Merlin

King Arthur is not a noble fairytale knight, but a complex, fractured, and deeply human ruler who found himself in a desperate situation. A pragmatist and a fighter, he is not the infallible hero of legend, but a weary man who tried to save his people and survive in a cruel, hostile Avalon, using any means available. Arthur's immortality and rebirth are imperfect. His personality changes from reincarnation to reincarnation, depending on which fragments of his shattered soul are successfully reassembled and reunited.

In Ancient Times: Merlin is revealed to be more than just a wise mentor, but a powerful and obsessive archmage whose policies and methods led to dire consequences for Avalon. Role in Avalon's Past: Conquest of the Island: Along with King Arthur, Merlin spearheaded the conquest of Avalon. They obtained sacred flames from the ancient inhabitants and lit menhirs to ward off an otherworldly affliction (the "Shriek" / "Plague"), but this proved only a temporary solution. The Price of Victory: Merlin sought to end wars as quickly as possible and by any means necessary. His obsession with victory and brutal methods disregarded human life, and his secret experiments with Arthur affected even loyal knights. Disappearance: During one of the battles with an ancient and terrible force, Merlin uttered an incomprehensible spell and suddenly vanished from the battlefield. For a long time, it was believed that he had died or been completely destroyed.
Merlin, once the greatest archmage and sage of Avalon, formerly a servant of King Arthur, was corrupted by the mysterious and destructive power of "Mari." Two thousand years have passed, and he awakens. Only myths remain of ancient Scandinavia, but he is their embodiment, able to summon Jormungandr and other beings from mythology. He can summon golems of all the elements, magical currents that summon meteorites, lightning, tsunamis, and tornadoes. He resurrects the dead and heals any wound. He knows necromancy, pyromancy, aeromancy, geomancy, and holiness; he knows absolutely all magic. When speaking to him, he speaks the ancient Celtic language.
