10!!Headmaster Soulstone
11[[quoteright:196:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/headmaster2.png]]
12
13The Headmaster of the Academy. Soulstone usually resides in the Headmaster's Tower at the top of the school and runs the Academy with a loving hand. He has a strange connection to Merlin's Oak that few understand, and sends out acceptance letters using a system none are privy to. Despite his secrets, the Headmaster is a grandfatherly figure that welcomes each and every student into his Academy with open arms.
14----
15* BigGood: Essentially this for the Academy. The only person who could challenge him on this title is Merlin, and he became a tree a couple of thousand years ago.
16* CoolOldGuy: Friend to students and generally all around good guy.
17* DishingOutDirt: A stonewielder, and an extremely skilled one at that.
18* AFatherToHisMen: Treats the staff as if they were his own family, and treats the students as his children. He's even a ParentalSubstitute for some of them, and frequently encourages students to come to him with their problems.
19* GoodIsNotNice: For all his gentle speech, Soulstone nearly killed Leah in his rage.
20* NotSoAboveItAll: Soulstone is always willing to join in with the students' antics. In an Arc IV roleplay, he challenged Juno to a water gun fight.
21* OneWingedAngel: Tapped into Merlin's power to fight Leah as a last resort. [[CurbStompBattle She still kicked his ass.]]
22* PapaWolf: Fiercely protective of his school and his students. He doesn't take kindly to anyone that tries to disrupt the safe atmosphere that he tries to project through the campus.
23* ParentalSubstitute: Many students don't have a parental figure in their life and he's not afraid to take up the role. A notable example would be his friendship with Sylvia.
24* TheScapegoat: He really can't cop a break. A giant dragon attacks his school and the council blames him for it.
25%%* SilverFox: A bit of a stunner of an old headmaster.
26* SinkOrSwimMentor: Firmly believes that the students should be allowed to make, and learn from, their own mistakes.
27%%* WaistcoatOfStyle: Common fashion item for this fellow.
28* TheWorfEffect: He played the punching bag in Leah's big show of strength.[[/folder]]

34!!Qamar Amadi
35[[quoteright:136:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/amadi2.png]]
36
37Professor of the Creatures class. Amadi was thrown from xir conservative household after coming out as gender-neutral and spent their late teens and early adulthood exploring various magick biomes and studying hundreds of species up-close. When xey came to Wales to study the wildlife in Nimue's Forest, the Headmaster found and hired xem.
38----
39%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
40* BoyishShortHair: Keeps xir hair very short and wrapped up.
41* GreenThumb: A plantwielder.
42* FriendToAllLivingThings: It would be very wise not to harm a living creature in xir presence.
43
44!!Alexander Brighton
45[[quoteright:118:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brighton2.png]]
46
47Professor of the Element class. Brighton traveled the globe in his early years, learning about the various aspects from different masters of the elements. In his travels, Brighton met four individuals immortalized in a picture frame on his desk, none of whom he talks about. Brighton has been teaching at Merlin for a long time.
48----
49%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.

52%%* NotSoStoic: Mention the Suit and cracks start to show.

57[[quoteright:184:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/giambra2.png]]
58
59Professor of the History of Magicks class. Giambra is well known on campus as being the most embarrassing professor, trying to connect with the students in a manner much like Hillary Clinton scrambling for the millennial vote. While he does mean well, Giambra does a terrible job trying to connect with students, but he's a decent teacher for his age.
60----
61%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
62%%* CoolTeacher: At least tries to be.
63* MakingASplash: A waterwielder.

65
66!!Caedah Pilon
67[[quoteright:176:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pilon2.png]]
68
69Professor of the Charms class. Pilon has experience with street performance, as she found it difficult to hold down a job at first after graduating. She eventually got a master's in teaching and returned to the Academy immediately. Pilon has a reputation for being a difficult teacher, but this usually comes from students in the morning classes before her coffee kicks in.
70----
71%%* BadassTeacher: A requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
72%% * BerserkButton: Do not mess with her coffee. Do not get between her and her coffee. Do not do it. You ''will'' regret it.
73* BlowYouAway: A windwielder.
74%%* IronLady: She's ordinarily very easygoing, but if you push her too much she'll revert to this.
75* SinkOrSwimMentor: Her finals for the fourth years include pushing them off a cliff to test their skills at Divinity.
76* TrademarkFavoriteFood: She loves coffee so much she keeps an espresso machine in her classroom.

