Mercy is the clan's alchemist, and she does a pretty solid job. Need anything brewed and the imperial will have it done as fast as possible. When it comes to her work there's nothing much to complain about.

The true problems start when Mercy decides to get.... experimental with things. Once the orange imperial gets an idea in her head, no-one can truly stop her from experimenting and testing it out. The result of these experiments can range from 'giving everyone's wings strange, colorful and chaotic patterns that no-one was happy with' to 'An explosion that caused the entire lair to collapse' and ANYTHING in between.

Trying to stop Mercy from these experiments is near impossible, but succeeding it doing so is arguably even worse than just letting the imperial do her thing; because when you manage to stop her, it's only temporary. Mercy will find a way to carry out whatever whacky experiment she may have thought of, and she's gonna go big, because if she doesn't other dragons may stop her again.

You can't stop science and alchemical art, when it's far bigger than you.

Obviously, this rarely if ever ends up giving a positive result, and Mercy RARELY learns from the experience; she knows now not to do what she just tried, but that was just one experiment of many~!
