Personal History 

Shiroi Yuukaku is, for the most part, normal. Born abroad, her father was a skilled surgeon and immediately brought his year old daughter and wife to the US for profit and educational opportunities for his only child. Her parents were normal and her up bringing was normal which apparently was odd for other people since most of her friend’s parents were divorced. She has no brothers or sisters and although keeps in touch with her parents, does not go out of her way to visit or speak to her other relatives. In fact, she does not know anymore about them that her parents haven’t already told her. They took no interest in her, so why should she care?

She did very well in school and had many friends. Always going by her nickname, Yuu, she excelled in academics and attended Berkley for her BA in political science where she met her to this day dear friend Danielle Martin. Danielle and Yuu were roommates their last two years there and kept in touch when Yuu chose law and earned her law degree at Stanford. Her friendship with Danielle is dear to her and it is because of this relationship that brings her to Nachton.

Also the murder of her predecessor.

Yuu has taken over the position of Assistant District Attorney of Nachton city. Her reputation for being an agressive prosecutor in Los Angeles preceeded her in Nachton. There have been an incredible amount of hired killings in Nachton and serial killings that leave their victims bloodless. Whispers of vampires is what she heard but takes no stock in superstitious stories. Yuu, although will to follow her gut, prefers taking facts into court.

She came for the thrill of working in a city where corrupt and death mixed in easily with weath and beauty. An old city where the powers that be frown upon her kind, Yuu is looking forward to kicking some stuffy old man ass and checking out a bar her friend Dani had told her about. The House of Pain.
