Despite her selfish nature, she can be appreciative for things people did for her, such as thankful for Anne's loyalty, appreciating Ludwig's pleas for her life, and valuing the gift Wagul has given her.

Matthias Luna Tearmoon
Matthias is Mia's father. Mia grew up without a mother, but she never felt lonely because she has her dad. In the previous timeline, Matthias was executed before Mia and she was devastated at the news and wished she had spent more time with him.

Adelaide Luna Tearmoon
Mia's mother who passed away when Mia was little. She doesn't remember much about her mother, but wearing the dress her mother has passed down to her, makes her feel emotional.

Miabel Luna Tearmoon
Mia's granddaughter from the future. Although she cares about Miabel, Mia dislikes Bel's occasional slip of calling her "grandmother". Mia wants to create a happy future (dream) for Bel where she is surrounded by loved ones and where she doesn't have worry about food or clothing; the very happy never ending dream Bel often talked about. As a grandmother, Mia pampers Bel and Bel often goes to her room to hide whenever she gets in trouble with Ludwig or Lynsha, knowing her grandmother will protect her.

Patricia Luna Tearmoon
Patricia is Mia's paternal grandmother whom she wants to save from the influence of Chaos Serpents.

Marquis Cotillard
Marquis Cotillard is Mia's uncle who spoiled her when she was little. He'd buy her gifts, dresses, and fed her cakes.

Hildebrandt Cotillard
Hildebrandt is Mia’s older cousin whom she played with when she was little. She found him to be a foolish lad when he announced he wanted to become a cake when he grew up. Mia reunites with Hildebrandt on the summer break of her 16th year, and she is impressed that he turns out to be a decent person despite his childhood foolishness.

Anne Littstein
Before Mia was executed, Anne was one of the few people who came to visit Mia until the execution date. Anne helped combing Mia's hair, helped her bathe, read to her the stories Elise wrote, and sometimes snuck in sweets for her. On Mia's execution day, Mia bowed her head to Anne, thanking her for everything.

In the current timeline, Mia reunited with Anne and promoted her into her personal attendant to repay the favors she did back then. As Mia's maid, Anne is also her right hand and confidante. As a maid, Anne makes sure Mia doesn't lack necessities and always looks beautiful. Sometimes Anne feels jealous of others who are also mindful about Mia's wellbeing because Anne believes that it is her job to make sure Mia is healthy and well. Anne is protective of Mia and is also seen to be still serving her for decades to come.

Ludwig Hewitt
Before Mia was executed, Ludwig worked tirelessly trying to save the doomed empire. Ludwig disliked Mia, but he still stuck around trying to help her rebuild the empire. When being around her long enough, he noticed how Mia was just oblivious to things, and she would put in efforts to change herself if someone had pointed out her oblivions. After he scolded her for not remembering her classmate's face, he was surprised that she made an attempt to do better at remembering people's faces with their names written and faces drawn on a notebook. Another time after they were driven out of a village, Mia asked for a cake to share with the angry villagers. In that moment, Ludwig realized that Mia wasn't entirely selfish and started seeing her in a different light. He knew Mia deserved a second chance as a reward for her hard work, so he went around appealingTiona and Sion to spare her life. Unfortunately, his pleas fell on deaf ears. He wished that if there was another timeline, he'd be there for Mia and guide her. After her execution, Ludwig refused to serve either Sion and Tiona, and he disappeared from political world ever since.

In Mia's do-over timeline, Mia seeks Ludwig in order to utilize his ideas to change the future. To make Mia empress and paving her the road to glory, Ludwig has gathered his classmates who studied under Galv, and they formed the Empress Faction, which later rivals factions of the four dukes. The current Ludwig pledges his loyal to Mia, not because of her wisdom or intelligence, but because of her essence as a person.

Elise Littstein
Before Mia was executed, Elise wrote a story titled “The Poor Prince and the Golden Dragon” however, the story was not completed due to Elise dying during the plague. Since Mia enjoyed this story so much, Elise is hired as a Court Author. Elise is also the author of The Chronicles of Saint-Princess Mia, a supposedly non-fiction work that contains many fictional and delusional stories of Mia that even Mia herself cringes at its contents sometimes.

Dion Alaia
A knight who had the honor to behead Mia in the previous timeline. In the current timeline, he is loyal to Mia and aims to become a general for her sake. Mia grows to trust Dion, despite still lowkey afraid of him.

Wagul Lulu
A dying boy whom Mia saved on the street. As gratitude, he gave Mia a hairpin that belonged to his mother. He has a crush on Mia.

