- "I've got Morgana again and I've got about six of her."
- —Ronald Weasley discussing Morgan le Fay's Chocolate Frog Card[src]
Morgan le Fay, also known as Morgana, was a Dark witch who lived during the Middle Ages. She was the half-sister of King Arthur and an enemy of Merlin, and, during her lifetime, she played a role in many events. Like her half-brother, she was a monarch, ruling as queen of the island of Avalon. In addition to her knowledge of the Dark Arts, she was exceptionally talented as a Healer, and was an Animagus who could turn into a bird.[1]
Morgan le Fay would later be featured on a Chocolate Frog Card. On his first trip to Hogwarts in 1991, Ron Weasley got this card in a Chocolate Frog, but since he already owned six, he gave it to Harry Potter.[2]
[edit] Behind the scenes
