Introduction

Ymbryne
───────────────

We create temporal loops in time which anyone can live indefinitely... only women are born Ymbrynes... We Ymbrynes must scour the countryside for young children in need, steer clear of those who would be harmful, and keep our kind fed, clothed, hidden, and steeped in the lore of our people. And if that isn't enough, we must also keep our loops resetting each day like clockwork

Hi my name is Josephine River and I'm peculiar, I'm 98 years old (yes I know, young right) my peculiar is strange even to the Peculiars that see me perform it

Paralysis Shock

The power to immobilize your opponents motor functions temporarily

It's been really hard using my peculiar power in front of people, after what happened that day. My parents had died in a fire caused by a Hollowgast, the flames burned half of my face so now I have to wear a mask to cover it so people won't be afraid of me. But even though I wear a mask I  can't seem to talk to people even just a simple "Hello" all I can make out is "H..." I was taken to a Psychologist to help me with my speaking problem.

He told me that I had Agoraphobia.

 A fear of wide range public places that will often come with a panic attack, because of this fear. Those with your diagnosis disorder avoid situations which might trigger an anxiety attack. In some cases you are unable to leave your own house it gets that bad.

My parents abandoned me when I needed them the most. They died and I didn't

I started wandering the streets looking for some place nice to sleep, that's when Mrs Graves found me alone on a sidewalk alley.  She told me that I was special, that I could live a better life if I came with her. She told me I had a future. I could see a spark in her eyes, it was like that was telling me I should go with her.

I agreed with her and she took me into her home which was called a Loop. She fed me, clothed me and helped me with my anxiety. And that's where I've been for the past 85 years. It was all nice and happy until Mr. Barron and his Hollows found us, wrecked our loop and killed all the children with only myself and Mrs Graves to survive.

With Mrs Graves dying breath, "Travel to a loop that's on a small island located in Wales near a town called Cairnholm. Ask for Miss Peregrine and tell her I sent you." She handed me a map with the location of the loop. "Now go! GO! Before the Hollow's catch you" That was the last time I ever spoke to her again. Till this day i'm still hoping she's alive but only time will tell 

This is where my story begins
