.:Family:. Half sister of Morgana LeFey. Child of Gorlois and Vivienne.

.:History:.
Morgause is the half-sister of Lady Morgana Pendragon, ward of Uther Pendragon. She was born into one of the noble houses of Camelot, the house of Gorlois. Her mother was Vivienne, the wife of Gorlois. Morgause inherited her powers from Vivienne and with her inheritance she became very powerful.
Despite being Gorlois' daughter, Uther ordered Morgause to be killed with all the other magical children, however he did not kill her half-sister Morgana, a baby at the time, because Morgana was his daughter.

For unknown reasons, Gaius was asked to smuggle Morgause, a child at the time, out of Camelot. He gave her to the high priestesses of the Old Religion. As Gaius did so, he swore an oath to never reveal his actions to anyone. Uther was led to believe that Morgause had died, killed when she had been supposed to. Morgause was helped by the high priestesses for all of her childhood and for a good majority of her life. She learned many spells and manipulated them for evil.

Morgause studied magic for many years, eventually becoming a very powerful sorceress. She came to Camelot never hinting at what she wanted there. But some might say she wanted revenge.
