The Melody (メロディー, Merodī) is one of the prophesied children of Izanami to bring "Paradise" to the spiritual and physical world. His role within Red Sun is the "source of melody", responsible for the regulation of the sins and hostilities that infect the world.
Personality[]

The Punisher, in his more casual look.
The Melody is a naturally optimistic, social, and relatively mirthful. His earnest personality is quite charismatic to other people and is the primary trait that separates him from the rest of Red Sun. He has a habit of playing around with and teasing his "siblings", particularly the Punisher much to her chagrin. Both the Melody and the Punisher seem to have a brother-sister relationship towards each other, despite their extremely opposite natures. He is the only exception that she allows herself to feel any positive emotion towards. He has a habit of getting physical and animated in his display of interaction towards people, and it is not uncommon for him to greet people with a hug or a kiss on the cheek. He holds "not a single violent bone" in his body, and is considered a purely good soul to the end; something that is not within the other Children.
History[]
The existence of the Melody spans back to the beginning of early Japan by Izanami-no-Mikoto and Izanagi-no-Mikoto. After giving birth to the incarnation of fire Kagu-Tsuchi, Izanami died and was sent to the realm of the dead. Izanagi was so enraged and grieved by her demise that he killed Kagu-Tsuchi. Although Izanami was in the world of the dead, she could feel the newborn's death as if it were her own. At that given moment, she felt grief, rage, and betrayal at Izanagi for taking the innocent life. Her feelings caused her to become disillusioned with the fate of humanity and consume the fruit of the underworld. Upon consumption, it is said that her flesh was ripped from her body and formed into separate entities, the Melody being born as Heiwa (平和, Peace).
