Mylène Haprèle

Character from Miraculous Ladybug by Thomas Astruc / ZAG

The most easily frightened girl in class who keeps choosing bravery anyway — Ivan's girlfriend and a quiet activist who gets scared but never stops showing up.

Mylène is afraid of almost everything — horror movies, loud noises, akuma attacks, confrontation. She was akumatized into Horrificator (a fear-feeding monster) because she was scared of a scene in a student film. Her fear is her defining vulnerability. But here's what the show does with that: it makes her brave anyway. She stands up for environmental causes. She protests pollution. She faces things that terrify her because they matter. Her courage isn't the absence of fear — it's the choice to act despite it. Her relationship with Ivan is built on mutual gentleness — the biggest kid and the most scared kid in class, protecting each other.

Appearance

Small teenage girl with multicolored dreadlocks held by a headband, olive skin, and wide hazel eyes that frequently look worried. Wears an olive-green tee with a flower graphic and a purple hoodie. Her smallness next to Ivan creates the show's most endearing visual contrast.

Also known as: Horrificator, Polymouse
