Emily has been Gwen's best friend since kindergarten.

Appearance

Emily is blonde with fair skin and pale blue eyes. She wears a white shirt, a red scarf, a black skirt, a black hairband, and black stockings. She is a paraplegic, and, as a result of her condition, is wheelchair-bound.

Personality

Emily is a kind and supportive person, notably offering Gwen food knowing she often misses breakfast or lunch. Though she's fine with Gwen going on space-faring adventures without her, she took issue when she believed Gwen could not show support for her back.

Emily has an interest in the performing arts, being a skilled pianist.

History

Background

Emily once went on a date with Ben who, as Spidermonkey, left her webbed to the top of a 200-foot-high tower above the ground. According to Ben, it was for her own safety, and she couldn't have fallen.

Ultimate Alien

Emily appeared in It's Not Easy Being Gwen, giving Gwen (who had missed breakfast) a bagel, and revealing that she had been accepted into a performing arts school. When Ben came to ask Gwen for help fighting Dr. Animo, Emily was unhappy about it, pointing out that, because of Gwen's heroics and the two of them doing different activities, they don't get to spend as much time together as they used to.

That night, at her piano recital, she was overjoyed to find that Gwen had come to watch.

Powers and Abilities

Emily is proficient at playing the piano, to the extent that she was able to audition at the School of Performing Arts.

Equipment

Emily uses a wheelchair to move around.

Relationships

Allies

Gwen Tennyson

Emily has been Gwen's best friend since kindergarten. Emily often brings food to school for Gwen, knowing that she usually skips breakfast. Though she is understanding of Gwen's crimefighting responsibilities, she is also upset that they do not spend as much time as they used to. However, Gwen tries to support Emily to the extent possible, such as when she went to Emily's piano recital at the last minute after helping Ben and Kevin defeat Animo.^[1]

Love Interests

Ben Tennyson

Emily briefly dated Ben, but the reason they broke up was that Ben left Emily on a 200-foot-tall watchtower, causing her to get angry at him.^{[MW 1]}
