Melody Pond

Melody Pond is a main protagonist in Mako Champions.

Personality & Appearance
Normally good-humored and somewhat silly, on the field of battle Melody was calm, logical, serious and task-oriented. She has long, dark-brown hair, and wears a a blue shirt with white sleeves, with some form of blue leggings/pants, almost never deviating from this color palette. She never leaves home without her staff, and rarely puts it down.

Post-Damion behavior
After Chrono Youtou's death, Melody became the primary wielder of his sword, whom she dubbed 'Damion' due to not wanting to keep calling him Mr. Demon Sword. After a while, his influence started to change her manner and personality, making her much more prone to violence and quick to anger than before. On the battlefield, despite her primary role as a healer, she has even displayed lack of concern for what happens to her allies unless assisting them directly helped Melody achieve a goal; needless to say, this behavior has gotten Avineesh nearly killed on several occasions.

History
When Melody was a toddler, she lived a relatively normal life with her parents. At the age of five, she began magic practice with Mister Smith, specializing in water magic and healing. A year after she began, Mister Smith made Melody's staff and gave it to her as a gift, which she had kept until it the shaft was destroyed in Pride Rock. Before the party left, Bonny gave Melody a new staff, which she still uses today.

Meeting the Crew
Before the tournament, the crew decided they would see a magic show for whatever reason. At the end, they noticed Melody sleeping at a table, and she decided to come along, for lack of a better thing to do.

Abilities
Melody is skilled in support and water magic, even being capable of the high-level healing spell Curaga, though her Mako reserves are not the most impressive, so her stamina is limited when casting too many spells. Offensively, her abilities are limited to weak water- or ice-based attacks, such as freezing an opponent's feet to the ground. Her staff is a necessity for casting her magic; without it, she can only cast basic healing spells.

Her sword skills are basic, however somehow since she acquired Damion she is capable of holding her own in combat. This is not to say that she could beat anyone with any sort of experience in sword fighting; her ability is entirely reliant on Damion's power.

Trivia
