Character Number- First Name- Emicha "Em" Talack Age- 22 years old Gender- Female Sexuality- Bisexual Appearance- ![]() Em is of an average height, five-foot-six. She has a very toned physique from her years spent as a dire rider, but is lean instead of bulky. Her body is not very feminine, for she has a runner's build and lacks curves. It doesn't bother her, though. She prefers being strong and fit over being traditionally beautiful. This is not to say that she is hideous. She can be quite attractive. Her angular face, straight nose, and gray eyes give her a striking appearance that some might call pretty. She doesn't try to look good, though, avoiding makeup and keeping her blonde hair simple and shoulder-length. Emicha most often looks indifferent to the world, usually sporting a slight smirk and a slightly raised eyebrow. She isn't one to emote easily, and prefers to not let her feelings show. Her fair skin burns easily, and so she doesn't expose it to the sun much, but she has been known to acquire a light tan on occasion. Her body has numerous scars, some originating from the war with the Taints, and others from her childhood. The most peculiar is a large burn scar on her left shoulder blade. Like most Vidalaners, Emicha prefers simple, practical clothing in dark, monochrome colors. Her typical attire consists of comfortable, fitted black pants, knee-high dark leather boots, and dark shirts. When it is cold, she favors fur-lined boots and gloves, as well as a sleek silver and black wolf-fur cloak. It is rumored that the cloak is made from the pelt of her dead dire wolf, but in reality it was a going-away present from her family when she left home to become a dire candidate. Emicha wears the fang of her old dire on a leather cord around her neck at all times, keeping him close to her heart, literally. Personality- Before the war toughened her up and matured her a bit, Emicha was a renowned prankster. She and her best friend and fellow dire rider, Kas, were always getting into trouble. Training helped Emicha gain discipline, but her mischievous streak never quite died out. She was nevertheless intelligent and a great learner, though somewhat lazy and lacking in dedication and attention span. Emicha's friendly, open nature and good humor were infectious, helping her make friends despite her shy nature. She was more outgoing among friends than strangers, and showed respect for her elders, except on the occasions when she would mouth off superiors she didn't like. She was also an exceptional flirt. Her friends used to always tease her about being a "womanizer." Emicha, while for the most part mild-tempered, has been known to erupt into sudden bouts of fury. Usually this happened if one of her friends was in a spot of trouble, or during battle, but sometimes there was no clear cause other than simple rage issues. Some speculated that she was feeding off of her dire's emotions, because he had a fiery personality. Others blamed hormones. While she still retains this hairtrigger temper today, she manages to keep it in check. The death of her beloved dire and the loss of many friends to the war were a reality check for Emica. She grew up. Though she still retains her fun-loving, bubbly side, Em is much more reserved and serious. She is less quick to smile and has a hard time relaxing and letting loose. She is quieter and her humor is more dry and sarcastic. She can be downright mean at times, but it is rarely on purpose. Her flirting has died down a lot. She has, ironically, become more reckless. Seeing the fragility of life first-hand has given her a "live-like-there's-no-tomorrow" mindset. Rank- Candidate History- Emicha was born in a small village just outside of Vien, the third child in her family. Her father, Laron, was a hunter and fur-trapper, making a decent living by selling his furs in the capital. Her mother, Nika, was a homemaker, raising Emicha and her six siblings mostly by herself. Emicha was always a daddy's girl, and would pester her father to take her along on his trips to the capital and into the woods. As a result, she became quite as adept in the forest as her two older brothers. Emicha was a tomboy from birth, and rebelled against the traditional womens' roles that her mother desperately tried to trap her in. As a result, her relationship with her mother was strained, and they rarely spoke. When she was eighteen and a half years old, Emicha met a dire rider from the Academy on one of her and her father's trips to Vien. She immediately fell in love with the great dire wolf, as well as the lifestyle of the riders. It didn't take much for her to convince Laron to let her accompany the rider and dire wolf back to the Academy to become a candidate. She left straight from the city, only saying good-bye to her father, who gave her his wolf-fur cloak as a parting gift. She has not been home since. At the Academy, Em became fast friends with her fellow candidate, Kas Neeng, a young man from the Zavan Plains. Kas, too, was looking for a better, more adventurous life. They made a pact to both stay at the Academy, even if neither of them bonded with a wolf, so that they could at least become soldiers and fight the Taint. Naively, they had a glorious image of battle. After bonding with her silver duskstrider, Storm, Emicha embraced the lifestyle of a warrior and a rider. She loved the physical and mental challenges, and forced herself to exceed in even the areas that she wasn't strongest in. The war passed with little action on her part, that is, until the Tainted ones attacked the Academy. It was during that battle that, in an attempt to lead a group of wyrmlings to safety, Emicha and Storm were attacked head-on by a young Tainted dragon and its rider. They were desperately outmatched. Storm was killed, and Emicha woke up a week later with little memory of what had happened and a burn on her shoulder. Em was never quite the same after she lost Storm. She became withdrawn and angry, and suffered from a bout of severe depression. This did not stop her from aiding in the rebuilding efforts, though she did not fight for the rest of the war. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but she was deemed physically and psychologically unfit for battle. After the Taint Lord was defeated and things began to return to somewhat normalcy, Kas suggested that Emicha try to bond with another dire, to fill the void that Storm had left. Emicha was appalled, and left the Academy on horseback for many days. It was there, camping in the wilderness, that she had a dream in which she was flying astride a dragon, fighting the Taint in the air. Taking it as a sign from the Heavens, Emicha returned the next morning and became a candidate for the next hatching, much to the surprise of Kas and her other friends.
