Melody

Melody is a 2021-introduced and all-around character. She is a sapphire and a student at Enchatria High. Melody, principally recognizable for her white hair, has a twin sister by the name of Penelope, who is principally recognizable for her black hair. Along with Scarlett, their best friend, sib from another crib, and leader all rolled up in one, the trio are some of the worst causers of trouble at the school. Despite giving Scarlett the reins under most circumstances, Melody has a crafty mind of her own and can operate solitarily or while instructing her sister. Though she and Penelope get along well, Melody often is insensitive to her needs and wellbeing.
==Portrayers==
Melody is rarely heard speaking, but she occasionally makes robot voice. In the English version of the cartoon, credit for this goes to America Young, who also voices Scarlett and Penelope. In Great Barrier Reef, both she & Penelope are voiced by Cindy Robinson.
==Character==
===Personality===
While Melody is prone to reliquish the role of criminal mastermind to Scarlett, she is just as well off without her. Melody has a penchant for pranks all of her own and is willing to take risks to execute them. Her sister and default partner-in-crime is not all that pleased with that, but Melody needs little effort to convince her to join in. Given her enthusiasm, Melody doesn't respond too well when a prank backfires, liking neither the consequences nor that the prank itself never reached its potential.
While Penelope is frustrated that she and Melody are seen as interchangeable, Melody is not at all bothered by it since the kind of people that think that are the ones that don't matter to them. In fact, she likes the extra edge of confusion being part of a set of twins gives her.
===Appearance===
Melody has a mirror theme going on with her sister in how they look and how they dress. Both have a grey skin or fur and white facial marking. They also have white stripes running over their legs and arms, but Melody has her stripes on her right arm and left leg, while Penelope has them on her left arm and right leg. Melody is more easily distinguished from her sister by her hair though, which is white, whereas Penelope's is black. In line with the white markings on their limbs, Melody has a black-and-white striped lock of hair hanging from her left side, which Penelope has hanging from her right side.
Melody and Penelope dress in similar outfits because it's easier for them. Like Scarlett, they have a biker look going for them, but the twins' choice of clothes reaches more for the feminine. The main colors they go for are white, black, crimson, and orange, with black and orange being more dominant in Melody, consisting of black, white-striped sleeveless shirt with a black, open-zippered, diamond-studded vest over it, one crimson and two black bracelets on the left arm, along with a crimson biker-styled glove, orange denim skirt, and black knee-high boots with multiple bows, including one on each side, and crimson wedges.
==Classic Monster==
Just like Katy Noir, Scarlett Ferris, Melody and Penelopee are sapphires. According to folklore, they are humans who transforms to human-like cats, panthers or tigers. Sapphires are similar to Sapphires, as Shappires are also known as "shape-shifters".
Shappires are not featured as often as Emerald are in popular culture, but a notable movie with Sapphires is Cat People directed by Val Lewton. It tells the story of a young woman, who believes herself to be a descendant of a race of people who turn into cats.
==Relationships==
===Family===
Melody is the twin sister of Penelope. They live in a good household, where their pranks are not approved of but generally not reported on either. Their mother dotes on them and has so far denied Penelope the possibility to throw away embarrassing photos from when she was a child and affected by hairballs because she thinks the photos are cute.
In her diary, Scarlett says that Melody and Penelope are "like [her] sisters". This sentiment is presumably shared by Melody.
===Friends===
Melody's best pals in life are Penelope and Scarlett.
===Pet===
Until some years ago, Melody and Penelope owned a male canary who would sing them awake every morning. However, Penelope developed an allergy to the bird, forcing the sisters to give him away. They still miss him.
===Romance===
Melody and Penelope went for the same werewolf when looking for a dance partner in "Fight On!", suggesting she has a similar taste in dates as her sister. Though Penelope hasn't been in romantic context since, Melody has caught the attention of Andy Tuffkowski, who gave her flowers in "Histeria". She appreciated that and expressed jealousy when Manny and Iris started dating.
