The Morrigan, was a title held by the leader of the Dark Fae in the Lost Girl television series. The position was held by a Dark Fae Leanan Sídhe named Evony Fleurette Marquise who was the leader of the Dark Fae through the first three seasons of Lost Girl. The role was played by the actress Emmanuelle Vaugier.
The history surrounding the title of The Morrigan is unknown save for the fact that the Dark Fae seem to name their elders after famous warriors implying that Morrigan was the name of a past Dark Fae warrior of some fame. The Morrigan serves as the ultimate authority in the matters of the Dark Fae and controls most matters which involve them and takes tribute from all Dark Fae under their control.
The office of The Morrigan is a reflection of the Fae that holds it, meaning that the personality of the one called The Morrigan tends to change how it is seen by the Fae at large, the relationships with the Light Fae and their leader The Ash, and other diplomatic, political, and social aspects of Fae society.
To the end of the Third Season, there was one individual who claimed the position of The Morrigan and as such this entry will cover them specifically.
The Morrigan has had an adversarial relationship with Bo and all those that call themselves Bo's friends. When she first appeared in It's a Fae, Fae, Fae, Fae World, she acted as the leader of the Dark Fae and had a great deal of mistrust with Bo, not understanding why a Succubus would not be aligned with the Dark Fae. Over time her dislike of Bo grew to the point where she used many means to attempt to remove Bo as a seeming threat to her power base among other actions which put her at odds with the Light Fae.
Throughout her appearances in the series, her goals have been to create as much trouble as possible for Bo. In doing so, she also obtained a promise from Kenzi that at some point she would collect upon. She has a shallow, self absorbed personality that masks a Fae with a great deal of power in that she is a Leanan Sídhe who has the power to absorb talent from other beings, which her human cover as a talent agent provides her a means to feed in secret, the deaths of such humans being said to be suicides or other unlucky fates.
Her final appearance was in the Third Season finale Those Who Wander in which she had been tied up, bound and gagged by Vex an an apparent overthrow in conjunction with Hale over her past actions.

Powers and Abilities
Evony Fleurette Marquise is a Leanan Sídhe, a Fae seductress who inspires artists and makes them great while feeding off their genius. She can be described as an evil muse who ends up driving the artists into madness and death. She also had the ability through her feeding on others to cause their bodies to melt into a puddle or burn away.
Her personality is self absorbed and occasionally flippant with an underlying malice when she speaks. She generally sees most other Fae as being lesser than herself and is not afraid to show this. She has a manipulative personality which she uses to exploit Fae and humans alike.
She tends to abuse human artists under her employ, stealing their royalties to service her own goals. She is quick to remind anyone she views as a threat or disrespectful of her ability, and willingness to, see them suffer when they step out of line. She rules over her domain with threats and punishments with the additional threat of her underlings or herself exacting punishment upon them.
She has an ongoing dislike of Bo, whether that is a concern that she might be overthrown by her, a fear of her, or what she may represent is not clear. She has been bested by Bo at least once in their dealings, finding herself bound and under Bo's control for a time.
She holds a claim against Kenzi for her not taking the life of Nate in the Second Season of the series. At any point in the future The Morrigan may ask of Kenzi a favor and she must perform that request.
Chief among her aides was Vex, a Mesmer Fae who acted as an enforcer for her up until the end of the second season when he caused The Morrigan to be embarrassed and was then jailed by her. After Vex assisted Bo in defeating The Garuda, she did not allow Vex to return to her employ, and used him to attempt to kill [[Bo][, Dyson, and Tamsin. Vex found his revenge at the end of the Third Season in capturing The Morrigan for Hale who was The Ash at that time.

- In Celtic folklore, leannán sí is a beautiful woman of the Aos Sí (people of the barrow or the fairy folk) who takes a human lover. Lovers of the leannán sídhe are said to live brief, though highly inspired lives. The name comes from the Gaelic words for a sweetheart, lover, or concubine and the term for a barrow or fairy-mound. The leanan sídhe is generally depicted as a beautiful muse, who offers inspiration to an artist in exchange for their love and devotion; however, this frequently results in madness for the artist, as well as premature death.
