Life[edit | edit source]

Merlin was born sometime in between the mid 1500s to early 1600s on The Sphere. Growing up, Merlin was an avid reader of the newspaper, and was often regaled with the exploits of popular mages of her time (given that by this period, knowledge of magic had become common). She was also enamored with fantasy and folklore, most notably the Arthurian Romance. As a young girl, she dreamed of becoming a famous mage.

As a young woman, however, Merlin was impeded in this dream due to initially lacking any sign of magical potential, resulting in every university she approached denying her entry as a student. Seeking a way past this obstacle, she would eventually discover Paganism, and through its various magicks both became the Second Prince, and unlocked her spark. Given her Spark's power, which allowed her to cast any spell she had managed to successfully even once without the need to concentrate, she was soon begrudgingly accepted into a university. She proved a dutiful study, and due to being one of the few women of the era talented enough in the arcane arts to be admitted she... saw great progress in her career, eventually becoming a professor. Her tenure would not be a peaceful one however, as though she played the part of the dutiful and well behaved student, in her new position she relished causing mischief for her peers.

Her students received outstanding grades, but her conduct was intolerable, thus the University decided to remove her. She was soon picked up by yet another university however, owing to the stellar marks of her previous class, and there she would presumably stay. During this time, she met and work with the enigmatic Watcher, who was then masquerading as an ordinary professor. She would not know Watcher's significance until the 20th century when she would encounter him again and note that he was still very much alive for a man who should be at least several hundred years old.

Sometime prior to the first World War, Merlin embarked on a personal crusade to uncover the identity of The First Prince. She spent the entirety of the World Wars, and presumably a while after, hunting down and interrogating hermits in the mountains. Following the wars, the Earth's magical eco-system began to die due to the wanton misuse of magic for destructive purposes throughout the conflicts. It was then that Merlin again found Watcher, learned of his true power and that he alone could save humanity, if only he had the mind to. Merlin took it upon herself to convince him, uncovering an ancient artifact known as "Pandora's box", which was actually a locket that could store the favor of others. Using it, she collected the hopes and dreams of those with hope still alive in their hearts during such a dire time, and presented them all to Watcher. Moved by the sentiments he witnessed in that moment, Watcher took action and carried what few survivors he could to a new (or perhaps, old?) home for humanity, sealing his own hope inside Pandora's box shortly thereafter.

Merlin's actions in convincing Watcher may well be the only thing that saved the human race from falling along with it's home world.
