Josh

"You can't trap a trapper."

- Breacher

Josh, better known as Breacher, is the former leader of the Collectors and the father of Cynthia. He currently is spending his retirement at a dragon farm on Earth Forty-Seven.

Early life
Josh at some point became the leader of the Collectors and became known as Breacher, in his time having hunted down some of the worst breach criminals in history, such as Marla the Dark Lord, Soolunga of Sheerdra, and the Sand People of Scar. He also fought and killed a hunter-killer from Earth Forty-Eight, taking a blade from his body.

At some point, he had a daughter, Cynthia.

Proving Cisco's worth
Having discovered his daughter, known under the moniker "Gypsy", to have a boyfriend on Earth One, Breacher traveled from Earth Nineteen to attack him. He was quickly stopped by Gypsy, who was in the other room. Breacher was taken by her boyfriend, Cisco Ramon, to his place of work, S.T.A.R. Labs, and attempted to impress him, claiming that Barry Allen was his personal assistant. Breacher soon grew bored with S.T.A.R. Labs, so the pair joined Gypsy at CC Jitters, where Cisco grabbed them coffees. Breacher, however, claimed to have abstained from drinking coffee, after all of the coffee crops had been wiped out in his universe. Because of this, Gypsy offered to go get him a tea. While she was gone, Breacher began counting down, deciding to give Cisco 24 hours to prove his worth as he hunted him. Cisco returned to S.T.A.R. Labs, where Breacher followed.

Cisco spent some time running from Breacher, before deciding to use his smarts to build a trap for Breacher. Breacher was tricked by a hologram of Cisco but was able to get out of the prison by using the blade from the Earth Forty-Eight hunter-killer he'd taken down. Breacher made his way back to the main cortex, where he saw an old video of Ralph Dibny with elongated limbs. Mistaking him for a Plastoid, the same species that had nearly destroyed his Earth, Breacher went after him, knocking him and the Flash down with vibrational blasts. Vibe intervened, explaining the situation before the two watched the Flash and Ralph save Joe West from a helicopter. The following day, as Breacher and Gypsy prepared to leave, Breacher admitted to respecting Cisco, if not like him. He received notification of a code 17 breach, proceeding to call Gypsy by her real name. When asked of his real name, Breacher told Cisco that it was Josh, before the two Collectors stepped through the breach.

Breacher returned and asked for Cisco to help him, as his powers no longer worked following a confrontation with a vampire named Crucifer. Caitlin determined that Breacher's powers no longer worked due to old age. Not wanting his chances with Gypsy to be ruined, Cisco lied and gave Breacher allergy medication, convincing him it'd cure his powers and shooting a vibe blast from behind Breacher to make him believe his powers were restored. To Cisco's horror, Breacher went to confront Crucifer again but Cisco saved him just in time. Cisco finally confessed the truth to Breacher and he told Cisco that he hates him out of hurt and anger. Breacher returned again, dressed in casual clothing and announced his retirement as a collector, planning to spend his retirement at a dragon farm on Earth Forty-Seven. Breacher recommended Cisco to replace him as a collector so that he could work alongside Gypsy and spend more time with her.

Personality
Josh can accurately be described as gruff, serious, and incredibly aggressive. Due to the traumas he suffered on his Earth, he is extremely hostile towards anything and everything he deems as a threat; this includes a strong hated of Plastoids. His hostility extends towards his daughter's boyfriends, as he has a history of hunting them and has been known to kill at least one. However, he values loyalty, as it was the quality Cisco demonstrated that ultimately caused Josh to cease his hunt for him. He loves his daughter, saying he would do anything for her. He also respects fellow lawmen such as Joe West.

Josh has a bit of dark sense of humor, stating he didn't know where his daughter's last boyfriend was, making Cisco think he escaped; however, he then stated: "I don't know where you go when you die".

When his powers started to fail, Breacher thought he was ill. However, it turned out he had just hit the point in his life where his body couldn't keep up with his job as a Collector anymore. Despite initial denial, Breacher accepted he had reached retirement age and offered Cisco a job as a Collector (to both replace him and give Cisco more time with Gypsy.)

Breacher has a strong affection for dragons, as he mentioned to Cisco that he planned to visit a farm that breeds them that he's always wanted to visit, following his retirement. This shows that Breacher has a soft spot for animals of a certain caliber.
