SMILES REALLY BIG AND STARTS GIGGLING AND KICKING MY FEET
Joan is an OC I've had for like... probably only 2 years maximum now. I'd have to check the timestamps on the messages when I first started talking about her, but I can track her development in one discord server. it's wild.
She's by far one of my favourite OCs ever though, probably one of two Girls Of All Time. So much has changed about her and I'm still figuring so many details out I don't know where to start but ☝️ she was based off John Halo. and she is a lesbian. and she is Canadian.
she's supposed to be goofy as fuck in all settings. it makes the tragedy hit harder. she's infected by a sapient disease parasite girl (other Girl Of All Time) who thinks Joan's the most special woman ever and has decided she should never die. This is all fine and above board as part of her day job, which (depending on setting) varies from Space Explorer to NYC Superhero (by the alias Oxenfree)
she's 6'10" - 7' tall (sometimes she grows 2 inches), she throws herself into bad situations to die in the goofiest ways possible to draw the heat off of her teammates, she can't swim, she can't drive, she has severe OCD, she loves cats, her real brain is stored in a big aquarium tank somewhere and she gets airdropped into a new clone body every time she dies, she's addicted to pineapple-flavoured energy drinks, she plays Xbox, and she has an evil clone. and Halo, the franchise, exists in Oxenfree and directly inspired her presentation (she wanted to look like Master Chief). AND. she believes in a better world. thank you.
I don't have any current art of her but I want to show you an old commission made by a friend as a concept for her exosuit

Joan is Russian on her father’s side, and Irish-English on her mother’s.
Her father’s name was Ivan “Vanya” Vladimirovich Solovyov, her mother’s name was Catriona Ferguson.
‘Joan Ferguson’ is not her birth name, she was born Jekaterina Ivanovna Solovyova. Her father didn’t believe in nicknames, and only ever referred to her with her full name. Her mother called her Katia. As an adult, Joan won’t immediately respond to her birth name, she considers it to have died when her father died. She certainly will never respond to Katia.
Joan’s father was involved in some level of criminal activity while he lived in Russia, and was highly successful in his cutthroat business dealings, making him very wealthy.
When Joan was around two or three, he fled Russia and his business rivals with her and Catriona, moving to England. He legally changed all of their surnames to Ferguson, changing his own name to John, and changing Joan’s name to, well, Joan.
Around this time, Ivan became increasingly violent towards Catriona, becoming paranoid that she was slipping information about him back to his enemies in Russia. Ivan would frequently isolate Catriona from himself and Joan, telling Joan that her mother was a liar.
Joan was a highly intelligent child from birth, but struggled with social interaction. She had a natural flat affect, which disturbed her peers, and so she became even more isolated from everyone except her father.
Her frustration around her lack of friends manifested as violent outbursts, mimicking her father’s behaviour. Ivan encouraged her to see herself as above others, and actively discouraged her development of empathy and compassion. He also encouraged her childish destructive behaviours, such as tearing the wings and limbs off of bugs or wanting to dissect dead animals, believing it to be a natural sadism that would protect her in the future.
Catriona began to incorrectly suspect that Ivan was sexually abusing Joan, growing mentally unstable due to her own isolation and Joan’s increasingly antisocial behaviour. She confronted Ivan after he hit Joan for accidentally breaking a vase. The escalation of that argument is what led to Ivan strangling and then drowning Catriona.
That trauma caused the first split in Joan’s psyche.* Joan almost immediately repressed the memory. Her schizophrenic symptoms manifested in her early teens, beginning with auditory hallucinations of a verbally abusive version of her mother.
Joan and Ivan moved to Australia after Catriona’s death, and Ivan further instructed Joan in a variety of martial arts, also beginning fencing lessons.
Joan’s teenage years were largely unremarkable, Ivan pushed her into being a high academic achiever, and continued to instruct her in his own business practices, aka how to manipulate and plot. She fenced competitively from 12 to 18.
Joan’s schizophrenia worsened during a brief period in her late teens, and she ended up institutionalized after a violent altercation with a classmate. Ivan got her out of the hospital, but insisted that she be medicated, which Joan was highly adverse to.
She studied Law in university, specializing in Criminal Justice with minor focuses in Psychology and Pharmacology. She was hired right after post grad, doing various paid internships in the legal system before she settled on law enforcement. Her first job as a prison officer was actually taken on a rare whim in her early thirties.
Ivan died of a heart attack when Joan was in her mid thirties, and all of his estate and money went to her. By this time, Joan was working at Blackmoor. She was in an unusually emotionally unstable state when she met Jianna, which is why Joan became so attached to her.
*I headcanon Joan as having some form of DID or OSDD, with several alters, one of whom forms during the run of the show: Joan (host/main alter), The Governor (persecutor), Jekaterina (child/trauma holder), and Kath (forms after the extreme trauma of being buried alive plus her brain injury). Her hallucinations are linked to her dissociative disorder, so certain alters never front, but do appear as hallucinations (think season four Joan when she hallucinates herself as The Governor, or when Kath unrepresses her childhood memories).
idk if you'll see this joan but you were the sweetest and most caring mutual,,, you always brought a smile to my face when i saw u on my dash, i regret not asking for ur discord :c i hope youre ok
