Mila Steiner

* Relatives

**Mila Steiner** is one of the Main Characters in Summer's Gone, and one of the main Love Interest for Nika. She is among Nika's potential Love Interest who is also a new student at ZPR University. She plays a key role in the game's central story and becomes a closer of Nika regardless of whether he chooses to have a relationship with her.

## Appearance

Mila is tall comparatively speaking to other female students at ZPR. However what attracts even more, often unwanted, attention from others are her voluptuous and shapely body. A trait that other females also appreciate and/or jealous of.

Over the course of the story she had changed her hair a number of times, though generally kept at medium length. Her hair is platinum blonde, contrasting her eyes and eye brows which are brown.

Nika noted Mila's fashion as rather promiscuous, despite Mila hating the attention and advances from unwanted males. Still, Mila would prefer to wear those kind of clothing.

## Personality

In contrast to Nika's cold personality, Mila was warm upon first meeting, though cautious especially to Nika. Despite her terrible childhood experiences and home environment, she remained kind, approachable and friendly to most others. She is honest and willing to be up front about herself with others, hoping others would do the same to her. She is one to want friendly and respectful relationship with everyone where possible. To anyone she gets along well with, Mila likes to show physical touch such as hugs.

She has a playful side of her that is not seen unless she is safe and comfortable. A characteristic shared with Nami whom they together raided Maja's secret toy stash.

However, Nika believe Mila have a prideful side where she is very reluctant to receiving help from others. She seems to be aware of this after Nika pointed this out a few times, and unlike others Mila took the criticism rather well.

At the beginning of the story, Mila worked hard and have been saving money, demonstrating her hardworking mentality and a go-getter attitude. As Nika get to know her more and more, she becomes more open and up front with Nika, showing a more carefree and sweet side of her when they spontaneously relax near a lake.

Overall, most would find Mila a nice person to acquaint or be friends with.

Compare to other Love Interests, Mila are one of the more shyer ones to show her attraction to MC, that is until a few shots after.

## Background

Mila's childhood was plagued by bullies due to her unfortunate background - a mother who works as a prostitute and an unknown father. Her step father had also been violent and unstable, clearly not very respectful to Mila nor care about her.

Despite this Mila had work hard to study at ZPR college, looking to major in Business Sales and Human Resources. She also currently have a job at a café in the hopes of moving out one day away from her unstable home environment.
