Personal Information
Personality
Distant and slow to warm up to people, Emily's preferred scenario is to be alone with a good book. Around large groups of people she often feels quite anxious due to the fact that she has never truly learned how to socialize with others, though she still tries. Because of this she often avoids crowds and social situations and doesn't make many friends, and when she does make friends she is very prone to becoming dependent on them. Confidence is something she sorely lacks leading to her being very tentative to show off her skills to others.
In combat, Emily uses her increased mobility and perception for a rather hit and run type of fighting style, she sticks to the shadows carefully considering her next move before springing out to strike a critical blow and then retreats to prepare another attack. Her abilities allow her to have a decent level of control over a battlefield, making her able to determine where she is needed and be there quickly move in to support her team. She's a team player, and feels most comfortable under a competent leader where everyone has a role to fill.

History
Emily was born to a small family consisting of her mother, father, and brother, the four of them lived easily together as both parents worked good jobs allowing them to afford a nice home with quite a few comforts. She did well in school though her social life was always lacking, she usually just stuck around with her older brother, Idris, for companionship. The two of them together had a very competitive relationship often challenging each other about things like grades, the winner being granted bragging rights. They had fun together and helped each other out when they were in need, and still found time to bicker like true siblings.
For the longest time they lived like this, the two of them were the best of friends and were rarely seen apart. But as the two of them grew older they began to grow apart as Idris found his own group of friends and slowly started to drift away from her. Emily didn't take very well to this, and struggled to find other friends which meant she spent a lot of her free time alone, this was where she turned to reading for her escapism, the local library becoming a sort of safe haven for her. At first she enjoyed the escapism of fantasy novels, but then she took interest in the non fiction side books, taking great enjoyment in learning how the world works.
After exhausting most of the library's contents Emily eventually stumbled upon the history of the rot and the creation of the vanguard academies. She became almost instantly interested in the academy seeing the vanguards as great heroes protecting the common people from the rot! It became a dream of hers to be accepted into their ranks. Her families initial reaction was apprehensive, but they were accepting of her choice and after months of hard work and determination she was accepted to the academy.