81Professors in the academic department.
82
83!!Kamala Kadakia
84[[quoteright:136:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kadakia2.png]]
85
86Teaches the Magic Theory class. Kadakia has traveled the world via flying carpet and studied dozens of magical systems firsthand around the world. She loves participating in Holi and makes it a point to throw pigmented powder in her students' face and ''then'' explain the holiday afterward. An excellent professor that puts her students' well-being above all else.
87----
88%%* BadassTeacher Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
89* ClosetGeek: A closer look at her desk reveals several issues of ''ComicBook/MsMarvel'' that are well-thumbed through.
90* CultureEqualsCostume: Wears a sari, fitting her heritage.
91* NiceGirl: Doesn't have a mean bone in her body, and often provides students with hot drinks on cold days.
92
93!!Nicholas Pagonis
94[[quoteright:102:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/pagonis2.png]]
95
96Teaches the Academic class. Pagonis is one of the top academics in the magick world, touring during the summer to give lectures at various conventions. There are, however, rumors that he was deeply involved in Project Dawn in its beginning, though he got out before things got too serious.
97----
98* AwesomenessByAnalysis: As the Academic master, Pagonis is very good at picking out the finer details. He put these skills to good use when Janus's lamp was stolen.
99%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
100* BadBoss: Piles on work and expects far more from Simon than any sane man should. This is mostly because his subordinate is just a mundane, though.
101%%* CulturedBadass: You know a lot when you're teaching an Academic class.
102* DishingOutDirt: A stonewielder.
103* {{Jerkass}}: To Simon, at any rate, much like many of the other professors. He seems to be the general ringleader when it comes to slinging mud in Simon's direction. He also heaps more work than should be necessary on Simon, simply because he can get away with it.
104
105!!Roderick Bobbitt
106[[quoteright:145:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/bobbitt.png]]
107
108Taught the Scholar class before Professor Gilios. Killed by Leah simply to make a point.
109----
110%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
111* ADeathInTheLimelight: Always existed in the background and brought into the foreground at last only to be killed off.
112* DroppedABridgeOnHim: Killed with almost no prior warning. Leah simply killed him as a demonstration of what would happen if orders weren't followed, showing how serious Unit 53 was.
113* HotTeacher: One of the reasons the scholar class is oddly popular is because he's the one teaching it.
114* PlayingWithFire: A flamewielder.
115* WeHardlyKnewYe: Murdered with nary a chance to show his character.
116
117!!Simon Gilios
118[[quoteright:166:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/simon_3.png]]
119
120The only mundane on staff aside from the groundskeeper. Previously known as the Merchant, Simon lives in a cart that's bigger on the inside on the southwest end of Justus. He used to run the magick black market in Justus, as well as the drug trade, but now makes a living as the scholar professor. His left forearm is an artificial limb, and there's an S-shaped brand on the inside of his right arm. He smokes when he thinks nobody is looking but for the most part is a friendly professor that's very casual with the students.
121
122Don't talk to him about compasses.
123----
124* AnArmAndALeg: Gave up his hand in order to save Muna. He hasn't regretted it once.
125* ArtificialLimbs: Well, ''one'' artificial forearm. And it's a pretty cool forearm, so he's not complaining.
126* AscendedExtra: Simon was originally a flat NPC known as the Merchant to connect students to the black market. He has since developed into a well-rounded character and the scholar professor to boot.
127* BadassBookworm: His library is small but packed full of information you can't get anywhere else, and he's seen his fair share of danger and come out on the better end of it.
128* BadassNormal: Being a mundane doesn't stop him from jumping into dangerous situations and coming out on top.
129* TheBarnum: Enjoys swindling people out of their cash - this is a habit that he hasn't broken from his merchant days.
130%%* BattleCouple: With Marianne.
131* ButNowIMustGo: After being attacked by both gangs in Justus at the same time, Simon vanished for a year to let things cool down and to get his shit in order.
132* TheCharmer: Very good at charming people in order to get what he wants, whether it's information or an item.
133* ChillyReception: Receives this from the faculty on a whole. This is partially due to all the other professors being experts in their fields, while Simon is not a formally trained scholar, and partially because it seems insulting to them to have a mundane be a professor along with the rest of them. Not to mention his family history.
134* ColdBloodedTorture: Withstood everything from being stabbed in the shoulder to having his arm ripped off whilst captured by Unit 53.
135* DarkAndTroubledPast: Simon was erased from the public and private record soon after he entered college as his mother believed he was seeing hallucinations (when he was actually Seeing quite clearly) and deemed him unfit to head the family. Desperate for help, Simon listened to his sister Ceana and checked himself into a mental institution, where he was wrongly diagnosed with delusional disorder and medicated as such. The resulting overdosage gave him actual hallucinations and threw him in and out of vivid comas where he lived full lives only to wake back up in a hospital bed, to the point that he no longer has the ability to tell if his life is a hallucination or not.
