Overall Personality: Meleny is a very sweet and helpful person. She doesn't have a mean bone in her body and is always willing to help people if they ask for it. She's quite pleasant to be around once you get to know her. Meleny is an even tempered person but even she has bad moods sometimes. She rarely raises her voice at people and would rather calmly and logically solve a problem than rush right into a duel. Otherwise she is very calm and her usual friendly self. She can also be a bit overprotective. Another thing about Meleny is that she is fiercely loyal. Once she picks a side in something she stays loyal to that side forever. Betrayal and back stabbing is one thing she can't stand.
Meleny is emotional and sometimes isn't afraid to show she's scared, or in pain but when met with an enemy she'll try to decieve them and cover up her weaknesses which includes trying to hide the scar underneath her right eye which is the only one visible. The others are on her body elsewhere and can only be seen when she's either getting dressed or undressing. Usually she's in control of her emotions and knows when and when not to show them but when she's scared or under stress the chain binding her emotions snaps and she becomes a total wreck.
Meleny is considerate and helpful. She has always been thought of as a mother figure to the younger students. She protects them from danger. She's also intelligent. As an older Hogwarts student, she'd help the younger students with their homework in subjects they were having trouble in. She may not be brave but she's overprotective and a bit of a martyr. She values everyone else's lives over her own. She would risk her life if it came down to it. When lives are at stake she doesn't care about getting in trouble but when it isn't absolutely necessary she avoids getting in trouble as much as possible.

Overall History: When Christina Kensington found out she was pregnant the doctor told her she was carrying twins. Along with Meleny inside the womb was another baby that would grow up to be the second person to make Meleny's life miserable. This was her twin sister Jezebel and she would eventually become Meleny's worst nightmare. Her father had named her and after Jezebel was born Meleny's life became a living hell. The last thing she needed in her life was someone else to degrade and put her down as if her father hadn't already done enough of that. The two of them were constantly at each other's throats. When she was younger, Jezebel just started out as bullying Meleny like the annoying bully at the school yard because she is 10 minutes older than her and wanted to flaunt her seniority. Basically Jezebel has a holier than thou attitude and it got worse when she discovered the Death Eaters when she got older. She came out first and the reason why Meleny is often naive and too trusting of some people is because she was born second. Later on, Jezebel found enjoyment in physically and pyschologically abusing Meleny.Later on, Meleny would also prove herself a blood traitor by choosing the Order over the Death Eaters. Her mother is an auror and every night she would come home with horror stories about what Voldemort is up to and the wizarding criminals she's helped catch.
When they began attending Hogwarts her sister was sorted into Slytherin and that only esclated their sibling rivarly to a higher level. They competed against each other during Quidditch matches in their second and third year. She never misses the chance to call Meleny blood traitor or other insulting names because Meleny also has muggle leanings and likes to dress like one. She also defends them if she sees one being verbally tormented.
When Meleny got her letter from Hogwarts on her 11th birthday. Her mother was ecstatic and took her to diagon alley to get her things but not until her father had a word with her about the right kind of wizard folk to mingle with. She had also given her a pendant for her birthday. All her life she had been indoctrinated with pureblood superiority and to stay clear of muggle-borns and blood-traitors. Meleny ignored his lecture and left with her mother. As Meleny's hogwarts education progressed and Voldemort became more powerful, her father became suspicious when he found letters Meleny had been writing home to her mother discussing her life at Hogwarts. She had mentioned standing up for the underdog and intervening when a Slytherin called her friends the McKennas, a brother and sister from a muggle family, mudbloods and taking a course called Muggle Studies. It later dawned on her father that his own daughter was a blood traitor. That summer he beat her for betraying her heritage and not acting like a pureblood. That was where she got her first scar. After that, she ended up limping for a few days and a St Mungos healer had to come by to patch her up. She wasn't in that much bad shape to actually be sent to the hospital. She just spent a couple of days resting from her injuries.
Jezebel had heard about the letters when they returned home that summer and beat her very badly and she wasn't halfway recovered. Her father was still steaming so he helped and a few unforgivable curses were used on his part. Meleny returned for her fifth year with a black eye, bloodied, and a horrible pain in her ribs. She was sore for many weeks because she had been under the cruciatus curse too long. Madam Pomfrey nursed her back to health the minute she arrived at school so she didn't see the sorting ceremony that year. All that's left now is for her to recover from her injuries and see what fifth year has in store for her. She still can't do much and has a slight limp whenever she walks. She can never walk upright again because the first beating messed up her leg. The pain from the cruciatus curse lingers in intensity most times of the day. She also suffers from horrible nightmares due to these incidents.
The drama did not stop for Meleny in her sixth year. Over the summer she uncovered the brtual treatment of house elves like Hermione had in their fourth year. Her father and sister tortured them behind closed doors. They had the family house elf Norman locked in the cellar when a loud sound woke her up. Apparently he had been sent there for refusing to do a job.They locked him down there any time he slipped up and said something bad about Emery or Jezebel. When she found him he was badly wounded. Her father and sister had nearly killed him. They both knew Meleny would try to help him which is why they kept him away from her at all times. Norman had been tortured with the cruciatus curse like her and had been physically beaten. He was practically on the brink of death. A live-in healer named Adele had started tending to Norman.Meleny learned everything she ever wanted to know from her. It was at that moment she decided the job she wanted to do after she completed her seventh and final year after the upcoming term. However. tragedy struck when her father and sister found out Norman was moved and getting help. Adele had placed a charm on the sick room so only she, Meleny's mother, and Meleny could get in and out. Her sister and father couldn't. Trouble ensued when Jezebel used a spell her father taught her to break the spell. She attacked Meleny with help of her father and wounded the healer. The commotion brought Meleny's mother running. Her father turned his wand upon her and cast the killing curse just as Meleny yelled at her to get out of the way. Before Meleny could come up with a plan to rescue Norman she had to leave for her sixth year at Hogwarts. Earlier her aunt had heard about her sister's death so she arrived the next morning to escort Meleny to king's cross station and to plan a funeral with the other aurors at the ministry.
