Mirya is a tall woman with long red hair. A little of the tan she has borne most of her life still remains, though it has been washed pale by the relatively cooler Cairhienin climate, and a dusting of freckles can be made out across the bridge of her long straight nose. It is a little hard to focus on the nose due to the intensity of the gaze of the two startlingly bright emerald green eyes.

She is dressed in Cairhienin fashion, though the matching of colours and styles is not strictly traditional, as if she isnt fully aware of what colours will go well with which, or perhaps she simply does not care. The effect is a little bohemian, though not unatractive. She wears flat soled walking shoes, but seems uncomfortable in them, lacking grace. She often removes them and when she does, her whole bearing changes and she walks lightly and fluidly.
