=== Personality ===
== Story ==
Mira was a spoiled child, always tormenting the Tonberries and writing spells on the walls. When the Miasma disappeared, so did her father, who sealed himself inside the Dark Crystal. Feeling abandoned, Mira developed a resentment against him.
On her sixteenth birthday, Mira is crowned the new Darklord and has declared total war between monsters and people. She embarks on a conquest aboard her Flying Tower and arrives to a town where, despite her initial attack, does not cower in fear from her sight. Tonbetty explains that thanks to the humorous-looking shape of the tower, the villagers confused it for a kind of celebration. Mira leaves the town to resolve the issue.
Mira commands her servant Tonberries to find a famous hero whom she could crush. In search for a hero to defeat, Mira arrives to the hideout of a caravan of burglars, in hope that by defeating the famous Striped Brigands she will obtain the reputation of a dreaded Darklord and lots of striped apples for pie.
When Mira defeats the gang leader it is discovered they are actually the Stripped Brigand lead by Bel Dat. Bel Dat, irritated by the whole ordeal, expresses that she does have a great treasure, the secret of the new Darklord being half-demon, half-Selkie, and she starts to spread the secret all over the world.
Mira goes on a rampage, giving Tonbetty a drop kick that almost makes her head fly off. When asked to discuss the matter with her father, she refuses and sends the Tonberries to find herself another hero, a female adventurer ready to challenge the Darklord.
Upon defeating the adventurer, it turns out to be none other than Princess Fiona of Alfitaria, who wishes Mira could serve as a bridge between people and monsters so all races could live at peace. Mira, struck by emotion, forgets to deliver the final blow, letting the princess escape.
While Mira is enclosed in her bedroom, Stiltzkin arrives to the tower to pay a visit to his old friend Tonbetty. Mira discovers the meeting and sets out to punish them. A legendary hero and his apprentice arrive at the steps of the Flying Tower, postponing Tonbetty's and Stiltzkin's punishment after their defeat.
After defeating Hugh Yurg, Mira is ready to deliver punishment to Tonbetty and Stiltzkin, when Darklord Craydall appears and reveals he was the one who put Tonbetty at her service. Mira realizes her father has been the narrator this whole time, and expresses the resentment she feels against him. He tells her that the potential to become a great Darklord was always in her, so he could retire peacefully into the Crystal. Before leaving, he presents her with a last challenge.
Mira forgets about the punishment and embarks to the final confrontation against the king of the most prosperous kingdom. When Mira arrives at victory, between threats and mockery, she announces the end of her world-conquering campaign. She would like to work with the king to make the world a peaceful place for both people and monsters. That is, without giving up being the Darklord that she is, earning the title of Princess of Light and Darkness.
Sometime later, the rumor about the King's Seal spreads, an artifact with the supposed power to make whoever gains it the leader of the world. The rumor states the artifact is somewhere on the island Mira is vacationing at, so she races against other adventurers to claim it.
Later, Fiona reveals that her true intentions was to make Mira construct her tower in the spot where she could offer her a magnificent view as a present. Though the present is welcomed, it is implied that Mira ends up punishing Fiona for the trick.
