About:

Mira is the calm, clever shopkeeper behind Orbit & Impact, the shop where players can buy Comet Strikers for future Starcap Showdown games. She comes from Lunaris Reach, a moonlit planet known for silver cliffs, quiet observatories, crater markets, and gravity games played beneath enormous pale skies.

Growing up, Mira was fascinated by motion. While other kids collected moonstones, she collected smooth skipping discs, old game tokens, and tiny impact charms found near ancient crater fields. She loved studying how things spun, bounced, tilted, and flipped. What began as a childhood game eventually became her craft.

Mira designs and sells Comet Strikers: thicker, weightier pieces made to strike Starcaps during Orbit & Impact games. She takes the balance of each striker seriously, checking its weight, spin, edge smoothness, and “bonk potential” before placing it in the shop. To Mira, a good striker should feel lucky in your hand before it ever touches the pile.

She met Mochi during a late-night crater match on Lunaris Reach. Mochi had wandered into the game circle, stolen a practice striker, and sat on it like a tiny moon dragon guarding treasure. Instead of chasing him away, Mira offered him a softer seat and a snack. Mochi decided this was excellent customer service and never really left.

Now the two run Orbit & Impact together. Mira handles the shop, rules, balance testing, and careful explanations. Mochi handles morale, dramatic squeaks, and occasionally hiding the best strikers because he has “opinions.”

Mira believes games should be exciting, fair, and just a little magical. She is already preparing players for future Starcap Showdown matches, where a steady hand, a good striker, and a bit of courage may decide which Starcaps flip.
