[INNER THOUGHTS]
Overview (a general personality):
Miso is a timid and withdrawn girl when you do not know her. Having the ability to read people's minds has caused her to not want to approach most people and she has managed to keep her ability secret from everyone but her parents because her mother is a telepath herself. She is quiet, soft spoken, and very light on her feet - she has a habit of just showing up somewhere without making a sound. These characteristics have led her to her well deserved nickname "Mouse". A compassionate individual, she has a love for animals and often finds herself talking more to them than actual people.
With Miso's ability it is hard for her to give people the benefit of the doubt, she tries her best to not judge others but sometimes she can't help herself. She has two sides to her personality, the side she shows most people and the side she shows people behind the cover of a newspaper.
She isn't afraid of vampires, but she does try to keep her distance from most because most give her the impression that all they want to do is devour her. She knows she is part fae and is aware of the fact that most vampires will be attracted to her by that fact alone. She also knows that a vampire will have little control after tasting her, so she is very careful about the vampires she comes in close contact with.
As a lover she is loyal, as a friend she is honest, as an enemy she is not very strong and would rather choose to 'flight' rather than 'fight'. However she does had the neat little ability to shoot light out of her hands, which is helpfully when needed to get away from someone quickly.
A downside to her withdrawn personality is that she doesn't have very many friends, and is often casted off as the wallflower. Thanks to her mother she was able to have a handle on her ability to read minds, and is able to "mute" many voices as long as she is not under too much stress. When she is scared or panicked it is almost impossible for her to 'turn off'' her ability and because of this she has suffered from black-out's in the past when her body just cannot take anymore.

[HISTORY]
Miso was born on April 9th, 1990 to Ayumi and Yuki Shuu in Toyko, Japan. Miso's father is a traditionalist, and a sushi chef while Miso's mother is a seamstress and a hostess. Miso was raised in Toyko with her family and both her parents knew that there was a chance Miso would have the ability of Telepathy.
Her ability fully started to manifest when she was old enough to talk, but her parents had decided to home school her until she was able to control the ability.
Miso started attending a private girl's school in Grade Eight but she was maliciously teased for her shy nature and her inability to really get close to anyone. Her self esteem suffered and at her worst she would lose her handle on muting the voices, her parents deciding to pull her out when she suffered a blackout during a school assembly. She went back to being home schooled by her mother until Grade Twelve where she spent a year back in private school. The second time around she was able to control her ability a bit better, however she was still a loner and kept mostly to herself.
Growing up it had been Ayumi who, along with teaching her academics, had also taught her how to control her ability. Miso's mother taught her how to get a handle on her telepathy through meditation, yoga, and Tai-Chi. She learned about other supernatural's but never interacted with any of them first on. After she graduated from high school Miso's father had decided the family would relocate to America where a business opportunity had opened up.
Miso's parents live in Shreveport but it had been Miso's decision to move to Bon Temps on her own. Her father has opened up a Sushi Restaurant in Shreveport and Miso visit's her parents every Sunday for a traditional tea ceremony. She took a job at the Grabbit Kwik as a cashier and has been working there for the last two months. She has met the occasional vampire coming through for bottles of tru blood and has always been very quiet and soft spoken around them. For the most part they do not pay her much attention, but Miso is still intimated by them.
