Morrigan Aensland is a succubus from Scotland in the Darkstalkers (Vampire Hunter and Vampire Savior) video game series by Capcom. This cel depicts Morrigan in an art style originated from the game. Her white blouse, red leather pants and straight hair sans bangs is actually one of her win poses. Her wings have been converted into live bats that act as accessories.
In the video game series, Morrigan is the adopted daughter of Belial Aensland. When she was born, Morrigan was extremely powerful, so much so that Belial sealed away part of her power, one-third in himself to be returned upon his death, and one-third in a pocket dimension, which eventually became a being of its own, a succubus named Lilith. Without knowing this, Morrigan grew up and found her life in the Aensland castle dull. So she visited the human world many times to look for some kind of entertainment.
After she returned from the human world, she was told that Belial had died and that she is the next successor to the throne of the Aensland family. Although she is rightfully the ruler of Makai, she keeps avoiding her responsibilities and continues her life as before. But when Jedah created the Majigen, she and her castle were pulled into Jedah's dimension. Sensing Lilith, Morrigan sets off hoping to find some sort of enjoyment. After she meets Lilith, the two become one again.
The Night Warriors: Darkstalker's Revenge anime OAV featured Morrigan more like her game appearances, portraying her as a semi-innocent demon world inhabitant, a member of the royal family who was more interested in going to Earth than in her duties. The picture of idle wealth, she would often leave at will out of sheer boredom, much to the frustration of her guardians, elder men of the Aensland family. Morrigan's role as a hero was a focus, with her activities as a succubus downplayed. Although the OVA depicts Donovan Baine as the main hero of the story, Morrigan was also a little more stoic and pretentious than her video game persona.
