The Morrigan is a Celtic goddess of war, fate, death, and sovereignty from Irish mythology. She appears in the great Irish epics as a shape-shifting figure who can take the form of a crow, a wolf, an eel, or a beautiful woman. She is both a single goddess and sometimes a triple goddess, embodying the three aspects of war: frenzy, prophecy, and death.
