| '''Merluvlee''' is a female character in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series. She always appears in the role of a fortune teller, although the exact nature of her clues varies from game to game. According to [[Wonky]], Merluvlee comes from a tribe that names people based on their profession, implying that every Merluvlee met may be a separate individual. It is possible that the aforementioned tribe is actually the [[Tribe of Ancients]]; Merluvlee expressly stated herself to be a descendant in ''[[Super Paper Mario]]''. | | '''Merluvlee''' is a character in the ''[[Paper Mario (series)|Paper Mario]]'' series.

| Merluvlee's name is a portmanteau of "[[Merlon]]" (therefore making her indirectly named after the fictional wizard [[Wikipedia:Merlin|Merlin]]) and a corruption of the word "lovely", which several characters use to describe her. A [[Dryite]]'s dialogue in [[Dry Dry Outpost]] contains a typo that refers to Merluvlee as '''Merluvee'''. Merluvlee is revealed to be 25 years old in ''[[Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door]]'' by an [[List of e-mails in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door|e-mail]] sent to Mario. | | Merluvlee's name is a portmanteau of "[[Merlon]]" (therefore making her indirectly named after the fictional wizard [[Wikipedia:Merlin|Merlin]]) and a corruption of the word "lovely", which several characters use to describe her.

| In ''[[Paper Mario]],'' Merluvlee lives in a house on [[Shooting Star Summit]], with her brother [[Merlow]]. Throughout the game, many characters comment that she is the most beautiful woman they have ever seen. Somewhat comically, the player is never allowed to see her face, because she always wears a hood. She is also notable for being the owner of the companion to the mysterious chest in Peach's castle. According to a gossip-loving Toad near [[Tayce T.]]'s house in [[Toad Town]], one of Merluvlee's hobbies is cultivating bonsai trees. | | In ''[[Paper Mario]]'', Merluvlee lives in a house on [[Shooting Star Summit]], with her brother [[Merlow]].
