Meridien

Meridien, or “Mer” to her friends, was a blond woman wearing a mauve dress with yellow polka dots. She lived in the same universe as Delkin. She was fascinated by the magical, and always keen to get Delkin to be more open-minded about the nature of reality.

She was once proven blatantly right about the existence of travellers from parallel universes when Jenny Everywhere materialised right in front of her and Delkin. Soon thereafter, Jenny's appearance, as well as Del and Mer's, were accidentally transformed by Jenny's malfunctioning shifting device; a bemused Meridien now wore a sleeveless yellow T-shirt, had her hair up (tied with a red hairband), and appeared to have black eyes instead of pale blue.
