Merlin (TV series)/Characters: Difference between revisions

* [[Cloudcuckoolander]]: While his actions generally make sense to the audience, to everyone else he comes across as utterly bizarre. But he's right enough of the time that some people still take him seriously.

* [[Conflicting Loyalty]]

* [[Cool Old Guy]]: When masquerading as the 80-year-old sorcerer "Dragoon".

* [[Country Mouse]]: At least at first.

* [[Deadpan Snarker]]

* [[Disappeared Dad]]: {{spoiler|Until 2x13. Then, he died.}}

* [[Dragon Rider]] : For relatively practical reasons.

* [[Eyes of Gold]]: When using magic.

* [[Functional Magic]]

* [[Good Is Not Nice]]: Merlin has great power and is far too good to use it. Do NOT piss him off.

{{quote|'''Katie McGrath:''' You do everything to not kill anyone else. The Dragon says kill [Morgana], and you're like "all right."

'''Colin Morgan:''' [[Crowning Moment of Funny|No, I kill loads of people. I kill at least one person an episode.]] }}

* [[Nice Guy]]

* [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero]]: 2x12 has a double whammy: he releases the Great Dragon and poisons Lady Morgana. The former allows the dragon to finally take revenge on Camelot and King Uther, while the latter is a huge reason behind {{spoiler|Morgana's [[Face Heel Turn|face heel turn.]]}}
