Em always wears a necklace with a single lavender petal inside of it, which was a gift from their mother, before they moved to Acostead.

Personal history
Emerald Brightrunner was born to Jewel and Clavis Brightrunner in 3027 in the small town of Bleakburn. They would spend the next 16 years there with their family, attending grade school, until Emerald came out to their parents. While such basic concepts of gender and sexuality no longer exist throughout much of Eldcolary, there are still some who cling to the old beliefs in the Southern Settlements.
Jewel was mostly supportive of her child, but Clavis was absolutely furious about it. He threw Em out of his house with just the bare necessities in a bag. They managed to make their way to Acostead where they worked for a small shop, called the Mystic Cat while making their way through a local college. While at this school, they got the attention of a BioTechnica headhunter, who impressed with their skills, offered them a job as a fixer.
At the age of 22, just out of school, they began their work as a corpo fixer, providing various merceneries and gangs with jobs that BioTechnica didn't want on the official records. It was during this time that they met a member of the Glauxians, a small religious group in the Lower Districts who were trying to bring back true magic to the world of Eldcolary. Since then, they have worked tirelessly not only at their job, but at bringing back the fabled Glauxian Weave in the hope for a better life.
Gender Identity
Em Brightrunner identifies as non-binary and uses They/Them pronouns. They came out to their family at the age of 16, after working through how they wanted the world to perceive them. Since then, they have had several surgeries and pieces of cyberware installed to help them better feel at home in their body.
Sexuality
Em has yet to have an actual relationship with someone, as they are too busy working as a fixer at BioTechnica. However, they have experessed interest before in people of multiple genders, and have said they best identify as Pansexual.
Education
After attending grade school in their hometown Bleakburn, Em went on to attend a small college in Acostead where they got top marks in all their classes. As all test results are sent to the various corporations, BioTechnica took an interest in Em and recruited them fresh out of school at the age of 22.
Social
Religious Views
Em belongs to a small sect of people called the Glauxians, who believe that it is possible to reconnect to the Glauxian Weave, the source of all magic in Eldcolary before Nox Sanguinis. Much of the sects' work centers around locating ancient texts that could provide information on how to re-access the long-lost magic of Eldcolary.
Hobbies & Pets
Fixers are not allowed to have pets, but Em still manages to keep a small lizard in their living arrangements which they are careful to keep out of sight. It is a small beaded lizard which can be found all around Em's hometown of Bleakburn.
For hobbies, they tend to spend the little bit of free time that they get between work and sleep to work on a collection of short stories set in a world beyond The Great Seal. They aspire to be a writer one day, but until then, they must work the soul-crushing job of a fixer.
Speech
Em tends to stand out wherever they go as they hail from Oppida Meridionalis (The Southern Towns) and have a very clear accent.
