Without a doubt, my most favorite character is Merlin. Partly because he is humorous and gets into various funny situations like me all the time, but mostly because I just think that he is a very epic character. Although he is very humorous and quite ridiculous, he is also a very good sorcerer and definitely an oponent who should not be underestimated by anyone. I also like Merlin because he is not afraid to take action, and fight for what he believes in like we saw in the episode Aithusa where he decided to save the dragon egg against all odds. He also is not afraid to stand up to his enemies, like he did with Arthur in The Dragon's Call (although it was quite sure that he wasn't going to win). And he is without a doubt the most loyal friend out of all the characters in the show! Just think of how many times he has saved Arthurs life! I also love how during the show Merlin has developed from a young boy into a strong and courageous man. And of course, Merlin is also the funniest character on the show, and has tons of absolutely hilarious quotes like "It just happens!" or "And you, oh I have heard how you.. mistreat your servants! They do everything for you but do they ever get any thanks? Nooo! You're a spoilt prat with the brains of a donkey and the face of a toad!" And of course, he gets into so many funny situations, like him trying to get out of Morganas room without her noticing etc. He is generally just a really lovable character! So Merlin is definitely both a funny character who provides a lot of humourous moments, but is also a very inspiring character! I would love to have him as a friend!
