Background Kuru grew up in a small industrial town, raised by a single mother. She learned early how to keep her head down, stay observant, and take care of what matters. When the outbreak began, she volunteered for civil-support duties. She wanted to do something useful, stay near survivors, and earn enough to send supplies to her mother. She's not a trained soldier. She's essentially a civilian who became useful to the military because she's reliable, observant, and capable of following procedures under pressure.
