Who recruited you?:

Name: Mira Carroll
Age: 19
Gender: Bisexual
Height: 5'4
Weight: 105 lbs.

Race: Human
Social Class: Middle class. Upper-middle class.

Appearance: Mira is about five foot four, and of average built, not fat and definitely far from skinny. Her hair is cut in a short shaggy bob, the tips tinted with blueish purple dye, almost blending in with her black hair color. Her complexion is pale with pink undertones, and noticeably blushes. Not that she does so often...

Personality: She exhibits a very strong personality, particularly in dealing with oters, and most of the time this turns people off. Not exactly tactless, she is just not afraid to voice her opinions, or make her feelings known, very much to the irritation of her father. She was never inclined to be the classic prim and proper lady, or anything close to subdued.

With regards to authority, Mira is of the opinion that respect must be earned, and will not care if she's dealing with a teacher or a noble. Mostly left-wing, rebellious with reasons she will take care to explain, but oftens comes out sounding angsty. She hates sounding angsty, though, and most of the time is self-depreciating. Might appear mature to others, but will never claim to be.

Character flaws: Provocative, almost to the point of being rude, and at times will purposely be such just irritate people, or prove her point. Sometimes it also seems that she talks too much for her own good, and in a way tries to impose her ideas on others. Finds it hard to compromise. This has probably earned her a bad reputation among her peers. Doesn't like to look weak or soft.

Background: Mira is the only child of a businessman, gradually rising from middle class to the upper-middle class. Their family business revolves around textiles at first, then expanded to dressmaking and design. Thankfully her father believed in education, and from early on it was instilled in her that it was important, regardless of gender or social class. Her mother's family was in the trvelling circus, a "gypsy clan" of sorts. Illiterate and slightly simple-minded, her mother was nevertheless very loving of her only daughter. Mira is very fond of her mother, and is very protective of her, of the opinion that she isn't sharp enough to stand up for herself.

Growing up, she wasn't too spoiled, kept in line by her father's frugality and discipline, and made to mingle with her less fortunate cousins. Her mother's family were mechanics of lesser wit, and were delgated more to common metalwork and mechanical tasks. Though they weren't of much use to her education-wise, playing in their metalworks shop sparked an interest in

Skills: The girl is good with numbers and is highly intellectual. Though not a genius, and like any other youth of her generation, she enjoys tinkering with "the mechanical stuff" as her mother would say.

Belongings: A compass she had taken a fancy to, with a mirror on the inside of the lid. At first glance it looks like a powder compact, with it the ornate etchings on the lid.

Character secrets: Though her nature really resists secrets, she likes to keep private the fact that she's already engaged...to her father's friend's son. The arrangement goes against everything she believes in--freedom and equality, but for some reason she agreed.

Anything else? (Is there something you'd like to mention that we've missed?)
