### Personality

Melissa is very caring and has a motherly personality. She works hard to make her fellow Magis happy and is a very good cook, usually being the one who cooks the meals for them, and starting in "The End of the Princess," she blames herself every time a Magi dies due to her not being able to battle on land due to her having a mermaid tail, and starts to become *extremely* overprotective of the other Magis, such as when she tries to stop the others from fighting some Vertexes at all and they run away in frustration until she apologizes and they make up. She is also very selfless but can also be reckless as shown when she sacrifices herself to protect Kylie from a witch's mind-controlled Remoraid.

### Relationships

* **Katy Livonne**: One of her fellow Magis, who she respects as the leader despite her being younger than her. However, after "The End of the Princess," she starts to become extremely overprotective of her and tries to ban her and the others from battling ever again out of concern for their safety and locks them in the orphanage, causing her to snap, run away in frustration, and causing Melissa to witch out and become a giant Beedrill witch who has the power to restrain and cage somecreature..... and who also has a magic restraint tool belt and tries (but fails) to put her in *a magic straitjacket*. They reconcile after she is purified, however, once she realizes that she went too far and that they all have a duty as Chosen Ones.

### Etymology

The kanji for her Japanese surname, Hachiya, mean "bee, hornet, wasp" and "valley," while her Japanese name "Hachimitsu" is the Japanese word for "honey."

## Magical Abilities

While she normally chooses not to transform unless the enemies attack near a body of water, as a magical girl, Melissa possesses enhanced physical abilities such as speed, strength, agility, invulnerability to physical damage, and the ability to swim and breathe underwater without drowning. Her magic aura is fluorescent yellow in color.

(TBA)

## Magical Warrior

Melissa is the Warrior of Altruism. She is a Bug/Poison Elemental who represents the Element of Generosity. Her theme color is yellow with a sub of black, and currently, her only known weapons are a honey dipper that can be flipped open to reveal a sharp stinger and a crossbow-like weapon resembling the Healing Good Arrow from *Healin' Good Pretty Cure*.

## Pokémon

* **Goldie** - A Vespiquen she owns, who is her partner Pokémon.
* **Dhalia** - A Beedrill she owns.

* **Harmony Gem** (*is stored in the Magical Warrior System app when unused)*

## Trivia

* She was partly inspired by Omori Yuko from *Happiness Charge Pretty Cure*.
* She dies late in *Katy Magica* compared to most of the other Magis - by the time of her death, only Katy, Sky, Kylie, and Evelyn II (and not counting the supporting Magis) remain.
	+ In the English dub, her Bullet Seed-ridden body is edited to remove the blood.

* She is confirmed to have been born in Unova, and it is also confirmed she received Goldie and Dhalia as a birthday gift when she turned 10.
* Much like Julia and Elizabeth, her Japanese name is alliterative and repeats the same first word (**Hachi**ya **Hachi**mitsu, much like **Yume**no **Yume**ko and **Niji**no **Niji**ko) for both her surname and given name, making it easier for made-up fans in Japan to remember.
* Her witch form has a magic toolbelt that can produce practically any restraint device imaginable on command, such as when she takes out a carseat with a harness and tries to put Syren in it.
