Morgan Le Fay - Tumblr Posts
alright so I just finished all six books in the school for good and evil and my brain in buzzing with au's already. like I kind of wish that Morgan le Fay was in there. like it would be hilarious that the sister to the great king Arthur with how he is portrayed in the book has a this crazy prankster of a sister just running around and causing chaos. I know a lot of people see her as a evil sorceress but I like her as a loony tunes like villein or a trickster. witch makes her off screen redemption arc extremally funny. like in the original(not sge) green knight story the entire purpose that he is there is because Morgan thought if the green night got his head cut off Guinevere would see it and just die. like that is so stupid, but I love it!
Edit: spelling and contradiction correction
I have some very important headcanons about sge and I need to get them out now.
So you know how Wendy darling Is horts mom. No well she is, and I find that really interesting especially since horts dad was a part of hooks crew and after hooks death was second in command and Peter Pan is credited with killing horts dad, his name is apparently George scourie, although George is Wendy’s dads name so I don’t think that is right so I’m renaming him Will. Now i think that some how after there fairytale Wendy took over hooks ship and became the new captain introducing real historical piracy instead of hooks dictator style. Wendy and Peter become enemies and Will is her second(first mate). So when Wendy can’t return to neverland Peter kills her husband. Wendy ends up separated from the people she loves and because I love drama she is pregnant with her and George’s second child.
First some math. The story is roughly set around 1904 but I’m saying it’s 1906 and Wendy is 13 same as Peter, when we see Peter in the books I interpret him to be around 50 years old. So we will say that 40 years have passed, this means that for Wendy it’s 1946 the year after ww2 when she finally makes it back.
So timeline, in 1906 the Peter Pan story takes place, after the story Wendy and her brothers travel between their world and Neverland.
1909: Wendy gets really mad at Peter and storms off meeting Will(scourie) the newest member of hooks crew(he’s one year older than Wendy) they don’t start a romance but become fast friends. They teach each other things like Scourie teaches Wendy how to fight and everything about being a pirate and ships. Wendy teaches Scourie math and philosophy (as those are his favorite) as well as the history of pirates in her world. This also starts Wendy putting into question the whole concept of Evers and Nevers and confronting both her own bies in her world and neverland, as well as finding and understanding the failings of the system.
1911:on the day Wendy and Scourie finally get together Peter finds out about Wendy and Scourie and because this Peter is a incel he decides that in the middle of a fight with Captain Hook in order to distract hook he exposes them. Hook is enraged by this and goes to kill Scourie but Wendy jumps in and duels hook and actually ends up killing him. Because Wendy killed hook she becomes the new captain of the jolly Rodger. Peter initially starts talking to Wendy about how he knew she could do it and trying to manipulate her into coming back and dumping Scourie and how she should’ve never been with him because she’s an ever and he’s a never. But Wendy doesn’t believe in that and she has seen that the divide between Evers and Nevers isn’t real and is steeped in classism and corrupt ideas. While Peter was talking Wendy was frozen almost unable to speak but her brothers come over and snap her out of the trance and both back her up when she accepts being captain and takes control of her crew and ship chasing Peter off the ship.
1917: Wendy gets a new quartermaster named Sasha
1920: Mr. Smee retires and Scourie becomes Wendy’s first mate and John becomes the doctor. In there home world John was a medic during ww1
1922: Michael went to culinary school and is a chef back home and the cook on the ship.
1925: Wendy and Scourie get married Michael is the maid of honor and John and another crew member named Bonnie are brides maids, Sasha officiates.
1930: threw out all of this Peter has been fighting Wendy and her crew off and on threw out the years and falsely blames them for him aging. Hort is born named Horace “Hort” George Scourie Darling. Hort doesn’t know his full name just the nickname since his dad died when he was young and Scourie was really depressed after Wendy was taken and had a hard time talking about her, Hort was to young to remember this and was left to assume a lot of things about his mom.
1933: Wendy when pregnant with her second baby she and her brothers are forced to return home due to a curse Peter had someone put on them. She names her daughter Willa Mary Scourie darling.
1937:Scourie is killed by Peter and hort is taken in by Sasha until he goes to school, Sasha isn’t very motherly.
1946: during the last ever after Morgan le fey crashes the meeting at Guinevere and Lancelot’s place with her daughter and ends up getting frustrated with some of the fairy tale heroes that are there. So she decides to bring her own, Alice (who never left wonderland and had also traveled through time when she first fell into wonderland is age 18), the Gerda and kai from the original snow queen (in their early 50s and happy together), and the darling family. Later on Clara from the nutcracker shows up but that’s for another post. Wendy notices hort first and starts hugging him and it’s a very tearful reunion until she calls him Horace and he gets confused for a second there. Sophie probably mention something about how the Wendy darling is horts mother and he never told her, while also questioning it because she in this part of the books isn’t able to understand how a hero like Wendy could be married to horts pirate father, just wait till she finds out that Wendy is a pirate captain.
