Emori

Emori is a minor character in the second and third seasons. She is portrayed by Luisa D'Oliveira and debuts in "Rubicon".

Emori is a Nomadic Grounder who traveled through the desert with her brother as they allegedly searched for the City of Light.

Early Life
Emori was born with a deformed hand and because of that her people considered her a stain in their bloodline. Normally, when a Grounder child is born with a deformity they are cast out and left to die. At some point in Emori's life she, along with her brother, began working for Alie.

Throughout the Series

 * -|Season Two =

In Wanheda (Part 1), Emori drives the boat that picks up Jaha, Murphy, A.L.I.E., and Gideon from the island. She recognizes John and exclaims that she doesn't believe that it's him. John, at first not willing to go with Thelonious, boards the boat, asking Emori who she stole it from.
 * -| Season Three =

In Wanheda (Part 2), Murphy calls out to Jaha, breaking through his mind journey to the City of Light and he opens his eyes, seated at the front of the boat that has arrived on-shore. Emori tries to unload the case containing A.L.I.E. and Gideon grabs it from her, taking it with him off the boat. Emori tells them they're going around the Dead Zone this time as they start walking.

Emori's brother, Otan, asks Jaha if he has really been to the City of Light. Jaha takes Otan off on a walk while Gideon sits and thinks his way into the City of Light. Emori tells Murphy that she and her brother were recruited by a female who comes to them in drones. They collect technology for her and bring it to Gideon on the island. Emori decides to go after the case while Gideon is sitting there in oblivion while he visits the City of Light. She tells Murphy they have other buyers and as she is about to take it, Gideon catches her and holds her by the throat. Murphy tries to get Gideon to put Emori down but no matter what he does, Gideon is unmoved, saying, "there is no pain in the City of Light." Emori stabs him in the neck, killing him. She grabs the case and takes off back to the boat. Murphy follows after.

Emori and Murphy are at the boat, waiting for Otan to arrive. Murphy tries to open the case and Emori tells him she will split whatever is in there with him. Murphy comments how all she had to do was kill a guy and she thanks him for saving her life, kissing him on the cheek. She pries open the case with her knife, revealing technology with the infinity symbol, which is the same logo stamped on the chip Jaha gave to Murphy. Murphy realizes the case is housing A.L.I.E. and Jaha had brought her with them. Otan shows up and demands the case from Murphy, taking Emori hostage. Jaha arrives as Emori asks what is going on. Murphy says that Otan "ate the damned chip" that Jaha gave him and threatens to drop the case into the water unless they let Emori go. Jaha starts proselytizing about the City of Light to Murphy and Murphy goes to drop the case in the water. Jaha and Otan give up and release Emori. Murphy throws the case far from them and into the water, leaving them running after it while he and Emori take off in the boat.

Physical Appearance
Emori has dark brown hair with dark brown eyes to match. She appears to be in her early 20's and has tan skin. Like most Grounders, she has a tattoo on her face. One of her hands is deformed which she keeps covered up. She wears Grounder clothing and a turban.

Personality
Emori is shown to be very distrustful of strangers and this is shown when she was ready to attack Jaha and all of his crew members when they first saw her. Also, Emori is intelligent. This is supported by the fact she managed to earn the trust of Jaha and his crew and later lead them into a trap. However, Emori shows a more caring side of herself when she and Murphy exchange stories on how they ended up in The Dead Zone and when she tells Murphy where to go by saying "Due North."

Emori meets Murphy in Rubicon. The two seem to hold a certain respect for one another because neither one of them judges the other one after they share their stories of how they ended up in The Dead Zone. Later on, Emori leads Murphy and the people he is with into a trap, however, she tells Murphy to "Due North" before knocking him out. When Murphy wakes up, he assumes that she is talking about the City of Light and leads his group North.
