Lamidia is a wise and understanding major in the Mars armed forces. She urges the general assembly to send reinforcements to the resistance fighters on Earth and when she learns of the plan to destroy the continent she takes her subordinates and hijacks a spaceship to stand in the Hecatoncheir's way. In the final battle it is her voice that persuades the leaders on Mars to hold back their orbital bombardment and allow the resistance the time they need to remove the MME.
