Morrigan Monedula

**Morrigan Monedula** (モリガン・モネドゥラ) is a western jackdaw-type Houtenian and a major character appearing in The Disappearance of Black and White, as well as a character appearing in Torinokoshi.

She is the Don of the Crow Mafia.

## Appearance

**Morrigan** has pale skin with bored looking grey eyes. She has short, messy black hair with a white underside which reaches around the neck. She wears a black shirt with rolled back sleeves, black gloves, black striped pants, a dusty red waistcoat with matching feathers on her shoulders, as well as a white tie and black dress shoes with white spats. She also has a long set of black and red wings, which seem to function also as a cape.

## Personality

Morrigan is described as being a well known and highly respected, yet feared, individual. A very stoic and mysterious crow. In illustrations she does not seem easily fazed, even with Friga pointing a gun at her on multiple occasions. She may also have a softer side, as evidenced by the fact she is said to babysit Raakugaki.

## Background

Morrigan is the don, or leader, of the crow mafia, which offers services of protection and assassination and often keeps the general order of Memento Forest in line. It is stated she used to live in Houtengoku. She also owns a bar somewhere and babysits Raakugaki while there.

Her official profile states she used to smoke, but seems to do it less so after being given a substitution of a Lollipop. It is likely implied that Callalily was the one to do so. Though some illustrations show her still smoking, even with the Lollipop present, likely indicating she hasn't fully quit.

The **western jackdaw** (*Coloeus monedula*), also known as the **Eurasian jackdaw**, **European jackdaw**, or simply **jackdaw**, is a passerine bird in the crow family. Found across Europe, western Asia and North Africa, it is mostly resident, although northern and eastern populations migrate south in winter.
