Biography[]
Lily was banished from the fairytale world to the real world by Snow White and Prince Charming (who were really altered by Isaac Heller). She was adopted by a couple when she was just a baby, as a teen she made friends with Emma. But she was a troubled teen, she was lying to Emma about her parents and stole money, she also made Emma lose her adoptive family after they discovered who she was.
In her adulthood, she took a fake name as a waitress and told Emma to leave her alone with her daughter, but Emma and Regina discovered the lies and found out that she knew the truth about Emma's past and discovered the town of Storybrooke. Emma tried to stop her with the car and Lily got angry telling that without her magic Emma is nothing. Emma wanted to kill her, but Regina intervened and Lily escaped during argument.
She wanted to get her revenge on Snow White and Prince Charming by transforming herself into a dragon. After speaking to Regina about darkness, she manages to steal some of Lily's blood and the young girl managed to transform into a terrifying dragon. Lily, as a dragon, went after Snow White and knocked her out with her tail before reverting back to her human form. Lily reconciled with Emma, her mother then tried to reasoned with her and Lily did, she finally made peace with Emma and Storybrooke inhabitants.
Little did Lily know it, but she chased and tried to kill the wrong people. For it was Isaac Heller, the real villain behind her drama, who wrote and altered the Charmings to hurt her against their will just so he can hurt the couple, because he foolishly claims that they represent his bad bosses.
Alternate Reality[]
During the alternate reality created by Isaac Heller (the real villain behind her drama), Lily served as one of the Evil Queen's Black Knights, one dedicated to imprisoning Emma Swan. One day, Hook brings in a boy who he claims is a prisoner from the Queen. The boy, Henry, knocks her out, before he and Hook rescue Emma. As the trio sail away from the tower, Lily awakens, tearing off her headgear, and transforms into a dragon. Bursting out of the tower, which she reduces to rubble, Lily then charges after the ship. Offering herself as bait, Emma manipulates Lily into flying into her, before unleashing a well-aimed cannon blast that causes the dragon to crash into the ocean. At some point after this, Lily alerts the Queen about Emma's escape and brings Snow White directly to her at the docks. To keep Henry from being captured, Hook stays behind to fight Prince Charming. As Emma runs to Henry, Hook knocks over a food stall, burying Lily and some of the Black Knights under the rubble. But he gets stabbed in the back.
Trivia[]

- While not stated, Lily likely chose to live in Storybrooke; the fairies could use their magic to muffle Lily's darkness.
