King Arthur of Camelot is in need of a hero and his knights are all out on quests. Tipped off by Merlin, Arthur wastes no time knighting Mike on the spot, christening him as Sir Mike. King Arthur immediately tasks his new Knight of the Round Table with smiting the terrible dragon.

Merlin, a magician in King Arthur's court, appears multiple times across Mike's journey through history. He serves as a recurring guide through the ages and provides Mike with the Psychic Shockwave and its upgrades.
