Silica's adrenailine fueled behaviour makes people think that she's crazy and the things she does are really scary.

Futhermore, Silica is a carring person and it takes a very long time for her to lose her temper at someone.

Silica caring behavoiur also makes her a bit crazy and too overprotective because she would like to know if someone is alright.

Although, Silica has low level of understanding in awkward situations. She seems to underreact at strange situations because whenever a guest is taking a bath at her house, Silica seems to like to walk in on them without any reprecussions. She normally does this to check if they are okay or not.

History
Growing up in the agricultural district of Vale, Silica grew up in a farm with her brother. She had an avid interest in the farm and normally would harvest the plants. Silica hated how big and clustered the farm was so she decided to use parkour to reach parts of the farm quicker. Her parents didn't have a problem with this since they thought she was being smart.

Silica sometimes spent a lot of time watching TV in her room. She would normally have it on documentaries about anything to do with archaeology. Finding it interesting, Silica joined the Archeology club when she was 7. She loved the club a lot and they learned about new finding of bones of different kinds of animals and even weapons.

Five years later, the club decided to go on a trip outside the kingdom with five hunters. They explored numerous findings. While on the trip, Silica found a pickaxe that was on the floor. The trip started to go downhill from here. Three Nevermores appeared and four of the hunters were killed by the Grimm and all the children and it's club members. Silica and the two hunters headed back into the airship but it was nearly destroyed. They landed back in Vale luckily however the airship exploded unfortunately and killed the two hunters but Silica since she got out of it quickly. This saddened her for a while but since she had decided that she wanted to do Archaeology when she grows up she realised that Remnant was a dangerous place so she need to fight so she could find things.

After a while, Silica went to. She brought the Pickaxe she found on the trip and changed the look of it a bit. She was able to make sure it transformed into a shotgun and have a grappling hook.

She then went to Beacon with her team for four years and graduated.
