Miharu was born in a quiet seaside town of the Pacifica province of Eo. She was a lonely child; her elder sister Maharu was thirteen years older than her (they rarely saw eye-to-eye until recently), and while she loved spending time with her parents, they were often working, so she spent most of her time by herself wandering the streets of her hometown, Siren's Call, the forests just outside the city, or in the provincial capital, Pacifica.
Miharu graduated near the top of her class at the Pacifica campus of the Eo School of Flight in April of 4432, with special training in high-level Energy Focus techniques. She spent most of her time between then and the end of the year in Itani-controlled space; rarely spending large amounts of time outside of it until sometime after her boyfriend Yukinari suddenly went missing at the end of November.

During the course of the next year, she traveled around known space, doing odd jobs for a variety of companies and nations, including the Serco Dominion. Sometime in mid-spring of 4433, she purchased the Makchuga, a bar on the Corvus Hold station in Odia that had been in business for over one hundred and seventy years, from the previous owner, who was retiring to live quietly in peace somewhere in Itani space.
Adding a few items to the bar's already-famous menu from her own sources, she nurtured the bar out of a slow period and brought it back to the bustling business it once had been, taking advantage of the renewed interest in defending the purified xithricite convoys as well as the variety of events taking place in the area.
Eventually, the traffic in the bar became too heavy for her to handle by herself, and she hired help in the form of her new friend, Joyce Sanders. Soon afterward, the bar expanded its staff again, adding Erik Christianson (now Joyce's husband) and Jan Rhapsody (Miharu's husband from December 4433 to June 4434, whether he died in a laboratory accident at Oan Technological Institute where he taught during the week or Miharu divorced him first is unclear) to the roster.
She joined the Sigma Shipping Company in mid-January of 4434, after several failed attempts at fitting in in other guilds. She was in the Syndicate twice (once for two days and once for just over a week), and a member of the Itani Alliance during the planning phase of the Coalition of Itan, where she was a founding councilor until harassment from another member of the guild forced her to leave. Sigma Shipping has worked out well for her; she is still a very active member of the guild as its commander.
Miharu is not the most social person according to most standards, but she prefers by and large to be around people than to be alone, and often can be found in areas where other pilots tend to congregate.
Miharu can most easily be reached via email, but when she's out and about, she usually can be reached easily at the Makchuga or via a personal channel.
