Phedre - that's a real good question. I'd want to reread a bunch of her canon because it's been so long and her voice was very specific. If I had to pick one now, it would be before Imri's rescue, while they're both prisoners and when he had just started to trust her.
Josie - well, that's a tough one. I'm tempted to say from the end of the main campaign, like she legit walks out of the party and into Darrow. OR, from right after Blackwall's deception is revealed because I'd play her as having been sweet on him and hey, we all like a little betrayal with our trauma, right? I think that's the more likely option, TBH.
As for why her and not Cass? I struggled a LOT with Cass while I was playing her, it's why she didn't last so long. I still love my grumpy Nevarran to bits, but she's, well, grumpy and making friends was hard for her/me and I didn't feel like there were a lot of options in Darrow for her. She's not an out-of-the-box thinker, so it really put constraints on me. Josie's much more agreeable and I'd have a lot more options with what to do with her in terms of jobs, potential flirting (love my bi girls!), etc... After playing so many fighters over the years, it would be nice to play a former spy-turned-diplomat dedicated to peace and non-violence.