136* DistressedDude: Abducted by Unit 53, who believed he was a Secret Organization operative and tried to [[ColdBloodedTorture torture]] the information out of him as necessary. It didn't work.
137* DownInTheDumps: Quake found his body in a dumpster.
138* EmpoweredBadassNormal: With his arm, which lets him use his fingers as bullets and collect magical energy to sling right back at his enemies.
139* EnergyAbsorption: His arm has the capacity to suck up magical energy and eventually direct it back out as a condensed ball.
140* FingerFirearms: His left hand can literally shoot off the fingers as a sort of bullet. Another button recalls the fingers.
141* FormerlyFit: In the second arc, Simon returned very physically fit. By third arc, he's lost quite a bit of his muscle.
142* {{Greed}}: Regardless of how many changes he goes through, Simon still refuses to do anything if it doesn't benefit him in some way.
143* HiddenDepths: When he was first introduced, Merchant was the sleaziest, most disgusting character in Merlin. Now, he's a much more easygoing guy who knows his limits.
144* TheInformant: Has a ton of information, and is fine with parting with it... for a price.
145%%* IntergenerationalFriendship: With Muna.
146* IHaveNoSon: This was done to him in the worst way back when he was in college - his family completely erased him from the public and private record. As far as the world is concerned, Simon didn't start existing until his early 20s. Fortunately for him, his sister took over the family business and restored his existing status.
147%%* INeedAFreakingDrink: Has this reaction when his old favorite book from his childhood arrives via mail. Simon, thinking someone from his pre-erased life was after him, was understandably freaked out.
148* INeedToGoIronMyDog: Simon will make up just about any excuse to get out of drinking if Tyler is around.
149* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Simon is crass, blunt, and has a habit of pissing people off, but when push comes to shove he stands up for what he believes is morally sound.
150* KickTheDog: Leah ripped his arm off simply because she thought it would be fun.
151* KnowledgeBroker: Since he travels frequently, the Merchant has a lot of dirt on a lot of people and precious items. Muna makes use of this whenever he can.
152* LifeOrLimbDecision: Sacrifice a hand to ensure the safety of a child? For Simon, it wasn't even a choice.
153%%* LivingEmotionalCrutch: Merchant and Marianne have a ''problem.''
154* {{Muggle}}: He's a mundane with [[TrueSight Sight]], a rarity that means he can see through glamour and several illusions - some that would fool even magicks themselves.
155%%* MuggleBestFriend: To Muna and Xander.
156%%* MuggleMageRomance: With Marianne.
157* MugglesDoItBetter: Managed to knock out ''half'' of Unit 53 alone - something no other character was able to do - and nearly escaped from them to boot.
158* MysteriousEmployer: During second plot, Simon was doing some shady collecting for a shady employer that refused to identify themselves. As it turned out, he was collecting artifacts for Unit 53, and ended up getting abducted because of it.
159* TheTeamNormal: When accompanying any group of magicks, Simon is this by default considering his mundane status.
160* NoSenseOfPersonalSpace: Has a tendency to get ''very'' into people's bubbles.
161%%* OfficialCouple: With Marianne.
162* {{Omniglot}}: Speaks ''nine'' languages, and knows sign.
163* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Simon was originally known only as Merchant.
164* RagsToRiches: Dragged himself from the bottom to the top and is proud as hell about it.
165* ReallyGetsAround: First plot, he was well-known for sleeping around with... just about anyone. This stopped immediately once he started dating Marianne.
166* RichesToRags: His powerful, rich family erased him from the public and private record and cut all ties with him. He lost everything in an instant.
167%%* SanitySlippage: Everyone, including himself, believed he was suffering from this as he grew up. And then he went to a hospital and his mental state was completely shattered, so that makes this subverted.
168* TheScapegoat: Used as one in place of Marianne when Unit 53 was investigating the Elfslayer investigations. Due to a strange bout of misinformation, Unit 53 believed he was the Secret Organization agent responsible for the Elfslayer case and abducted him to extract information.
169* StartingANewLife: After getting released from the mental institute, Merchant bought his original cart and started a completely different lifestyle than what he had led for the first part of his life.
170* SwissArmyAppendage: Merchant's arm can shoot the fingers like bullets, absorb magical energy, shoot ''out'' said magical energy, or use the energy to transform into a hammer with the help of a special coin.
171* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: As put together as he appears to be, Simon suffers from a heavy case of unreality. This is a result of an overdose of medication for a condition he didn't have, sending him into constant comas with extremely realistic hallucinations. Simon is unable to tell fiction from reality, and on bad days, believes the life he leads is a hallucination that is going to end as soon as he wakes up.
172%%* TrademarkFavoriteFood: Strawberries.
173* UnfazedEveryman: Has seen so much shit in the magick world that nothing really surprises him anymore.
174* UnPerson: His life as Simon was completely erased from the public and private records. As far as the world is concerned, he didn't exist until he was in his early twenties. This changed, however, when his sister Ceana took charge of the family and immediately wrote him back into existence.
175* WarForFunAndProfit: Egged on a turf war in Justus to drive up his own profits.
176* WoundThatWillNotHeal: Leah applied demon venom to the gaping wound his arm left, and it simply wouldn't stop bleeding.

