Mummy Melcon isn’t entirely sure how she got here. She could have sworn she was on her way to the Scales of Ma’at, but she must have taken a wrong turn somewhere past Albuquerque, and wandered into entirely the wrong afterlife. Oh well! Nothing for it now but to keep plugging along.
 
  
−
Mummy has a tendency to get lost, you see. She does so love to travel, but her sense of direction isn’t the best, and she has an unfortunate penchant for… mishaps. It’s due to these wandering ways that she is perhaps the world’s only multi-mummy, having been mummified no less than four times, each time in a different way. Leaving her cozy tomb in Egypt behind, she’s tumbled down a salt mine in Iran, stumbled into a peat bog in the United Kingdom (where she learned the fine art of Afternoon Tea), and cooled her heels on a Peruvian mountaintop. And that’s only the times she can remember off the top of her head!
+
==Player History==
 +
Mummy Melcon is an elder Hijabi and Arab Actress who was born in Alexandria, Egypt before moving to Cairo, Egypt in pursuit of her acting career. Prior to her Blaseball career, she has acted in various movies about Blaseball. She visited Hades for research, film promotion, and The Hades Film Festival. There she met Yazmin Mason, who was a fan of hers.
 +
 
 +
On {{BetaSeason|7}} Day 71, Melcon was in the stands wearing a bootleg “Hade Tigger” jersey which is also part of her film costume. That is when she witnessed Yazmin's incineration, along with the state of the team following it, Melcon hopped the railing onto the field and took up Yazmin’s pitching. Mummy was not a trained pitcher and had a shaky start to her career.
 +
 
 +
Melcon speaks Egyptian Arabic natively, Egyptian Sign Language (ESL), English and French. Melcon speaks with a low raspy voice like the pages of her books because she binge drinks coffee. As a hobbyist historian, Melcon has a fondness for reading, collecting, and preserving old books. Coming up near the birthplace of coffee, Mummy also has a personal interest in ethically sourced coffee. As an avid drinker herself, she sees it as a great principle of hers to ensure her supply doesn’t come from questionable sourcing practices.
 +
 
 +
Melcon is also a multidisciplinary scholar. She majored in linguistics and sociology. She originally majored in one, but her studies intersected with the other. Later, after completing her sociology doctorate, Melcon ended up entering the other field. Her scholarly background is what also led to her interest in Hades as a rich source of primary sources for the events of the past millennia, and for immortals who have insight on Hellenic and other dead languages.
 +
 
 +
Melcon is not particularly close with anyone on the team due to being busy with studies, acting career, and her business of promoting and sourcing ethical coffee. Being older and very approachable, many of the younger Tigers go to her for insight.
 +
 
 +
==Umpire Incident in Season 13==
 +
Prior to {{BetaSeason|13}}, Melcon had witnessed [[Raúl Leal]] defend his teammate from a [[Rogue Umpire|rogue umpire]] incineration. Since then, Melcon had been working on a hypothesis on how it occurred, and how it could be replicated without the [[Iffey Jr.|Iffy Jr]].
 +
 
 +
On the first day of Season 13, Melcon took the mound and pitched as she normally did throughout the game. At the bottom of the 7th inning, Melcon's studies came into play as the eclipse glimpsed, and an umpire’s eyes turned white, and turned to face Melcon. She remained calm and collected, as she carefully observed their movements. At that moment, Melcon had an epiphany. There is no proper documentation on what exactly transpired, but it’s said that since that day, the technique is safeguarded and preserved amongst the Hades Tigers.
  
−
It’s still a mystery how she found her way to Hades, much less through the labyrinthine tunnels of the Sixth Circle Stadium; but somehow, she ended up in the stands on that fateful day. When she saw that poor, lovely deer lady incinerated before her eyes, and how sad those fine people in the tiger shirts looked, Mummy knew she had to act. She marched down to the Hades dugout and immediately put the kettle on for tea, hoping to raise their spirits— but instead found herself suddenly pressed into service on the pitcher’s mound.
+
==Trivia==
  
−
Unfortunately, Mummy didn’t quite take naturally to blaseball. After millennia of wandering the earth and learning such splorts as cluju, klemari, and plok-ta-plok, she simply can’t keep all the rules and techniques straight in her head anymore. But she’s game to give the splort her best effort; and even while she struggles to contribute from the mound, she truly excels in the locker room and the dugout, where she nourishes her teammates’ bodies and souls by cooking up cuisine from around the world; always served with a smile, a hug, and a cup of warm, soothing tea.*

*She uses her notoriety as an actress and a blaseball player to promote local coffee growers and ethical coffee sourcing. She has had a TV show spotlighting coffee growers.
