Rise from the cold depths below and brave the waves above, across an azure expanse basked in starlight's gleam. Submerse into the deep marine with **Yareli**, the nymphean sailor. Fluid as tidal ebb and flow, surf swiftly and ripple through her foes, as slender teardrops cascade into a sanguine ocean. Yareli and Merulina rode into battle on Update 30.5 (2021-07-06).

บทความหลัก: The Waverider

Yareli was the savior of children who were enslaved by a Grineer named **Vulgran**. The rescue inspired the children to rise up against their slaver before she blasted him into the sky. Her tale is passed down through a comic Graphica dubbed **Waverider #1**.

Yareli also served as the originator of K-Driving and inspired the Ventkids to follow in her footsteps.

## Trivia

* Yareli is the 47th unique Warframe to be released.
* Yareli was first revealed in Devstream 154. Her in-game model, Abilities, and Signature bubble-gun Secondary Weapon were showcased in Devstream 155.
* Yareli, along with Volt/Prime, Chroma/Prime, Saryn/Prime, Ivara/Prime, Baruuk, and Wisp possesses the highest energy pool of all Warframes in the game: 200 at rank 0 and 300 at rank 30.
	+ This can be increased to 600 with a maxed Flow, 850 with Primed Flow, and 880 with Primed Flow and Endurance Drift.
* Yareli was chosen from community artist *Matias Tapia'*s Warframe concepts art portfolio, specifically the Magical Girl Warframe Series.
* The comic book cover for Waverider #1 was commissioned art created by artist *ChickenDrawsDogs*.
* Yareli is a female given name of Native American origin meaning "water lady; small butterfly".
	+ She is the first Warframe whose name starts with the letter Y.
* Yareli's hoverboard Merulina's name is likely derived from *Merulina*, a genus of stony corals in the family *Merulinidae*.
	+ Merulina, as a fictional creature in the Warframe universe, appears to be an amphibious aquatic species. It seems to carry a supply of seawater within its translucent membranous cavity, which could be speculated to provide the oxygen for its gills if it breathes.
	+ It is unclear if the liquid propulsion beneath Merulina necessary for its land-based locomotion is provided by Yareli or the creature itself.
* Yareli's Idle Animations emphasize her petite and cutesy demeanor, often making youthful gestures popular with children. She enjoys giggling, flashing victory hand-signs, pointing finger guns, forming heart-shaped water projections, and hugging or sitting on Merulina while playing with water by kicking her feet
	+ As the patron saint of the Ventkids, Yareli is idolized by the orphans for her heroic deeds and gave them the inspiration to start K-Driving.
	+ When you enter the Vents with Yareli the Ventkids will have a few lines of special greetings rotations for the player.
* When compared to her concept art, Yareli's in-game model has slight alterations:
	+ The inner layer of the side clothes became protruding garments on the back of her dress, resembling the shape of a fish's tail fin.
	+ Small frills were added above the back of her ankles.
	+ Her feet were reshaped from ballet shoes to platform wedge heels.
* Yareli and Hydroid's familial relations are up for interpretation, as [DE]Pablo playfully denied that she was the daughter, while [DE]Rebecca viewed them more as siblings.
* Yareli is the first Warframe to be able to access and ride a variant of the K-Drive in standard Star Chart Tile Sets.
