History

Morgan le Fey

Allegedly, two islands remained of Atlantis after it sank. These island did not sink until thousands of years later. One of these islands, called Avalon, had a member of its royalty named Igraine. Igraine had a daughter named Morgan, who went to Britain with Myraddin-later Merlin-when Avalon sank.

Protesting the conversion of Britain to Pauline Christianity, Morgan opposed her half-brother, King Arthur Pendragon. Morgan attempted to used the Darkhold and was possessed by Chthon.

Later, when Merlin and the Black Knight went off to battle Morgan, a mutant Nordheimr Vanir impersonated Merlin, and Sir Percival was slain by Mordred. Morgan herself was imprisoned within her castle.

In modern times Morgan's astral form has battled the Avengers. She briefly altered the world to her own twisted version with the team serving as her Queen's Vengeance.

In Mighty Avengers 9 it is revealed that Doom came back in time to ask for her help in defeating the Avengers. During his many visits they also became lovers.
