night.
site events reaction:
JJ has...not been handling things well. Quarantine means restrictions means less socialization means being alone more than she'd like. It's not all bad, of course, because she can still bake and she lives close enough to her family that visiting them isn't much of a problem, but the whole thing makes her uneasy. All these political factions fighting for blood purity or witch-hunting are, quite honestly, terrifying. She was hardly a model witch before being turned, but now there's these groups out against demi-humans like herself, and squibs who want her dead just because she has magic. It's all a bit much, is what she's saying. She tries to keep positive about it all, and refuses to let it govern her life, but bravery isn't the lack of fear. Just a willingness to face it.
