## History

Inferiority Wiki

*Being born into a hateful family doesn't do you very good, Shiro and Kuro's parents constantly went on about how they weren't perfect or how they were supposed to be which made the girls grow up pretending to be something they weren't.*

Playing the part of "who they were meant to be" was difficult because of the swap of personalities between them, Outgoing to quiet is quite a change especially as a child.

Childhood wasn't all bad because they made a friend along the way, Salem Ito a young octoling who had ran away from his family, they had similar interests and experiences.

The girls often told Salem Ito of their dream of becoming singers and for people to look up to them, the girls didn't originally have the idea of their dark songs but instead Salem Ito give them the idea of telling their experiences to the public. Shiro and Kuro thought it was an amazing idea and hugged Salem Ito which helped sprout a long and prosperous relationship.(Which Salem Ito is often embarrassed about)

## Personality and Traits

*Shiro is normally very quiet and timid and prefers to stay behind during social situations and let her sister Kuro take over the situation.*

She is particularly hateful to social situations which most people guess is because of Social anxiety and her overall awkwardness during conversations when in actuality is because she is hiding her true personality behind a thin sheet of cowardliness. She is actually very outgoing when she isn't acting for the crowd.

Her alter ego shows this as she appears the outgoing one as opposed to her usual quietness.

Although she was told by her sister to be herself more around others, Shiro thinks it is for the best she stays quiet as to not annoy anyone else as she is afraid of losing people.

## Family

### Members

From a young age she and Kuro were always told to please the crowd even if you are uncomfortable. Other people need to see the you that they prefer, even if that means changing out character around certain people.

Not the best thing to hear when you are young. For example, Shiro was always outgoing, loud and talkative but was deemed that what she had to say was insignificant and useless so she was told to be quiet or to stop talking.

After the age of 11 she finally was what her parents deemed perfect for her "character" and even around them she was told to act like so. But she did not around Kuro, she acted like herself until someone else came along.

Even after being told to be quiet she would get yelled at for not speaking at the dinner table or with her parents in general which confused her more than anything.
