Summary
Mia Karnstein is one of the main characters of Code Vein, a soulslike action RPG. As a revenant, she fought for survival inside the Gaol of the Mists alongside her younger brother, Nicola. However, everything changed one day when a mysterious revenant known as the Hunter assassinated Nicola, leaving her with nothing but his ashes before she was rescued by the Queenslayer. With new, strange visions of a snowy mountain, and with Nicola's memory in tow, she joined the Queenslayer to stop the Hunter and to find the snow covered mountain Nicola's memory left behind.
It is later discovered that the Hunter was specifically going after successors who had frenzied and that Nicola was, in fact, one of the successors. Nicola had been locked away on the snow covered mountain within Mia's dreams all this time, with the Nicola that Mia had known for so long purely being a projection Nicola made with his powers in an attempt to keep Mia safe.
Mia is often distant and cold towards outsiders, being fierce and hostile towards anyone she considers a threat. However, as shown through Nicola and through her comrades after some time, she has a soft and compassionate side and nigh boundless loyalty towards anyone she considers a friend.