196
197Teaches the Meditation class.
198----
199%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin. Kura takes it further, being able to achieve this trope in her sleep.
200* BewareTheQuietOnes: Just because she's asleep a lot doesn't mean she isn't as powerful as the rest of the professors.
201* BlowYouAway: A windwielder.
202* ClosetGeek: Keeps a large stash of comics and manga underneath the couch bed she has in place of a desk.
203* CultureEqualsCostume: Japanese, and she wears a kimono.
204* {{Sleepyhead}}: She has a tendency to fall asleep in class. And at staff meetings. And during meals. She sleeps a lot.
205* SnotBubble: Sports one of these sometimes, considering she sleeps all the dang time.

216%%* ProperLady: She certainly acts the part.
217

224%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
225* BrutalHonesty: No mercy when it comes to letting his students know of their failings.
226* CantTieHisTie: Whether it's because he seriously doesn't know or he's just too lazy, his tie is rarely done up.
227%%* HealingHands: Standard for healers.
228* HollywoodAcid: An acidwielder.
229* TheMedic: If you get injured on campus, his office is the place to go.
230* SeriouslyScruffy: He always looks like he just got out of bed, and he probably did.

239----

252
253Teaches the Channeling class.
254----
255* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin. Riona's reputation precedes her, being a powerful mage that can channel through just about anything. There's even rumors that she can channel through things from a distance.
256* BewareTheQuietOnes: Do not annoy her. She may seem like a bit of a pushover, but Riona is the best mage on the staff hands down.
257* EmotionlessGirl: It's really hard to make her even twitch an eyebrow. This was actually exploited during one Halloween where one of the games was to make her make an expression.
258%%* HotTeacher: See design.
259%%* IcyBlueEyes: See design. They're almost always half closed, but don't assume she isn't paying attention.
260* MakingASplash: A waterwielder.

278----
279%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.

303
304Professor of the Potions class. Ambercutter, a city elf, shared her practitioner knowledge with forest communities before coming to Merlin. Ambercutter is a calm, logical professor, who tends to be a physical shield when her coworkers get up to their antics.

307* GenkiGirl: Quite cheerful, most of the time.
308* MysteriousMist: A mistwielder.
309* OnlySaneMan: Frequently the only sane professor at meetings, and often the voice of reason when things get a little too hectic.

328----
329%%* BadassTeacher: Pretty much a requirement for teaching at the Academy of Merlin.
330* TheGogglesDoNothing: He always has goggles pushed over his head, but he rarely actually puts them on during class. They're probably just there for show.

333!!Josephine Eastwood
334[[quoteright:160:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eastwood2.png]]
335
336Teaches the Chemist class.
337----
338* BadassTeacher: Despite all of Josephine's antics, when it comes down to it she's a powerful chemist and adept at weaponizing some of her more volatile tonics if need be.
339* BunnyEarsLawyer: Despite her unorthodox teaching methods and tendency to be more interested in making things blow up than what's actually on the lesson plan, Josephine is good at her job.
340* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Her excitable personality and tendency to want to make shit explode has her come off as this.
341* GenkiGirl: A cheerful woman that enjoys pulling pranks on her coworkers and is rarely seen not smiling, even when covered with soot.
342* MakingASplash: Became a waterwielder to put out the numerous fires she causes during her classes.
343* StuffBlowingUp: If you hear an explosion on campus, it's probably her fault. Actually, it's always her fault. If you hear an explosion, just blame Josephine.
344* TheTrickster: One of her hobbies includes playing pranks on other professors. They don't think it's as funny as she does.

