I'm a science genius girl.
I won the science fair. I wear a white lab coat, DNA strands in my hair.

Character Information:
Character Name: Ema Skye
Fandom: Ace Attorney (game one)
Age: 16
Occupation: student, technically
Physical Description: Ema is a young sixteen. Standing at about five-foot-even with curves that are slight enough to be easily hidden under fabric, it’s not difficult to mistake her for being a few years younger than she already is. Scientifically (more specifically, biologically) speaking, she still has some maturing to do.
Her stick-straight brown hair is usually partially-pulled back into a bun. On top of her head perches rose-tinted glasses, which she insists are vital to her work. She has large blue-green eyes peeking out from under her bangs, a round face, and ears that stick out slightly more than she’d like. Rarely, if ever, is she seen without her lab coat or her small bag of science, both adorned with buttons that serve no purpose outside being cute. Under the lab coat is usually her school uniform, not that Ema attends much these days.
Personality: Ema is bright, cheerful, and surprisingly friendly considering her spark. While her love of science is extremely obvious--she lights up like a kid at Christmas at the mere mention of it--she hasn't developed the sort of cackling, maniacal personality that one might expect from someone who first broke through two years ago (more on that in a bit). She's generally approachable, assuming that someone doesn't mind listening to science fan-babble for hours on end if she's currently excited about something.
That doesn’t mean that she doesn’t have the mad-scientist tendencies, however. Her "I am sharing science with you whether you like it or not' chatter is a symptom, for starters. Furthermore, Ema does have a tendency to apply scientific inquiry at precisely the wrong times, and she can come off as cocky and a bit consdescending when it comes to science. She is, after all, nearly a scientific investigator (in her own mind, anyway). At her age, no less!
Due partially to her age, Ema also has a propensity toward hero worship. She’s a very loyal fan, and will generally stick with her object of interest through thick and thin.
Strengths: Ema’s greatest asset is her mind; overall, she’s an intelligent person who’s quick to pick up new concepts, particularly scientific ones. When faced with something unfamiliar (or even a new idea about something she's seen every day), Ema makes it a point to record it--she's an excellent note-taker. While her personal specialty is chemically-based, she also has a passing understanding of mechanics and biology. Not enough to really amount to much of anything, but she finds the extra knowledge helpful when it comes to her work.
Also, although Ema probably wouldn't think of it in such terms, Ema is pretty. That can be a strength in the right situation.
Weaknesses: Ema’s love of science is a double-edged sword. It makes her very detail-oriented, and as such Ema has a tendency to miss the big picture. Furthermore, where Ema excels in scientific facts and calculation, she often falls short when it comes to common sense. She doesn’t always act with the proper amount of caution or forethought, and often the conclusions that her investigations yield fail to make much sense when applied to a real-world scenario.
Despite her spark, she hasn’t quite mastered how to handle stressful situations. She resorts to the 'flight' portion of the fight-or-flight instinct, either by physically fleeing an undesirable situation or working herself up into a faint. On the rare occasion that she does choose to fight, she flails without any strategy and is overall extremely ineffective.
History:
Ema Skye has lived in Brassburg her entire life. She was born to upper-middle-class merchants, the younger of two daughters. The four of them lived comfortably enough; they were by no means rich, but they had a roof over their heads and only a few boarders, which counted them among Brassburg’s fortunate.
When Ema was about six, her parents were killed in an unfortunate accident that involved a carriage and a clank (they were in the carriage and had no idea the clank was there, bad things ensued). Ema’s sister, thirteen years her senior, was already rising in rank among the city’s law enforcement, so between the Skye’s savings and that income the two sisters managed to keep the roof over their heads. Things weren’t as comfortable, but they survived well enough. Having no other family, the two sisters grew close.
And so things continued until Ema was fourteen. By then, her sister had risen to second in command of law enforcement (which, despite being an agency choked with bureaucratic stagnation, still paid pretty darn well at the top). Ema, being related to someone so high up the totem pole, was a common sight around the department, usually waiting for her sister to finish up so they could walk home together.
One night, Ema was waiting in the chief’s office for her sister, as usual. A murder suspect escaped questioning and was looking for a way out of the building. His desperate search led him to the chief’s office, where he met with Ema. Eager to dispose of any witnesses, the suspect attacked her. A city prosecutor had followed him into the room and intervened to save Ema, a move that ended up costing him his life. Ema, meanwhile, worked herself into such a panic that she fainted—even now, she’s not entirely sure what happened to kill the man who saved her life.
For once, the court proceedings were swift and merciless; Ema’s sister pulled a lot of strings and made a lot of deals to make it happen, and the case was soon advertised citywide to promote the efficiency of the law enforcement department (not that the agency actually was efficient, mind you). The investigation indicated that Ema herself may have accidentally killed the man who saved her while trying to get them to stop fighting, a hypothesis that was quickly swept under the rug.
As the murderer went to trial, Ema found herself feeling useless. She couldn’t remember a thing about the night she was attacked, and the only other would-be witnesses were either dead or not talking. There had to be a way to figure out what happened without trying to piece together vague clues and spotty testimony. There had to be a way to solve crimes without something as uncertain as conjecture. There had to be.
The answer, obviously, was science.
Science…
And so, at the age of fourteen, the young spark Ema Skye broke through. She locked herself in her room and refused to come out for anything other than to get away from the smoke when her chemical experiments (inevitably) exploded. Between Ema’s sparking and the fallout from the trial, the once-close sisters drifted apart. They still live together, but it’s a terse living arrangement.
Two years have passed since then. While Ema is still technically a student, she’s usually seen wandering around Brassburg in search of new science. The Skye family, after all, hasn’t produced a spark before, so there’s no basis from which Ema can draw. She has a lot to catch up on.
