Appearance and Attire
Melissa bears a strong resemblance to her mother, with long dark blue hair and twilight-colored eyes that give her an ethereal look. She usually wears a blue dress uniform with white cuffs and a golden-buttoned apron, while during training she prefers practical tunics and trousers.
Background and Origins
Melissa Kaelus is the illegitimate daughter of Duke Valen Kaelus, raised in the slums under difficult circumstances. Her mother sacrificed greatly, working tirelessly at a brothel to support her until she fell ill and passed away. Melissa’s relationship with her father is strained, as he sees her chiefly as a tool to advance his own ambitions rather than as his daughter.
Role and Position
Melissa holds the important position of first attendant to the princess, serving as her closest aide and companion.
Personality and Behavior
Melissa’s character is driven by a strong survival instinct, making choices that ensure her continued existence, including reluctantly following her father’s plans and serving the princess. She is clever and strategic, skilled in planning and handling dangerous situations. Though she often complains during tough training, her determination to improve remains unwavering. Her relationship with the princess is complex: she admires the princess’s music but privately sees her as a cold, calculating “monster,” feeling both fear and loyalty toward her.
From a vulnerable girl shaped by hardship to a formidable force molded by intense training and unwavering resolve. Serving as the first attendant to the princess, she navigates a delicate balance of loyalty, fear, and survival while proving herself a powerful and strategic presence in the kingdom.
