Biography

Hogwarts years (1982–1989)

Emily began attending Hogwarts on 1 September 1982. She was sorted into Gryffindor House.[3]

Fifth year

Bill Weasley thought she was very beautiful, and she impressed him in their Defence Against the Dark Arts class when she single-handedly used the Stunning Spell and defeated a group of vampire bats. Bill asked Jacob's sibling for advice, but was very nervous about approaching Emily because he had never been in love before.[3]

Jacob's sibling eventually agreed to speak to Emily for him, and she was very surprised by the news. Emily wanted to hear everything, and when she found out that he was very shy, she called him "a prat" and put down the Weasley family by wondering who would ever date one, even if they are good-looking. Jacob's sibling was very angry at her rudeness and defended Bill. When Bill found out about her true personality, he eventually gave up on those feelings for her.[3]

Sixth year

In the 1987–1988 school year, Emily wanted to run the Celestial Ball decorating committee, and supposedly spread false rumours about her fellow competitor, Penny Haywood, in the attempts of hurting their chance of winning.[4]

Seventh year

In the 1988–1989 school year, when Ismelda Murk bumped into Emily and refused to apologise, Emily got hold of Ismelda Murk's diary and proceeded to read it aloud, mocking Ismelda for having a crush on Barnaby Lee and publicly humiliating her in front of many others.[5]

She was present in the Great Hall when Jacob's sibling, Nymphadora Tonks, Tulip Karasu and Jae Kim unleashed jinxed Ever-Bashing Boomerangs.[6]

Personality and traits

Emily was a very haughty, narcissistic, and contemptuous young woman with clearly a very high opinion of herself, who seemed to exemplify the more negative stereotypes of Gryffindors.

It can therefore be implied that she preferred to associate herself with individuals of high social status in the wizarding world, to satisfy her snobbish and elitist nature.

She was also very opinionated and could be rather acerbic when it came to voicing her opinions of others, such as when she derided and humiliated Ismelda Murk, showing her to be a bully towards others she disliked, as well as having a capacity for disproportionate cruelty in the face of even the slightest infraction. She could also be rather competitive and spiteful, as she supposedly spread false and malicious rumours about Penny Haywood in order to beat her over running the Celestial Ball decorating committee, showing her to be very petty with a penchant for gossip. Therefore, her friends only seemed to mock Ismelda with her only out of fear that she would start teasing them as well, showing her to be a stereotypical mean-girl with an overly high opinion of herself with a selfish disregard for other's feelings.

During the confrontation between Emily and Ismelda, a surrounding sixth year Gryffindor girl admitted to not really wanting to bully Ismelda, but "if it's either her or me...", whereas another fellow Gryffindor sixth year outright stated "I don't even like Emily. I'm only friends with her so she doesn't tease me."[5]