Willa is also confused as while she knew she had a dad and brother she just assumed both were dead. And when Wendy starts looking for and asking about Scourie she finds out that Peter killed him and is devastated. With terrible timing Peter walks into the room and Wendy attacks him crying about her husband. Both Morgan and Merlin have to restrain her and Michael(who ready to help his sister torture and/or kill Peter, John was planning the escape plan and how get away with the murder). The three darlings swear not to fight Peter until after they save the world.
During the pair-up’s instead of pairing up with hort her son she helps lance with Tedros since she is an amazing leader. Michael ends up with dot and red also bonding over similar tastes in men and starts swapping recipes with red. John and Kai end up talking to Guinevere, Gerda pairs with hort and Peter and teaches hort some detective skills. Alice joins Cinderella and Agatha but keeps giving advice in riddles which Agatha finds confusing.
A small side tangent the snow queen is not working with Rafal as Gerda and Kai don’t defeat or confront her she just leaves Kai to die because she got bored, she might show up in Camelot years head cannons.
None of Morgan’s hero’s went to the school for good and evil and most don’t fall into the traditional divide of ever and never. They join the final battle and afterwards Wendy and John are asked to teach at the school and Michael gets a job as cook. They accept so they can stay near hort.
That’s enough for now but I do want to add more to this.
YAY!!! I didn’t do my homework last night and instead cleaned up a oc design!!
So here she is!! she is part of my sge au and more world building!
The Concert Hall
the Sugar Plum Fairy is the ceremonial king or queen of the sugar kingdom along with being the conductor and protector of the concert hall. as conductor they make and maintain the stages as well as conducting special performances
the concert hall is an institution similar to the school in the books.
but instead of the storian it holds the maestro, it controls the concert hall and many smaller stages, halls, and amphitheaters across the land.
the maestro is in its oldest form a oval music box with silver details and two small figures of two girls dancing inside.
the maestro records both art and history, it collects and records any stage play, song, or performance that is performed on any of its stages along with telling history threw any medium on stage. it will then replay or performer an act when requested.
ballet is especially popular in the sugar kingdom due to the nutcracker telling the story of the sugar plum fairy before Alexzander named Antonietta and Clara
while it is possible for sugar plum fairy's to be related its not that common. Antonietta is the mother of Alexzander and she was 8 months pregnant with him during the ballet, she had a extremely difficult pregnancy even before the rat king that completely destroyed all her energy, that's how she got captured.
the Sugar plum fairy is chosen by the maestro 10 years before the currents retirement and crowned the Sugar plum prince, princess, or hair. when chosen they are no younger than 15 and no older than 20
Sugar Plum Princess Anastasia Le Fey!!
(Ooooh fancy text!)
Anastasia is the eldest child of Morgan Le Fey and the current sugar plum fairy Alexzander
she has 8 siblings
Anastasia's full name and title is The Sugar Plum Princess Anastasia Gwendalynn Le Fey-Tchaikovsky III (what a mouthful) but she goes by Nastya
she is 3 days older than Tedros and will never let him forget it when she used to visit camalot as a child.
when visiting camalot her mother would leave her with Tedros and his nanny when messing with Arthur. she also would dress her daughter is simple play clothes instead of the major finery of the sugar kingdoms court. this has the unintended consequence of Tedros not knowing his cousin is a princess and just thinks she live in whatever run down location he thinks Morgan lives is.
i love making Tedros a dumbass
she has a baton that works like a magic wand
very intelligent and great at school but bad with people
her two best friends are the daughter of the queen of hearts and the daughter of the black swan and white swan (yes i'm making them lesbians)
she is close with her aunt Clara
i want more lesbians the nutcracker is a lady and Clara is useless around her, the nutcracker is an idiot and has low self esteem so she was as clueless as Percy Jackson
at first glance she could be a guy but she is defiantly a girl everyone gets it wrong even gods apparently(the maestro)
“Oh my sunshine, my loved sunshine… warm my face when the sky comes down… Your heart doesn't know, dear, how much love you give me… God, I ask you, chase away all the clouds…”

So I want to make a Roleplay server an idea I have for an Arthurian Legends group rp.
So the story is that the citizens of Camelot were all reincarnated and, due to the Lady of the Lake finding them, all 'woke up'. Now with competing memories of themselves in the mediaeval and modern era, they work together to find a balance between the memories and hopefully thrive together in peace.

