Mid Previa (ミド・プリヴィア, Mido Purivia?) is the grandson of Cid Previa in Final Fantasy V. Cid raised him after his father died in an experiment three years prior to the events of the game. He looks up to Cid, who taught him to never quit, and became as interested in science as Cid himself.

He is first met in the Library of the Ancients, where the books have become possessed. Bartz, Lenna, Galuf, and Faris fight the monster Byblos while Mid is reading a book, and does not seem to notice.

However, when Cid blames himself for destroying the Fire Crystal, Mid is stunned to hear that his grandfather has given up on science, and knocks some sense into him. Together, the two of them become a formidable team, by combining their intellect. When the party finds the airship, they enlist the help of Mid and Cid to rebuild it. Together, they get the airship running again.

At the end of the game, Mid receives a letter from Krile. The letter states how she misses everyone, since they have all moved on.

Final Fantasy: Legend of the CrystalsEdit

Several years later, Mid sees the demon Ra Devil trying to raid his grandfather's grave. Watching in horror as the villain removes Cid's brain from his body, Mid is eventually pierced through the heart by Ra Devil. He dies on the spot.

Unable to rest, he becomes a ghost, and befriends Prettz and Linaly, the descendant of his friend Bartz. With his help, they defeat Ra Devil, who has since transformed himself into the God of oblivion Deathgyunos using the Crystals. In the end Mid retrieves Cid's brain from Deathgyunos' body and is able to pass over to the afterlife.

TriviaEdit

  • In the Dawn of Souls and 20th Anniversary remakes of the original Final Fantasy, Mid is one of the automatic names the player can choose for the Red Mage Job.
  • Mid from Final Fantasy IV: The After Years is seemingly a reference to Mid Previa; not only in namesake, but they are both the grandchild of a character named Cid.
  • Since Mid Previa's debut, the name "Mid" has become common among direct male relatives of Cid in various games. Balthier's birth name is Ffamran mied Bunansa, Cid Garlond's father's name is "Midas", and the Cid of Final Fantasy XI has a son named "Midras".
