Merggles

Merggles are a race of aquatic Fraggles who live among the roots and limbs of the Great Tree in the Fraggle Rock episode "Beyond the Pond". Merggles are the Fraggle version of mermen and mermaids—the lower half of a Merggle's body is a fish's tail.

In "Beyond the Pond", Red Fraggle follows the Great Tree's roots to meet five Merggles:

• Mermer Merggle : The leader of the Merggles. (Steve Whitmire)
• Merboo Merggle : A prophetess, and the keeper of the vision. (performed by Kathryn Mullen)
• Merkey Merggle : A gloomy Merggle, who always sees the dark side. (Rob Mills)
• Merple Merggle : A happy Merggle, who always sees the bright side. (Nikki Tilroe)
• Mervin Merggle : A Merggle who sells hats. He captures Red, and only agrees to let her go when she agrees to buy two hats. (Jerry Nelson)
