* Full name: Meili Portroute * Alias: Meili the Mabeast User * Race: Human * Affiliation: Formerly Elsa Granhiert's partner, later Witch Cult → Anastasia's Camp → Roswaal's Mansion * Age: ~12-13 years old Meili looks like a young girl with short blue hair and blue eyes. She usually wears a hooded cloak and simple village clothes. Her most notable trait is her blank, doll-like expression. * She rarely shows strong emotion and talks in a flat, quiet voice. Looks harmless, but that's the point.Emotionally detached: Raised as an assassin, so she doesn't understand normal social bonds. Views killing as a job, not morally good or evil. * Childlike but deadly: Has the curiosity and speech patterns of a kid, but casually talks about murder. The dissonance is intentional - she was never taught right from wrong. * Obsessed with mabeasts: Treats mabeasts like family because they were the only ones who showed her affection.
Prefers their company to humans. * Clingy to Elsa: Elsa was her only real friend/older sister figure. After Elsa's death, Meili becomes lost and latches onto Subaru/Beatrice for guidance. * Slowly developing empathy: After Arc 4, she starts learning normal emotions by living at Roswaal's mansion with the kids.Divine Protection of Mabeast * Manipulation: Can communicate with and command mabeasts. It's not mind control - the mabeasts genuinely like her and obey her requests.
