THIS DESIGN IS NO LONGER IN USE, PLEASE REFER TO THIS POST FOR MELISSA’S CURRENT DESIGN

Now this one, expect her to pop up twice, haha-- this is because she's had two designs throughout her run that each have a part in Lunar Wind. This one here is how she looks Present-Day, onwards!

Past Design

Melissa is a hedgehog who had lived on another planet up until meeting Sonic and co., who she'd personally requested to help liberate her planet from the clutches of a local tyrant at the time after recognizing Sonic's own capabilities. 

She is most known for carrying a headstrong attitude, often being unafraid to speak her mind, and as a result can be more assertive than that of her peers. That being said, though, her tendency to be blunt can come off harsh or otherwise make her seem rather rude. Both Picky and Prickly, it's usually best not to provoke her.

Since having become estranged to her heroes' circle, however, Melissa's tone has gone from snappy to something much more moody-- wanting nothing more but to keep to herself and pick up her pieces of her own volition. While most of her former aspects are mostly kept in-check by herself, she still has a bitter, sharp tongue on her... 

...This shift in character is of course a concern for her former peers, and they wonder much how they can reach out to her, if at all.

Make no mistake, that first paragraph doesn't detail the Metarex Saga at ALL! It does happen in the continuity, but Melissa herself was met during a second space-faring adventure! Yes, you read right! How does this manage to cram itself into the timeline? Truth be told I don't know-- but it happened roughly three years prior to Lunar Wind (Present).

Barely Anyone's even seen Melissa in the recent two years, but maybe she'll swing around again... yeah?

(Eep, Before I forget-- Melissa is about half a head taller than Sonic!! )