Cyril Rudolvon
Younger brother of Tiona whom she praised and tried to secure his future invention for famine. Tiona confirmed that Cyril has a crush on Mia.

Lorenz Etoile Yellowmoon
Lorenz is thankful that Mia gave him and his daughter, Citrina, a chance to be freed from the ancient curse. He is the first duke to show his support to Mia.

Mazana Etoile Redmoon
Manzana supports Mia wholeheartedly and he even goes as far as trying to become family with her by betrothing his daughter, Ruby, to Mia's cousin, Hildebrandt, to prove his loyalty.

Duke Bluemoon
Nothing is known about Duke Bluemoon except he doesn't support Mia and he wants to put his son, Sapphias, on the throne with the support of his faction.

Duke Greenmoon
In the previous timeline, he betrayed the imperial family. It is unknown if he supports Mia or not at the moment, but his daughter, Esmeralda, has the honor to be the princess's best friend.

Esmeralda Etoile Greenmoon
Esmeralda is Mia's best friend. When Mia was a kid, they got along well even in the past timeline. However, the "redo" Mia only saw Esmeralda as someone she considered "We're friends, I guess", prior to Volume 5. Esmeralda believed Mia to be her best friend, despite knowing it was just her being one-sided about it in the friendship. The reason for Mia's hostile attitude towards Esmeralda was because Esmeralda and her family betrayed Mia in the previous timeline. Mia didn't know that Esmeralda, personally, never betrayed Mia, and the young Etoile wanted to stay in Tearmoon to fulfill the promise she made with her princess.

Esmeralda enjoyed teasing and humiliating Mia in front of others as revenge for not seeing her as a friend prior to Volume 5. However, Esmeralda also admires Mia for being carefree and not acting like a prideful aristocrat. She gets defensive whenever someone talks bad about Mia. When it comes to Mia, Esmeralda feels like an older sister and cousin to her since they are distant relatives. The Etoile never misses Mia's birthday parties and she is supportive of the princess no matter what. Mia realizes that Esmeralda is actually a good friend and the thought of losing her makes her cry. Esmeralda is the first Etoile to pledge her loyalty oath, which later followed by the other three Etoiles. Even though Esmeralda is a chicken at heart, she is willing to risk herself to protect Mia if danger looms.

Sapphias Etoile Bluemoon
Sapphias offered to help Mia win the election by using dirty tricks in exchange for a seat in the student council, but she refused, and it made him angry and depressed after all the confident he wrote to his fiancée that he had join the Student Council. Mia believed that Sapphias and his family were a part of Chaos Serpents, so she invited him to the student council to observe him, to which he was thankful for that without knowing her true intention. Assisting Mia for a few years in the student council, changes Sapphias and he is no longer the arrogant noble that he was. Even though his family and faction are against Mia becoming the next empress, Sapphias wholeheartedly supports her. Sapphias, along with the other three eldest children of dukes, pledged their loyalty oath to Mia.

Ruby Etoile Redmoon
In the previous timeline, Ruby resented Mia for Vanos' death. In the current timeline, Ruby challenged Mia in the Horsemanship Tournament in exchange for Vanos. After the tournament, Mia realized Ruby is in love with Vanos, so she assigned Ruby to become an adjutant and vice-captain of the Princess Guard just so Ruby can be close to her crush. Along with the fellow oldest children of dukes, Ruby pledged her oath of loyalty to Mia.

Citrina Etoile Yellowmoon
With all the evidence Ludwig had gathered, Mia believed Citrina to a serpent because of the Yellowmoon's association with the first emperor and Chaos Serpent. However, that doubt evaporated once she learned that Citrina is knowledgeable about mushrooms, and her logic was that people who love mushrooms aren't bad, so she decided to trust Citrina. When things came to light, Mia decided to overlook the issue. Along with the other three children of dukes on the week of Mia's 14th birthday celebration, Citrina pledged her loyalty oath to Mia. As someone Mia trusts, Citrina wants to live up to her expectation.

Abel Remno
In the previous timeline, Mia had no involvement with Abel. She only knew his existence as a prince and the fact he was a womanizer. In the current timeline, Mia chose Abel to be her target for romance (specifically out of selfishness and fear of guillotine death) in hope his kingdom will help her fight Sunkland in the revolution if it ever breaks out again. Mia, although self-proclaimed to be the "older sister" in their romantic exchanges, gets flustered whenever Abel throws cheesy lines at her, or when they are engages in P.D.A. Mia acknowledged that Abel's trust is important to her and his kingdom's well-being is also important because it is his homeland. Abel is willing to protect Mia and he considered her to be his dearest person. Abel is obviously in love with Mia and as for Mia, she loves him as well. Abel can be jealous when Mia dances with Sion, but he understands it is her choice and is supportive of it. Mia hopes he expresses his true feelings more, but his kindness and affection only make her heart beat harder for him. Both Mia and Abel flirt with each other whenever they get together (even in public), making it awkward for those who have to witness it. In the future, Mia will have 8 kids with Abel and to her dismay, Mia believed that 8 kids were too much for her to handle and she rejected such future which resulted in Miabel's disastrous timeline. Mia later accepts her fate, saying she will give birth to all 8 kids for Miabel to exist and witness the wonderful future she will create for granddaughter.

