Biography: Emmeline Ilyna Harris came into this world on the 24th of October, 2014. Her name was chosen by her parents, Estoria Harris (Miller) and Richard Harris, because it is something unique. With an origin of German or French, Emmeline (Pronounced Em-uh-lin) suggests a person with a determined spirit and a natural inclination towards achievement. The girl likely possess a strong work ethic and a quiet strength that allows her to overcome challenges with grace and intelligence. Nicknames for Emmeline are Em (Most frequent) or Emmi. She was born in the city of Birmingham just one year after her cousin, Julia.
As a child, she lived in Birmingham. She was a curious, and determined child who loved to achieve. While she was quiet, Emmeline used to her advantage. People often underestimated her, which wasn't pleasant, so she often outwitted them solely by intelligence and grace. About a year after Emmeline was born her other cousin (Julia's sister) Orla was born. Due to this, visits from and to the Evans family increased, and Emmeline slowly started feeling a very deep connection to her cousins.
As Emmeline turned 5, her mother, Estoria decided to start homeschooling her. Estoria, while maintaining an extensive knowledge of witchcraft and wizardry, she also had an equally impressive knowledge of basic things. She taught her daughter well and while there was no doubt Emmeline would excel in magical studies, she did quite well in basic knowledge such as math, and english. Though she did learn about science, like most wizarding kids, her knowledge was slightly more limited due to the fact that magic did bend quite a few laws of science.
A little after her 10th birthday, her mom gave birth to a little baby girl, and Evelyn Harris was introduced to the world.
As she turned older and advanced towards 11, the age she could finally go to Hogwarts, she began developing an even stronger connection with her family. On the paternal side, whom she met and interacted with most, she had her mom, Estoria Harris (Miller), her aunt, Eliana Evans (Miller), her uncle, Leon Evans, her 2 cousins Julia and Orla Evans, whom she was one year younger and older to, and finally, her grandparents, Robert Miller and Emma Miller (Winters). Whereas on the paternal side, with whom she interacted considerably lesser, she had her dad, Richard Harris, her little sister, Evelyn Harris, and her grandparents, Aurelia Harris (Lysta) and Michael Harris. Her whole family, apart from her paternal grandfather who was born and brought up in the USA, was british with long legacies of mainly Ravenclaw and Hufflepuffs.
In 2025, the year Emmeline turned 10, Julia started going to Hogwarts and Emmeline couldn't wait to follow her footsteps and join Julia! But her hopes were shattered shortly after christmas during the christmas holidays. For christmas that year, Emmeline and her family had decided to go over to the Evans family, as to spend time with Julia since she was to come back for her winter holidays on the 23rd of december. They arrived on the night of the 22nd and Julia arrived the next day morning. All was going well until they found out their grandpa, Robert Miller, had been admitted into St. Mungo's over being extremely ill. The next day morning, they rushed over to see him, but despite all their efforts, he could only live till 2 days after christmas. The days following the incident were subdued and gloomy. But the horror truly arose over inheritance. Her grandpa had left behind a lot, and specified things well in his will, but there were a few technicalities. It resulted in her dad, Richard, and Julia's dad, Leon. Because of this, Richard made the hasty decision of moving to the USA, and living in her grandpa's ancestral home in Washington D.C. Her hopes for Hogwarts were crushed as easily as paper, leaving her with no choice but to attend in american Wizarding school of Ilvermorny. She protested against it, pleaded, and begged but her father wouldn't budge. His ego won over him, costing him the price of happiness.
To this day, Emmeline doesn't who was right, neither who she supports in the fight. All she longs for is to have her family whole again. To have it peaceful and happy as it should be. Estoria and Eliana, being twins, couldn't be forced to close their contact. They still owl each other every now and then, sometimes allowing Julia and Emmeline to send owls to. But that didn't close the enormous hole in Emmeline that just kept getting bigger. At this point, making friends at Ilvermorny was her best hope.
First Instance of Magic: Emmeline's first show of magic appeared when she was 7 on a perfectly ordinary day. She and her family were over at her grandfather's ancestral home in Washington D.C, where Michael Harris, her grandfather, had grown up. The girls, Emmeline and her cousins Julia and Orla who had accompanied her for the holiday, were playing around to cheer up Emmeline for losing a game. They accidentally knocked over books from a bookshelf. The adults came to see what the commotion was, and saw that half the books had fallen over. They were understandably angry, and unanimously told the three girls to pick them all up and put it back. Normally, this task would have been fine, but since the family was old, and loved reading, their bookshelves were huge, often taking up half the wall, which meant there were quite a few books. Julia and Orla got to work feeling sulky, but since Emmeline was already annoyed and a little bit cranky, she got uncharacteristically angry and threw a fit. During the small phase of her shouting at the parents, mainly her mom, the books shifted themselves and magically started rearranging themselves exactly as they were previously.
