Bia was the personification of Force and Violence.

Bia was a mythological figure that mainly personified the abstract meaning of violence for the ancient Greeks. Bia was brought forth by the Oceanid Styx, a personification of the sacred river of oaths, and her mate Pallas.

Bia's brothers and sisters include Nike, the goddess of victory, Zelos, the spirit of emulation and Cratos, who was a personification of strength.
