Melog

== Info ==
Melog is a magical being who is from the alien planet Krytis. It is a companion of Catra. It is the sole survivor of an entire species, after an attack by Horde Prime after the First Ones were excavating magic from its planet. It imprinted on Catra later on after their encounter with the Best Friends Squad, finally joining The Rebellion. His debut is Shot in the Dark.
== Appearance ==
Melog is a burgundy-colored creature with blue energy emanating from its head along with its eyes that possess a similar shade with no pupils or iris. The energy emitted resembles a mane. Melog can shapeshift to other forms but retains the same colors. When it first appeared, Melog was in a humanoid form until it found Catra, with whom Melog adopted a cat-like form with a blue, transparent mane and tail as its current appearance.
Melog's mane and tail change shape to look like puffed up fur, and turn red along with eyes and mouth changing color when it is afraid, defensive, or angry since imprinting on Catra now reflects its real emotions. Melog reveals Catra's feelings for Adora by licking Adora's face affectionately.
== Powers ==
Shape-shifting: Melog is seemingly able to change into different forms, retaining its color scheme. This includes taking the appearance of another individual. It is not clear if this is genuine shapeshifting or illusion magic.
Illusion: Melog is able to conjure incredibly vivid illusions, being able to alter its entire surroundings.
Invisibility: Melog is able to turn itself and others invisible; as this is done via illusion magic, rather than bending light, anything it turns invisible is typically able to see anything else it has turned invisible.
Telekinesis: Melog has at least some telekinetic power, able to levitate an apple from the ground to a tree branch.
== Trivia ==
* "Melog" is golem spelled backwards.
* In the 1985 TV show, Catra had a pink lion named Clawdeen. Noelle tweeted that because Steven Universe had a very similar pink lion, "we made them more alien-like and merged them with Melog, a shapeshifting one-off monster from the original."
