Appearance
Merun is a small, golden-yellow fairy that glows softly. She wears a small. yellow one piece dress and a pointy yellow hat atop her long blonde hair that seems to possess a circular object at the end of the strands.

Personality
Merun is easily excited, easily frightened and curious of the world around her. Her actions are similar to those of a small child. She can barely speak long sentences but is still able to hold up a conversation. Merun can tire easily and prefers to sleep on those that she likes, Asuka for example. Even so she is an extremely friendly little fairy that adores people easily. However as stated, she is like a child and will mimic the actions of those around her.

Background
Merun is a friend of the 130 child spirits, who died in Hamelin during the rampage of the Black Death plague in 14th Century Europe, and represents the alternate possibility. Called "The 131st Member" by the other spirits, she is also a previous member of Rattenfanger.

Volume 2
She made her first debut in Episode 6 in the festival, where she was discovered by Asuka, but she got frightened and ran away, to which Asuka pursued her. Shortly afterwards, they became friends and toured the gallery to enjoy the exquisite crafted pieces on display.

Merun was given to Asuka as thanks for her assistance rendered to the 130 children of Hamlin, and the faerie served as a legacy to the existence of the [Rattenfanger] community.
