Merga

This section contains information about content that is currently in development.

Do you remember what you began? You came to this world uninvited. You breathed in the sound of your screams...and out the flames of war. You watched us burn and buried the ashes... but I am the Final Ember! The world you saved...will soon be purified. Just as you wished...Magister. And all that will remain...are monsters.

Merga, also known as the Final Ember, is the main antagonist in Freedom Planet 2. She is a Water Dragon who was Bio-Engineered to be the perfect warrior. Now she has returned, seeking vengeance on the descendants of those who imprisoned her.

Personality

Merga is ruthless and evil, possibly due to the power she obtained from being bio-engineered. She may also be manipulative.

Attributes

As a bio-engineered Water Dragon, Merga may possess different abilities, such as telekinesis and the ability to take on different forms to fight.

History

Pre-Freedom Planet

Over 100 years ago, during Avalice's oldest war, she was sealed in a crystal prison with the Kingdom Stone's power, and placed under the waters of Parusa.

Freedom Planet 2

As a result of the Kingdom Stone's destruction, Merga is freed from her crystal prison. Now she aims to take vengeance upon the Avalicians with the ancient Super-Weapon Bakunawa. She hires Corazon Tea to transport her troops and supplies, and enlists the help of Aaa to build weapons and machines for her troops. As far as Merga knows, she is the only Water Dragon in existence, unaware of another Water Dragon still existing in the present day.

Trivia

• Merga's Super-Weapon, the Bakunawa, is named after the Moon Eater, a Sea Dragon from Philippine Mythology. This is one of many references to the Philippine Culture in Freedom Planet 2.
• In the Kurdish language, Merga means "Death" (مەرگ).
• It seems like Merga may be able to control the Bakunawa with her mind, as seen in the FP2 announcement trailer. The trailer shows Merga putting her fist up as the Bakunawa rises. Either Merga is using telekinesis to control the Bakunawa, or perhaps she was only putting her fist up for a dramatic effect.
• It is unknown whether Merga chose to be bio-engineered, or was forced to.
• It is confirmed that Merga does not any kind of relative connection to Lilac. The only similarity they share is that there both the last Water Dragons.
