Melina has a very calm demeanor. She's quiet and laid-back, and doesn't let anything like anger or irritation affects her. While most people would easily get annoyed when provoked, she remains unperturbed. Because of this, she is very clear minded in situations where others wouldn't be, and her judgment rarely gets clouded. Her patience is something that hardly wears thin. While it didn't start out that way, Melina slowly learned to wait for things to happen, rather than rant about how slow something is. That isn't to say that she won't fight for what she wants, but she knows she won't get anything immediately. Her patience makes her very good at planning and problem solving, and working towards her goals. She's also very quiet, and doesn't like speaking unless it's needed. She doesn't like much attention either, choosing to just keep to herself.
She wasn't born with her natural calmness. No, it's something she's perfected over time. She has a very hot temper lying dormant underneath that, when prodded enough, can come lashing out. She finds it best to stay as calm as she can to keep her temper in check. She can get impulsive when she gets angry. Thankfully, her rage has rarely ever shown itself, as she's kept herself in check.
Melina, over the years, has turned into a cynical person. It’s very well due to the world she was raised in, the world of demons and hunters. She’s spent her whole life learning how to survive and kill demons, and has experienced a lot. Because of that, she chooses to see the bad in people before she even looks at the good. She sometimes detaches herself from others, and questions everyone's motives. She thinks everyone is selfish and is driven by their individual desires.
She grew up as an independent person, never choosing to rely on anyone for anything. Being babied or underestimated is something she loathes. She makes sure people know that she isn't someone to be protected; she can take care of herself. Her independent nature becomes plain in the thing she does, with no thought of ever becoming dependent on anyone.
Melina's always guarded towards others. Her emotions are something she rarely discusses. She feels that talking about her feelings and telling others is a sign of weakness, and she doesn't like to trouble others with that kind of stuff. She would much rather let someone else talk to her about something. Trust is something that's very hard to earn with her. If you ever give her reason to, she will treasure you as a friend. She hates feeling of being let down, and it's easier just to never trust anyone.
Melina doesn't show her affection as easily as others, but is still compassionate towards her friends and the people around her. They might not notice it, but it's in the little things she does. It's actually quite rare for her to be open with affection, because it leaves her feeling open and vulnerable, something she hates doing. She knows showing you care can leave you hurt, so she hides it instead.
She's quite intelligent in all academic subjects, Biology being her favorite. Her calculating mind can also find the best solution to problematic situations, which is why she's unbeatable at chess. When she is faced with a problem or decision, she always thinks very carefully before taking action.
