Who is Maelle in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33?

As a resident of the fractured city of Lumiere, Maelle was orphaned at 3 years old. This caused her to have a rocky upbringing, making her cautious of trusting and establishing close relationships with others. Still, she has managed to find some solace under the wing of her adoptive brother Gustave, who is also the main protagonist of the game.

Now, with her foster sibling setting out on the latest Expedition to stop the Paintress from erasing the residents of the city, she steps forward to join the fight despite knowing the risks. She is also one of the youngest team members at just 16 years old. This means she has a lot of time before it's her turn to be erased by the Paintress.

Despite Gustave's reassurances that she should stay back and live a good life in Lumiere, she would rather face danger and die trying than spend nine years anticipating inevitable doom. After all, the city was never a real home for her, and as such, she aims to set out to prove her worth and stop the Paintress from painting more despair, misery, and death.
