* WASP
* MOTH

**Warning: this page contains spoilers for *Ovine Replica*.**

Joanne Edison is a minor character in *Ovine Replica: Serenity in Flesh* and a member of the Warriors Against State Persecution.

## Profile

*Instead of working toward a proper uprising with her peers as a member of an insurgent organization, her priority lies in breaking the law and causing mischief simply to have some fun while getting by. She's not a high-profile criminal only because her evasive skill is unmatched.* — The official site

## Appearance

Joanne is a 21-year-old woman with long black hair and bangs covering her brown eyes. She wears a brown poncho with a red stripe over her white short-sleeved shirt. She wears a light brown belt with a silver belt buckle. The poncho obscures the right side of her body along with her sword attached to her belt. She wears two brown gloves, black jeans ripped at the knee, and brown lace-up boots.

In Ovine Archetype, she wears the MOTH uniform open over her white shirt and leaves her sword exposed.

## Personality

Joanne is crass, swearing often and talking about violent things such as attack wolves. She is selfish, caring only about cream soda and her sword. She uses her sword and violence as a means to stabilize her life, no matter who she hurts or betrays. She has a somewhat friendly attitude, getting along with Carol Kanovos.

## Plot

### Scout

In Chapter 2, when Ecout Kanovos, Otis, Carol, and Louise Alkaev along with a squadron of MOTH soldiers arrive in front of the WASP headquarters, Joanne grabs one of the MOTH soldiers hostage and demands the rest to give up their weapons.

### Displacement

In Chapter 3, Joanne lends Carol her clothes. They both stay at the headquarters while Ecout goes on a hunting trip with Otis and Melanie.

### Retaliation

In Chapter 4, Joanne and Carol train with wooden swords on the rooftop of the WASP headquarters while Ecout and Otis watch.

Later that evening, Otis decides to grant Carol a wish, who wishes she was never associated with the MOTH. Joanne enters the basement and tells Ecout, Otis, Carol, and Melanie Callisto about how the location around the building changed. They all look outside and realize that the WASP headquarters being relocated to another part of outer Enonoia was the effect of Carol's wish.

### Cycle

In Chapter 5, after Ecout and Otis return to the MOTH headquarters at night, they see Carol and Joanne waiting for them. Melanie appears and asks about their day before mentioning to Otis her plan to meet Erika Callisto for tomorrow. Otis expresses his desire to be with Ecout more than Melanie, and Melanie laughs it off.

The next day, Melanie takes the elk Ecout and Otis brought back to pursue Erika herself. Ecout is shocked by this and brings Otis and Carol to pursue Melanie. Joanne lends her belt and cloak to Carol and sends them off.

### Replica

In Chapter 6, after Otis can grant wishes for himself, he kills Joanne.

### Ovine Archetype

In Ovine Archetype, Joanne defects to the MOTH under Letat Saiskaya's control because of the stability the position grants her. She guards the Enonoia palace and encounters Louise escorting Ecout and Carol to where Otis is being kept. Joanne and Louise engage in combat and Ecout and Melanie run away to where Otis is located.

## Trivia

* Joanne swears three times in *Ovine Replica*, second only to Ecout's twenty-six times. However, she is the only character to say "fucking."
