Details: Nira's been sickly ever since she was a child, constantly in and out of the hospital. Despite this, she has a strong athletic desire, although she rarely got to express it and it usually ended up with her getting sent to the hospital even more. She took up hiking in her spare time, and also started learning more about mineralogy during the times she was confined to bed. She pretty much had no friends until she met Ryota, a boy around her age, during one of her hospital visits.

It was her friendship with him and Celestia, a girl who snuck into their room, that really started getting her to open up. Celestia was quite a popular girl in school, who had a secret playful side that Nira and Ryota were the first to learn about. Through her, Nira was able to make a few new friends in other clubs, and started learning to joke around a bit more. She also ended up joining the fencing club, since the instructor saw promise in her, and would eventually win a championship.

Her friendship with Ryota and Celestia would still be her closest relationship over the years, and it would eventually develop into romantic feelings. She discussed those with Celestia first, before both of them approached Ryota about it. While there were a few hiccups along the road, for the most part they stuck together. They were the ones Nira felt most comfortable being vulnerable around, and all three of them would often put up with things they weren't really interested in for each others' sake.

Nira has a low tolerance for cruelty and bullies, especially if directed at her or the ones she loves. While violence isn't her first resort anymore, she can be spurred to it easily. She also has a strong competitive side that can easily be triggered by any kind of competition, although she prefers physical ones. Still, she's a fairly open person, and wears her heart on her sleeve most of the time. She rarely gets sad, her main moods being excitement, irritation, and anger. She also has a strong soft spot for underdogs or weaklings, since they remind her of her younger self.

When she decides she likes someone, she shows it by becoming more willing to share details about her past with them, or by infodumping a lot about mineralogy. She also treasures any gifts she receives from others, unless it's from someone she doesn't like, in which case she'll likely dispose of it in front of them. She doesn't see any use in pretending to be on good terms with someone she doesn't like, although if they have some authority over her she'll give them the bare minimum of respect required.
