<<PERSONALITY>>

Positive:
Alert – Miruna’s ability to pay attention to her surroundings is one of her more useful personality traits. Be it keeping an eye on those that she imagines as potential threats, to picking out potentially useful details about her surroundings, she has trained herself well in the art of observation.
Faithful – Once you’ve obtained Miruna’s trust, you will find yourself hard-pressed to find anyone as loyal as she is. She will do absolutely anything and everything to help those who put their trust in her and refuses to take no for an answer.
Passionate – Miruna is very adamant about everything she does. From helping others to practicing her Sword Arts to simply strolling around town at night, Miruna puts every bit of her heart into everything she does. As such, she is an incredibly energetic person who, at times, can annoy others with her resolve. (Not to be mistaken with cheerfulness, as she isn’t always a cheerful person.)
Realistic – One of Miruna’s more obvious traits is that of her realistic outlook on the situation that Sword Art Online players are currently facing. While she is perfectly aware that it’s better to make the best of the current situation, it is nearly impossible for her to shake the idea that they are in a deadly situation. Sometimes, however, this leaves people with the impression that she is not compassionate to those who are trying to forget the deadly game they are wrapped up in.

Negative:
Coarse – Tied directly to Miruna’s realistic outlook on the current state of affairs in Sword Art Online, she can be incredibly crude at times. She is incapable of putting things gently. That is, she is abrupt and rude, even to children and those others who need nothing more than to hear the optimistic outlook in order to keep calm. As such, she avoids younger children as often as possible.
Gullible – Miruna, while interested in history, is not very well versed in it. As such, it is almost sad how easy it is to convince her of perhaps the most foolish of things. This is a very enjoyable thing for those who are close to her to play around with. Unfortunately, it also means that she is prone to being convinced to help those of… less reputable honor.
Reactive – When fired up (which is easy to do if she feels that her friends are threatened) she will go into fits of rage and revenge. This is perhaps when she is most dangerous as well as when she is most willing to risk her own life. During these fits of rage, her ability to think clearly is completely masked by her desires for revenge. As such, she is much more prone to taking damage as long as she manages to deal damage in return.
Secretive – Miruna’s home life being what it is (her family and herself are nudists), she becomes easily nervous about letting others know about her. As such, she tends to keep her personal information secret. Do note, however, that she doesn’t like lying and refuses to do so. Granted, this is almost worse, as instead of lying she doesn’t tell the ‘whole’ truth. This way, she doesn’t have to lie to keep her secrets secret.

Hobbies:
Nudism – Not exactly a hobby, so much as something she has grown up with over the course of her life. Note that this only occurs within her own household and never outside of it. [It’s also important to note that she is never naked within the game. As per its regulations and her own morals.]
Video Games – Making friends while trying to hide who you are is very difficult. As such, she found solace in escapism through video games.

<<HISTORY>>

Childhood
Born to a Romanian father and Japanese mother, Miruna had about as normal a life as one would consider. At least in most regards. Her family did have its oddities, however. They are nudists. (At least as far as within their own home is concerned.) Unfortunately, this made having friends over an impossibility. How could Miruna invite others over when she couldn’t even share her family’s secret with others of her age? As such, Miruna spent many of her younger years indulging in video games. Essential video games were a form of escapism from the real world in which she could make friends who never had to know too much about her. It was a fantasy world that she embraced. So much so that she felt more comfortable among her pixelated comrades than she did with her ‘real friends’ if she could even consider them friends.

Teenage Years
Miruna’s secretive nature and inability to make friends stayed with her into her teenage years. Being shunned or generally ignored by the populous of the school left her somewhat jealous of those around her who she felt were easily able to foster bonds. It was painful to see everyone being so nice to each other and enjoying each other’s friendship when she herself could not have such a thing. Nevertheless, she enjoyed her isolation. It allowed her to hone her skills in video games. Years of solitude and escapism had made her quite adept with picking up pretty much any game she came across. She even became so devoted as to follow the releases of new games on the net. What started as a normal day of searching through the latest game news ended with her coming across her soon to be desired game: Sword Art Online. An innovative change to the MMORPG scene she had followed for a number of years, this was to be one of the first VRMMORPGs ever created. It was a must have. What better way to escape the real world than to be actually put in a new one? Or so she thought at the time…

Reaction to Announcement
Unfortunately, her opinion changed the day she first laid eyes on Kayaba Akihiko. The genius she had thought to be a hero for people like her, turned into a demon in front of her very eyes. Her meticulously designed character faded away in a matter of seconds, leaving what appeared to be her real body dressed in her characters attire. An overwhelming sensation ran through her body. At first, excitement at the idea that she had finally realized her dream of entering a new world. This, however, was quickly replaced with confusion. Kayaba had taken them. He had captured nearly 10,000 players within a world of his own design. The only way to escape was to fight. But did she really want to fight? She questioned this, even as everyone around her began to cry out in fear. What was the real world to her? Merely a place where she existed. But that wasn’t the case anymore. This was her real world now. Everything was merely a dream. Or so she wanted to believe…

SWORD ARTS

POISON FANG One Handed Sword
1 Strikes, 1 Specials, 100% Speed, 100% Power

This attack begins with the sword undrawn from its sheath. With the sheath placed horizontally on the lower back, the user places one hand on the sword’s grip (so that when drawn, the blade is facing downward with the thumb pressed against the pommel). The sheath glows a pink color as the user lowers there stance so that their other hand is placed on the ground in a manner similar to that of a starting block set position. When activated, the user sprints forward and draws the sword into a fluid slashing motion that slices diagonally upwards towards the right. If the attack connects, normal damage is applied and the POISON effect is applied.

CIRCULAR SLICE One Handed Sword
1 Strikes, 1 Specials, 125% Speed, 75% Power

This attack begins with the user flipping the blade around so that the sharp edge faces towards the user, and raising it up so that the user forms a hand sign with the sword positioned in the lower of the hands. The blade glows a warm pink color before the user’s attack begins. The user then spins in a circle, in an attempt to slash enemies surrounding the user. (Hits up to 2 enemies.)
