Background

A student of the Red Winter Federal Academy, and a member of the "Knowledge Liberation Front" Library Committee.

Unlike Momiji, a fellow Knowledge Liberation Front member, Meru not only enjoys consuming literary works, but also creates them herself. Her pen name is "Meruri". Meru's namamono doujins are often inspired by the relationships between students who either seem to be on good terms or especially at odds with with each other. Her works are particularly known outside the school for featuring rivalries between Trinity and Gehenna students.

レッドウィンター連邦学園所属、図書委員会「知識解放戦線」の一人。

同じ知識解放戦線であるモミジと違って、二次創作を楽しむだけでなく自らも創作をしている。ハンドルネームは「メルリー」。仲が良さそうな、あるいは悪そうな生徒同士の関係にインスピレーションを受ける事が多く、所謂ナマモノ同人をしている。仇敵関係にあるトリニティ、ゲヘナの生徒もメルの「創作対象」であり、よく描かれるため、メルの悪名は学園外にも轟いている。