Sion Sol Sunkland
In the previous timeline, Mia was infatuated with Sion, believing that they were meant to be together because of their statuses as prince and princess of powerful nations, even though she never loved him. Sion despised her, and his uncountable rejections humiliated Mia greatly. During the revolution, he was one of the two people who sent her straight to the guillotine, causing Mia to feel bitter about what he did back then. After many (failed) attempts at getting revenge, she chose to forgive Sion. Her grudges against Sion have already evaporated. Mia thinks of Sion as a dear friend, and she treasures their current friendship. Sion likes teasing Mia, and she would tease him back. Just like Abel, Sion is also in love with her. The prince gets jealous whenever Mia's attention only lands on Abel as if he doesn't exist. Though Mia favors Abel over Sion in the current timeline, sometimes she lets herself enjoy some unexpected romantic scenarios being played out between her and Sion. Even though Sion loves Mia, he couldn't throw away the duty as Sunkland's crown prince for her affection.

Rafina Orca Belluga
In the previous timeline, Mia tried to befriend Rafina due to her being someone with powers in the academy. Rafina, however, detested Mia and didn't bother remembering Mia's name. In the current timeline, they are good friends and Rafina is the first to reach out to Mia of wanting them to be friends. Mia often goes to Rafina's tea parties, and they get along fairly well, but Mia fears Rafina's wrath sometimes whenever she gets herself into troubles. As Mia's friend, Rafina wants Mia to rely on her and seeks for her help.

Keithwood
Mia relied on Keithwood to help her make horse-sandwiches for Abel with the girls during Swordsmanship Tournament, resulting in Keithwood's chronic trauma and frequent heart attacks whenever he sees the girls in the kitchen or suggesting to cook for the princes. Keithwood is impressed that Mia is knowledgeable about edible plants and herbs, and her wisdom is undeniably glorified, but her strange obsession with mushrooms gave him too many questions to ponder.

Chloe Forkroad
Mia's book friend and a member of the student council. She trusts Chloe greatly and Chloe is the friend she never had in the previous timeline.

Tiona Rudolvon
Mia's enemy who sent her to the guillotine in the previous timeline. In the second timeline, they are friends and Tiona respects Mia. Although Mia had ill thoughts of Tiona and wished to have nothing to with her, but she grew to not dislike having Tiona around after they've been through so much together as allies. Tiona helped Mia gather supporters and she promoted Mia during the presidential election. Mia made Tiona a part of her student council team. Mia remembered how she used to bully Tiona in the previous timeline and felt guilty about it. Mia wanted no regret if she died on Holy Eve, so she went and apologized to Tiona for what she did back then, and the half-confused Tiona accepted her apologies. After the Holy Eve incident, Mia sees Tiona as a true friend.

Rania Tafrif Perujin
Rania is a friend of Mia and she is also a princess from Perujin. Mia attended Rania's tea party and tried out a prank cookie Rania displayed out of mischief. Instead of getting mad at Rania, Mia became fascinated with Perujin's agricultural technology. Mia also gave Rania dance lessons before the Thanksharvest Festival.

Lin Malong
A senior horsemanship club member who taught Mia horsemanship. At first, he thought Mia was just another selfish noble girl, but his respect for her increases when he sees how often she comes to practice, and her willingness to help around the smelly horse stalls that are unsuitable for high class ladies. Malong doesn't care if Mia is a princess, he will scold her if he needs to regarding her horse-riding habits. In the second guillotine timeline, Malong participated in the rescue of Mia without her knowledge because he worked behind the scene in assisting Abel.

Tatiana

Arshia Tafrif Perujin
Like her father, Arshia thought of Mia as a pretentious princess who organized an apology party just to get her to teach at Saint-Mia Academy. Arshia is moved by the three children (Selia, Cyril, and Wagul) at the party and her opinion on Mia changes from detest to respect.

Lynsha is a former noble from Remno and a revolutionist who followed her brother's order to capture Mia, who was a supposed threat to the planned revolution.
