Merlin is the protagonist without a doubt. In addition to the well - known characters from the Merlin series, there could be some original characters. For instance, a young apprentice who looks up to Merlin and tags along on his journey. There could also be a group of dark sorcerers who are trying to prevent Merlin from reaching the Golden King. And perhaps a spirit of the forest that communicates with Merlin and provides him with valuable information. The character of the Golden King could also have some attendants or guardians that Merlin has to face or befriend during his journey.
Obviously, Merlin would be the main character. Arthur could also be involved, perhaps as someone Merlin has to leave behind or someone he's trying to protect during his journey. Morgana might be there too, either as an antagonist or a reluctant ally. And there could be new, made - up characters like a wise old wizard who gives Merlin clues about the Golden King.
Well, it could be about Merlin embarking on a quest to find the Golden King. Maybe he has to overcome various magical obstacles and face dangerous creatures along the way. He might also meet new allies who help him in his journey.
There might also be Arthur. In the original Merlin series, Arthur and Merlin have a very close relationship, so it's likely he'll be in this fanfiction too. His role as the future king and his relationship with Merlin are often key elements in such stories.
Obviously, Harry Potter himself. And there could be Dumbledore, who might guide Harry in this new path related to Merlin. Also, Hermione and Ron could be there, either helping Harry or being a bit skeptical about this new adventure.
A young wizard could be a main character. The wizard might be seeking the Golden Dragon King's help to defeat a dark force that is spreading across the land. Or a brave knight who is on a mission to slay the Golden Dragon King at first but then realizes he is on the wrong side and ends up joining forces with him.
Most likely, the main character is the Golden King. But there could also be other characters like his advisers who help him manage his gold - related affairs, or perhaps enemies who are envious of his gold and try to take it from him.
Obviously, Merlin is a must - include character. He is the central figure with his druid powers and his connection to Camelot. Arthur should also be in it. His relationship with Merlin, especially as Merlin is delving deeper into his druid side, can create a lot of interesting dynamics. Gwen can be included as well. She has a kind heart and could play a role in bridging the gap between Camelot and the druids, maybe through her own understanding of the common people.
The main characters would most likely start with Naruto. But we can't forget about his friends from the Hidden Leaf. Shikamaru, with his intelligence, might be involved in strategizing for Naruto's journey. Hinata could also be a main character, given her relationship with Naruto. And there's always the possibility of villains from the past making a comeback or new villains emerging as main antagonists in this second journey.
Merlin was a powerful wizard. He was Arthur's mentor and advisor.
The king is obviously important as the main character on a quest. The golden bird is also crucial as it's the object of the king's pursuit. And if there is a fox in the story, it's very important too, as it usually gives advice to the king.
The main characters are the young boy and his two brothers.
