- - - - - - - - - - - - - -
LIKES: Summer, laughing, studying, being on top of everything, proving herself, fitting in, water balloon fights, muggle studies, herbology, her family, cats, owls, the color red, the color yellow too, mint and chocolate, sweets, studying, books
DISLIKES: visions, being challenged based on social skills, losing, autumn, rumours, her clumsiness, how she always seems to have trouble finding her, having her feet leave the ground, Quidditch
BIGGEST FEAR: That she will predict the Apocalypse (Yeah, bad!)
PERSONALITY: Brave - Like the Sorting Hat sings, Gryffindors are to be brave and brave is what Emmalia certainly is. Emma has the true heart of the lion and she roars with defiance (or, in other words, stupid recklessness that often lands her in near-death situations/detention) But, personally, she'd prefer to call it admirable courage. It's the truth that her family had cowered all their lives. They'd kept Emmalia sheltered from everything in life and ran at the first signs of harm. Yet, Emma has grown to be the opposite and is altogether stupid, brave, reckless, and only starts thinking about the consequences until it's too late.
Temperamental - Much unlike her soft spoken father but much like her mother, Emmalia has a temper like an eruptive volcano. Her patience wears thin constantly and she can be pretty scary when need be. An example of this would be when she'd gone to her classes with her first year sister and a Slytherin tripped her. As said sister described, her face had contorted into a mask of dangerous calmness. With a few soft words and a few swish and flicks of her wand, Emma had the Slytherin begging on her knees for forgiveness. Except, no fear, this was on a bad day. She doesn't attack unless provoked or she's really stressed. Needless to say, just be careful. This is Volcano Emma we're talking about, anyway. Usually, it's not hard to keep her calm because she's rather tolerant if you know which buttons not to push. But when she's in a a rage...Man, you better run.
Determined - This meaning, when she wants something, she's going to go for it. This usually comes into play at charms which she is, for once, horrendous at. Coming hand in hand with that stubborn determination, she refuses any help. The first time she tried the aguamenti charm, she almost drowned her brother who had proceeded to yell at her until she had to leave the room for concentration. Still, the more she failed at the charm, the more frustrated she got, thus, inflaming her determination. In short, it took two weeks and fifteen soaked and unfortunate victims - I mean, hufflepuffs for her to succeed. And when she did, mind you, she was very triumphant. The hufflepuffs, for once, were mad.
Socially Awkward - Growing up, Emma was sheltered from even the presence of other children. She never really learned how emotions worked or how to really be "cool". Sure, she learned her manners but she rarely understands sarcasm considering the rare times she actually uses it and nor does she get most jokes. She's oblivious to flirting unless it's a dead fact in front of her and she's hard to make friends with because as you attempt to do so, she will politely talk, bury her nose in a book, look up and talk, read, then snap at you to go away. Often times her friends challenge her to competitions concerning social activities which Emma, obviously, fails at.
Kind-hearted - Emmalia is an extremely kind person, every knows that. Despite her temper, she's probably one of the nicest people you'll ever meet and she's always there to be your shoulder to cry on or friend to tell horrible secrets to, or the secret holder. Despite recent events including a violent, moody, Emma, she's one of those people who will stick to you till the end and will always try to be kind to everyone else around her unless they give her a reason to do otherwise or she's just completely oblivious to how she hurt another's feelings. While Emma is pretty bad at comforting because she somehow chooses the wrong words, she's an extremely loyal friend.
Insecure - Emma is the ugly duck in the family. Look at her brother, never really interacted with others before but immediately hits it off and is handsome, fun, and flirty. Then there's boring old Emma who tries a shot at being nice, she's a teacher's pet, and she's always got her nose buried in a book, ready to spit the info right back to you just as the book says if you ask.
Loyal - Loyalty has always been emphasized in the her home. Both Adelita and Cori Forbes were involved in the Wizarding War, both a part of Dumbledore's Army and both had taught their children the most important thing in life - Bah, no, not love, this isn't Disney. Loyalty. That's right. Emma is ridiculously loyal to the point where it gets quite unbelievable. She is true to her word and never ever lets another down when they entrust her with their hopes of her loyalty.
Loud - Let's just say, you always know when Emma's near. Always. It's not like she's an annoying chatterbox...She just...Attracts attention. Isobela's been the center of attention for as long as she remembers. She just stands out as an awkward sore thumb. Her siblings say because she's annoying as shit but others comment that she's just the kind of person who pulls at your attention like something you see out of the corner of your eye that you sometimes dismiss but sometimes hope to catch.
