Backstory:
Emma grew up a happy suburban child with her twin brother, Thomas. Their parents loved them and they seemed to live a boring, American dream type of life. Emma use to be bubbly and outing. She grew up with ballerina lessons and became active in field hockey at school. Her grades were around B average range. Her style was also pretty normal for a teenage girl. That was until Thomas committed suicide when Emma was 15. Emma found him hanging from a beam in the ceiling of his room. She instantly got help, but it was too late. After the funeral Emma started to withdraw and started to study the occult. She was obsessed and determined to prove that there was an afterlife. Her heart could not bare the burden to know Thomas no longer exist. He was her twin and best friend and she felt like she had failed him because he did not come to her.
Emma started using technology like audio and video recordings to try and capture the ghost of her brother in his room. Any hint to figure out why things happened the way they did. There was not a note or anything left behind to explain the circumstances leading up to the event. He had seemed happy and care-free. A part of her was angry that he did not come to her for help and another part of her felt guilty because she had not noticed his suffering. Through her investigations she never recorded much, just small whispers here and there or small orbs capture on video. It wasn't until she went into his room one day to mourn and picked up his favorite book did she have a flash of severe anguish and depression. It jolted her like lightening and she found herself involuntarily crying. She had no idea what happened but could only assume those were the feelings of Thomas before he took his life.
Emma continued to explore her gift by going to abandoned places and touching objects. However, whenever strong emotions came over her she became fatigued after. Some of the feelings she also picked up lingered and became a part of her, darkening her demeanor. There were also a few encounters with people by brushing up against them or touching their skin and she would be flooded with emotions that were not her own. Her gift seemed to be growing and it was frightening her. Emma became accustomed to wearing gloves at all times to prevent unwanted emotions invading her essence until she chose to use her ability.
Emma continued to become obsessed with the afterlife and started to study witchcraft, the occult and any other religions or theologies that promised communication with the dead. She started to change over time and began to wear black and expressing herself through body accessories like tattoos and piercings. When she was 18 she joined a paranormal investigative team and started to travel all around. She used her tech skills to help set up equipment and to gather possible evidence of the great beyond.
