Editing Merrow (section)

==Dungeons & Dragons==
In [[Dungeons & Dragons]], Merrows traditionally fall into that "take a surface monster and put it underwater" approach to design, ala the [[koalinth]]. In this case, the classic D&D merrow is a water-breathing [[ogre]] that terrorizes the seas, a depiction that [[Pathfinder]] has preserved. Much like the Koalinths, the Merrow wanted to be nice and start a civilization with friendly ties to other races. And, like with the Koalinth, the bastard Sea Elves decided to attempt genocide on them and destroyed their civilization as well, turning the Merrow into revenge-obsessed raiders as well.

In 5th edition D&D, however, merrows were changed into a deformed race of ugly, evil merfolk who were driven mad and corrupted by unwittingly becoming worshippers of the [[Demon Prince]] [[Demogorgon]].
