Biography
"History may be recounted later as one likes, yet I choose to shine in the here and now."
She wants to shine bright, no matter how briefly! This well-to-do girl has legs of glass.
A sheltered young lady—ephemeral, gentle, and thoughtful. Despite her fragile, "glass" legs putting her at a disadvantage when running, she refuses to let cynicism keep her down. As a child, her frail body kept her from most recreation and social activities, so she finds community life at the academy to be quite the novel experience.

Appearance
Mejiro Ardan has long, light blue hair, styled in loose waves at the end. She wears a crown braid atop her head, and has blunt cut bangs, parted primarily to the right. On her ear, she wears a teal cuff, lined with golden trim, and attached to it is a pleated red ribbon. She has purple down turned eyes, showcasing her gentle demeanor.
She wears a black dress, adorned with white ruffles both along the neckline, and down the center of the dress, with a golden horseshoe with a circle in the center where the two pieces intersect. It is held up by two teal ruffled straps. Around her waist is a black sash with gold trim, tied at the center with a small red ribbon. The skirt of Ardan's dress is asymmetrical, the left half sporting a thigh-length black skirt with ruffles at the end, and the right side, a white underskirt with teal ruffles and stripes around the base. Around her tail is a light teal ribbon, cut into a scallop pattern at the ends. Despite the dress exposing her shoulders, her right sleeve is long, with a yellow tassel tied around her upper arm, and has a teal stripe down the center. This sleeve has a white ruffle at the end, along with a black glove underneath. Her left arm is bare, aside from a white glove tied with a thin golden ribbon. Both of her shoes consist of white boots with a black base, and teal ribbon tied up her leg. However, her left shoe is ankle-height, and her right shoe is knee-height.
