Description
Emma Swan is the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming, Henry Mills' birth mother, and older sister of Neal Nolan. She is the main protagonist of the series, known as "The Savior".
When Snow White becomes pregnant, Geppetto forms a magical wardrobe for her and Charming, after Rumplestiltskin informs them that their daughter is the key to breaking the Evil Queen's curse in 28 years. Emma is born shortly after and placed in the wardrobe, successfully travelling to the new land. [3] In the real world, Emma grows up in foster care, where she later discovers that one of her foster mothers was Sarah Fisher, who is later revealed to be The Snow Queen. As a teenager, Emma becomes a petty criminal after running away from the orphanage, believing that she was too old to be placed with a family, and befriends a fellow teen named Lily, who claimed that she and Emma were alike, until she betrayed her, leading Emma to never trust anyone. This contributes to Emma living her life as a loner. As an adult, Emma has her first encounter with another petty thief, Neal Cassidy. They plan to start a new life in Tallahassee, Florida, until Neal is persuaded by August Booth (Pinocchio) to turn Emma over to the police, to protect her destiny. Emma is jailed, later giving birth to Henry, [4] whom she gives up for adoption to give him a better life; he is then adopted by Regina Mills (the Evil Queen). [5] After some time in prison, Emma becomes a bail bond agent and a police officer, where she catches criminals. On her 28th birthday, a ten-year-old Henry arrives in Boston, explaining Emma's origins. Disbelieving him, she returns him home to Regina in Storybrooke, who becomes worried that Emma wants to be in Henry's life. Regina's repeated warnings to leave town and keep out of Henry's life make Emma decide to stay. [3]
In Storybrooke, Emma initially wants Henry to let go of his theories of the curse, but later plays along. [6] She moves in with Mary Margaret (Snow White), unaware that they are related, and Sheriff Graham appoints Emma his deputy as the two form an attraction, [7] until Regina crushes his heart, causing him to die in Emma's arms. [8] Emma is soon elected sheriff, assisting in the arrest of Mary Margaret for the alleged murder of Kathryn Nolan, until she is found alive. [9] When August Booth (Pinocchio) arrives in Storybrooke revealing her destiny of breaking the curse, a pressured Emma decides to leave the town, not wanting Henry to suffer from her and Regina's feud. Regina, however, attempts to poison Emma, though Henry willingly consumes it to prove that magic exists. [10] Emma finally believes, but Henry is pronounced dead. However, he is awoken with true love's kiss from Emma, thus breaking the curse and allowing all residents to remember their true identities. [11] Emma reunites with her parents, only to fall through a portal with her mother to the Enchanted Forest. [12] They meet Princess Aurora and Mulan who help them return to Storybrooke. [13] [14] Emma then helps Mr. Gold travel to Manhattan to locate his son Baelfire, who she discovers is Henry's father Neal. [4] Returning to Storybrooke, Emma deals with newcomers Greg Mendell and Neal's fiancé Tamara. [15] Emma's skeptical theories on the pair are proven correct when it is revealed they want to destroy magic. [16] After Emma and Regina stop their trigger to destroy Storybrooke, Henry is taken to Neverland by Greg and Tamara; Emma, her parents, Regina, Hook and Mr. Gold follow them. [17] The team eventually manage to rescue Henry from the sinister Peter Pan, [18] [19] and return to Storybrooke. [20] However, Pan enacts the original curse once more, forcing Emma and Henry to leave Storybrooke after Regina reverses her curse, erasing the events following its enactment. Emma's past is temporarily altered by Regina and she lives with Henry in New York City instead of giving him up for adoption. [21]
One year after the curse's reversal, Hook restores Emma's memories with a potion and the two return to Storybrooke with Henry to save her family by breaking the new curse caused by Zelena, the Wicked Witch of the West. [22] She finds Neal trapped within Mr. Gold's body, thus causing him to lose his mind. Neal asks for Emma to free his father by killing himself to defeat Zelena; she reluctantly agrees. [23] Regina later helps Emma to strengthen her magical powers, though they are removed when Zelena curses Hook. [24] After Emma and Hook are dragged into Zelena's time portal, she accepts Storybrooke as her home, regaining her magic to re-open the portal to the present where she begins a relationship with Hook. However, unaware to her, she also brings a previously deceased Maid Marian to the future, shattering her growing friendship with Regina, whom Emma hopes will accept her as a friend despite their differences. Emma would later learn that The Snow Queen, Sarah, had been following her upon learning that Sarah had adopted her as her foster daughter when she was a teenager, but erased the six months from Emma's memory. When Emma captured the Snow Queen, she used Emma's fears to unleash her powers, resulting in Emma losing control of her powers, and giving Gold an opportunity to take them away from Emma after he deceived her, only to have Elsa stopped Emma, allowing Emma to finally control her powers.
