## Appearances

### **Total Drama Island**

In flashback scenes, Mel's hair is longer than usual. She has bunny ears whenever she doesn't have her bunny backpack, Roth. She wears a navy-blue cardigan over a white collared shirt with black buttons with a black bow tie with a spiked collar. While not visible, she wears a black leather skirt and sneakers. She has a bow on the back of her head.

## Personality

### **Total Drama Muerto Island**

Mel initially has a bubbly personality, walking around and making everyone smile and laugh. She introduces everyone to her backpack, Roth, who she can only hear. She cannot take spice, and she tends to stay with other people. She also starts to worry about her declining health conditions throughout the season, and started to worry her best friends. Speaking of best friends, she formed friendships mainly with Wendy and Jupiter. Towards the end of the season, she started to be feared by Isaac because of her casual supernatural, verbal outbursts. She gives everyone nicknames because of her poor memory, and barely calls anyone their actual name until towards the ends of the season.
