Your story:
Raised by the only family member that could afford to do so, Cira grew up with out knowing her real parents, they were dead long before she could remember much of them. Her Aunt Stephanie has had a very positive influence on Cira's mental development and interests. Her Aunt was an assistant manager in one of the Ford dealership maintenance facilities in Texas, and Cira commuted with her every weekend to get a little extra money once she was old enough to work. A vehicle fanatic because of her Aunt, Cira's first love was vehicular technology, including aviation. Having tons of energy, Cira got tired of piano lessons and quickly started taking up Kenpo Karate, and excelled through that with ease for her size and maturity level. Full of energy, once she got past the intermediate levels, she didn't struggle so much. It was never confirmed she had undiagnosed ADHD, but her Aunt suspected it and kept her mouth shut. Grades were barely average, but Cira did all right in the end thanks to her determination.
In her early highschool years, she discovered the secret of Parkour thanks to some of her friends from Karate, and on the evenings after homework was done, they would 'goof around' and practice regularly. At age 13, Cira had an unfortunate accident and broke her right leg from a slip and a fall off a building, but after she recovered from that, she stubbornly got right back into it as she perseveered through the rest of her training in Karate. By the time she was out of highschool and pondering over going to college, she had her Black Belt and started to practice Capoeira with one of her closer friends named Alex.
Going into the Marines, Cira trained to be a pilot, deciding to say goodbye to her past being a mechanic. Wanting to fly A10's or Harriers, Cira grabbed the first slot she could, and it turned out that was the Harrier. She loved the aircraft almost as much as the vehicles she was able to buy later on because of having saved up and those vehicles really being the only things she wanted. Barely a year later, one of her vehicles received it's prided lava paint job which she designed (though it's a bit rusted and worn now). She owned a Mazda Veilside and a Toyota Tacoma. The Mazda Veilside is safe at home in Texas, but the Tacoma is still being used to this day, at least, to the best of its ability.
After nights of staying on the move, Cira has gone into a "rageful mode", just trying to stay alive as a civilian with no need to fly, trying to make a long term survival plan so she will be safer alone. Her luck changed though, and while on the move looking for good food sources, she gradually met more survivors even as the numbers of those not 'undead' continued to drop.
Personality:
Cira is a trigger-happy tomboy and a woman who is confident in her abilities and knowledge. She is full of positive energy, is upbeat and chipper with a damned good military bearing when she's got to be serious. Cira is upfront, honest, self-reliant, temperamental but fairly conscientious, tough, strong-willed, incredibly determined and spontaneous, kind, and a natural leader. Cira’s voice is sound and almost defiant. Her temper is randomized and quite explosive depending on the severity of the situation. Cira hates it when people question her abilities and she always tries to prove them wrong.
Cira partially has a nurturing side to her leadership style depending on the situation, and she tries to keep an open mind and help others wherever she possibly can. She’s the type of leader that will change her style depending on the situation at hand if it means that any subordinates under her will accept her reasoning and rise to support the cause. Sometimes she is a bit slow to adjust if the change is needed, but regaining control of the situation is usually little trouble for her (whether or not extra force has to be used). Cira may seem fearless, but like everyone, she too has her own struggles.
