Melanius

Melanius was a female badger resident of Salamandastron. She was the daughter of Russano the Wise and Lady Rosalaun, and the sister of Snowstripe, whom she was older than by three seasons, as well as a distant relative of Lady Merola and Sagaxus.

Melanius and the audience of other Salamandastron residents were told the story of the history of Salamandastron by her father, Russano.

It is assumed either she and/or her brother ruled Salamandastron in later years.
