| | '''Merlow''' is a [[Shaman]]-like character seen only in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is [[Merluvlee]]'s younger brother (and therefore also [[Merlee]]'s younger brother, as Merlee and Merluvlee were depicted as twins in ''Paper Mario''), and he lives with Merluvlee in a large house on [[Shooting Star Summit]]. He collects [[Star Piece (Paper Mario)|Star Pieces]] and will trade rare [[Badges]] for them. Merlow seems to be very young, as his cloak seems to be too large for him and [[Goombario]] mentions wanting to play with him some day, indicating that the two are similar ages. Another indicator of Merlow's youth is his natural blond hair, as opposed to his grandfather [[Merlon]]'s white hair. |

| '''Merlow''' is a character in ''[[Paper Mario]]''. He is [[Shaman]]-like and the younger brother of both [[Merluvlee]] and [[Merlee]]. Merlow lives with Merluvlee in a large house on [[Shooting Star Summit]]. He collects [[Star Piece (Paper Mario series)|Star Pieces]] and will trade rare [[Badge]]s for them. Merlow seems to be very young, as his cloak seems to be too large for him and [[Goombario]] mentions wanting to play with him some day, indicating that the two are of similar ages. Another indicator of Merlow's youth is his natural blond hair, as opposed to his grandfather [[Merlon]]'s white hair. Merlow's name is a portmanteau of "[[Merlon]]" (or perhaps {{wp|Merlin}}) and the word "low", emphasizing on his shortness and youth. | |
| | |
| There is a letter addressed to Merlow from his father [[Merle]] in [[Shiver Snowfield]]; delivering this letter with [[Parakarry]] rewards [[Mario]] with a Star Piece.

| Merlow has the following badges available for trade:

| *'''[[Tattle]]:''' "''He's Merlow. He's about the same age as I am. I wanna play with him when we finish our adventure. I guess he trades Star Pieces for Badges. Merluvlee, who's downstairs, is his sister. He's so lucky!''"
