Appearance:
A short, slim and fit lady, with short, simple and practical black hair, Amy is a healthy person, rather than an obsessive body builder. She has small hands and feet, clearly someone with great dexterity, and clearly someone incredibly energetic from her unendingly fiddling fingers.
Her face has a large mouth with a small nose, and her eyes are a quite unusual shade of very dark green. Because she's so vain, Amy insisted on staying attractively plump throughout the apocalypse, and she hides the fact that she's gone many days without eating very well by wearing clothes that maker her look fatter than she truly is.
Amy is currently dressed in a wildly impractical, yet gorgeous looking purple dress. She keeps a more practical set of clothes in her backpack, in the form of an incredibly solid, simple black shirt and a matching pair of perfectly fitting pants. Amy made the clothes herself, though it'd be hard to tell, and they're kept in great condition because of her tailoring skills.

Personality:

To this end, she's friendly, outgoing and helpful, and does her best to build what she believes is a better world for everyone involved. She also works hard to remain happy, doing her best to keep a smile going. She's had some truly great moments in her life, and has felt true happiness.
History:
Amy Emmerson was born into an ordinary middle-class family, and vowed from an early age to be the best she could be. When the moved across the country, unexpected medical fees meant that they lost almost everything they had and were made homeless for a while. In their desperation after being neglected by the system, they decided to make Amy work from the age of eleven in a sweatshop, making textiles. Although they quickly recovered from their economic troubles, Amy found out that she found her first job quite interesting and had tailoring as a sort of hobby from a very young age, before quickly getting a job as a tailor and finding out that she was extraordinarily talented. Her parents died when she was 20, but in her mind, they wouldn't want her sad and mourning over their deaths, so she quickly recovered.
When the Fall begun, Amy faced a series of "miracles" that meant that meant that she would barely be exposed to the devastation that would follow. By convincing other groups to help her, Amy didn't go many nights hungry, and she managed to mostly avoid direct confrontations with zombies. She eventually decided to travel West, hoping to help the return of mankind by taking back the country, from east to west, and finally returning her beloved homeland that raised her so well. Kansas was along the way, and that's where her luck finally ran out; people stopped helping her, she looted less and less, and zombies kept growing ever more abundant. Understanding how powerless she was on her own, Amy found the airport, and managed to convince Kenzie to be let inside. Her charm and good manners meant that she quickly integrated into the community, and since, she's made Billings Municipal Airport a more pleasant place to live ever since she first moved in a few months ago.
