Misha Miramond is a human researcher specializing in energon applications, with a focus on its potential for peaceful uses. Her work takes her to energon mining facilities across Earth, including research centers in Plains City and Desert City. The weaponization of her research by human scientists and their Autobot allies creates significant ethical conflict for her. She maintains a close relationship with Kicker Jones, though her assignments cause geographical separation that strains their connection at times. Following the death of her parents, Pierre and Olie Miramond, during her childhood, Misha developed a strong bond with Kicker. She regards Dr. Brian Jones, Kicker's father and the leading expert on energon, as both a mentor and a surrogate father figure. When Terrorcons attacked Earth's energon facilities, Misha remained at Desert City against evacuation orders, resulting in her being trapped alongside another scientist during an assault. Kicker, Strongarm, and Ironhide executed a rescue mission while Optimus Prime engaged Tidal Wave. Misha later expressed concern to Hot Shot about Kicker's excessive worry for her safety. Her commitment to Dr. Jones's philosophy of peaceful energon use made her reluctant to operate defensive gun emplacements at research stations, though she fulfilled this duty when necessary. At the energon towers conference in Ocean City, she reassured Kicker after a mission setback and attempted to mediate tensions between Kicker and Dr. Jones. Misha's role expanded aboard the spaceship Miranda II with Optimus Prime's unit. Equipped with a yellow spacesuit that allowed her hair to flow freely in vacuum without ill effects, she served as an energon systems specialist and operations officer. Her responsibilities included monitoring energon field emitters, managing defenses during combat, and releasing raw energon ore for tactical purposes. She frequently challenged Kicker's self-important behavior during missions. On one occasion, she followed him into space against orders during an attempt to rescue Ironhide, demonstrating her stubbornness. This action led them to encounter Rodimus and Alpha Q. She later observed and supported Kicker's efforts to persuade Alpha Q to aid the Autobots, recognizing Alpha Q's positive response despite initial appearances. Misha played a key role in reaching out to Alpha Q after Unicron's rampage disrupted peace talks. Ignoring Alpha Q's attempts to deter her with Insecticons, she approached him directly. She empathized with his loneliness and convinced him they shared a common goal of fighting for their planets. She continued mediating between Kicker and Dr. Jones, urging Kicker to seek Earth's aid in supplying energon for Cybertron's defense. After traveling through a spatial rift created by Unicron's destruction, Misha coordinated efforts from the Miranda II in Alpha Q's new solar system. She established an energon grid linking Jungle, Rock, Blizzard, and Ocean Planets to protect them from Decepticon incursions. She also located Planet Q when Alpha Q began channeling vast energon reserves to recreate his homeworld. Irritated at being excluded from information about the Autobot Grand Prix, Misha entered the race late with Arcee while disguised. They won the event after frontrunners Hot Shot and Ironhide became distracted. Her name fluctuated inconsistently in early episodes between "Mika," "Micha," and "Misha" before stabilizing as the latter, with corresponding pronunciation differences in dialogue.
