Serpent's ability to subsume and entrap souls and Spirits within herself to empower her, coupled with Mastema's ability to commune and borrow the power of spirits more easily make them a dangerous pair of enemies.

One of the few cases of a natural soul bond with a parasite. It is, perhaps, not a good thing for someone to be so naturally in tune with one.

Mastema, bonded host to the traitorous Serpent, is a vile individual. Unlike many other hosts and their Parasite Spirits where the host is corrupted and changed to mimic a natural soul bond and affinity, Mastema and Serpent had perfect compatibility.

It was only after The Shattering that she would break out, spurred on and guided by her Moon into a broken world. The guiding moonlight would find her in the service of yet another Carian princess, Ranni of the Darkmoon.

One of the many daughters of the Raven Queen and a well known recusant against her mother's fae court, Avalon.

Morgan was a free spirit, wandering the continents and planes, leaving broken chains and vigilante justice in her wake.
