Melissa Elise Morrow

Melissa Elise Morrow is the newest member of the Amphibian Army. She joined after coming into contact with them through her position as the lead investigator on the Black Rose Case, the Federal United Nations' official investigation into the Army. The position was entrusted to her by Marcus Drake, the F.U.N.'s Director, who listed her excellent investigative skills, former military training, and resistance to outside influneces, as reasons. Ironically the last reason also ended up contributing to her betrayal of Drake.

Appearance
Melissa is a short stocky caucasian woman with long black hair, which she always ties into a ponytail, and pitch black eyes. She usually walks around in a black suit with white blouse and black tie, although she as occasionally been seen wearing either a long matt blue wintercoat or a red blouse with a long orange skirt ornamented with yellow and green flowers.

She sports her tattoo of the Army's insignia below the right knee.

Personality
As an excellent investigator and former military Melissa was strong-willed and capable of keeping her calm in almost any situation she was put in, while on Earth. This contributed to her calculated nature, never letting the situation at hand influence her rational decision making. Once she joined the Amphibian Army and left her home planet, her worldview was thrown into complete disarray. The confidence of the former F.U.N. detective was completely shattered and her calm demeanor was turned on its head. Morrow started becoming increasingly unsure of herself, questioning her every move in an enviornment she was unfamiliar with. Her lack of experience with the world outside of Earth made her realise that she had seen little to nothing of what life could throw at a person.

During her time in the Amphibian Army the former F.U.N. agent has formed close friendships with a few of her comrades. Some of the most notable are Morel, whom she works alongside with most of the time, Jaquline White, who also had a background in the F.U.N., as well as Rin Nakamura, whom she formed a bond with, after having witnessing her torture.

History
Melissa was born as an only child in Beaver Creek, Canada, close to the Alaskan-Canadian border. At the age of six she and her parents moved to Seattle, USA, where her mother and father took jobs as private investigators. Two years later a serial killer by the name of Milo Philips, better known as The Nightfall Slayer, whom was put behind bars by her parents, broke out of prison and murdered her parents. That was the day she decided to follow in her parents footsteps, and put The Nightfall Slayer back behind bars.

She went on to graduate with a PhD in criminology, at the University of Havard, at the age of only 20 years. While still a student she, single-handedly, found the killer of her parents and forwarded her information to the police, succeeding in her goal to put him behind bars. Six months after graduating she became an American citizen and enrolled in the US Military. She served four years in the military, before being recruited by Marcus Drake for the F.U.N.'s field investigation unit. She then quickly rose through the ranks in the F.U.N.. First being promoted to lead investigator of a few smaller cases, before becoming the lead investigator of the Black Eagle and Tech Hunters cases, two of the highest profile cases on the F.U.N.'s official records. After she was put at the head of those respective cases, she quickly brought rapid successes to both of them. Leading to the incarceration of multiple key figures involved with both cases. Drake, seeing her accomplishments, then decided to give her access to the top secret section of F.U.N. cases, putting her in charge of the Leprechaun Cabal and Heaven's Invasion cases. Two more cases in which she outdid her predecessors, by being able to put involved people behind bars and acquiring large amounts of information, which no one had managed before her.

All of her successes led Drake to putting her in charge of the F.U.N.'s Investgation Branch B and the investigation and capture of the Amphibian Army, the case codenamed Black Rose. Morrow even managed something few others did by capturing Kakashi Shanks, Obito Hisagi, and Rin Nakamura. But she was outraged when she discovered what Drake planned to do with the prisoners. He wanted Morrow to help torture and question them for information and then excecute them as soon as possible, due to the prisoners being a security risk. While she initially begrudgingly accepted, Melissa changed her mind after seeing what Drake's men had done to the three members of the Army, without getting any information. Deciding to nurse their wounds to the best of her ability and comfort them by talking to them while they were locked in solitary confinement. These talks allowed her to get a better understanding for the Army as a whole, and while she never freed Kakashi, Obito, and Rin, she decided to go with them once the Amphibian Army mounted their rescue mission.

In the aftermath of her betrayal she supplied crucial information to the Amphibian Army, that allowed them to dismantle a part the field investigation unit and gain access to a lot of valuable data dealing a powerful blow to the F.U.N. as a whole. During this period Drake tried to convince her to switch allegiances back to the F.U.N., but she refused due to her stubbornness, rather deciding to stay with the Amphibian Army and being branded a traitor.

After having passed her trial period in the Army and being vigoursly screened for any signs that she might be Drake's spy, she was officially inducted into the Army by recieving her tattoo of the Black Rose below her right knee.
