Overall Personality: Meleny is a very sweet person and helpful. She's quite pleasant to be around once you get to know her. Other than her sweet side, she has a side of her that is quite serious. If someone were to engage her in a battle she'll become serious, won't take her eyes off the prize and will risk her life to protect the people she cares about. Part of her serious side is that she's very overprotective of those she loves. She was overprotective of her mother after she married Alexander a few years or so after she was born. She was the only one who noticed the changes in him, his desire for power, etc. After her mother was killed, she vowed that if she ever fell in love it would be with the right guy.

Meleny is tempermental and shouldn't be crossed when she's in a bad mood. Otherwise she is very calm and her usual friendly self. She can be a bit overprotective which usually gets on people's nerves if they think they're capable of keeping themselves out of danger.

Meleny is emotional and sometimes isn't afraid to show she's scared, or in pain but when met with an enemy she'll try to decieve them and cover up her weaknesses which includes trying to hide the scar underneath her right eye which is the only one visible. The others are on her body elsewhere and can only be seen when she's either getting dressed or undressing. Usually she's in control of her emotions and knows when and when not to show them but when she's scared or under stress the chain binding her emotions snaps and she becomes a total wreck.

Meleny is considerate and helpful. She always knows the right thing to say in a bad situation and has always been thought of as a mother figure to the younger students. She protects them from danger. She's also intelligent. When she was a student at Hogwarts she'd help the students with their homework in subjects they were having trouble in.

Overall History: Meleny's parents Alexander and Christina met at Hogwarts during the time of the marauders. Her mother was a HufflePuff and her father a Slytherin. Her father was turned into a vampire at age 39 after Jezebel and Meleny were born. He wasn't a cruel heartless bastard until after he joined Voldemort. He had fallen in love with Christina and vowed never to hurt her before he became corrupted by evil. But when Voldemort became powerful one of his death eaters sought him out and convinced him to join Voldemort. Her father was powerful and after he became a death eater, a force to be reckoned with. He broke his promise to Christina and tried to attack her one night. Her father could not control his blood lust and didn't even bother to. Anyone he came across either ended up dead, turned or unconscious.


When Christina found out she was pregnant the doctor told her she was carrying twins. Along with Meleny inside the womb was a darker baby that would grow up to be the second person to make Meleny's life miserable. This was her twin sister Jezebel and she was the evil twin that you hear so much about in birth stories. Her father had named her and after Jezebel was born Meleny's life became a living hell. The last thing she needed in her life was someone else to degrade and put her down as if her father hadn't already done enough of that. The two of them were constantly at each other's throats and she enjoyed psychologically and physically abusing Meleny. When they attended Hogwarts her sister was sorted into Slytherin and that only esclated their sibling rivarly to a higher level. They competed against each other during Quidditch matches and she never missed a chance to call her a blood traitor.

When Meleny got her letter from Hogwarts on her 11th birthday. Her mother was ecstatic and took her to diagon alley to get her things but not until her father had a word with her about the right kind of wizard folk to mingle with. All her life she had been indoctrinated with pureblood superiority and to stay clear of muggle-borns and blood-traitors. Meleny ignored his lecture and left with her mother. As Meleny's hogwarts education progressed and Voldemort became more powerful, her father became suspicious when he found letters Meleny had been writing home to her mother discussing her life at Hogwarts. She had mentioned standing up for the underdog and intervening when a Slytherin called her friends the McKennas, a brother and sister from a muggle family, mudbloods and taking a course called muggle studies. It later dawned on her father that his own daughter was a blood traitor and in her fourth year during the triwizard tournament when the third task was going on he lured her away from the stands and took her into the forbidden forest where he beat her for selling out the purebloods and putting them to shame for being a muggle lover. That was where she got her first scar. She came out limping, bleeding all over and in pretty bad shape with a scar underneath her right eye. That was the second time she had to be nursed back to health by Madam Pomfrey. The first was the Quidditch incident in her third year.

Jezebel had heard about the letters when they returned home that summer and beat her very badly. Her father was still steaming so he helped and a few unforgivable curses were used on his part. Meleny returned for her fifth year with a black eye, bloodied, and a horrible pain in her ribs. She was sore for many weeks because she had been under the cruciatus curse too long. Madam Pomfrey nursed her back to health the minute she arrived at school so she didn't see the sorting ceremony that year.
Meleny thought she would start her sixth year at Hogwarts with no incident but instead her mother was murdered by her own father and they were having a dispute about the family house elf. House elves were often mistreated by their masters and her father and twin sister was no exception. Meleny longed to free him but she was afraid of getting caught by her father. However she tried one night when the house elf Klavier had been locked in the cellar for insulting her father without thinking. He didn't care that it was against the rules to insult his master. He did so anyway and was proud of that. Emery was furious about it and nearly killed the poor house elf. Meleny had gone down to the basement one day a few days before she was to return to Hogwarts. As she snuck through the house she had one of her socks clutched tightly in her hands. She and her mother were the only ones who treated the elf with respect. When she found him he was chained to the wall and near death. Before she could give him the sock her father and sister came to see what was going on. They knew Meleny would try to free the elf if they didn't watch her closely. Her mother came too to see what was happening and a duel started that ended her mother's life with the killing curse. Meleny did not escape unscatched. She begged the elf to take her sock so he could be free and she desperately wished she could apparate so someone could care for the dying elf. Eventually she settled for calling in a healer from st mungos and she sat with the elf for hours until they came reassuring him everything would be ok while crying for the loss of her mother. Her aunt that lived in London she hadn't seen lately heard about the death of her mother when it made the wizarding news and escorted Meleny to the Hogwarts Express on the day of departure.
In Meleny's seventh year of Hogwarts she rejoined Dumbledore's Army to resist Voldemort when he penetrated the castle walls. It was the scariest moment of her life. She knew some of the death eaters were teachers and getting caught frightened her. It was the only time in her life she hated the defense against the dark arts class (besides when Umbridge taught in her fifth year) or Muggle Studies because it was all about how purebloods were superior and the like. She had muggleborn friends in the school who were being hunted by the muggleborn registration committee. Everyday she feared for the life of her friends Cadence and Carlow McKenna who she had known since her first year. Carlow was the oldest and in Ravenclaw and Cadence was in her year but a Hufflepuff. The two of them spent that year in hiding.
When the war was over and Meleny had finally graduated she first started working at the ministry as an auror because she didn't want another Voldemort coming to power and she wanted to protect those she loved. Eventually Meleny grew fed up with the ministry's methods of trying to protect people by pretty much invading people's privacy so she resigned and joined the rebellion she kept hearing about while also working a new job as a Healer at st mungos hospital where she reconncted with her muggleborn friends from Hogwarts who spent her seventh year in hiding.
