Personal history
Even from birth, she was considered rather peculiar due to her flawlessly pale complexion and silver hair as she was not a High elf, she was, in fact, a Snow Elf. She was born in a family of four consisting of her parents, her and her older brother. They lived in the far-off island of ARGENT the land of the high elves. The birth of a snow elf on argent was so rare it could even be called unheard of.
She was at first instructed in the customs and teachings of the high elves alongside her brother. They learned about the art of rationality, the theory of perfection and the etiquette of a true high-born elf. Her brother took to these ideals immediately, but she still showed some colours of excentrisim which caused some concern from her family and the council of the elders who took a great interest in the siblings' advancement. Though she lacked the spirit of a high elf she didn't lack their affinity to magic casting spells with impressive speed and vigor, but also with an uncontrollable ferocity leading to worse effects, sparks would randomly go flying, masses of mana would disperse and reappear causing major disturbances. Neither did it comfort her that her brother performed them flawlessly and with spectacular grace. She looked up to her brother seeing him as the perfect ideal for an elf. She always tried to reach the glorious peak that was him time and time again, but every time she would still somehow failed. It didn't help that she was so different from everybody else, her peers were looking at her with more fear and disdain than anything else. Her parents didn't seem particularly interested in helping her grow as they scolded her for her misgivings. But the one who tormented her the most was herself. She endlessly told herself that she was not good enough that she didn't deserve to be called a high elf. But she was not alone, a young elf girl by the name of Synthia stood by her listening to her troubles, trying to comfort her and generally just enjoying some time with her. She didn't understand why Synthia did this, but she hoped she would be with her nonetheless.
High elves would have to take a trial at the end of their teenagehood to prove their status as a high elf. Her brother finished the task effortlessly. The trial consisted of a beautiful display of magic. The girl was terrified at the thought of performing magic, but she cleared her mind and headed to the trial. She started simple with basic motions and spells to calm her mind, it seemed rather easy to her, but then some dark thoughts started to pour into her mind the same dark thoughts that have haunted her forever. Her movements became more erratic and vicious bolts would manifest from nowhere and it shortly became a violent storm. Sparks hit the elders observing the display knocking some down.
After the storm has settled down clinging to her knees crying, everyone looked at her with disgust and fear they thought her a mistake, a murderous intent appeared on their eyes, even Cynthia shared their feelings. Her brother stood in a corner disappointed with his arms crossed. They were all ready to attack her but the elders got back and calmed the masses explaining that calmness is one of their guiding principles and they shouldn't so hurriedly jump to actions. After some time of deliberation, the council concluded that Emilia was banished from their land never to return.
