==Appearance and Personality==

Line 22:

Mia and Erik know nothing about their birthplace or parents, as they were found out in the snow near Sniflheim by Vikings as young children and forced to work as their servants. Mia would begin stealing gold from the Vikings whenever she could and developed an obsession with it, something which Erik grew to detest about her. However, the reason that Mia coveted gold was that she wanted to be able to leave the Vikings forever with her brother and be able to live comfortable somewhere else.

Mia and Erik are the playable characters of the game, having been whisked away to the floating archipelago of [[Draconia]] one fateful evening after freeing a pair of [[Porcus|unusual]] [[Purrsula|creatures]] from a cage on the main mast of the viking ship they voyaged on. The children soon become swept up in a grand treasure hunt, competing with rival factions such as the villainous [[Thunderous Plunderers]] and the friendlier [[Sylphanian Expedition]], all while setting up their own base of operations on [[Eggshell Island]]. Mia is partnered with Porcus, who lays on her head when at rest.

==Trivia==

* Mia's ability to turn anything she touched into gold, granted to her by the cursed necklace, is a reference to the Greek myth of King '''Mi'''d'''a'''s, who was granted the same power by the god Dionysus. He soon came to regret his power, as any food and drink he touched would turn to gold, causing him to starve.

* In the original Japanese version of the game, Mia refers to herself using the pronoun ''ore'' (おれ), which is typically used by boys and young men in anime and manga, but can be used by women as well in order to emphasize someone with a rude, gruff, or ~~unladylike~~ personality.

* In the original Japanese version of the game, Mia refers to herself using the pronoun ''ore'' (おれ), which is typically used by boys and young men in anime and manga, but can be used by women as well in order to emphasize someone with a rude, gruff, or tomboy personality.
