Mia is the first myrmidon that joins the party. She starts with excellent base skill and speed, having more reliable hitrates and doubling, and has the excellent Vantage skill. Her strength base and durability are not great and she does not have a mount. Unfortunately, she joins during a period where most enemy units are ranged or lance users, making it difficult to use her. Her growths in skill, speed, and luck are all good, so she will consistently double and remain dodgy, but her strength and durability growths are average or worse. Because she is swordlocked the entire game, so her only ranged options are magic swords. As a result, through earlygame and midgame, she often can't be exposed much during enemy phase.

When promoted, Mia gains an innate crit bonus, which helps her offense and complements her good skill. At this point in the game, the player has more options for forges and crit-boosting weapons, so with Vantage, she can frequently slaughter 1-range enemies during enemy phase before they have a chance to hit her. Keep in mind her durability is still low and she still can't do anything to ranged attackers, so this is only reliable against axe-users or using defensive terrain. Note that in the Japanese version of the game, she does NOT gain an innate crit bonus, but she can access 255% crit slim swords with the forge glitch, which complements her Vantage skill.

|blurb2=Mia as a young girl is a lot like the adult Mia, isn’t she? She’s been bursting with positive energy all this time!
|blurb3=In fact, even at this age, she trains her sword arm all day long. I hear her skills with a sword can put even the grown-ups to shame!

|blurb2=This daring duo is made up of Mia, the rookie mercenary who’s aiming for the top, and Luci—I-I mean…the mysterious masked swordsman who goes by the name of Marth!
|blurb3=They’re both wearing swimsuits for the summer, and together, they’re more radiant than the sun itself. And while you’re checking out their attire, don’t miss the flowers they’re wearing in their hair!
|blurb4=I don’t think this is the first time Mia has had Marth’s back, either—in fact, I hear they’ve fought side by side in Tempest Trials before! Though they come from different worlds, they make a surprisingly good team!
|Related_name1=Ike
|Related_blurb1=A kindhearted but stoic young man who has taken command of his father’s mercenary band. He recruits Mia into the group.

*In the North American version of ''Radiant Dawn'', Mia's Introduction page erroneously states that she was rescued by Ike from prison when in actuality she was rescued by Greil. This error was not present in the Japanese version and was fixed in the PAL version.
