Merlyn

Jet-black Maine Coon Cat acquired as a kitten by Bob in Joplin, MO after graduating from Purdue in 1982. We see him from 'You All Meet In A Lab' through 'The First Dimensional War'. Died of old age before 'What Happens in Vegas...'

Character sheet: all
  • Amplified Animal Aptitude: May have dialed 911 for Shina after she was wounded by Panzer in 'Fields of Saguenay'
  • Cats Are Superior: Vikon has stated on numerous occasions that Merlyn is as intelligent as most humans, and can communicate with him telepathically ('Reign of the Destroyer', 'Masquerade', and 'The First Dimensional War').
  • Cats Have Nine Lives: Survived the attack on Dormyer Manor in 1992 (with a little help from Ladyhawk) and Panzer's attack in 1996
  • Female Feline, Male Mutt: Conversed and subverted in the beginning of 'The Strange Secret of Matthew Fuseli', where Ted instinctively assigns a female pronoun describing Merlyn and Bob corrects him.
  • Meganeko: Well, he IS a Maine Coon Cat...
