Joslin 'Jos' Reyes grew up in one of the roughest neighborhoods of Queens, New York. She's straight talking and no nonsense, but has warm side she doesn't share easily. She is also fiercely loyal and someone you really wouldn't want to get on the wrong side of. After being accused for the murder of a local gang leader, Reyes was suspended from the NYPD. Due to a natural affinity with engines, she re-trained and found work as a mechanic.
