==Summary==
Morrigan Aensland is a protagonist from the Marvel vs. Capcom series. Known for her voluptuous figure and titillating clothing, she is a soul-consuming succubus and head of the Aensland House, one of the three major houses of the demon world of Makai. Despite such an occupation, Morrigan often abandons her dull duties in search for excitement in the human world. Even so, she is a benevolent ruler, doing anything to protect her homeland. Furthermore, she is not a malicious force, having gone out of her way to show genuine concern in keeping humanity safe from threats that put their very existence at risk.
Morrigan would soon find herself summoned forth intpthe Marvel Universe by Professor Xavier help take down the murderous villain known as Onslaught. Although she was sent home afterwards, it was not the end of her interactions with the residents of this universe. The sky pirate known as Ruby Heart would enlist Morrigan as well as several others from Marvel and Capcom's worlds to aid in the battle against Abyss. After successfully taking down the mysterious threat, she seemingly became friends with Spider-Man, taking a picture with the superhero.
Morrigan would go on to take part in the defeat of Galactus, and join The Resistance against Ultron-Sigma when the latter threatened the merged worlds of Marvel and Capcom, as well as the Makai World.
