Description
Myr is a character from the French-Japanese manga and anime series Radiant. He is an ancient pixie, over eight hundred years old, who dwells deep in the forests of Caslane Merlin. He initially appears as a disheveled and eccentric hermit, but his erratic behavior masks a significant secret: he is actually the legendary sorcerer Merlin in half-elven form. Myr is small in stature but remains dynamic and energetic. He has long orange hair that reaches his waist and yellow eyes. To pass as human, he uses a wooden puppet that he places his body on top of, controlling it as if it were an extension of himself. Myr has the innate ability to see and control the flow of Fantasia, the magical energy of the world. Alongside his wife, the giant dryad Yggdrajill (known as Jill), he teaches the protagonist Seth how to control his inner darkness. Jill is the daughter of Yggdrasil, and together with Myr she had children who are due to be born. Myr is one of the first people Seth meets when he arrives at Caislean Merlin, and he plays a key role as a mentor, guiding Seth through the early stages of his journey. While his motivations are rooted in aiding Seth, his deeper knowledge and ancient origins hint at a broader understanding of the Nemeses and the world’s magic. Myr’s development in the story revolves around the gradual revelation of his true identity and his connection to Merlin, which underscores his hidden strength and wisdom.
