Appearance and personality[edit]
Story arc[edit]
Melisse is one of Jan's subordinates along with Lactis, Erich, Mikhail and the combat support robot Bugs. She assisted him during his investigation of Voyager. Melisse is ambitious, and leads an operation to try and retrieve some kidnapped Goodwill Ambassadors from Voyager without getting orders from Jan first. She had hoped to be promoted, as Jan had been at her age. In part due to her inexperience, the operation does not go well with multiple police officers being killed. Melisse gets emotional over the event, calling Voyager the worst enemy mankind has ever known.
Melisse gets along well with her colleagues. She and Mikhail tease each other at times. He is romantically interested in her, but she does not have mutual feelings for him, looking for someone who is more like Jan. She is quite upset by his eventual death. In an attempt to find more leads for their investigation, Melisse proposes that they get in touch with the anti-U.M.N. organization Veritas, which Jan permits. Melissa is eventually arrested along with Jan and the others, being charged for her actions during the Goodwill Ambassador rescue and her communication with Veritas.
Melisse is present for the final confrontation with Voyager and witnesses Jan's suicide. She survives the incident but leaves the Federation Police. She initially joins up with Veritas, but then founds her own anti-U.M.N. organization Scientia.
