Name: Emily Jane Clarke
Age: 14
Gender: Female
Magical Background: Half-Blood
Magical Affiliation: Light
House: Gryffindor, fourth year
Wand: 16" birch with unicorn tail hair, very easy for simple spells, a big more temperamental with complicated charms
Physical Description:
Personality:
Emily is rather quiet when you first get to know her. It is because she is busy trying to size you up, seeing if you are worthy of talking to her. Once you get to know her, she is super loud, opinionated, and a smart-alek. She is rather book smart and she is not afraid to let you know that. It is hard for her to get along with others because some consider her too brash and snooty. However, as her few true friends know, she is actually extremely kind and willing to go the extra mile for those she cares about. She is not afraid to get a little rough when it comes to defending someone she loves or her own honor. Emily's bold, brunt personality does get her in trouble sometimes. Usually it's just her smart mouth but she has gotten into her fair share of fights in the past.

Physical Description:
Much like her parents, Emily is short at 5'3" with blond long hair that she inherited from her mother and dark brown eyes she inherited from her father. She has a round face with a large smile. Her usual attire consists of a comfortable jeans and t-shirt look. It takes a lot of effort to get her to wear any excessive make up or a dress. Emily is definitely very much a tomboy and wants to remain comfortable.

History:
Emily was the only child of Tristan and Rachael Clarke, born in Greece in a small muggle town. Her mother died of a sudden illness when Emily was only three years old. She does not even remember her. She was raised by her father, now a single parent. Two years later, her grandmother passed away and her father inherited the fortune. They moved to London, where her father was from originally.
There they lived and Emily had a pretty typical childhood. Her father never remarried and Emily was fine with that. She liked having just the two of them. Occasionally he would bring home a girlfriend and Emily would be nice and cordial but she was always secretly really pleased when her dad was single again. She did wish she could have some brothers or sisters. But she still had her close friends who were like siblings to her.
Her father was worried about her, as she was a late bloomer when it came to showing her magical potential. He thought it was because he kept her mostly in muggle schools with muggle friends. She was aware of the magical world but she did not seem to be particularly interested in it. Perhaps it was because her mother was muggle and she wanted to have something that connected her to her mother. However, when she was 10, she was able to perform her first spell, getting angry at her father over something and accidentally shattering all the glass in the cabinet.
Emily received her owl granting her acceptance to Hogwarts when she was 11 years old. Her father was more than proud that she would be able to attend his alma mater. He told her stories about his time there. Emily was super excited as she got herself prepared for the new semester.
Her first three years at Hogwarts have been pretty uneventful. She has gained her small group of friends and has done well in her classes. She won't tell anyone that she gets high grades because she does not want to be labeled as a nerd. But she secretly really does love learning and looks forward to the summer ending and starting her next semester at Hogwarts. Emily is super excited to see what new adventures await.
