Emily Prentiss

She's very level-headed and calm, sometimes it could be said that she seems to be dealing with the cases in an even more professional manner than some other members of the BAU. However, Prentiss lets her own emotions get the better of her on a few occasions. She has been shown to react emotionally at the crime scenes and feels a strong surge of empathy for the victims. She also appears highly intelligent and driven. Prentiss is willing to put herself at risk to protect others and has a very sarcastic sense of humor.

She is a graduate of Chesapeake Bay University, where she earned her B.A. in Criminal Justice, and the University of Yale and has been working for the FBI for a little under ten years, primarily in the Midwest. Due to spending her early life with her parents on diplomatic missions to the Middle East, she speaks fluent Arabic and is familiar with that area's local culture. She also speaks fluent Spanish, French, Italian, and some Russian. She appears to be skilled at chess too.

Speaks fluent Arabic, Spanish, French, Italian and a little Russian. She's skilled at chest.
