Biography
was a female cyborg secret agent for the Number Nine Group and answered to the team's leader Number Zero. Her colleagues included Mylene Hoffman (009-1), Vanessa Ibert (009-3) and Berta Kastner (009-4). The Number Nine Group operated in the interests of the Western Bloc during the extended Cold War and were often in conflict with their European rivals of the Eastern Bloc. Mia specialized in the art of disguise and could adapt her appearance, voice and personality to match that of nearly anyone she chose. This was not just a skill she possessed, but was actually a function of her cybernetically enhanced body, which consisted of a special bio-skin that was maleable and interacted with her cybernetic systems and could change through an act of will.

Of all the members of the group, Mia was the most playful and enjoyed using her skills to stage the occasional prank on her teammates, such as masquerading as a priest in a rectory above the group's secret meeting chambers.

Mia's earliest recorded assignment with the Number Nine Group involved rescuing a Russian defector from the Eastern Bloc named Zond Soyuz. Soyuz had developed an energy source of great magnitude, one that would tip the scales heavily in favor of the Western Bloc. He was being held captive by a man named Ivan Godunov. While 009-1 used her feminine wiles to ascertain the location of the castle keep where Soyuz was being held, Mia used her mastery of disguise to infiltrate Godunov's inner circle. Although the team was unable to safeguard Soyuz, they did succeed in securing his invention. Connery was responsible for eliminating Godunov.
