'''MeLaan''' was a [[kandra]] of the Seventh Generation.{{ref|b|mb3|ars}}▼

Her willowy [[True Body]] was of wood and its form was unnatural and exaggerated as much of the True Bodies of that generation.{{cite}}▼

== Appearance and Personality ==
=== Pre Catacendre ===
▲
=== Post Catacendre ===
Melaan often takes the form of a very tall (several inches taller than the notably tall Waxillium) and very busty woman named [[Milan]]. This True Body is made of a green crystal. However, she also has several others, including one that is ostensibly designed for combat. The skeleton underneath is revealed to be made entirely of aluminum, with many useful implements hidden inside including a reinforced compartment for storage of the part of her that stores her consciousness, needles for stitching wounds, and a set of picks for opening locks. This metal body is very durable (A Feruchemist Brute punched her in the face and the hand essentially exploded).
Notably, her personality is much more free spirited than most Kandra, and she gets along very well with Wayne, engaging in belching contests on occasion. She is also more lax about following the First Contract than other Kandra, and is willing to kill humans if she has to.

== History ==
=== Pre Catacendre ===
MeLaan was the only kandra raised by [[TenSoon]]
MeLaan
When TenSoon
After [[KanPaar]] revolts against the first generation and imprisons [[Sazed]], [[TenSoon]] returns to the [[Kandra Homeland]]. He finds [[Sazed]] has been taken prisoner with the help of MeLaan. MeLaan then fetches the keys to release the first generation, as well as bones for them to inhabit.{{book ref|mb3|78}}
=== Post Catacendre ===
She
MeLaan once again meets Wax at [[Lady ZoBell's party]]. She introduces herself as Milan, a slight mispronunciation of her real name. After seeming to flirt with Wax, she walks away.
▲MeLaan was the only kandra [[TenSoon]] had raised.{{ref|b|mb2|c|20}} She had a hero-worship crush on him, inspired by his gruffness and his adventurousness, which made TenSoon somewhat uncomfortable.{{annotation ref|mb3|chapter=10}}
After the party, she saves Wax from the [[Set]] agents who had ambushed him. She reveals that she is a kandra sent by [[Harmony]] to help him.
▲MeLaan attended TenSoon's judgement trial. After he is publicly imprisoned, she approached him and offered to help him escape. She also offered to retrieve the [[Blessing of Potency]] he took from [[OreSeur]]. She believed his claim that [[Vin]] was the [[Lord Ruler|Lord Ruler's]] heir, and that the kandra's [[First Contract]] was with her. She took the changes in the outside world–-the [[mist]]s that remain during the day and constant [[ash]]fall-–as signs and proof.
Later, she meets Wax, [[Wayne]], and [[Marasi]] at a tavern. She goes on to help them on their quest to defeat [[Bleeder]].
▲When TenSoon refused to rebel against the First and Second Generations, she accused him of abandoning them. She was present at his sentencing, when he escaped.
