Merlin

As a child, Merlin was tormented by his mothers secret past. As an adult, he searched for his own identity. This led him to realize that he was the heir to a greater power. He became the rope in a tug-of-war competition between the lords of power. Despite the fact that, if Merlin joined either of them, the balance of religion would be offset two to one. Mankind would become automatons worshipping the victor for lack of a better thing to do. Merlin wanted more than that.

When the Saxons invaded Britain, he defended the Celts and became a legend.
