Their open mind and philosophical view motivates them to wander around the world in search of the meaning of life. Sagittarius is extrovert, optimistic and enthusiastic, and likes changes. Sagittarius-born are able to transform their thoughts into concrete actions and they will do anything to achieve their goals. Freedom is their greatest treasure, because only then they can freely travel and explore different cultures and philosophies."
Element: Fire
Elemental Description: "As one would expect, those graced by Fire are fiery, indeed. They are enthusiastic and sometimes larger than life. Just like a fire that is left untended, however, Fire signs can burn out of control — so it’s best to tend those embers.A Fire sign is also an indicator of creativity. This element manifests itself in creative and unique ways, and those in its glow are wonderfully courageous and lively spirits. Those influenced by a Fire sign are self-sufficient, spontaneous and possess a tremendous zest for life."
Wand: Straight 10 Inch Sturdy Fir Wand with Hippogriff Feather Core
Wand Description: This wand is made out of Fir wood. A wand of Fir chooses a wizard or witch that is not easily done away with. This wand type is also called a "Survivor's Wand." The core of Emmaline's wand is a Hippogriff feather. Just like the animal from which it comes, hippogriff feathers being used as a wand core produce wands that are stable and versatile; however, they must be respected by the wand caster or risk having this wand turn against them.

Emmaline's Character Video​

Overall Personality:
Emmaline grew up taking care of her younger sister in a “perfect” world her mother created. She has constantly had to keep up appearances, be cheerful, and make sure her sister does the same. Her family life is a lot of pressure. Emmaline often thinks about how she looks to others and cares very much about opinions. Her mother has instilled that habit into her .Emmaline is very into fashion and appearing as she “should.” She attempts to push this out of her mind and be less judgmental, but it is often difficult for her to do this. In a way fashion is an art form for Emmaline and a way to express herself. Emmaline's mother allowed to her dress however she wanted as long as it was up to her standards of style. This gave Emmaline a creative outlet as long as she looked “put together” enough for her mother. However, Emmaline often blames her mother for all the pressure she puts on her. In this way, Emmaline likes to rebel in little ways. She sneaks out at night to watch the stars from the roof to her house or she gives her sister an extra scoop of ice cream for dessert.

[Professor Emmaline Hopkins]

Mother:

Name: Esme River Hopkins-Vance​

Maden Name: Esme River Hopkins​

Blood Status: Half Blood​

Profession: Nurse​

Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw​

History:​

Esme fell in love during her years at Hogwarts with Seth. After graduation she married and had Emmaline. Esme loved her daughter and could not wait to start a family with the man she believed she loved. However, a year later, when Esme fell pregnant again, Seth was furious. He did not want one child, but two was more than he could handle. Heartbroken, Esme wanted to leave and start a new life with someone who loved her children as much as she did. Financially she was unable to do this so she stayed in an unhappy marriage. When River was born, Seth left the family in the middle of the night without a word since. Although this was devastating, Esme picked up all the “slack.” She raised both her girls to the ages of 11 and 10 by working hard and often.​

Personality:​

Esme is a hard working single mother who works multiple hours of overtime a week as a nurse in order to provide for her family. She is not strict, per say, but does ask a lot of her children, especially Emmaline. Esme loves her children more than anything, but does not get to spend as much time with them as she would like. When she is home, she wants to make sure everything is perfect for them so mostly focuses on their needs, clothing, and schooling. She puts a lot of effort into her appearance and expects her children to do the same. “If you don't look perfect, how can everything be perfect.” is one of her constant catchphrases. Esme means well, but does not realize Emmaline would be happier if things were less “perfect” and more real.​

Played By: Kathryn Prescott​

Pets:​

​

Nova: A Small Kitten named Nova. Nova is an ocicat breed of cat with distinct spots. Emmaline's mother gave her Nova for a going away present to bring to school. River helped name her, Nova which plays into Emmaline's love for Astronomy. Nova is not even a year old and has all the energy in the world. She loves to play until she is exhausted and then cuddle. At first Emmaline did not want another "mouth to feed" but it did not take long for her to fall in love with Nova's personality.​

​

​

House:​

​

Emmaline lives in a three bedroom house with her mother and sister. Their house is small, but cozy. Outside of her bedroom at the back of the house is a small roof landing.

Hogwarts House: Gryffindor
Abridged Sorting Ceremony:
Gazing upwards, she listened to a professor give the introductions and "game plan." It seemed easy enough to Emmaline. Wait for your name, put on a hat, and get a new house. Easy She thought continuing to find her happy place in the stars while she waited for her name to be called. It wasn't long before she heard it, loud and clear.

"Hopkins-Vance, Emmaline."

Emmaline hated that her name was different with the hyphenation. Adjusting her outfit to perfect condition and running her fingers through her hair to make sure every strand was in the correct order, she walked towards the Sorting Hat. The hat was placed on her head. Emmaline's smile faltered for a second. Instantly the voice of her mother played in her head as she sat there on the stool, If you don't look perfect, how can everything be perfect Her mother's voice invaded her thoughts. Instantly Emmaline put a smile on her face, adjusting her outfit one more time. Step one hear name. Step two try on hat. Step three get a new house. Easy She thought as she waited for the hat's decision.

"Well, step three is the easiest of the steps...Gryffindor,"
Full Link

Reaction: Emmaline had never really considered herself to be brave. She did enjoy being adventurous from time to time, but those were little adventures. Nothing that elicits courage. Emmaline hopes Gryffindor will be the right fit, but she is unsure about the Sorting's Hat decision to call her brave.

Likes and Dislikes School Edition:
Favourite Class: Astronomy
Reasoning: Emmaline's happy place is watching the stars. This habit occurred at her home when she would put her sister River to bed. Emmaline would climb onto her rooftop and gaze at the stars to calm her mind. Due to this connection to the stars, Emmaline loves everything about Astronomy.
Favourite Activity: Astronomy Tower Adventures
Reasoning: Emmaline has created a home for herself atop the Astronomy Tower. This is her favourite place to go to and even sneak out late at nights. These adventures hold a special place in her heart.
Least Favourite Class: Transfiguration
Reasoning: Honestly, Emmaline does not see the point. She would rather conjure something than transform it.
Least Favourite Activity: Gryffindor Common Room Hang Outs
Reasoning: Emmaline finds the Gryffindor Common Room boring and does not understand why people "hang out" there. The rest of the castle is much more exciting.
Most Successful Class: Astronomy or Defense Against The Dark Arts
Reasoning: Emmaline will always hold a special place in her heart for Astronomy and will do well in this subject, however, she has been growing interesting in defensive magic. This interest will lead Emmaline to work exceptionally hard in DADA classes.
Least Successful Class: Transfiguration
Reasoning: Emmaline is not putting the effort she needs to, however she is working on it.