Graceful - Physically, grace is not one of Emma's many qualities, she is clumsy above all. However, as opposed to what one might think, grace is not just a physical trait, it's a way to live your life. Some might also call this class. For example, she does not constantly prance around in clothes that are too small for her body and shoes she cannot walk in, choosing to go for something a bit more elegant. When she eats, she doesn't chew with her mouth open, and she never ever forgets to put a napkin in her lap. It's just a matter of being neat, and sophisticated about the way you choose to do things. Either way, physically or mentally, she has a certain grace about her, and she always stands tall and walks straight, her head held high.
Forgetful - There is no doubt in anyone's mind this personality trait comes directly from her ever forgetful father, Cori. And the young Emma forgets about everything. Some people says it's because Emmalia's too busy with her head in the clouds but, really, she just finds things too difficult to think about all at once. She can only focus on about three things and then tosses the rest out of her head, which, I must say is not the best way to go about with your life but at oh well.

MOTHER: Adelita Forbes (nee Flowers), 41, Daily Prophet writer
FATHER: Cori Forbes, 43, Quidditch team retired player, seer
SIBLINGS: ____/Johnny ____ Forbes
HISTORY: Birth: The family of three sat quietly next to Adelita Forbes's bed. The eldest child, a male named Johnny, slept soundly in his father's lap with his head on his shoulder. Said father being Cori Forbes. And said man tried everything in his power to not burst into sobs. He looked more scared than he had years ago in the Battle of Hogwarts as he stared at the monitor's screen which showed the baby's progression in growth. Only a few hours ago had Adelita cried out that it was time. And, time indeed it was. The former Flowers hissed on the hospital bed as her baby child kicked in a kind of angry way. Cori took one of Adelita's hands and smiled at her reassuringly. His wife wanted to yell at him and ask him if he's ever been in labor...Because it was damn tiring and she didn't need his pity. She didn't have time, though, because one of St. Mungo's doctor's walked in with a friendly smile. "Push." And, that, my friends, is how the one little seer came to be. As the pink bundled baby screamed and weeped in Mrs. Forbes's arms and the two year old Johnny snored away, Cori and Adelita grinned. They then proceeded to list of names...Annabella, Aurora, Kalia, Charice, Loriana, Gretchen, Astrid, Abbiette, Augusta, June, Kathy...Then they stumbled upon Emmalia. Delighted, the couple named the baby Emmalia. Emmalia, as newly named had stopped crying and looked at her parents with a giggle exploding from her throat once the word Emmalia escaped the two's lips. Neville tickled her, Hannah eskimo kissed her. Yes, Emmalia was the perfect name. But, you know, there was still the middle name. Damn Merlin's beard...
Childhood: The young, blonde, Forbes sat on the floor as her father pushed a wand into her hand. He kept demonstrating the swish and flick wand provedure but Isobela was still only two and had a long ways to go until she learned. In her eyes, the wand was a really thin pretzel. So when Neville handed the wand to her, she immediately popped it into her mouth and slobbered on it. Cori Forbes smiled softly, then his smile turned into a beam, and then his beam turned into a chuckle which transformed into a laugh which resulted in a hysterical giggle as he watched Emmalia grapple at the wand, munching her teeth on it vigorously. Emma finally got the hint that it wasn't a pretzel and quit her gnawing. Cori shook his head. At the state she was in, he doubted she'd make the best wizard but hey, who knew. Yes, who knew. By the age of five, Emma had learned some basic charms (through much struggle), excelled in transfiguration and her herbology training, and flew quickly by her Defense Against the Dark Arts while she simply excelled at Potions. Her parents were proud and Cori figured that perhaps he had been wrong...This young girl was a child prodigy.
School Years: The school years had flown by surprisingly wuickly for Emma and she delightedly skipped down the corridors as she rounded corners and finally stopped at the portrait that led into the Gryffindor Common Room. Quickly reciting the password, she scrambled in and doodled on her notebook once she sat down. She went into thinking and thought what the future might hold for her. Of course, that's when the vision started. Her head felt like a brick had been tossed at it as a scene was forced into her head. There was a boy that she vaguely recognized as James Potter then there was Lily Potter and then Albus. This wasn't new news, she'd seen them tons of times before. James was going to win at Quidditch or Lily was going to ace a test! Hurrah! The vision closed with a picture of herself. Dizzy, she grabbed the armchair and panted. Was there a connection between her a d the Potters or was it agian just a Quidditch prediction? Sighing, she prayed for a good next year,
