Physical Description: Emil has a slightly boyish frame and stands on the shorter side at only 4’5. They have grey-blue eyes, red hair, light skin with freckles, and they occasionally deal with rosacea on their face.

Mental Description:
- Emil usually behaves well, but they are open to the idea of ‘bending’ rules and traditions if they feel it necessary to make a point or accomplish something important.
- Emil enjoys the more ‘practical’ aspects of magic — to them, theories serve little purpose if they don’t have any immediate connection to concrete results
- Emil has a habit of conducting ‘experiments’ on anything and everything. These experiments can range from something as mundane as how long a certain brand of ink lasts in different types of ink pots — all the way to the more extreme ideas. They were once grounded for attempting to ‘test the physical reflexes of a Boggart in regards to blunt force trauma’ (which was Emil’s story when their father found them standing outside a Boggart-infested trunk with a Beater bat when they were eight years old)
- Emil struggles with their gender identity at times. They are comfortable appearing and performing as masculine or feminine depending on their mood, but they never quite feel like they belong as a boy or a girl.

Biography:
Emil is the youngest of three siblings in the loud, disruptive, and still loving Scovich family. The Scovich line is mostly a wizarding line, though there are just a few Muggles too many in the family history for people to consider them ‘pure blood’ — a sentiment that the family has always been perfectly fine with.

Emil’s childhood was filled with seeking out quiet nooks and crannies in the family home to read, play with puzzles and riddles, and experiment on whatever had their fancy at the moment.

First Instance of Magic:
Emil’s first instance of magic was on the roof of their family’s house in Galway at the age of eight. While getting frustrated with a particularly stubborn puzzle, they let their frustrations out by kicking the house’s chimney — and accidentally turning the entire upper quarter of it into a neon pink array of flowering blossoms.
Their parents were both amused and yet still playfully ribbing Emil about the incident to this current day. It even led to their mother’s affectionnate nickname for them: ‘Cherry Blossom.’
