-PERSONALITY - due to her trauma (explained later in backstory), she has issues trusting slayers (especially lower-ranked ones) other than the Hashira and kamaboco squad and the master(obvi) and the kakushi and swordsmiths(who she appreciates and respects) so towards those slayers she doesn't know well  she has an ice cold , brutal personality  but with those exceptions listed before she has a bubbly warm personality (cinnamon roll) and in battle , she loves tearing the demons down physically, mentally and emotionally she corrects/insults their form, posture ,looks and personality and she loves showing off in battle.

-TRAUMA/BACKSTORY -  Kirara lived in a quiet mountaintop village , working in her parents sweet shop, skipping happily in the town square (shes 10-12 years old right now) she was unaware demons even existed. She would make konpeito and pray at the shrine at the top of the mountain.

On one seemingly normal day,Kirara jumped up the stairs like stepping stones , she was particularly cheerful today , she jumped with a bag of candy in hand. She stayed at the shrine all day , helping travellers who passed and cloud gazing .

She realises the sun is down and runs down the steps , leaving the candy on the shrine as an offering. When she walks into the square she realises its a bit quiet.

She enters the shop expecting smells of sugar and joy and seeing happy customers with their candy and the usual chatter . She was not prepared for the sights she was about to see...

She saw her father twisted in an unnatural way. Her mother and female customers eaten until unrecognisable. The smell of burnt sugar and blood lingering in the air.

Then, as she started to cry , she felt a cold breath down her neck.

She froze.

She turned around slowly to see a rainbow of death staring back at her.

He had a .. cheerful voice.

The type that sounded empty and emotionless.

He was covered in blood.

It was Uppermoon 2 , Douma.

Then , in a moment of pure panic and fear, she ran .she ran fuelled by fear , sadness,anger,hatred,grief , she didn’t even know anymore , she didn’t know what to feel anymore so ,she ran.She ran as far as she could, as fast as she could. She ran until daybreak.

Something... snapped in her that day, she lost her home, her family and her whole goddamn childhood . She just .. wandered the mountains from that day on , barely blinking , eating or drinking , just.. existing there, searching for a purpose , a spark , anything to give her a reason to live.

It had been a month since the accident and she came across a demon cornering a low ranked slayer. She picked up a rusted katana that was on the ground , it felt heavy in her hands but right. And by pure instinct, she ran , not away from the demon , but towards it. She swung the sword , cutting through the demons neck like snow.

Slayer: Wh...Who are you? (trembling)

Kirara: (walking away)

Slayer: W..Wait! How did you do that? Without any breathing? Wait, are you even in the Corps?!

Kirara:(still walking, ignoring him)

Slayer: uhhhh.. THANK YOU! (Shouting because shes further away now)

And that day, she found her spark . She trained, day and night , perfecting her speed , moves and developing star breathing to its utmost perfection
