Melissa (メリッサ, Merissa) is a member of Red Rose's Crimson-Shell Division, thus allowing her to have a close connection with The Crimson Rose, Claudia, herself. Often times paired with fellow members within her division, Robin Wingfield and Les, Melissa is never regarded with the same type of respect as many of her colleagues due to her young and playful demeanor. Melissa had been in the field on a mission with Robin and Les when they'd gotten wind of Xeno's betrayal of Claudia and Red Rose, prompting her to immediately abandon her mission so that she could be by Claudia's side. In Wilhelm's absence, Melissa took to guarding Claudia alongside Robin through the night after Claudia had regained consciousness. However by the next morning, Melissa went to check on Les, only to learn that Ruskin was missing and reveal that Wilhelm is missing as well - encouraging Les to piece together that this was not mere coincidence. Melissa is later seen watching over Claudia when she slips into her coma following the turmoil within Red Rose's Crimson-Shell Division caused by The Black Roses.

Personality[]
Melissa is a bubbly and friendly young woman who is over enthusiastic and seems to get along with everyone in the Crimson-Shell Division rather well. She cares greatly about her friends as shown when Les was worried about Ruskin's disappearance and Claudia about Xeno's betrayal. She may appear airheaded but she does have well thoughout responses and puts her friends before everything else.
