Merlot is a Lugia, the lady and caretaker of Castle Draclugia. Like most legendary pokemon, rumors abound about her: From her age, weight, and dietary habits to other more scandalous secrets involving her servants and backroom deals with the local guild leaders, Merlot is a riddle wrapped in an enigma inside a fashionable velvet cape. All rumors about her being a vampire have been confirmed as false. Though, it is true that she loves Dragon-type Pokemon and dressing them up as maids, for whatever reason.

Background
During Chuck's interview, he discovered that as a young child, Merlot only had a single friend: a noble Marowak, having disappeared long, long ago. Beyond that, no one knows much about her early life, as she's known to be at least a couple of centuries old and there are no known reliable sources for that timeframe (outside of perhaps Merlot's library, or Merlot herself).
Merlot has lived in Castle Draclugia for her entire life. Usually, she keeps to herself and stays out of outside affairs, sending her servants to do errands for her when necessary. Throughout her life, she's collected an assortment of helpers who usually end up staying with her for the rest of their lives, by choice. Despite not needing the funds, Merlot charges a toll for usage of her castle as a passageway to Sapling Village.
At the moment, her most trusted servants are Udon and Magnolia. Coincidentally, their lives were both saved by Merlot prior to their servitude.
Before PK's ascension to becoming a Guild Leader, she had a brief encounter with Merlot. After having failed to scale the castle undetected, Merlot had her imprisoned briefly. During this time, she quickly and easily became friends with Merlot's maids, Udon and Soba. They urged Merlot to reconsider keeping PK captive. They succeeded, PK was released, and she and Merlot parted ways on amicable terms.
Mission 2
Prior to Mission 2, Merlot seemed to spontaneously decide to kidnap villagers from Sapling Village. It was later revealed that she was in grief, thinking that her trusted Magnolia had passed away. Angry and unable to accept the fate of her lovely maid, she wanted to fill the castle with the presence of Pokemon that would help fill the hole in her heart. It made her transactions with the Merchants even more difficult than they would have been otherwise. Happily, a Rescuer team revealed that Magnolia was not dead, but she had merely been frozen due to an encounter with Slasher. She allowed the kidnapped Pokemon to return to their hometown afterward.
Event 3
Slasher approached Merlot near the end of Event 3, exclaiming that the Merchants had stolen property from her. She dismissed them as soon as she recalled Shroomsworth, citing that he wouldn't do such a thing.
