History: Meggan was born near what legend claims to be
the site of an ancient British fortress that was a place of
dark sorcery. It was in part because of this legend that Meggan's
parents, who were gypsies, believed her to be a demon when she
was born. The infant Meggan was covered with fur and resembled
an animal. In actuality, Meggan was a mutant with the power
to alter her shape, and she had taken this fur-covered form
instinctively as a response to the bitterly cold weather at
the time of her birth.
Unaware of her shape-changing powers, Meggan retained her furry
form as she grew into adolescence and regarded herself as a
freak. She eventually met the costumed champion, Captain Britain,
and went to live with him and his sister, Betsy, at their ancestral
home, Braddock Manor.
The time finally came when Meggan realized she could alter her
physical appearance, whereupon she first assumed the form she
normally uses today, that of a beautiful young woman with long
blonde hair. After making this transformation, her relationship
with Captain Britain changed considerably, for they soon became
lovers.
Like Captain Britain, Meggan is a founding member of Excalibur,
a team of superhuman champions based in the United Kingdom.
Height: Variable, usually 5 ft. 7 in., 5 ft. 10 in.in
true form Weight: Variable, usually 120 lbs., 130 lbs. in true
form Eyes: Variable, usually green Hair: Variable, usually blonde Other distinguishing features: Meggan has pointed ears
in her usual and true form.
Strength level: Meggan possesses the normal human strength
of a woman of her age, height, and build who engages in moderate
regular exercise.
Known superhuman powers: Meggan is a mutant possessing
various superhuman powers. Meggan is a metamorph, altering her
physical form at will. Her facial features and overall physical
appearance often change to a degree with her mood; hence, she
might become considerably less attractive when she is deeply
depressed. She may consciously or unconsciously alter her appearance
to resemble people or even animals that she is with at the time.
Meggan can draw energy from the Earth and project it in a burst
of concussive power. Meggan possesses the power to fly, presumably
through psionically levitating herself. Meggan's life force
and superhuman powers are dependent upon the mystical forces
within the British Isles. Her powers and health will deteriorate
if she remains for too long a time outside Britain. Her health
and superhuman powers will also function normally in certain
magical realms in other dimensions.