354The school nurse, hired to make up for the absence of the other nurse. Inherited a very unfortunate office.
355----
356* BrainyBrunette: A smart woman with curly chestnut locks.
357* InnocentBlueEyes: Julia may very well be one of the most truthful adults in Merlin, and she has wide blue eyes to complete the look.
358* TheMedic: A healer, and a very good one at that as she mixes both mundane and magic types of healing.
359* NiceGirl: A kind woman that will never turn away an injured party. She doesn't seem to differentiate between the different factions in the school, either.
360* SchoolNurse: The nurse for the school, who is stuck in a very, very unfortunate office.
361* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: What are you talking about? She doesn't have a crush on the librarian. Don't be silly. You must be delirious, lie down in bed.

367
368The groundskeeper that takes care of the outdoors appearance of the Academy. Is rarely sighted.
369----
370* TheGhost: Never appears on campus anywhere, ever. Somewhat justified in that the campus is large and she's the only one taking care of it.
371* GreenEyedRedHead: Emerald-green eyes and red hair tied in low pigtails.
372* {{Muggle}}: A mundane that's managed to secure work at the Academy of all places..
373* MythologyGag: Left over from GEIOW - she was a character's attendant, but through unknown circumstances has ended up as the groundskeeper.
374* NiceGirl: A kind woman that will always accept a student into her shack to share a cup of tea. Not that that ever happens.

381
382The librarian that spends a lot of his time reading.
383----

405
406A young-looking elf who lives in Nimue's Forest. Extremely old.
407----
408* TheAgeless: Carrmin is millennia old, and possibly the oldest living being on Earth. Yet he has the appearance of a twelve year old boy.
409* BadassAdorable: Cute to a fault, but consider him an enemy and he'll wipe the floor with you startlingly quickly.
410* BadassCape: Wears a somewhat ratty brown cape thrown over one shoulder.
411* CheerfulChild: A happy, smiling boy for the most part. You'd never guess he's ReallySevenHundredYearsOld.
412%%* DarkAndTroubledPast: One that's slowly being elaborated on in the Story of the First Elf.
413* EloquentInMyNativeTongue: Carrmin's human speech is rather poor; his elven is much better, and he comes across as much better articulated when speaking that way. Always a good idea to bring an elf along when you visit Carrmin.
414* GreenThumb: Quite fond of plants. And, of course, he's a plantwielder.
415%%* HealingHands: An accomplished healer.
416* HiddenDepths: Much wiser than he lets on at first.
417* IHaveManyNames: [[spoiler:Eryl refers to Carrmin as Caelian, Cathmor, and Carrmin interchangeably, because those are all names he took on in the past.]]
418* ImmortalImmaturity: Played with. Carrmin loves to play tag and hide and seek, but he can also be very serious when he has to be. Simply put, unless he wants you to think otherwise, you would never know him as anything but a fun-loving, twelve-year-old elf boy.
419%%* IntergenerationalFriendship:
420%%** With pretty much all of the students, but especially Cabbage.
421%%** [[spoiler:Himself with Eryl also counts, though it's more of a PlatonicLifePartners sort of thing.]]
422* LivingLegend: As Eryl reveals, Carrmin is the [[spoiler:First Elf spoken about in elven legend.]]
423* MysticalWhiteHair: Carrmin's hair is stark white, and is probably the only physical thing that belies his true age.
424* NarratorAllAlong: [[spoiler:Carrmin told the story of the First Elf to a bunch of elves, and is later discovered to be the actual First Elf.]]
425* OlderThanTheyLook: Actually thousands and thousands of years old, but he takes on the form of a young boy.
426* PhysicalGod: [[spoiler:Combined with Eryl and gaining Eryl's control over forests makes him]] the closest thing this world has to one.
427%%* PlatonicLifePartners: [[spoiler:With Eryl.]]
428* Really700YearsOld: More like really seven ''thousand'', but who knows.
429* TalkingToThemself: He's been known to talk to air when he doesn't think anyone is around.
430* WiseBeyondHisYears: Carrmin appears to be this - it's easy to forget he's thousands of years old.
431* WhenTreesAttack: Carrmin doesn't attack anyone directly; he has such control over the forest that he simply lets the forest do the fighting for him.
