Character Name: Emma Rose Riley
Age: 16
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Henderson, Nevada
Physical Appearance (Photo or description): Emma is a tall and fairly skinny girl. Her height is 5'7 and she weighs in at 108 pounds. Her slightly larger than average eyes are a dark green hue and, if looked at close enough, tiny lines of brown littered throughout it. Her face could be considered heart shaped, with barely high cheekbones. A nose that is moderately thin, with moderately thin lips. Emma has an athletic body fit for running, which is her main hobby. She has long brunette hair that reaches the middle of her back. Her bangs usually hang in her eyes, but she has managed to fix them into position and force them to sway slightly to the side.
Emma changes clothes often, but she always has her black beanie and gold locket. The beanie itself is made of plain black fabric, but Emma has sewn various yellow symbols into it. Lightning bolts, yellow-colored roses, and more decorate various parts of the beanie. Emma's gold necklace is a custom jeweler made necklace, only 2 in existence(One for her, and one for her best friend Ana). It is a round locket with a thin chain that hangs just above her chest. The locket itself is the size of Emma's thumbnail, but if it was a rounded circle. It is covered in stylized silver markings that resemble roses and cherries. Inside is a picture of Emma and Ana.
Currently, Emma is wearing a yellow and white striped spaghetti string tank top, a pair of white short shorts, and a yellow hoodie which is tied around her waist to cover up the shorts themselves. On her feet are a pair of white sneakers with a couple of random symbols sewn into their sides, much like her beanie. She also has 5 yellow rubber bands, that she uses mostly to tie her hair back if needed, and a black sports watch on her right and left wrists respectively.
Good, Evil, or Neutral: Good
Strengths: Emma is overly brave. She will often push herself beyond whatever limits she has in order to help or even save a person in need. It is supported greatly by her good heart. Something that most people may take a liking to. Emma has always been extremely fast. While she can't keep up her speed for a large amount of time, she is able to easily outrun most things that would threaten her. Though, that's not to say her stamina takes a hit. She is able to keep a decent speed for a longer length of time than if she just ran at full speed. On top of that, Emma is also fairly agile. If given the time to stretch, Emma can be fairly flexible. Not to a ridiculous degree like a gymnast, but to a fair amount.
Weapon-wise, Emma is capable of using small knives, blunt objects, and a selection of different firearms that her friend Ana has taught her to fire. Though, in any case, Emma will always drift towards using something that will keep her far away from what or whoever she is attacking. On top of all that, Emma has always been smart. Even if she isn't the type to always use her brain.
Weaknesses: Emma's brave attitude is not without it's drawbacks. She often finds herself in situations that are far more dangerous than she can handle single-handedly. This, in part, is because Emma often times doesn't think before she acts. As smart as she can be, she usually acts purely on impulse. While Emma's attitude can win some friends, it's just as likely to lose some. Her constant bad jokes, selfishness at times, attitude towards people she decides she doesn't like, and sarcastic insults, they don't bode well for the target of the above. On the above, for the most part she uses jokes and sarcasm to deal with any emotion or situation she doesn't want to face head on.
Emma is fairly fragile, too. A single hard hit could knock her down/out for a fairly long time. And, considering how easy it is to beat Emma, she is very likely to lose in a fist fight. Or a fight against anything with actual brains. Despite knowing how to use firearms, Emma isn't very skilled in using them. Emma will go out of her way to defend a family member or friends, even if it will make situations even worse. She's not exactly someone to hold back on insults, either, against people she outright despises. Due to her choice of company in Ana, she is also a bit of a troublemaker. This causes the "fun" pranks, cutesy stunts, and anything else she may do for a thrill to cause some ire amongst the people she's staying with. And finally, due to Emma's young and impressionable age, she is very malleable. Learning something new will come a lot quicker than it would for most.
