## **Character Info**

Morrigan Aensland is a succubus and the head of the Aensland family. However her power was too great for her to control so her adoptive father Belial split her soul in three in order to protect her. After Belial’s death, the part of Morrigan’s soul that he protected merged back to her, increasing her power and just in time for an attack by Jedah Dohma and his domain. During that struggle Morrigan encountered the final piece of her soul, a sentient being known as Lilith, and after the two merged Morrigan was finally whole. Despite her power and being the ruler of Makai, Morrigan still has a tendency to avoid her duties and seek out the various pleasures that life has to offer. She is a succubus after all!

## **General Information**

### **Entrance**

A dark portal will be on the ground surrounded by bats. Morrigan will rise up out of the portal with her arms crossed as the bats fly off.

### **Kirby Hat**

Kirby will have small versions of Morrigan’s head wings coming off the side of his head.

### **Taunts**

**Up Taunt:** Morrigan will place one hand on her hip as she flips her hair with the other and says, “Don’t bore me now.”

**Down Taunt:** Lilith will appear behind Morrigan and lean forwards to whisper something in Morrigan’s ear. The pair will smirk and laugh at a shared joke about how pitiful Morrigan’s opponents are.

**Side Taunt:** Morrigan will bend forwards to the side and attempt to… distract her opponents with her appearance, and chuckle as she does so.

### **Victory Poses**

1. Morrigan will sit on a swarm of flying bats, as if they are a throne, as she sips on a wine glass.
2. Bats will float out and fly around Morrigan as she spins through the air and says, “You’re far too weak to satisfy me.”
3. Morrigan will laugh as she flies out onto the screen surrounded by bats. Morrigan will give a wink right towards the player before flying up and away.

## **Moveset**

### **Standard Special**

**Soul Fist:** Morrigan will gesture forward with her fist as a snake-like skull surrounded by a purpley-yellow aura flies forward from her fist. Morrigan can send two Soul Fists out fairly quickly back-to-back, but must wait a couple seconds before she can send out a third. The skulls do decent damage, but are the greatest when it comes to knockback due to their spammy nature.

### **Side Special**

**Cryptic Needle:** One of Morrigan’s arms will transform into a demonic looking needle, not dissimilar to Corrin’s arm when they use their Side Special. Morrigan’s arm will then extend at a medium pace and will halt when he hits something solid. If Morrigan hits another fighter she’ll deal three hits of damage (after the initial impact) as both are locked into place during the attack before they are knocked away. This attack is easily blockable by shields and other attacks making it risky to use.

### **Up Special**

**Shadow Blade:** One of Morrigan’s wings will turn into a sharp blade as she jumps up and uses her wing like an uppercut punch which knocks opponents up into the air with Morrigan as she rises through the air. If the button is just tapped then Morrigan only goes a short distance up into the air, but holding down the input as the attack happens will increase the distance of her uppercutting jump.

### **Down Special**

**Harmonious Spear:** Morrigan will stretch her arm out and create an orb of dark energy in front and just above her. After about a second, a spear as long as Link will quickly just out from the orb downwards at a diagonal angle. If you hold down the Down Special input and then tilt the control stick forwards the orb will fly forwards like a bat allowing Morrigan to hit from a distance. When you let go of the Special button, the orb will stop moving and instantly jut out its spear to attack.

### **Final Smash**

**Darkness Illusion:** Morrigan’s counterpart Lilith will appear one full character-width away from Morrigan. If no opponent is between them then the duo will pout in disappointment and Lilith will disappear. However if there is an opponent there then the pair will both high kick the opponent and launch them up into the air. Morrigan and Lilith will follow as the two of them unleash a series of attacks on the opponent with each attack. The pair will punch, kick, whip their hair, attack with spikes, and even use Soul Fists all in complete sync with each other. The assault will end with Morrigan and Lilith striking with a downwards crescent kick which sends the opponent plummeting straight down as Morrigan is returned to her starting position.

### **Extra Skill**

**Succubus Tease:** Morrigan will lean forwards a bit and wink before blowing a kiss as a little pink heart flies from her lips a short distance before it disappears into pink dust. If this heart manages to hit an opponent they’ll take a minor 1% damage and have their left and right controls swapped for about 4 seconds. This heart also counts as a projectile which means it can be reflected and sent back to Morrigan to scramble her own controls instead.

## **Unique Traits**

Morrigan has an extra midair jump and can use her Cryptic Needle to cling to walls.
