Miku Hiyashi
SORA

PERSONALITY

Sora in general tries to be a rather caring and friendly person; but is a tad bit anti-social which was one reason she came into the game so that she could be someone else. She wanted to be the amiable and to make a lot of friends however, that didn't exactly work out. She came off as more cool and more reserved, she had tried to make friends but it was still hard for her. And, being a beta-player made it hard for her when she had first joined Sword Art Online.

Sora tries to do good, but sometimes its hard to tell wrong from right but she won't hesitate to help someone in trouble even if it means fighting someone else in the process. Being in the first game she had hated that players were dying and tried her hardest to reach the top of the tower. Hatred fueled her passion for fighting. In her rage and hate, Sora became even more anti-social only wanting to beat the game.

HISTORY

Miku, or Sora, has had a long history filled with trying to fit in. Sora is from a Upper-middle class family in Japan. She lives grew up and lives in Osaka. She was an only child and when she was younger she would always be by her mother's side. However, when she was around eight her mother became gravely ill with a degenerative disease. Her father made sure that Sora was a good girl and she rarely got to see her mother. She ended up having to play by herself instead with her mommy. Her mother took a turn when Sora was ten and passed away.

Sora was saddened by her mother's death and didn't entirely understand everything. She hated her father because he would never let her see her mommy. And now she was never coming back. That was what he told her. During school she was often sad and secluded herself from other students but found through reading she could escape to another world. She became lost in books, in stories. Other kids then started calling her bookworm and making fun of her. She just became deeper and deeper involved in her books, lost in them.

Sora would seclude herself in her room when she got home. Though as she grew up more she began to understand and hated her father less and less, but still blamed him for her not being able to see her mother more before she passed. They were on good terms, but tended to avoid each other.

Sora found online gaming and found it to be another way for her to escape from the real world and to reestablish herself as someone else. She'd soon come across the Beta for Sword Art Online. She became a Beta player, though when the real game came out and then found out that all the players were stuck inside of the game.. she would hate the creator. But, also found that... she didn't have to return to the real world. But was that what she truly wanted? For SAO to be the realty...

But. She didn't want other players to die. She didn't mind dying. She would beat the game for others players. She became a Solo player; despite wanting to be friends with other people, but her isolation from the real world didn't help. But when the game finally ended.. she'd be in the real world again. After recovering Sora became lost in books again and gaming as well and still had the need to be in SAO but it'd been taken down. An..ambition would grow inside of her to write. She wanted to be a writer.

However, when Sword Art would emerge again she didn't hesitate to go back in. It felt more like...home to her.
