Bio:
Born December 25, 1128 Emmi was a special child from day one. Most things came easily to her but the people of her village thought her unnatural. In fact, the older she grew the more fearful the people around her became. With the innocence of a child, she conversed with the earth and learned the healing arts from an ancient woman in the woods. People noted her vague air and thought the worst. Rumors flew about the fey child but Emmi herself saw no harm in what she did. Her mother and father tried to save her from the worst of it but when the plague hit in 1348, superstition had the villagers rioting. Anything unusual was blamed for the sickness and Emmi herself fell under suspicion.
20 at the time, the young girl was confused, terrified and extremely wary of the attention suddenly turned her way. Two years would pass before anyone would act but it was enough time install fear in her heart. When her own family suddenly fell ill, she worked like a madman to save them but one after another, they started to perish. Finally turning to the only hope left, she found the book of magic her mentor had left her and cast a spell. By the next morning, her mother, one brother and one sister were well on the way to recovery.
However, this opened a new can of worms.
Seeing the family suddenly better, the families of the village grew even more agitated. Black gazes followed them whenever they stepped out and witchcraft mummers grew louder. One night, on a full moon, they gathered around the cottage and rioted. Emmi, herself, was pulled from the cottage while her brother was beaten down and her mother and sister burned alive inside the dwelling.
Forced to watch in horror, Emmi was tied to a stake and cursed as the men pilled wood around her own feet. As flames began to lick her, the young woman felt something growing within her and with a terrible wave of power lashed out from her. All those around her were thrown backwards or knocked unconcious. With no family left to speak of, the young woman escaped by horseback, never to return.
From there, Emmi spent the next few years learning the art of white and black magic but always choose to stay on the side of good. Her grief and self disgust made her hid her talents and it was only by happen chance that she meet up with a creature who recognized her powers for a blessing. Seeing great strength and purpose in the young woman, a fae of the queens court made himself known to Emmi and offered her a proposition. In the exchange, the fae gifted Emmi with immortality if she would consent to helping guard the wards that protected the walls between the magic realm and the mortal realm.
Having no other real purpose in life, Emmi accepted and has been doing that very thing.
