Miata

Miata is Claymore No. 4 of the present generation. She is known as "Blood Eye" by her peers. Her powers lie in her keen senses and brute strength (she can kill Normal Yoma with her bare hands). She is extremely powerful despite being a child, and even had the potential of becoming No. 1.

She is similar to Priscilla, as is, both were children though high of rank in the Organization. and both had a strong attachment to their parents.

Etymology
"Miata" is a transliteration of the Japanese "Miāta" (ミアータ, pronounced "me-aH-ta").

In the West, "Miata" derives from another source. According to "A Middle-English Dictionary," by Stratmann and Bradley, "miata" is Old High German for "reward" that was used during the Middle Ages.

In African origin, Miata means "First born" or First Lady". This could allude to Miata who could have been No. 1 in the Organization.

Claymore
Miata is a young girl with very long straight hair which covers most of her face. She wears the standard Claymore uniform.

Awakened Being
Though only partially shown as of the present, it is evident that Miata's awakened form consists of angelic and serpentine components, sporting several feathered wings amidst a tangle of coils.

Personality
Miata is completely focused in battle and doesn't seem to get along with people she doesn't know.

At time she has shown hints of mental instability, such as drawing a sword on Clarice when first meeting her. However she has now formed a strong, daughter-like attachment to Clarice, most likely because she is still just a child. Outside of battle she acts very much like a young child, even going as far as mimic breastfeeding from Clarice, and disliking baths and bad-flavored food (i.e. the yoki-suppression medicine).

Heightened Senses
Described as a "sixth sense," Miata's five senses are heightened to the point where she can fight instinctively, track other warriors, and determine their strength without having to sense their yoki. This ability allows her to hide her yoki from sensors such as Galatea. Unlike many other Claymores with yoki-suppression abilities, Miata can use her heightened senses to search out other warriors without releasing her yoki and opening herself up to detection.

Massive Strength
As a result of her berserk nature, Miata has the strength to fight yoma without the aid of her sword. She demonstrates this feat against multiple yoma, tearing a large group of them to pieces, and even pulling against Awakened Beings larger than herself, if only for a moment, such as Agatha's massive 'platform.'

Employment as a Claymore
The Organization gives the order to Clarice to become Miata's handler. When Clarice first meets Miata, she realizes that Miata is nothing more than an unstable child and she finds Miata's combination of power and insanity frightening. Miata has an extreme obsession with her parents and imposes this on Clarice, whom she treats as her mother (even going so far as to attempt breastfeeding on a regular basis). Miata would be higher-ranked if she were more stable, and apparently has the potential to become No. 1.

Battle in Rabona
Miata's unique ability is her extremely heightened senses of vision, hearing, smell, taste and touch, which allow her to fight instinctively without relying on the need to sense Yoki. She has been described as having a "sixth sense" which allows her to identify other warriors' strength, track down warriors on yoki suppressants or fight without the filter of thoughts. It is because of this ability that she was chosen to track down and eliminate Galatea, who, because of her constantly suppressed Yoki, cannot be traced. Along with her heightened senses and massive strength she also has incredible regenerative abilities despite being an offensive type.

Miata is shown to be relentless when attacking her foes, not backing down until they are dead. This makes her appear more like a "Berserker" in battle than a warrior. This is shown in her fight with Galatea in Rabona, where despite the appearance of the Awakened Being Agatha during the fight, she kept following the original mission of killing Galatea. Not even Clarice could make her stop. Only the sight of seeing Clarice being attacked by Agatha made her switch targets. Clare and the other survivors of the North show up and manage to kill Agatha, saving Miata and Galatea's lives.

After the fight with Agatha was over Miata stayed in Rabona with Clarice and Galatea. Later, she is shown assisting in the defense of the city with Clarice and Galatea when yoma attack the city.

Knowing that the tides of the battle were against them, Galatea convinced Clarice to help her in carrying out a Soul Link, i.e. together, the two of them would take on Beth's role, allowing Miata to fully awaken while they keep her mind intact. Once awaken her power reached that of the Abyssal Ones.

Clarice
Clarice is sent by the organization to watch Miata. Miata occasionally attempts to breastfeed on her and looks at her as a mother figure, even calling her "Mama." Her attachment to Clarice is so strong that she's terrified of Clarice hating or abandoning her when she was scolded for not taking the yoki-suppression medicine. During the battle with Agatha it was also shown that she's highly protective of Clarice, becoming infuriated at Agatha terrorizing her.
