	When Knights of the Round first came to the Realms (Early 1999, See CoD back issue #2 for an interview with Bede regarding it.), Merlin was considered one of the most exclusive secrets.

Concentrating all their efforts on the area they had the secrets cracked relatively quickly fueling the unfounded speculations that [[Bede]] had in some ways helped them. Ascendere maintained the secrets of Merlin for a good few months before a group from [[Inconnu]] managed to find their way in. Between the two orders the secret was closely guarded and it took some time before it became common knowledge on how to get to Merlin. [[Ascendere]] could get to him. At length, [[Dragonslayers]] also started running, but at that point they were practically an Ascendere satellite, so hardly really counted as a distinct run group.

	In battle, Merlin ~~shapeshifts~~ back and forth between various shapes. If a person manages to kill Merlin, that person (i.e. the one who gets the ~~killblow~~) has their [[~~mentalstate~~]] pumped way up, and they start to hallucinate. In battle, Merlin picks up any items off the ground and dumps them in a room called "The Ethereal Plane", which noone has ever managed to find (but [[the spirit of Sir Gawain]] drops an item, [[guiding light]], whose long description claims that it guides the way there). [[Bede]] claimed at one point that Merlin is supposed to return items thus confiscated when he dies, and hinted at a connection between this, Merlin's Bag of Tricks, and the Silver Crescent-- but Merlin does not return them, and Bede claims this is an accident (but by the time it was discovered, Bede was no longer an [[immortal]]).