Rules:
- This will take place on Discord
- These are characters with a certain personality, appearance, etc. So please respect the original
- Make sure you chose a character you can actually play
- Please use 3rd person/ narrator perspective and paragraph formatting when roleplaying
- Comment with who you want to play so I can send you the discord link
Here is the list of characters:
This scene this scene this scene this scene undoes all my domestication at once. What motivated Morgan to destroy king Arthur so viciously? What motivated Morgan to sacrifice everything she had (including personhood, happiness and life) to rule a country that hated her? What could lead a single person to take such drastically different paths in each iteration?
That's easy. While their methods are different, the goal was the same; Morgan- every Morgan- genuinely, profoundly loved Britain. And Morgan- every Morgan- was rejected by Britain at every turn.
Morgan doesn't give a shit about her ruling right. In the lostbelt, she would have been perfectly fine with Mab and/or Cnoc taking things over. In panhuman history, she didn't even try to rule Camelot after the fall of Camlann. The one thing the one thing the ONE thing Morgan wants, above everything is a home. But the only way for Britain to survive in the lostbelt was by her becoming a tyrant. And the only shot she had in phh was by stopping Mystery from being driven out of the island- ie, by stopping King Arthur as she brought forth the age of man.
Don't get me wrong. Phh Morgan is a bitch and a motherfucker. But when you see her side of the story as "I am desperately trying to not get evicted" suddenly her actions make a lot more sense. From her perspective, she is being driven out, chased away from the one place she's ever known- where to? The reverse side of the world, a land of fairies, when she herself is partially human? To stay in this world, to become a witch, shunned by all, as Beryl's story tell us?
Lostbelt Morgan and phh Morgan are two very different people, because they have different experiences, and because (according to her profile) losbelt Morgan is much older and as such chilled out a lot on the whole death and murder thing. But if you were to ask who is Morgan? What is the common thread, the core of her character you will find in every world? then here is your answer:
Morgan is an incredibly ruthless person, capable of the most virtuous acts and the most intense cruelty for her goals.
Morgan, truly, sincerely, loved Britain.
Morgan does not belong anywhere.

Arthurian Figures (2/7): Morgan Le Fay
"Born of the sea"
This scene from chapter 8 of @alkalinefrog 's "The lights of Avalon" kept bouncing inside of my head and I would've gone insane if I didn't draw it, so here it is! Ta-da!
Also, don't look too closely at the ships, all the budget went into the giant lady in the sky.
no thoughts? more like all the thoughts, and they're very full of meliodas and aleron
Redrawing possessed Claire💜💛
Ehy guys I just dropped the first chapter on AO3 (below is the link, but if you want you can also read it here on Tumblr)
Hope you guys enjoy it!
Lullaby-(Prologue)
In the beginning, there were trolls, magical beings born from the hearts of special stones and become alive by forces unknown to us, and humans, devoid of any kind of magic.
In time, these supernatural forces that we think of as magical, crept into the hearts of humans and thus wizards were born... But wizards were not well liked by either humans or trolls and only a few of them were accepted in King Arthur's court, two of whom were Merlin and Morgana.
Merlin was very powerful and worked for King Arthur following his every order, but Morgana... No, she was a real rebel. She found trolls to be wonderful creatures, unlike her king, and believed that they had just as much right to live on earth as human beings. Perhaps that is why she sided with Gunmar, a powerful troll born from the heart of a rotten Heartstone from within, certainly not the kindest of trolls or the most tolerant of the sorceress's human nature, which he by habit calls "fleshbag," but still smart enough to recognize great potential in her.
The two had a plan: to create eternal night, so that trolls, vulnerable to sunlight, could live on the surface without fear of being brushed by the sun's rays, but to do this, Morgana needed to create spies who would bring information to both her and Gunmar and who could mix among humans without being conspicuous. And that is what happened: Gunmar ordered the Gumm-Gumms to raid every troll village, capturing the cubs and killing those who opposed his rule. Many baby trolls were captured during those bloody slaughters and many more died as a result of that unrelenting violence. The baby trolls were thrown into cages and kept segregated in the deepest darkness of the caves, away from the light and their families.
The cage cave was large, very large, and cold. The humidity could freeze the stone skin of the little prisoners and scratch their wills better than whatever torture their torturers had in servitude for them. Not seeing the starry sky, being far from their families, and the knowledge that they would never again be able to taste the flavor of freedom often made them beg to be killed there and then, so as not to further prolong the torture that, without the sensor of passing days, seemed endless.
The Gumm-Gumm often enjoyed torturing, beating and abusing them, but no hero in shining armor would come to their rescue....
The "loveless," as they were called by their tormentors, would all die of starvation, hunger and fear after endless and unspeakable tortures, and only death, their friend and salvation, would come to grant them sweet eternal rest.
