Character Name: Emma Millstein Canon: Trails of Cold Steel, 15 Strangers Round 4/6 CRAU Canon History:Here, up through the Trails of Cold Steel II section.
As for the CRAU portion: Post-CS1, Emma got isekai'd to a magical murder castle. She had to deal with a lot of guilt about Rean getting yeeted away on Valimar AND had to watch her new friends die, so that was Great™ for her psyche. Then, during week 4, she was accused of murdering her little brother figure, a crime she didn't commit. She even got voted guilty, and was about to be executed for it except that something stepped in at the last minute to save her. Unfortunately, two days later she got her soul ripped out and died anyway, despite a seriously awesome fight scene full of Peter Man metaphor. RIP. No one from her group was revived at the end of her round.
Arthur Charles, one of her friends and confidants (and crushes) in the murder castle, got re-isekaied later on. He proceeded to not die long enough to help destroy the Big Bad, partially by declaring his love for her, which she got to witness from the afterlife. She somehow managed to not double-die of sheer embarrassment and feelings, and thanks to the Power of Love, got brought back to life.
She and Arthur decided to strike up a relationship, but first they both needed to go back to their home universes to deal with everything being on (somewhat literal, somewhat metaphorical) fire. They agreed to meet again someday and adventure together, though.
Unfortunately, Emma went back home and then CS2 happened, so that's Great™. That's where I'm calling her canon point for now!
Canon Personality:
Quiet, kind of shy
Hates being in the spotlight
Studious and hardworking
Caring
A bit of a worrywart
Very critical of herself and quick to blame herself if things go wrong
Absolutely terrible at subtlety and keeping secrets
AU History: Emma's family has always been a little... well... weird. For as long as she can remember, her family has dabbled in magic— potions and medicines, spells, reading the future... and honestly, all of the members have an affinity for animals such that they may as well have animal familiars, even if they can't strictly communicate. Emma's not really sure what they are, and her grandmother— the family matriarch— has never really bothered to give a name. Or any explanation, really. She seems to be kind of allergic to those.
Emma lost her mother when she was young (and her father has never been in the picture— Emma hasn't the slightest who he is or might be), so she and her elder sister were raised by their grandmother. Her grandmother did want her to experience the world outside their little corner of it, so Emma has always attended public school, although she never really got close with many people. She was widely ostracized for being strange, because despite having it drilled into her that magic was to strictly remain a secret, little bits of her family heritage always slipped through the cracks.
Her sister has since left the family to pursue her own dreams. Her grandmother is running a scam fortune-telling business (while knowing full well it's all a scam, of course— she could do a real reading, but hey, the customers want the ~drama~!). And Emma herself is now 16, in high school, and while she's still not doing great socially, she's at least on the fast track to becoming the class valedictorian.
AU Personality Differences: Not really that much to note!
