Morgan Le Fay, more commonly referred to as The Evil, is the main antagonist of the 2023 adult animated series Unicorn: Warriors Eternal.
She is the mother of Melinda and the former wife of Merlin, who inadvertently turned into an all-powerful evil entity when Merlin had hid the fact that Melinda could use dark magic from her. Morgan becomes outraged upon discovering this, and Melinda had released her dark powers onto her, turning her into the first incarnation of Evil. It has since then incarnated throughout time serving as the eternal archfoe of Unicorn.
She is portrayed in her main/human form by Peta Johnson.
Appearance[]
The Evil doesn't seem to take on a tangible form, often appearing to be a looming blueish-green cloud of energy. Over the years, the Evil had evolved into many different forms, starting off as mindless dragon-like serpents, changing into other entities such as a cyclops-like monster and a giant canine.
Personality[]
As Morgan, the Evil appeared to be a loving mother towards Melinda and tries to remove her magic for her own good. However, according to Merlin, she has her own agenda behind what she is doing of which is currently unknown.
Upon getting transformed into the Evil, Morgan appeared to have lost her personality and becoming a mindless entity, who only lived to cause destruction and attempt to destroy humanity. However, the Evil's intelligence seemed to also grow throughout the hundreds of years Unicorn fought it as it eventually becomes intelligent enough to build steampunk technology and becomes capable of speech.
As a fox humanoid, it is a wealthy entrepreneur that runs a company called "Otto-Mation", selling machines such as robots to unsuspecting customers to cause mass destruction, and eventually kill the Unicorns.
Biography[]
Prior[]
As revealed in the fifth episode "The Past Within," the Evil was once a human woman named Morgan le Fay, who was the wife of Merlin and the mother of Melinda. Not wanting his wife to know that Melinda inherited his magical abilities, Morgan becomes enraged upon learning that she had been deceived and attempts to take Melinda's magic by force. According to Merlin, Morgan had her own intentions which was also why he kept the secret from her.
Refusing to comply, Melinda overpowers her mother unwittingly causing Morgan to incarnate into the Evil who then escapes. Distraught, Merlin blames Melinda for what had happened explaining his coldness when Melinda was nearly killed in the first episode of the series. Morgan, now the Evil, would then become the eternal nemesis of three heroes: Edred, a warrior elf; Seng, a cosmic monk, and Melinda a sorceress. After fighting in Ancient Egypt, the wizard Merlin arrives, having ventured into the future and bringing back a steam-powered robot named Copernicus to house the souls of the three heroes.
From there, the three heroes have been reincarnated throughout time to combat the Evil.
Present day[]
Now disguised as a fox woman, the Evil sends its robots to desecrate a grave containing Copernicus, but this unwittingly awakens the robot who easily dismantles the threats and heads out to awaken the three heroes. Despite this, the Evil contents itself upon the realization the new hosts are younger in comparison to their previous incarnations.
It resurrects a deceased Indian elephant named Lulu to further test the new incarnations. The elephant rampages through the square forcing the newly awakened Edred and Seng to fight against the monster. While trying to convince Emma/Melinda to help them, Emma inadvertently releases a huge burst of dark power which destroys Lulu but at the cost of her lover Winston getting injured as one of the many casualties.
In the third episode, the Evil takes advantage of Alfie/Seng's amazement and attacks him in the cosmic realm.
