Shiro's energy fluctuates, but generally-speaking she is neither energetic nor lethargic, and tends to have a good amount of stamina.

None.
Medication:
None.
Phobias: (Things that simply terrify your character. May be trivial or debilitating.)
She is terrified of losing her sister or being in a world where her sister is no longer around. She also has a milder fear or wasps and yellow jackets, but not of bees, which she is perfectly fine with.
Mental Disorders: (Ex: Depression, Bipolar Disorder, Paranoia.)
She has social anxiety and is prone to be depressed if she's not able to see her sister on a frequent enough basis.
Attitude: (How does your character interact with others?)
Shiro isn't the best at socialization. She sometimes can be too blunt, and is often very soft-spoken. She deals with social anxiety, which sometimes can hinder her ability to do well in face-to-face conversations.
Stability: (How emotionally consistent are they?)
Shiro is pretty emotionally consistent, and doesn't have many severe mood swings. Generally, her mood is fairly neutral, nether angry nor joyful.

When Depressed: (Ex: locks themself in their room, listens to music, hugs a stuffed animal)
When Shiro is sad, she locks herself in her room and doesn't come out until she's cried all of her sadness away. She retreats from social contact even more than she usually would, and doesn't do well when prodded to try to get back into the swing of things. She needs time to reflect and figure out how best to get her emotional levels back to normal.
When Angry: (Ex: Punches walls, screams at people, trolls online)
When angry, she lashes out and tends to destroy things, ripping books or slamming computer monitors. She doesn't get angry often, but when she does, you'd do best to stay out of her way.

Work Ethic: (How hard does your character work? How do they feel about their job?)
Shiro works very hard at her job and loves every minute of it. She feels that having such an important occupation is something to be proud of, and one that every single individual should strive to attain at least once in life. She also thinks that without something to preoccupy her time and keep her mind busy, she would be bored out of her brain, so she likes that her job is so challenging.
Rank: (How high up are they on the corporate ladder?)
Shiro currently is not at the top of the working ladder, but she's pretty near the top - perhaps four rungs down from the tippy-top. She is content with her current position, but knows that if that ever changes she can easily climb up to the top whenever she darn well pleases to.

She has a very dry sense of humor, and can slip into dirty jokes or childish banter if the mood suits her. She is intelligent enough to do well at some dark and witty humor, as well as sarcasm, whenever she feels like it.
Pet Peeves: (Similar to dislikes, only more relating to human behavior than specific objects. Ex: When people tap on things or when people say "You're not fat!" when you really are)
One of Shiro's pet peeves is when people don't keep classrooms clean, and then she has to use them. Or libraries. Or rooms. Or ANYTHING being overly messy, honestly. A little clutter is understandable, but she absolutely HATES having to deal with a pigsty.
Superstitions/Beliefs: (Does your character believe in conspiracy theories or aliens? Do they throw salt over their shoulder or knock on wood?)

Savvy: (What is your character particularly well-informed of?)
Shiro is very well-learned in the realms of aquatic zoology and anything else relating to her job.
Can't Understand: (Something they just can't get into, such as English literate or obsession with sports)
Shiro has difficulty connecting with others. Her sister Noel and she get along quite well, but other than her family members, Shiro just doesn't understand how others feel and often finds it difficult to understand others' emotions and feelings.
Closet Hobby: (Something that your character likes but isn't too obvious.)
Shiro is very much into learning the violin. She isn't amazing at it yet, but she hopes to fine-tune her musical abilities all on her own, as she refuses to pay for a teacher when she could easily teach it to herself, as she has done with most other hobbies and skills she's acquired over the years.
Guilty Pleasure:
Watching any type of anime and stuffing her face full of popcorn.
Strengths: (What makes them stand a bit above the crowd? [Ex: Courageous, good listener, calm under pressure] Not supernatural abilities.)

Shiro doesn't laugh loudly, and usually covers her mouth with a paw as she quietly and daintily chuckles to herself.
Is there an animal you equate with your character?
Most would see her as a door-mouse, quiet and dainty, but to the individual who knows her best, Shiro is like an elephant, as her memory stretches far beyond what her outer appearances would dictate.
Symbol: (Does your character have any kind of recurring symbol that represents them? [Ex: a rose, a black cat, a sunset] Could be blatant or subtle.)
A cherry blossom tree in full bloom amongst a scene of freshly-fallen snow.
