Name: Emma Nesseltrager
Nickname: Shiner
Age: 15
Birthday: April 30
Height: 5'2"
Borough: Brooklyn
Occupation: newsie
Personality: Shiner considers herself a lady first, a newsie second, but if you know her well, you know she really isn't as lady-like as she wishes she'd be. Brooklyn doesn't exactly leave much room for a girl to become a proper young lady, but Shiner does her best to balance her lady-like manners with her street survival skills.
Description: Shiner is a rather pretty girl. When she dresses up nicely, one would hardly believe she was just a newsie. She has dark brown hair and has greenish brown eyes. Her left eye is more green-colored with brown spots near the iris.
Skills, Talents, Hobbies: Shiner likes to read in her spare time. She finds that reading can help her catch headlines faster and learn more about the world. When she's not selling, she tries to help around the lodge and learn to be more like a proper young lady. However, because she has grown up on the streets, she is tough when she needs to be. She has been known to give quite the shiner to anyone who tries to pick on her or her friends. She gets along with the boys fairly well and often enjoys arm wrestling with them if they'll let her.
Background: Shiner came to the girls' lodge when she was six. Her family had been killed in a factory accident. Luckily, she had been at school. But with no parents, she couldn't keep going to school and found her way to the lodge. Here, she began learning how to be a newsie and survive on the streets. Now, she is just trying to get by and eventually get to place where she can be a proper young lady.
Other Notes: The newer newsies (and those that don't know her that well) often get confused by her nickname. Sometimes they think she's a shoeshiner or that she's a sight for sore eyes. While she is pretty, her nickname originates from her fighting abilities. It throws people off, especially those who are foolish enough to try to fight her. If Spot would let her... she would take on the Queens' newsies and even Rip himself.
