Features: Emelia is one of those people who without makeup looks like nothing more than a child her own age but when the lipstick comes out she looks much older. She wears her blonde hair long and it stops under her armpits, but she’s been known to make radical changes like chopping it short because she “feels like it”. Her eyes are a light blue and she finds them to be very plain so she compensates for the bland color by caking them in dark eyeshadows when she wants attention. She’s 5’6 and lean (she walks a lot and doesn’t own a car).
Sexual Preference [Optional]: She swings both ways but prefers men
Ethnicity: Irish/German descent
Marks/Tattoos/Visible Scars: She has a heart tattooed to her upper left thigh that she got when she turned eighteen because it seemed like a cool idea at the time. It only shows when she wears a bathing suit or super short shorts.
__________________________________________________________
Flaws/Weaknesses: She’s impatient and mild tempered which can make her difficult to handle and because of it she has a lot of acquaintances but no friends that she can really trust. She likes to think she has great judgment but really it sucks. Then again it might just be she doesn’t care to use her better judgment. She can be very self destructive but usually it’s behind closed doors. She’s also a bit of a klepto so she gets in trouble from time to time when she gets caught. So she’s not the best klepto but she thinks she’s decent.
Skills/Strengths: Emelia can be very loud at times and she’s not afraid to voice her concern about the things she’s passionate about. She has one of those voices that you hear in a crowded room if she wants it heard. When her heart is set on something (which isn’t often) then she works hard to get what she wants and dedicates herself to it. She also likes singing and does it often. Not professionally but when she’s walking down the street she’ll sing a little song and bounce to the melody in her head.

Other Information: She’s one of those people who likes to have fun and doesn’t care what other people think about her. Although if you don’t like her she’d rather you tell it to her face so she can flip you the bird. She also does a great job of “looking the part” depending on what that part may be. She usually has to dress up in business attire for work but once she’s done she’s in her usual casual garb.

History:
Emelia was one of those people who believed the stupid superstitious stuff that others didn’t. She believed in supernatural ghost stories and that there were more conspiracies in the American government than there were churchgoers in church. Then again she had a perfectly good reason to believe in all the things that other people thought of as silly. She was a witch. A bona fide I can turn off lights by snapping my fingers witch. Most people would say she’d fallen off her rocker but that was why she didn’t just tell people that she was a witch. It was none of their business what she was and wasn’t anyway.
Born to Evan and Stacy Birch, Emelia was about as normal as purple grass. They were sweet and loving parents but Emelia along with her older brother Ethan were just bad apples it would seem. Ethan was three years older than Emelia and when she was thirteen they used to sneak out when their parents went to bed. They’d meet up with other people to smoke cigarettes and drink beer. It was through Ethan that she got all of her bad habits that stuck with her as she grew older. When she was turned sixteen Ethan decided to join the Army and a year later was shipped overseas. Everyone was proud that he’d decided to turn around and do something with his life. Of course that didn’t mean when he had time off and came home he didn’t go out and party with his kid sister. And nobody was more fun to party with for Emelia than her own brother.
In June Emelia turned twenty and although she’s still not legally able to go to bars and be served alcohol she’s gotten very skilled at applying makeup in a way that makes her look older than she really is. That and showing a little leg never hurt. She’s unemployed but when people ask she says she’s ‘in between jobs’ to make her sound a little less like a hobo. She’s also looking to move out of her parents’ house and get a place of her own. Only she needs to find herself a steady job and maybe even buy a car before she can move out.
RP Sample:
Claire had dust the entire apartment down, picked up a few random pieces of cat hair that Luna must have shed the night before, and threw a bunch of dishes in the dishwasher so that they would be out of sight.
Luna was laying on the back of the couch just watching Claire run around doing all the cleaning. The cat licked her paw and decided maybe she ought to clean herself as well.
When Claire finally finished picking up her messy little apartment, she glanced over at the microwave clock to see it read 6:52. She sighed with relief, glad that she had finished and looked around her apartment. It still looked a mess.. not a dirty mess just... disorganized. She knew she didn't have much time left and decided to just head to the bathroom, change into a different top, run a comb through her hair and brush her teeth.
After she spit out a mouthful of toothpaste and wiped her face off with a hand towel she decided to kick off her heels and throw on a pair of socks. Because her floors were completely wood she nearly slipped trying to get to her slippers but grabbed hold of a corner of the bed and caught herself. She slipped on her slippers and heard the doorbell ring.
