Storyline[edit | edit source]

Merlin was created by Mordred to serve as his companion. Mordred was able to create a robotic owl and put a barn owl's brain inside to create Merlin. He probably was fed Mechanical Mice. But the King and Queen thought creations, like Merlin himself, were illegal and unatural. Mordred was locked up in the dungeon for Merlin's creation, but Merlin soon helped his master escape. After Mordred tunneled his way out of prison and resumed work in his Lab, the royal guards discovered the location of Mordred's Hideout and prepared to put him back behind bars once again. Mordred escaped into the skies in a spacecraft he had not yet completed before the royal guards could capture him. Mordred probably left Merlin to stay at his Hideout because there probably wasn't enough time for Mordred to bring him along. In the hideout, he entered a sleep-like state.

Merlin was awoken one day by The Chosen One, who had discovered Mordred's Hideout and had ventured inside. Merlin then flew outside and flew above a rock. The Chosen One released a Mechanical Mouse (One of Mordred's creations) which Merlin promptly ate. Merlin then joined his new owner: the Chosen One on their quest to save Elyana. The Chosen One had found a Fuel Rod to use to power the Excalibur, one of the ships sent to capture the Princess and let Merlin take it. The Chosen One set the coordinates for the Pewter Moon. Merlin came along, however the Fuel Rod became depleted, and the Excalibur crashed into the moon. Merlin and the Chosen One were alright, but there was no way they could fly in the Excalibur anymore. The Chosen One went inside of the Astrozone store and asked the mechanic if he could get a spacecraft. The Mechanic said the Chosen One could if they left him the Excalibur for scrap. The Chosen One agreed, and built a spacecraft. Merlin and the Chosen One boarded the ship and ventured to three different planets; the Jungle Planet, the Fire Planet, and the Ice Planet. On these three planets, the Chosen One destroyed three robots created by Mordred and brought three knights that had set out to find the Princess to their spacecraft. The five of them ventured to an asteroid which was covered in blue crystals. The asteroid had a key stuck in a crystal only the Chosen One could pull which unlocked a portal to Mordred's Fortress, which was located in another galaxy. The Chosen One ventured inside, where the Chosen One met Mordred, disguised as the Princess. Mordred (disguised as the Princess) asked the Chosen One for the mystical weapons of Arturus, which the Chosen One gave to him. Mordred then revealed himself and left behind a puzzle. The Chosen One solved the puzzle, which was a door to the inside of his Fortress, and entered.

Inside, the Princess was in a cell and Mordred had gotten into a robot with two spinning blades, bombs, lasers, and a futuristic heat-seeking Shuriken. Merlin then flew in, and Mordred realized that he was a traitor. Mordred fired a Shuriken, but Merlin evaded the weapon. Merlin grabbed two bombs and dropped them on Mordred and his robot. Mordred then fired a laser at Merlin, who fell to the ground to his demise. The Chosen One ran in and jumped on Mordred's robot, and then jumped on two chandeliers. Mordred fired at the chandeliers, which fell on his robot, and then knocked the Green Fuel Orb off of the robot. Mordred drove his robot away, and then jumped out and tried to steal the Orb once again. The Princess was freed from her cell and knocked Mordred out. The Chosen One and the Princess took the Orb and Merlin back to the Kingdom of Arturus. Power was once again restored to Arturus, and the Princess had Merlin repaired and back to normal.

Role in Super Villain Island[edit | edit source]

Poptropica King Mordred Puzzle Game

Merlin himself does not appear on this island, but when the Player ventures into Mordred's mind, his mind creates Merlin as a slave. That figment of Mordred's imagination, however, is actually evil. This Evil Merlin was originally inside a blueprint, but he was created when your Poptropican entered the room at the time. After that, Evil Merlin tries to knock you over and pick you up continuously until you leave the room. Evil Merlin is red and a darker shade of grey instead of blue and light grey, he is much larger than when you see him on Astro Knights and he can easily lift you up. It appears along with the Evil Mechanical Mouse.

King Mordred Poptropica

In the final battle scene in the Bard's planetoid castle, usethe 'skip' button to skip the video after you see it the firsttime. The battle is easier once you know how. (You and Merlinshare a limited amount of health, so avoid being hit or you muststart over.)

  1. As Merlin, fly above the spinning swords, and dodge the redprojectile (flying in circles usually works).
  2. Immediately go down and pick up one of the bombs that the Bard(Mordred) is chucking out. Avoid the red ones because they areabout to explode.
  3. Fly either between or around the sword arms and above thewarrior suit.
  4. Drop the bomb on the control capsule or the green orb as soonas the bomb turns red. It will explode and damage the suit.
  5. Repeat this process, but be wary that TWO of the projectilesmay chase you before you can go down for the bomb.
  6. The second bomb provokes Mordred to zap Merlin.
  7. Jump or dodge the zap coming at YOU now!
  8. Duck down as the warrior suit comes right on top of you. It isnow safe to JUMP UP ON THE ROBOT, and then jump to the Princesspedestal. Dodge any zaps that may be fired during this.
  9. Jump to a chandelier on either side of the room, as the robotsuit rolls right beneath it. When it tries to zap you, it shouldhit the chandelier instead, bringing it crashing down.
  10. Repeat for the other side's chandelier, and the second hit willdislodge the orb and defeat Mordred, freeing the Princess.
