Mm! The dust! How I missed the dust! Enter into my lungs, pretty dust!

Observer Johanna is a member of the Enlightened in Appalachia. Alongside fellow Observers Errol and Marlon, she accompanies Interpreter Clarence each Mothman Equinox in a seasonal pilgrimage from the Lantern to Point Pleasant.[1] Together, they reclaim the homeland of the Wise Mothman.[2] Johanna seeks the company of the Wise One, whom she calls "Poppa,"[3] and strives to bring him joy.[4][5]

Background[]

Johanna is a member of the Enlightened who lives at the Lantern. Her brother Jelle once served the cult alongside her, but he was eaten by "little ones" after he foolishly attempted to clone the Wise Mothman.[6] Her strong accent and unusual speech patterns suggest her first language may be Romanian.

Her favorite equinox is the Mothman Equinox,[7] and her nose feels "very tingly" when the planets align.[8] She ponders over how many equinoxes she might see in her lifetime,[9] as Observer Marlon informed her about the risks of prolonged inhalation of the dust during the ritual.[10] However, this does not keep her from embracing the dust.[11] She also has family. Her mother wanted to come to Point Pleasant, but never saw "him" again.[12] She misses her "Poppa."[3]

During the equinox, Johanna is tending to the waterside pyre on the western side of town. She is anxious to see the Wise Mothman again,[13] and will be overjoyed if the summoning ritual succeeds.[14][15]

    Interpreter Clarence: "Yes. I was accompanied by three Observers: Errol, Marlon, and Johanna. You will find them tending to the ritual pyres in the far reaches of this sacred site. If you speak, do not be offended by the absence of their minds. They are but humble witnesses to his wisdom, and have much left to learn from him."