Weapon Of Choice (Within reason): A small pocket knife her brother's fiancé Sara had given her for Christmas. The handle itself is mostly white with a metallic gold color lining the borders. Emma is also partial to any firearm she can handle. She also has a pistol in her bag, one that she conveniently left in her hotel room, that was given to her by Ana. Emma is also a fan of using any large blunt object that she can swing. Whatever keeps her out of arms reach and close to safety.
Personality: Emma is a good and kind person at her core. Something she has picked up from her brother, the person whom she idolizes. Even though, at times, she may be rough around the edges, especially with her sometimes overbearing eccentric behavior, she would help just about anyone given the opportunity. Her strong sense of morales often pull her away from doing anything inherently bad or evil, minus the usual mischief and the odd delinquent-esqe things she will sometimes do. Emma is also prone to throwing out jokes, usually bad ones, or making a snarky comment.
At times, Emma can be extremely selfish. Especially if she feels she might lose something she enjoys. She hates change, on top of all that, so those two don't make for a good mixture. Emma has always been described as weird, whether in an endearing way or insulting, she often acts odd to draw attention to herself. Not that she does it knowingly, it may even be subconscious, but Emma has always been that way.
History: Emma spent most of her child life with her mother and father. Her family, consisting of her father, mother, and brother, was a fairly normal and stable one. Her father owned multiple car garages around Nevada, supplying most of their income. Emma's life was easy in just about every aspect. Money was never a problem, her family was always supportive in every aspect, and she lived well. Even when it came to school, she always did well. Usually Bs or As. At one point she was on the honor roll. It didn't take very long to find out what her favorite hobby was: running. Even as a child, she was speeding around the house before she learned to talk.
When Emma was 8, her father opened a new garage in Texas. Emma had grown so accustomed to Nevada that, after a lot of fussing, Emma stayed with her big brother Sam in Nevada. He gained guardianship of her and they kept living in their hometown of Henderson. Soon after, Emma started getting more involved in school activities. Mainly, track team. Emma quickly became noticed by her coach for her outstanding speed. Enough so that Emma got invited to a regional competition with various nearby schools.
During the competition, Emma found herself nervously shuffling about without a single clue of what to do with the large0e crowds of people. During the relay, the specific competition Emma was signed up for. She quickly took a liking to the girl next to her, an (artificially)redheaded girl by the name of Anastasia Axoacatzin. Though it was just small talk, Ana managed to talk a big enough game to fluster Emma and force her to immediately eat shit and lose. Afterwards, Emma found she made enough of an impression that Ana was willing to talk. After a bit of talking, and an offer from Sam and his girlfriend Sara to Ana's father to go out for burgers, a friendship was born.
Emma continued doing well in school, even with the less than stellar side activities that her BFF had constantly cooked up, and extremely well in track. Even going as far as winning a couple of medals. Though, only if she wasn't in direct competition with Ana. Ana and her family quickly became almost like a family member, with Emma and Sam's. Pretty much just as fast as Sara did. Joining the holiday dinners or spending the night on Christmas that her parents couldn't make. Even though Sara held an odd aversion to Ana, their constant quips became the norm when Ana or her family were visiting. Which was quite often, considering how close both families had gotten.
Emma's life continued on the same, even after her brother started taking over a couple of the garages their father had left and money started rolling in. Though, Emma quickly developed feelings for Ana at around 13 years old. Beyond that of a friend. It was always under her belief that the feelings were always there, but Emma could never understand what she really felt. And, considering how nervous and shy she could be around Ana(both via Ana's demeanor and her newfound infatuation), she never was able to explain or articulate her feelings. Emma tried, buying expensive jewelry with her allowance or trying to find other sneakier, more subtle ways to annouce her love. But it never took.
When Ana brought up a trip to some city in Colarado to watch the premier of some movie, the now 16 year old Emma was completely on board. After a long and awful trip to Willamette, Emma and Ana found themselves attending a surprise signing from the star herself. Though, even more surprising, the mall they were attending quickly became their last safe haven from hordes of ravenous zombies.
