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 her 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.

She is also an immortal being, able to live for centuries, and survive wounds that would be fatal to most biological entities, she is also capable of turning off her pain receptors.{{book ref|mb6|24}} She is capable of reforming her body to unlock simple locks.{{book ref|bom|29}} And like all Kandra she can make her flesh go transparent in order to reveal her True Body.

She has various True Bodies made out of various materials, such as emerald and [[aluminum]]. She sometimes uses ones with hidden weapons, such as swords in her arms.{{book ref|mb6|16}} She can also store guns in her body, which she can pull out at will. Unlike most kandra, she doesn't necessarily follow the First Contract, and thus has little qualms about killing.
