THE OUTER LAYER
Physical Appearance;
Emma takes great pride in her long brown hair. It's her favorite feature about herself and always looks great. When she's at home she usually has to wear it down however, because her parents don't know about the multiple piercings (5) she has on each ear. Her face is aristocratic, evidence of generations of only the purest wizarding blood running through her veins, with snapping brown eyes, heavy lashes, high cheekbones, and a pointed chin.
The way she carries herself through the halls of Hogwarts speaks of old money, old, pure-blood money. Standing at roughly 5 feet 6 inches Emma is neither the tallest or shortest person in her year but she does have a commanding presence. She rules her group of friends with an iron hand in a velvet glove. She’s thin naturally, no sports for her but her skin is a nice tan. Overall, she is the perfect Slytherin beauty, an Ice Queen.

Personality;
Emma is kind of a bitch, a spoiled rotten bitch. What she wants, she gets and if people don't give it to her she goes after it. She loves making her older brother Jackson's life hell but deep down, and I'm talking deeper than the Marianes Trench, she really does love him. At school Emma is considered an Ice Queen. She rules her group of friends with an iron fist in a velvet glove. She's not queen of the school, however, mainly because she doesn't want to be. Under her icy mask she is a quiet girl who sometimes likes to escape to the quiet of the library to just sit and think.
After Emma graduates her parents expect her to join the Death Eaters but she doesn't really know if she wants to. Sure, it's what almost everyone else in her House is doing and as a Markwell it would be a point of pride, but Emma has met a lot of muggle-borns in school. Muggle-borns she respects, not that there is any way she would tell anyone that. For now it really is all up in the air when it comes to what she wants to do with her life.
THE PAST

Relations; all of the Pureblood families, a fact she is very proud of
History;
So all of her life Emma has had it practically beaten into her head that she is better than everyone else because she is a Markwell and a pureblood. Her mother, Alyssa Markwell, and her father, James Markwell, aren't exactly the nicest people in the world. She's seen them do some pretty mean things but they've always been good to her so she never really thought about it. It wasn't until they disowned her older brother, who she secretly idolized her entire life, that she started to question their actions.
When Emma was eleven she of course got her Hogwarts letter, no duh, and of course she was sorted into Slytherin, making her parents proud of at least one of their children. It was sort of hard to be in a different House than her brother, but she learned to deal. After all, she had the pureblood child training of keeping her emotions hidden to rely on. After a while she just stopped caring, burying her feeling deep inside and becoming the Ice Queen everyone now knows her as.
By fifth year she had developed quite the reputation of being a bitch, without any kind of close friend. Sure, she's got a following but other than that, nothing. Emma's habit of heavy partying started in her fourth year, and has only gotten worse. It was when she was photographed partying and drunk off her ass and put on the cover of Witch Weekly that she first expirienced what her older brother had before he was disowned.
Emma's father accused her of embarrassing the family name and tortured her for the first time. It's the worst thing Emma has ever experienced. When he finally stopped Emma was willing to agree to anything he wanted her to. She now had a better understanding of her older brother Jackson. By the end of summer when she was ready to return to Hogwarts, however, Emma was back in the good graces of her father and willing to think that it was only a one time thing, but not stupid to believe that she could get away with messing up again. Instead she has now focused all her energies on being a total bitch as a way to cope.
PUT YOU TO THE TEST
Roleplay Sample;
Corrine Aaron walked down the sunny cobblestone street lined with colorful shop fronts. Her charcoal converse made soft tapping sounds against the ancient and worn street and she looked around Diagon Alley with wondering eyes. Cory had never been a place like this and each time she came it never ceased to amaze her.
As she passed the Owl Emporium she moved to the opposite side of the street. Even not inside the shop Cory could feel her throat starting to close up. Quickly she reached inside her purse, searching for her epipen just in case. Thankfully, Cory was able to pass the Owl Emporium by without going into anaphylactic shock. Breathing a sigh of relief she continued on down the street, now lost in memories.
The first time Cory had ever gone into an owl shop her reactin had been so severe she had been hospitolized for several days. After that Cory had to undergo tests to see if she was allergic to anything else. Turns out she is allergic to cats and certain types of birds, owls included. That pretty much made it impossible for her to own a pet in school, unless she wanted a toad.
When she finally reached her destination Cory gave out a relieved sigh. Her body ached from Quidditch practice yesterday becuase the team captain had made them run fifty laps around the Quidditch Pitch. Florean Fortescue's Ice Cream Parlour was bright and cheerful, the tiles and awnings multicolored, reminding her out of something from the muggle's 1960s. She ordered a mint chocolate chip ice cream cone topped with chocolate sprinkles and took a seat at one of the outdoor tables. Sitting so she faced the cobblestone alley she watched all of the people pass by as she licked her ice cream cone.
