Meryl

Meryl is a main companion of Jim, and is one of the protagonists of Mogworld.

History
Meryl was born in Borrigarde at an unknown date. The details of her first death are vague, it did however involve a "weird kid who kept playing with his switchblade" who was later hanged. Meryl was Lord Dreadgrave's first sucessful resurrectee, however he didn't know she had free will. She was Dreadgrave's first lab assistant, where she learned important things like anatomy and how to sew bodies back together. After Lord Dreadgrave rose the other undead, she became his company settlement officer.

Personality
In contrast to Jim's sarcastic pessismistic personality, Meryl is very optimistic, caring, outgoing, and generally naive. Her view on the world is rather black and white, believing people (especially Jim) to be "heroes." Meryl tries to see the good in everyone and everything, even when there is none. She constantly annoys Jim by bringing up that he's on a "heroic" quest to save the world, when in reality all he wants is to be deleted, and even when he insults her she remains chipper. However, he relies on her to repair his body when it is damaged, as she's the only one who knows how to sew. She cares about Jim a lot, evidenced by how despondent she became after Barry told her that he destroyed him. Later on, Meryl genuinely becomes angry at Jim after he betrays her and the magic resistance, finally understanding how he sees her. She also is friends with Thaddeus, despite the fact he constantly insults her for being an "affront to God," she is more tolerant of this since she realizes Thaddeus has no other friends.

Meryl also takes immense pride in her home country of Borrigarde, Jim describes her as a "nationalist binny." She initially takes interest in Jim after learning he is from Borrigarde while at Dreadgrave's castle. She is devastated when she learns that her home had been long been taken over and turned into "New Pillock," and attempts to start a revolution there to bring back the "spirit" of Borrigarde. However, she learns that nobody is interested in revolting, and she returns to join Jim in his quest for deletion. Despite this, she tries several times to convince Jim there actually was a revolution, which Jim doesn't buy for an instant.
