The Poor Melissa is a Scythe that can be wielded by Marluxia in Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days. It can be upgraded to the Poor Melissa+.
Design
The Poor Melissa has a curved, green handle with a small, pale gold section at its base and a flat, purple pommel. The front blade of the scythe curves downward slightly and has a circular section taken out of it near the shaft. The back blade is much shorter and curves upward slightly. The weapon’s whole blade is lilac-colored with purple edges. The base of its shaft is pale gold. This scythe and the Fickle Erica are nearly identical to each other, but have different color schemes.
Melissa is a small genus of flowers. The name of the genus means "honey bee" in Greek, because plants from the Melissa genus attract bees. "Poor" can have several meanings, including "pitiful", "of low quality", or "with little or no possessions".
Gameplay
When Marluxia has the Poor Melissa equipped, his ground combo will comprise of two forward slashes, a spinning of the scythe, and then a rounded slash. His aerial combo will comprise of an upward slash, finishing with Marluxia spinning in a twice in a circle with the Poor Melissa.
