Bio:

Abilities: Emily has the Relic of Enchantment (formerly the Coronet of Enchantment, see below), a powerful First Nations artifact that is capable of incredible mystical feats, including, but not limited to, astral projection, exorcism, matter manipulation, the ability to see prophetic visions, telepathy, teleportation over vast distances, animating the undead, generating wind blasts and lightning, summoning air spirits, calling forth spirit animals, creating magical shields of light, and generating blasts of magical energy. This talisman also makes her part of the land itself, tying her to the spirit world. The artifact has basically given her powers, properly developed, that can rival even Dr. Strange or Merlin.

Weaknesses and flaws: She is a 16-year-old girl with a difficult family relationship, with all the neurosis that go with that. Her body is no more durable than any other human's; taken by surprise, she can be taken out of a fight very easily. Lastly, she has limited understanding or control of the relic, and at this point, most of her powers are used by instinct.

Relatives (living/dead?): Her grandfather, Michael Twoyoungmen, aka Shaman. Her mother and father, Elizabeth and Thomas McAndrews; his mother was once the superhero Talisman. Her younger brother Kevin, who is 12.

Backstory: Elizabeth Twoyoungmen hated being Talisman, and hated her father and her heritage for sticking her with this fate. She reached into the powers of the Talisman, hoping to destroy the Coronet of Enchantment, despite her father warning that one cannot hide from destiny -- one may only put it off. Elizabeth did not listen to her father, and did it anyway. The Coronet vanished, apparently destroyed.

She met Thomas McAndrews, a nice, "normal" man, and married him. She bore him two children: first, Emily, then later, Kevin. Emily did not get along with her mother, particularly as she was a very rebellious teenager. She insisted on investigating the culture of her mother's family, despite her mother's anger with this investigation. After being punished for being caught with a Oijia board with friends, she began investigating the occult as well.

The morning Emily turned 16, Emily found a bracelet in her bedroom on her bedside table. She stepped out of the room, carrying it, and thanking her mother for the gift -- it was clearly of First Nation design, and she didn't think her mother would have approved. She quickly discovered that it had not been left there by her mother; in fact, Elizabeth recognized it as a design similar to the Coronet of Enchantment, as if the item had returned in a new form. Elizabeth threw it out in anger, but Emily found it back on her bedside table later that day. In frustration and anger with her mother, Emily put it on... and discovered that she now had incredible power, but could never take the bracelet off again.

After a fight with her mother, she ran away from home. She was soon found by Department H, who recruited her into the new Alpha Flight.
