The story of Noss, the protagonist of the Noss & Zakuro manga created by Rariatoo, takes place in the peculiar supernatural city of Shadowsville, a place that exists between this world and the next. Noss is a powerful but shy Nosferatu-type ancient vampire who has chosen a quiet life away from the darkest vampire traditions.

Rather than consuming human blood, Noss and her adopted daughter Zakuro prefer to drink blood from juice boxes, a choice that reflects their desire to peacefully integrate into the community of supernatural creatures that inhabit Shadowsville. They live together in a cozy house on the edge of town, sharing their daily lives with monstrous friends and participating in everyday activities like shopping or watching videos at home.

Although the manga doesn't delve extensively into Noss's past, it's clear that her decision to adopt Zakuro and start a family reflects her longing for connection and affection in a world where supernatural creatures seek their place. The dynamic between Noss and Zakuro, marked by the contrast between the mother's serenity and the daughter's boundless energy, brings an endearing and comedic tone to the series.

Noss's story is, at its core, a celebration of found family and the harmonious coexistence of beings of different natures, all wrapped up in an atmosphere of supernatural comedy and charming everyday situations.

Noss has a calm, elegant, and somewhat reserved personality. She's a vampire who prefers to avoid the classic stereotypes of aggressive or dramatic vampires. Here are some more detailed traits of her character:

Calm and patient: Noss rarely gets upset, and usually faces situations calmly, even when her daughter Zakuro gets into trouble.

Protective and maternal: Although she is not very emotionally expressive, it is clear that she deeply loves Zakuro and cares about his well-being.

Eccentrically Refined: She has peculiar but sophisticated tastes, and prefers to lead a “modern” life (such as drinking blood from juice boxes instead of hunting).

Unintentionally Funny: Her seriousness and calmness contrast with Zakuro's chaotic energy, making her inadvertently funny in absurd situations.

Reserved but kind: She is not very social, but when she talks to others, she does so in a polite and considerate manner.

In short, Noss is the balance in the duo she forms with Zakuro: the stable and mature figure amidst the supernatural and youthful chaos that her daughter represents.
