Personality
Mera has an enthusiastic, do-things-in-one-shot type of personality. She does things at her own pace and has a tendency to pull others into keeping up with her. She's fond of teasing her seniors, but she's also weak to their comebacks.
She's the adventurous type who is fond of collaborations and likes to try a lot of things, but she also has a fickle side to her where she quickly gets bored of something she picked up and abandons it. Being aware of this quirk of hers, she lives by the saying "Don't chase those who leave, and don't reject those who show up."
Appearance
Mera is a phoenix girl who has long, bright orange hair that ends in flared red tips. Her eyes have fiery orange irises. She has a long and feathery, reddish-orange phoenix's tail.
On her original design, she wears a red and white double flower hair accessory on the left side of her hair, and on her body she wears a red and white inspired dress. It has a kimono-style collar but leaves her shoulders exposed. The dress is mainly white outside and red beneath on the upper half, with red stitching, and it's red on the midsection up to her skirt, which has a brown flower-patterned layer underneath. Her arms are covered by long white sleeves with a flowing red fabric layer beneath. There's a big white and brown ribbon adorning her waist. On her legs are a pair of thigh-high knee socks with red stitching on top, and a pair of red platform on her feet.
