Melaka Fray is a fictional character created by Joss Whedon and Karl Moline for the 2001 comic book limited series Fray, a spin-off set in a futuristic setting of the shared fictional universe in which the TV series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel are established, referred to as the "Buffyverse." The character's story was later continued in the graphic novel Tales of the Slayers and in a Buffy crossover in the Season Eight "Time of Your Life" story arc, as well as in its motion comic companion, in which she is voiced by Michelle Wong.^{[citation needed]}

In Fray, Melaka is depicted as the latest in the mystical line of vampire slayers, chosen ones born with the strength and skill to fight the forces of evil, over 200 years in the future. However, unlike other vampire slayers, Mel is unusual in that she was one of a pair of twins; her brother Harth somehow inherited the psychic aspects of a slayer's abilities, leaving her with only the strength, agility, and other physical attributes. Prior to Mel, a slayer had not been "called" to receive her powers for centuries.
