Emilia

Emilia is a beautiful half-elf with long silver hair and purple-blue eyes. She wears a white and purple outfit along with a white flower in her hair. Although she appears to be in her late teens, Emilia's chronological age remains unknown, though mentally she has been stated to be in her early to mid-teens. She has styled her hair in a variety of ways, as per her contract with Puck, the Beast of the End was the one who arranged her hairstyle.

Born and raised by her aunt in Elior Forest, Emilia is a half-elf terribly beloved by the spirits. However, during the Permafrost of Elior Forest, her memories were locked away, and she was frozen for approximately 100 years. After being watched over by Puck, she eventually became a Royal Selection candidate in the hopes of unfreezing the residents of the forest. Through many trials and tribulations, including mass discrimination, she came into her role well, holding many feats under her belt, including helping to defeat the Sin Archbishop of Greed and the Great Rabbit, becoming the administrator of the Pleiades Watchtower, and forming an alliance with Vollachia.

Emilia is a very kind, good-natured, and energetic girl who is also incredibly selfless and likes to take care of others, though she herself sometimes refuses to admit this, instead thinking of it as her own selfishness or something everyone would do in her position despite that often not being true. Emilia has a tendency to use a myriad of archaic words, such as "dunderhead". This quirk of hers is mostly pointed out by Subaru, who has a tendency to tease her about it, though Emilia doesn't pay it any mind. Fortuna has also questioned where she had picked up such a vocabulary. Furthermore, Emilia also has a strong tendency to drag out the word "really", which can be best observed when she's talking about something dear or important to her. This quirk was likely picked up from Fortuna, who had the same verbal tic. She is rarely angered by the people around her, only having been angered by the despicable actions of Pandora, Regulus, and Aldebaran's betrayal thus far.

She is a poor liar as well, to the point that people would just be suspicious of her if she tried. She also has a strong belief in promises, having been raised by Fortuna to believe that if someone makes a promise, they should always keep them, something she took to heart not just with the spirits around her but also with the people she interacts with. She is someone who believes in a person's good nature, and she displays a kindness similar to Subaru's, typically wanting to befriend others even despite race, appearance, and even position putting herself and others at odds, and she does not want to fight with others if she can help it, preferring to talk with her enemies and understand them rather than fight if it is an option. That said, if she is forced to, she will enter a fight with the intention of killing if it is necessary, though her fighting style still focuses on capturing her enemies alive, something very reminiscent of her gentle nature.

Just like the other Royal Selection Candidates, Emilia is also driven by a strong motive which shapes most of her actions, be it rational or irrational. Following her awakening by Puck in Elior Forest, she desperately tried to do something about the frozen elves in the forest. She cleaned them daily, talked to them, and spent a great deal of time and effort with them, trying to somehow get rid of their icy fate to absolutely no avail.

About a century ago, Emilia lived with her aunt on her father's side, Fortuna, in Elior Forest.[14] For reasons not known to her, she was considered a rather special child and was subsequently forced to spend most of her days isolated from the other elven villagers in a place called the "Princess Room" with only Fortuna and her dolls as company. Eventually, her frustrations reached a boiling point, and in an act of defiance, she broke her promise to not leave her room only to venture into the forest to search for everyone.

Emilia and Geuse spent time together; however, sometime later, the duo, together with Fortuna, who supposedly quickly caught wind of Geuse's and Emilia's meeting, went on a walk around the forest. There, Emilia revealed her fairy-friends, leaving both Fortuna and Geuse in utter shock. When the two argued about how she could develop her potential abilities as a spiritual arts user, Emilia commented how they were like her parents, which left Fortuna greatly embarrassed. When Fortuna asked her to return to the Princess Room, Emilia made her promise to let her see Geuse again.

Just as she was about to leave, however, disaster struck, and Emilia's life was changed forever.
