Famous Spellcasters: Ursula and Morgana

Name: Ursula aka "The Sea Witch" and "Vanessa", Morgana
World: Earth aka "Disney's Little Mermaid"
Spells: Unknown.
Magical Items: Shell Amulet (Ursula).

Ursula and Morgana are the daughters of the Lady Cecailia (Human-Octopus Hybrid) and Lord Neptune. Ursula was the favorite of the two. Ursula was smart, ambitious, and gifted in the magical arts. When Ursula was old enough she went to go live in Atlantica and soon became a powerful member of the Royal Court, where her half-brother King Triton ruled. However, she longed to become Queen of Atlantica. Using her dark arts she attempted to take King Triton's place and failed against his might with his Magical Trident of the Seven Seas. Unwilling to kill his half-sister, she was banished from the kingdom.

Alone with her pets eels, Flotsam and Jetsam, she soon found a home in the outskirts of Triton's Kingdom. Within a dark undersea trench she made a home within the bones of a Leviathan. There she plotted her revenge and slowly devising ways of ruing Triton's Atlantica.Her pets helped by luring poor unfortunate souls in desperate need of magic to her. She would bargain with them, assisting them in there wishes but at a terrible price most did not know. Soon her home was surrounded by the cursed Atlanticans who made pacts with her, in there new form as withered anemone. She finally saw her chance when one of Triton's daughter foolishly made a bargain with her. She almost gained control of the Sevens Seas and Atlantica, but the courage of Ariel's true love Prince Eric put an end to this when he impaled her bloated form on the bow of a ship.
Although she was killed, rumors persist that she may have escaped death.


Morgana on the other finally grew tired of her mother and ran away from home shortly after Ursula had become a member of the Royal Court. She headed far away too the north and made her home within the Arctic. Although never good with traditional magic, she did discover that she had a special ability which tapped into the powers of darkness and shadow. She soon hard her own minions, a vicious shark named Undertow, and two Manta's named Cloak and Dagger. However she never got the change to show Ursula since she was killed by Prince Eric.Furious she attacked the couple at the their daughter's presentation. Luckily King Triton was there to thwart her plans.

Years later she had her chance for revenge, as the young Melody was curious about her heritage. Like her mother Ariel, she was curious and headstrong and soon met Morgana. She tricked Melody into stealing the Trident of the Seven Seas from Atlantica. She almost succeeded where her sister had failed, but Ariel and her grand-father managed to defeat her. Again unwilling to harm his family, King Triton imprisoned her within an ice block in her Arctic lair.