This went on for years. Every now and then a cub would be taken out of its cage never to return, and it only withered those little hearts that had now lost all hope as far as an escape or a possible return to their villages was concerned.
That was the case for everyone, including the Izit cub, a race of trolls accustomed to living in the thickest forests under the starry sky. A tenacious specie, but too weak to be able to escape the clutches of Gunmar and his army.
The little guy had lost so much weight that his arms were as thin as bone, and the bright spots on his skin that once characterized his coat had faded over time, blending with the dark blue that covered most of his body. His horns, still just small stone lumps on his head, trembled from the frost along with his tusks on that dark, cold night.
He was hungry, but there was no food for him. There was hardly any.
Looking around he could make out fellow prisoners in the cages hanging from the ceiling and those on the ground like his own. All were huddled together, some asleep, some crying, and still others seemed not even to be breathing, perhaps dead for days.
One of the few moments of respite for the Loveless.
The Izit cub tried to warm his paws by blowing warm air on them, but his breath was reduced to a gasp. So, trembling, he clutched his knees to his chest and hid his face against the cold stone skin.
He remained like this for a long time, until a song rang through the air.
The notes were sweet, the voice singing to her melodious.
Little Izit strained his long ears and listened intently; it was not the first time he had heard that voice, yet, each time it caused him a strange sense of curiosity and surprise.
With the witch's song also came light. A faint light of course, but still a light.
Many trolls raised their heads in search of that spark in the dark, others fled into the darkness, aware of what was about to happen: there was only one reason why the light chose to come and visit the captives, and it was nothing good.
Only one among the hundred or so awake cubs remained still: the Izit.
The woman, continuing to chant, moved forward looking ahead. She did not seem particularly interested in the contents of the cages or in assessing how Gunmar's prisoners were doing, rather she seemed serene. She kept murmuring the notes of a song in a language the little trolls had a hard time chewing: human.
The witch advanced until she passed the cage of little Izit, who meanwhile dared not look up or move even a muscle. He would have liked to see the light, but to what end? It would only remind him how much he missed the freedom and the starry sky that he had so loved to look at when things were not yet so hopeless.
The footsteps suddenly ceased and with them the divine singing.
There was a clang of metal and the cage door opened.
Not even at that moment did little Izit look up. It was only when a hand was extended toward him and the smell of living flesh permeated his nostrils that he let his four bright eyes wander until they met Morgana's green ones.
She was beautiful. The red hair, the thin lips, the gentle smile... she was so bright.
"Hey little one..." She whispered, cautiously. She tried to caress his face, but Izit's pet retracted his head slightly, startled by Jade's hand.
"I will not hurt you..." The woman continued in a melodious voice.
How could a voice sound so sweet?
"How long have you been here?"
The puppy did not answer, but his eyes spoke for him: He did not remember; he had forgotten what it was like to be brought to that place and thrown into a cage, he had forgotten what his name was and what his parents looked like.
His mind was a blank slate, perfect for what the witch was looking for.
Morgana's gaze softened incredibly, giving way on her face to an even warmer smile.
"Come here..."
The woman's arms picked up the troll's slender little body and lifted him effortlessly. He offered no resistance; after all, if his fate was really to disappear as the other "Loveless" before him had done, he might as well go along with it. Even if he had wanted to, he would not have had the strength to fight anyway.
As the witch stepped away from the cages, walking between two massive trolls with a creepy iron mask on their faces, she stroked Izit's head, running a hand through the blue hair and feeling the still-developing horns.
"Now that you have me, you will no longer be alone." She whispered into his animalistic ears. The troll cub snuggled up to her and let her song lull him as his eyelids grew heavier. Although he was afraid, Morgana's presence helped calm him and for a moment he wondered if indeed that witch would be able to make him feel loved again.
And so it was: Morgana gave that puppy all the love that only a mother can give.
She fed him, gave him a name, a warm bed, educated and trained him...
And then... She slaughtered him.
She broke his bones, changed his nature and made him unrecognizable in the eyes of the other Izit.
She transformed him into something that nature would never have combined: an impure troll, capable of walking among men in the sunlight.
She transformed him.
She turned him into a changeling.
Okay but real talk, in the very early stories of King Arthur and Merlin, Morgan Le Fay (who was the basis for Morgana in the BBC series), was characterized as a benevolent enchantress who helps Arthur. It is only in later versions of the story when, primarily due to sexism, Morgan is said to be evil (and in love with Merlin, but that’s a whole other story). This means, that there was absolutely NO reason that Morgana in BBC Merlin had to become evil. They could have just as easily brought back the ORIGINAL idea of a benevolent sorceress who helps Arthur!
