History:
Merida was the first child of four, her three younger brothers being triplets which she doted on. As she grew up, Merida railed against her mother's wishes for her to be a 'proper young lady' and was much closer to her father, who indulged her love of fighting and archery. One day her mother invited the other three chiefs and their heirs to their kingdom in order for their sons to compete in a tournament to win Merida's hand. The stunt Merida pulled at the tournament proved to be the final straw in her tense relationship with her mother. Following a huge fallout, Merida sought a way to change her fate resulting in her mother being turned into a bear. The two oddly became closer than ever when they realised they needed each other to survive in the wilderness, both saving one another.
When Maleficent came to their universe, Merida put up a valiant fight alongside her father but was forced to retreat into the forest when she was severely injured by one of Maleficent's minions that managed to take her by surprise. When she returned to her home, she found a scene of utter carnage and devastation. Soon after, Merida was pulled into the Multiverse wide effort to stop the alliance.
