The great magician and Archdruid of Britain, Merlin is reputedly the son of a nun and a demon. He was baptized at birth, before the demon could seize his soul, yet retained the supernatural powers he obtained from his father. He is the most skilled and revered of all magicians and, though respectful of Christians and Christianity, practices pagan magic without shame.
   As a magician, he is greatly feared and mistrusted by all right-thinking people. He has great powers of Glamour, and is thus able to temporarily create things, change shape, conceal himself, and move very quickly around the land. He has helped King Uther several times, as well as some other kings such as Lot. He claims to have the best interests of Britain in mind, but no one can truly trust a magician. He periodically disappears into his private hideaway to recover from his magical exertions.
