Who should I merge?

I want to start merging another 3* 4* base unit. I have already merged a Basilikos Raven and a Nowi, now I'm looking for a red or colorless unit to merge, preferably ones that play very differently from my Raven and Nowi. I don't want to merge an adult tiki, since she would be too similar to Nowi's. I want a somewhat unique, but powerful and versatile build, that is preferably kinda cheap. I did have good fodder laying around if need be. Non-infantry units slightly preferred, so I can run tactic on my merged team.

Caeda’s pretty neat with her wing sword, high res, and good speed. +Atk preferred. Blade tomb Tharjs is great, but infantry obv.

A colourless wrazzle dazzle pain+ double savage blow healer like Priscilla/Clarine is a great choice for Tactics. Keeps you fresh and destroys the enemy. Can’t think of other colourless.

Draug for armour, he’s quite decent. Cain for Cavalry, although he’s not the best. Hope this kind of helps!

Reds:
- you might be kind of squeezed because a lot of the swords are infantry and Caeda plays similar to Raven due to low physical bulk.
- You could go with Palla. Seems to play fairly well on either phase due to pretty solid bulk.
- Ares is getting pretty popular with the Dark Mystletainn, doing stuff like DC vantage.
- special fighter Draug could be interesting, especially now that barrier blade is a thing
- buffers: M.Corrin, Marth
- Eirika is an interesting option. Extremely potent on a tactics team.
- If arena score is not a concern, Lilina can be considered, though I consider her a buff-dependent unit who doesn't get as much out of merges as some of the other options. Special spiral has turned her into a terrifying monster.
- Selena plays fairly differently from Nowi even though she's also a tank. She's very fast with quite low of atk; she tends to rely on an earth-shattering ignis, often boosted by wo dao and wrath.

Colourless:
- Felicia: I need to evaluate where I think she stands now that her sister Flora is entering with a very impressive weapon.
- Healers will definitely show you a play style Raven and Nowi don't know about. You can pick a cavalry healer if you want to fit her on a tactics team.
- Setsuna and Leon gained some potential thanks to the new shining bow from Nina, maybe Leon more than Setsuna because being super-fast like Setsuna tends to lend itself to fighting super-fast units, which tend to have almost no defenses at all, which means their def and res are equally bad and the bow's effect doesn't activate. In contrast, Leon has lower spd and saves stat points for more atk and def, which is perfect for picking fights with DC units other than dragons, who are the most likely candidates to have the 35/25/35/15 kind of statline that he hard-counters with shining bow.

If you have some problems with arena try +10 M!Corrin or Marth.
Their BST isn't big but when I first started my marth project doing arena was pretty easy since the buffs were so good.
Also now with all those bonus points from bonus units, some more buffs are even more good.

for red units, MCorrin, Eirika, and Marth can be very strong and provide support with their refined weapons. Soleil, Hana, and Lonqu are super fast and Tharja or Lilina can OHKO most units with low investment.

for colorless Kaze and Legault both have slightly higher bst than other ranged units but archers like Jeorge, Klein or Virion can also work. Azama and Wrys can heal and tank physical or magic damage respectively, while Maria, Sakura, and Serra are a little faster than the others.
