Background/History: Rising from Irish folklore, the triple goddess is now most often associated with war, fate and death. A gifted shapeshifter, she both appeared to and was invoked by warriors before battle. She often appeared to test a favored mortal, to see if they were worthy of her arcane gift.
As mankind modernized, as Christianity spread, The Morrigan's power narrowed. No longer able to declare sovereignty, she has also lost her association with the fertility of Ireland.
In the 90s, the rise of new-age, divine feminine, paganism revitalized The Morrigan. She chased the power to America, settling in Goodluck, where a devout believer had called to her.
Now, her dairy farm lives and dies by the strength of belief in The Morrigan, inspiring her to hew to Old Gods.

Her dairy cattle are magic - a reference to one of her oldest legends. They need less feed, produce greater quantities of milk and can be used to transfer her blessing to a mortal.
Goes by both She and They - a reference to the various names & forms she took.
Becoming something of a goddess to witches is a newer phenomenon, but she's enjoying it.

@lou-longhand : Dreamed of her the night before a battle & fled his fate. She cursed him for the defiance, and remains affronted by his cowardice to this day. Feels there is an older connection between them, but that memory has all but vanished across the years.
