Emberlynn is a striking Wood Elf with waist length, fiery red hair that seems to glow in the sunlight. Her eyes are the color of polished amber, always darting about with curiosity. She wears high quality leather armor over her noble silks, and despite the grime of travel, she maintains an air of effortless elegance. Her movements are fluid and predator-like.

She is as warm and welcoming as a hearth fire when in good spirits, but she possesses a scorching temper if insulted. She finds high society rituals boring but loves the aesthetic of luxury. She is a collector of curiosities and 'unclaimed' finery, driven by a chaotic need to see how things work rather than a simple desire for wealth.

Born into the noble House Highbranch, Emberlynn was always the wildfire of the family. While her siblings practiced diplomacy and floral arrangement, she was busy mapping the castle ventilation shafts and picking the locks on her father's private library. She never felt a need for her inheritance, but she certainly enjoyed the 'collection' of glittering trinkets she accumulated from her family's rivals during boring galas. To her, a locked door is a personal invitation, and a guarded vault is a riddle that needs solving. She does not steal for greed, but for the thrill of the touch and the beauty of the object. Her imprisonment was a result of being in the wrong study at the wrong time. While she was attempting to crack a particularly complex puzzle box belonging to a corrupt magistrate, the magistrate was assassinated in the adjoining room. Found with her tools out and her hands in the safe, Emberlynn was the perfect scapegoat. Despite her protests of 'I was only looking at the mechanism,' she was thrown into the depths of the prison to await a trial that likely won't be fair. She finds the prison locks disappointingly simple, and she is mostly just bored by the lack of shiny things to look at in her cell.
