Meracle Chamlotte (メリクル・シャムロット, Merikuru Shamurotto?) is a character from Star Ocean: The Last Hope. A young and energetic Lesser Fellpool misplaced from her correct space and time, she is found by the party on the alternate Earth being held captive. She is variously referred to as an "alley cat" by Eleyna Farrence.

Birthplace: Planet Roak?
Birthday: March 16th, 2080 A.D.
A young girl who played an integral role in fighting the Grigori—a group of mysterious beings destroying the universe—in the 10s (S.D.).
Meracle was held at a military facility by alternate Earth soldiers as a test subject. It was there that she met the physicist Klaus and Edge who helped her escape.
Having grown up captivity, she knows nothing of where she is from. She is currently under the care of Lady Eleyna, who coincidentally shares the same name as Meracle's favorite character from a childhood picture book.

A young girl who played an integral role in the fight against the Grigori—a group of mysterious beings destroying the universe—in the 10s (S.D.).
She is extremely cautious around evildoers, or even just people she doesn't know, but to her friends she's a needy little critter who does more than her fair share of clinging.
A rascal with a healthy appetite, she often causes commotion in the ship by changing into a kitten to steal people's food.

Story[]

Presumably hailing from Roak, a very young Meracle was attracted by the smell of food inside a spaceship of unknown origins that landed on the planet. After she boarded it, the ship took off, inadvertently making her a stowaway. Much like Meracle's unclear timeline placement, any details of her interstellar journey are unknown. What is true is that the ship crash-landed on Earth in 1957 A.D. After the crash, she was apprehended and held captive in a military facility. There, her only confidant where she was held in was Klaus Bachtein, who was engaged in energy research at the time. Having grown up captivity, she knows nothing of where she is from.

In Meracle's ending, Meracle is living with Eleyna two years after the events of Nox Obscurus. At the start of her ending sequence, Meracle sneaks out of Eleyna's house and talks about how she is planning to run away, but Eleyna overhears and tries to convince Meracle to return. Meracle stubbornly shouts that nothing will stop her from running away, but then Eleyna finally gets Meracle to return by offering food she likes. While all this is happening, an artist is standing on top of a building in the distance, and at the end of the ending sequence, his painting is finished—the cover art for Meracle's favorite book, Eleyna and the Feline Gourmand.

Profile[]

Dynamic and always brimming with energy, Meracle is bright and amiable, though she hates being left alone and will try to raise people's spirits around her when they are down. Being of an animal-like nature and due to sharing cat-like qualities, she has an abnormally curious personality as well as much higher hearing and smelling senses. A food-loving, fun-loving catgirl, Meracles is constantly hungry and whenever she sees potential food or a reminiscent of it she yells "Yummy!". Also she pulls out a knife and fork with a bib and runs around waving them in the air. On Roak she is always after, in her mind edible, bunnies, and thinks that Sarah Jerand is a chicken, which she is often drooling about.

She seems to have a natural talent for sniffing out people with evil intentions. As a Lesser Fellpool, she has the unique power to shapeshift at will into a Siamese cat. Her favorite book is a picture book called Eleyna and the Feline Gourmand.

Gameplay[]

In Star Ocean: The Last Hope, Meracle is a martial artist who equips claws. With her high strength, critical rate, and powerful multi-hit moves, she is one of the game's most powerful characters. However, it takes relatively more skill to effectively link Meracle's abilities together. She is also responsible for the progression of the Crafting skill in Item Creation.

She is also a playable character in Star Ocean: Anamnesis, and has two variants: "Meracle" and "Youth Meracle". In her base variant, featured in the event Armaros of the Deep Descends, she is a knuckle user and Attacker; her Youth variant, featured in An Eternal Prison Unlocked, uses the same weapon type, but is a Healer instead.

Trivia[]

  • It is implied that Meracle returned to the right universe thanks to Edge and crew, but did not return to the right time. When the party first lands on Roak she makes note of something seeming different though she can't tell what. This is followed by her meeting the protagonist of her favorite book, Eleyna Farrence, plus its cover being created from her interactions with Eleyna.
    • Strangely, though, Anamnesis gives her date of birth as 2080 A.D., making her age (sixteen) congruent with the date The Last Hope takes place in. Although it may simply be a mistake, it could mean she is from an alternate Roak (just as the alternate Earth exists), where the book was published earlier than in the main timeline, or is a birthdate she simply adopted given her new permanent residence.
  • Meracle is likely based on Pericci from the first Star Ocean game. Pericci is a fellow energetic Lesser Fellpool who fights with claws as her weapon of choice, and picking up her Ocarina is required to recruit her.
