height, 5’10”
weight, 128 pounds
general appearance Emmeline Vance gracefully stands at 5’10” , making her taller then most of her friends. She has a slim yet somewhat athletic build, although when she is stressed or sad she can easily lose a few pounds as her appetite diminishes under such circumstances. She is certainly not flat chested, far from it in fact, which is something she can thank her mother for.
Her skin is nicely tanned due to the fact that she enjoys relaxing outdoors in the sun. And one of her prized features, her long blond hair generously extends past her shoulders. It has a natural ‘beachy’ wave to it, although she loves wearing it out she often experiments with different styles ranging from plats to ringlet like curls. Emmeline is very particular in caring for her hair and does anything she can to stop split ends, even if that results in her with a pair of scissors in her hand, trimming it until she is satisfied. A smile is regularly on display, due to her persona and when she is genuinely happy her blue-green eyes almost sparkle. However, if she is in a bad mood, her eyes are the first things to give it away. For just one look will allow you to know where you stand.
Emmeline’s style is girly, free-spirited and modern. She holds a large interest in fashion and is regularly seen in designer outfits, both of muggle and wizard brands. Her wardrobe and collection of shoes hold a special place in her heart, however she is just as pleased to wear a nice pair of jeans and a blouse as she is to wear a dress and heels.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

overall personality,
Caring: Emmeline is very caring towards the people she loves: her friends and her family. If there is ever any way that she can help someone she will go above and beyond to do it, even if it requires dropping everything she is currently doing.
Sarcastic: At times bitter sarcasm is Emmeline's fluent, second language. If someone gets on her bad side she can become rather snide and engage in mockery. Sometimes, if she does not know how to deal with a situation she will retaliate with a sharp tongue and find it hard to hold her temper.
Flirtatious: For Emmeline, flirting has almost become innate behavior. She has been interested in the opposite sex upon commencement at Hogwarts, however, she used to steer clear from Hufflepuff men, they were a little too aloof for her liking. She has a weakness for men who are somewhat carefree and reckless, although any good looking man will do really.
Stubborn: If Emmeline makes a decision it is final, there is no changing her mind, even if what she thinks is incorrect. She often tries to get her own way and if she sets her sights on something, she will not give up until she gets it. Her father is under the impression that she inherited her stubbornness from her mother.
Inquisitive: Logical reasoning has always been something that Emmeline has done. She loves trying to understand other people, and what they’re going through. She will often ask questions about almost anything as she loves to extend and develop knowledge on anything she possibly can.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

overall history,
On a warm Spring day Emmeline Charlotte Vance was born to Thomas and Rosalie Vance, both of whom were younger parents, ready to take the next step in their lives. Growing up young Emmeline had a relatively normal upbringing for a pureblooded child, full of etiquette, functions and stories about what to expect once she turned eleven years old. Adjacent to this she also grew up having the best of everything thanks to her family’s wealth and willingness to give Emmeline and her sibling, Abigail the best possible start in life.
At the age of eleven she received her Hogwarts letter and couldn’t contain her excitement. Emmeline was about to make new friends and walk the halls that both her parents and ancestors had walked. This made her determined to do the best she possibly could, to show her parents and more so herself that she could succeed and enjoy her time at school. However, once she stepped of the Hogwarts express she found her nerves had settled and the excitement had grown. She was now ready for a challenge both academically and socially, some children she knew and others she had never even met before. Naturally she made lots of friends due to her easy going and kind personality but also learnt which people to avoid.
The sorting hat had decided on placing her in Gryffindor, due to her loyalty and courage. And from that very day she has worked hard in all her subjects and rewarded herself by engaging in parties and Hogsmeade trips when possible. She ensured that both her families reputation, and her own was not tarnished and whilst she excelled in some classes, she has had to work very hard in others, such as when she had taken herbology as a subject. The only positive she could see in that experience was that it had brought her to the realization that she, and plants did most certainly not work harmoniously.
Throughout her years at Hogwarts she had gained understanding and experience in the many facets of the wizarding world. And for her seventh and final year she wishes to have fun and enjoy her last year as a student, engaging with boys, friends, teachers and the like before she is released into the real world, where assuming adult responsibilities is expected.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

roleplay sample.
"Emmaline Charlotte, you have done well. Go and have a break, but don't get into too much trouble." The all too familiar words circulated in her head, the exact tone of her fathers tenor pitched voice still fresh in her thoughts. It was holidays, something that the eldest Vance had been looking forward to for a long time. Not just for the opportunity to spend time with family and friends but to also experience what it was like to work in her fathers department, Magical Law Enforcement. Thomas Vance took his influential position very seriously and usually made sure his work life was separate from his family life. However, when Emmaline's grandmother had suggested the tall, navy eyed blonde should undertake a modified internship in her fathers department, he couldn't have agreed any more.
After examining her newly painted nails, the blond's eyes scanned the corridor, looking for something to occupy her time. There was plenty of time to fulfill her list of menial tasks to complete, such as filing paper work, organising her fathers schedule, writing letters and the like. But the list wasn't the main priority at the present time. Whilst she had previously agreed to stay out of trouble Emmaline wasn't too sure that she'd be able to grasp such a concept. She had already locked lips in a broom closet with a first year intern on the coffee run and accidentally (on purpose) swapped the snooty old lady at the main desks sugar bowl for one with salt.
Although as mischievous as she was, she didn't usually find trouble, it found her. Allowing a frustrated sigh escape from her lips, she blinked. Surely other people she knew form Hogwarts would be here, it wasn't uncommon for children to attend work with their parents at her age, especially in the holidays. And it wasn't all that uncommon to see someone in attendance of a hearing with the Wizengamot after practicing underage magic at home either, despite what people assumed. Running her hand through her mass of long, styled blonde curls she spoke softly. "Surely someone must be here to help me pass the time"
As she glanced around for something to distract her, she noticed it was unusually quiet. The regular activity and happy vibe surrounding the halls of the magical law enforcement department was not present. Emmeline had noticed a change in not only her fathers disposition, but also some of his colleagues, the jovial aura had been replaced with one resembling what Emmeline could only describe as somber. And whilst people appeared to be positive, she could tell they weren’t. There was a war brewing, and whilst it didn’t appear much on the surface, she knew there was much more to it than what met the eye, she only had to observe her father to tell that.
Aimlessly sauntering down the hallway past various moving pictures of past heads of the department she began to contemplate what life would be like once she left Hogwarts. Her dream of being a healer like her mother or an auror was slowly coming within reach. Whilst she didn’t have a knack or interest for working with plant matter she did enjoy assisting people in any way she could, those who deserved the attention of course. But personally, her desire for equality was far more intense than anything else she had ever believed in. The eldest Vance had no problems with muggleborns practicing magic and failed to understand why anyone else would. To her, witches and wizards were all the same, no matter their blood status or their friends. Awakening from her little daze she quickly spun around, hoping that no one had noticed her pacing up and down the hall in a rather peculiar manner, as it was a most interesting site indeed.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
