  • Careful +3
  • Flashy +2
  • Forceful +2
  • Clever +1

Stunts:

  • Because I am The Bloody Nightmare I get an extra +1 bonus in addition to the normal benefits when I spend a Fate Point to invoke an Aspect or Consequence related to fear or terror.
  • Because I am an Atonement Seeking Divine Investigator I get a +2 to Carefully Create an Advantage when I am reading emotions.
  • Because I am The Goddess of Bloodshed once per session I can reduce the severity of one physical Consequence received from a deliberate attack as I see it landing on myself or someone else.
Refresh: 3
Stress: OOO
 
Mild Consequence
Moderate Consequence
Severe Consequence
Background: Morrigan is one of the Seven Purges, four Demons and three Gods who committed acts of genocide under what they thought to be legitimate orders. Though she eventually realized the lie and reported herself and the other two Gods to Eyes of Ra. It wasn’t before she had committed tens of thousands of murders. She spent fourteen hundred years in Tartarus for her crimes before Vishnu ordered her release. She doesn’t feel it was enough and has left her House for the Eyes of Ra to make sure nothing like that ever happens again.

Opinion of the Current Situation: Morrigan would be lying if she didn’t hope that Zeus was behind this situation because she’d like to send the smug rapist into Tartarus, but the reincarnated Goddess takes priority. Once Amaterasu is safe and secure, then she can begin the investigation into who, if anyone, is responsible.

Some Facts:

  • Morrigan is a trained warrior and practices channeling. She has some basic shaping training.
  • Morrigan’s medium of travel as a Goddess is laundry.
  • Morrigan is one of the rare Immortals that practices a human religion. In her case Catholicism.
  • Morrigan is one of the oldest characters on this list being over 6 million years old. Her current incarnation has been around 120 years but has already assimilated most of her memories.
  • Morrigan engages in minor shapeshifting especially to take on a terrifying visage in battle, but mostly sticks to dark-haired, dark-eyed and pale-skinned warrior woman. She generally only bothers to look attractive if someone suggests it for some diplomatic purpose.
  • One of the original playtest characters was a child of Morrigan and is a young PI in Scotland with the Doppleganger talent (and unknowingly the Prophet Talent).
    • This isn't particularly useful, but is interesting.
