After everything that happened in Australia, Miriam and her family decided to move to Beacon Hills from a job offer.

Since then, she's been a usually quiet person with the intention of not making too many friends. Every seventh moon, or as she called it: "the Seventh Cycle of the Moon," was the one time the power of the full moon was strong enough to put her under a full moon trance. After that, evertime she's woken up, she always gets a new power she couldn't control at first. With time, however, she was quick to learn how to control it.
