Mental characteristics

Personal history

Born an ilegitemate child to queen igraine pendragon and the lord of tintagel, Morgana was raised without knowing her mother as the baron's daughter in the forested countryside, living a carefree childhood.
after the death of uther pendragon with her half brother arthur taking the throne and raising the merlinian order to the role of protectors of the realm, Morgana was one of many noble born children who were sent to camelot to practice the arts of magic at the age of 10. the young morgana soon proved to be a gifted and studious student which led her to be noticed by merlin himself.
On the eve of her 13th birthday, Merlin enacted a ritual meant to ascertain her potential in the arcane arts, as well as her character. using scrying magics merlin learned and informed arthur of morgana's status as his half sister, as well as the more troubled soul he had witnessed. Merlin saw morgana's free spirited nature as well as her strong stubborn moral sense, the wizard feared that those qualities may lead her to being manipulated by the forces against he wished to wage his wars, and so passed on morgana as his apprentice.
Not being disheartened morgana kept her training, until the age of 15, when she became a Mage errant for the king. Traveling england's wilds she helped in the capture or slaying of many magical beasts, bringing the merlinian's order to the realm.
After 2 years of active service, capturing magical creatures across the land, morgana grew more and more uneasy. for each rampaging monster the errants had imprisoned, it seemed like there was a peacefull creature that her and her comerades were forced to take from it's home and lock away. As doubt gripped her heart she went to merlin for advice, wishing to hear from her mentor reassuring words. but all she recieved was the same dogma she'd read in his writing. She then turned to her brother, who she wished would be more understanding, but all she saw was a man who cared about nothing but his safety and the security of his position.
Disheartened Morgana spent that night in sleepless contemplation, until at the break of dawn, she stole away with her equippment, horse and rations into the woods.
Morgana ran through the forest, the sound of hunting dogs ringing in her ears, or perhaps in her mind? as she galloped deeper into the woods, the branches seemingly grasping her from all side, sheltering her from whoever may chase her down, until she could not know which way she came from. wandering through the deep woods, Morgana found herself in a part of the forest she'd never seen before, trees twisted and formed strange corridors, leading her through the greenery, until eventually she found a strange sight.
There in the middle of the forest a court, with a throne of sorts and stands as well, it seemed a twisted mocking vision of camelot's main hall and on it's throne sat a man, with strange alluring eyes and a skin of bark that was the day that Morgana le fay was born. The archfey was thought a ruthless enemy, a green king to match arthur's domain ruthless and coniving, but in her eyes and thus in reality, he was mearly a noble man protecting his flock.
Thus Morgana pledged herself to him, to the wild and the destruction of merlin. filled with rage and sorrow she swore that none shall live in chains anymore, and that magic shall belong to all and roam free across the land, with no man or wizard to contain it ever again.
There began a war, a real one led by human desire. the wilds now had their own will behind them, many others soon joined. from the druids who had to hide their craft in fear of persecution, to those within the order who listened to morgana's cries for dissent, 10 years of bloody war followed. Becoming a symbol herself morgana led the armies of the wild alongside The archfey and at the dawn of the new year 985, they almost achieved victory.
At the battle of camelot, morgana led her forces in breaching the castle walls and fighting for her precieved master to have the chance at finally ending the jailer merlin, however before victory could be achieved, merlin and his council cast the mutespell, silencing the rebellion, and all of magic, for one thousand years.
However, despite the mutespell's limitation, despite losing her master and despite her allies being forced back into hiding or be trapped in the spell's influence morgana never ceased. roaming the world, powered by her magical immortality, she seeked any magic she could find, warning them of the imprisonment that awaited those who won't keep in hiding, and telling them the tales of what happened to magic and the world. Despite time's march, and magic's disapearance Morgana's youth was still preserved with the archfey, who's soul she was bound to, and thus she walked the earth for 1000 years.
However, with the breaking of the mutespell in 1985, morgana has taken to her revenge with renewed vigor, for even through 1000 years of human suffering, with magic being unable to help those who needed it, she knew her chance was now. more then ever the people of the world would understand her pain, would wish to unshackle themselves from those who'd entrap them, and with the return of camelot, she must act now.

Education

Morgana was trained in the merlinian order, fininshing her studies and recieving the rank of Mage errant. Since she also accumelated a thousand years of study into what little magic remained free in the muted world, which allowed her to master many forms of the arcane.

Morality & Philosophy

Morgana sees the injustices of entraping sentient creatures by the merlinians as an historical tragedy, she believe magic must remain free and that the people of the world have a fundamental right to live in their world as it was intended, and not in this husk of it.
Further she believes that good protective magic the rule rathar then the exception, and so it can protect the people from that which may be dangerous, even if it wasn't fighting for it's freedom.
