Melusine is a water-elemental Eidolon from Final Fantasy Dimensions II. Her signet, equitable by Jornee, can be obtained as a reward for completing the "Immortal Consequences" main quest in Chapter 3-2 of the Crystal of Time arc.
Melusine's signet provides Jornee with high HP and magic stats. The Tri-Magic abilities are useful spells that deal multi-hitting damage to a single enemy and deal heavy damage to enemies weak to the fire, water, or wind elements.
Should the player obtain the first Blue Gem II in Chapter 3-2, they can take advantage of Mesuline's unlockable passive to lower Jornee's MP cost by 21%. As the player progresses through the later portions of the "Crystal of Time" and "Eureka" arc, this trait is outclassed as more signets become obtainable.
Profile[]
Melusine is based on the boss of the same name from Final Fantasy V. Her appearance is based on her in-game sprites, presented as a scantily clad woman entangled with serpentine dragons. Her Element Master summon attack is a reference to her ability to change her elemental proficiency during her boss encounter in Final Fantasy V.
Battle[]
Melusine's summon attack is Element Master, which deals moderate fire, water, wind, and earth-elemental damage in four individual attacks to all enemies. Summoning the Melusine costs 2 bars from the Summon Gauge.

Development[]
In the original free-to-play versions of the game, Melusine was a water-elemental summon that could only be obtained through the game's summon draw shop. However, she taught the Tetra Mist ability instead of the Tri-Magic ability. In the premium versions of the game, Melusine's Tetra Mist ability was removed from the game and replaced with the Tri-Magic ability.
In the premium version, Melusine's artwork is altered by adding a bikini top piece to cover her exposed breasts; in addition, her loincloth was extended to cover her hip area. In the original Japanese free-to-play versions, Melusine's breasts and hips were exposed.

Etymology[]
Melusine is a female spirit that inhabits or watches over water. Similar to a siren or mermaid, Melusine generally possesses one or more serpent or fish tails and a woman's torso and head. Sometimes she also has wings. Several noble houses took great pride in claiming to be descended from Melusine, notably the Plantagenet Dynasty of England.
