AboutEdit

Priestess Meden is the spiritual leader of the Patapons. She is the chosen link between the tribe and their Almighty.

She appears in Patapolis and gives information to the player, often hinting towards the next mission or the backstory of the game. She is often kidnapped by Zigotons or Karmens and the Patapons must save Meden in Meden Kidnapped (Patapon) or Rescue Meden (Patapon 2). She also appeared in the Epilogues of the games. In Patapon, she appeared when the boat was being built to cross the sea. She also appeared in the Epilogue of the second game when the bridge was being created.

Appearance and AttributesEdit

Meden seems to be a Mahopon with no shoes or maybe a very thin shoe and a staff and has a few physical differences that set her apart from other Patapons. Her limbs are slightly longer than most Patapons in proportion to her body, giving her a more feminine appearance. She wears an elaborate headdress of five coloured feathers instead of a cap or helm, and what could be a green dress, skirt, or cape. Star-shaped earring frames are on each side of her "face", and a ceremonial staff of some sort is in her hand. Despite being the High Priestess of the Patapon tribe, she still manages to be either humorous or foolish during certain points in the plot. She brags several times throughout both games, and isn't as wise as she would appear to be, thus indicating that she is either a young adult or just plain immature. She sometimes expresses doubt in the prophecy of Earthend (Once saying that she wonders if Earthend is really worth the heavy losses the Patapons are sustaining).

Meden is wise, calm and kind. She appears to be the only one to be able to talk to the Mighty Patapon (apart from Hatapon and, occasionally, General Gong). She appears to have no special powers, other than talking to the

Mighty Patapon, informing him/her of special info and able to read special ink on invisible maps. However, she may have some sort of levitation ability, as seen when she exits a cart.

In Patapon 3, she is petrified by the Seven Archfiends. But in the end of the game, she, alongside the entire Patapon tribe, comes back to life if you pick the correct choice. Early in the game, you will unlock "Meden Mart". It sells items, armor, and weapons.

TriviaEdit

In the instruction manual, she's called he and not she.
Meden is petrified throught the story in Patapon 3 and is returned to normal if the ending "Offer my soul and save the Patapons" is chosen after beating the last mission.
In Patapon and Patapon 2, Meden normally stands between the Mater Tree and the Altar (Inventory). However, immediately after a storyline mission is completed, she will instead stand among the celebrating Patapons. This doesn't affect her dialogue in any way, however.
The Zigotons, Patapons and Akumapons all have female leaders such as Queen Kharma, Meden and Black Hoshipon.
In the second game, it is hinted that Meden is actually way older than she looks, surprising her assistant.
In the Patapon 3 intro, she can collect Ka-ching.
