I decided to do several of these despite not being asked them for the character prior because I am a clown.
So, here's some of these for Morrigan.
TW: Child abuse and transphobia.
🏳️🌈 A sexuality headcanon? - She's obviously a lesbian--I mean, she's a man-hating forest witch. Morrigan's also very aroace spec I think. I can see her being demiromantic and greyace.
🏳️⚧️ A gender headcanon? - Morrigan's a transgirl sorry not sorry. Part of this comes from the fact Oghren makes a transphobic comment to her in banter, saying, "How do we know you're actually a woman?".
I think it's also part of the reason why Flemeth's so obsessed with her; despite having another daughter who was alive at the same time for a bit (Yavana), Flemeth seemed to focus more on Morrigan. [Personally, I think Flemeth pays more attention Morrigan because that's her first trans kid--even if the attention is negative.]
Even if Flemeth had no problem with trans people, she still would tease young Morrigan about it; "Oh, what's wrong? You feel uncomfortable in your own body, little one?"
Morrigan can shapeshift to a certain extent to look more feminine, but not completely.
🧸 A headcanon about their childhood? - Morrigan was never allowed to have a single toy as a child. Flemeth would purposely take Morrigan to nearby markets and show her different toys and say, "Oh, this looks cool! Too bad you'll never have it." And when little Morrigan got fed up and stole toys, Flemeth would always find out and break them right in front of Morrigan.
👻 A headcanon about what scares them? - Despite her trying to say she prefers to be by herself, Morrigan's afraid of being alone and being abandoned. Morrigan's got pretty bad separation anxiety and will go into a full-blown panic attack if she gets separated from the rest of the group.
🎶 A headcanon about music? - No matter how many times she tries to deny it, Morrigan absolutely adores Leliana's singing. When Leliana breaks out into musical number in the middle of camp, Morrigan rolls her eyes, but on the inside, she's listening contently.
👽 A headcanon about a weird quirk of theirs? - Not a headcanon, but her quirk is the way she speaks, using terms like 'tis' and 'twas'.
💤 A headcanon about their sleep? - Morrigan has trouble getting sleep; on average, she only gets about two hours a sleep each night. Every night, Morrigan has nightmares about Flemeth and her actions--this even continued through the events of Inquisition.
🦾 A disability headcanon? - Firstly, Morrigan's autistic. She said she used to watch animals and copy their mannerisms and she basically does the same with people too. Morrigan has a hard time understanding social cues/etiquette.
Secondly, with less backing and more of a just why not headcanon, Morrigan's got a prosthetic leg--she lost her leg due to shit Flemeth pulled; though, Morrigan tries to keep it hidden from other people.
💝 A headcanon about their love language? - She'd be the kind of person to give precious little gifts here and there and then claim, "Oh, I just did it out of pity. I don't actually like you."
At one point, Morrigan got gifts for everyone in camp and left them outside of people's tents as surprises--she let everyone think the Warden did it.
💔 An angsty headcanon? - Morrigan refuses to tell anyone when she's sick or hurt. She just always acts like she's fine 100% of the time--this leads to her sicknesses and injuries getting worse.
🪢 A headcanon about their family? - When Morrigan was a child, she wished she had an older brother. Later, upon meeting Alistair, she decided to tease him as she would a brother, but he didn't take the jokes very well.
📓 A headcanon about their hobbies? - Morrigan likes to write poetry and paint in her free time as a way of coping with emotions, though she'd rather not want anyone to know she does those things or that even has emotions.
👗 A headcanon about their clothes? - Morrigan doesn't like changing to new clothes because the texture of the clothes she does have is a safe texture (along with the autism headcanon above).
🎭 A headcanon about what they lie about? - Morrigan will tell people basic details about what Flemeth did to her during her childhood, but she won't go into detail about it; she likes to lie and say what she suffered through wasn't as bad as it was.
💄 An appearance headcanon? - Morrigan's face and body are covered in burns and scars from Flemeth's actions, but she just typically hides them by shapeshifting.
🖕 A headcanon relating to anger? - When she was still living with Flemeth, Morrigan's gotten angry enough to punch a hole in the wall and she broke her hand.
😺 An animal related headcanon? - Morrigan used to play with a stray dog who hung out around near the hut when she was a child, but then Flemeth killed it--because of this experience, Morrigan seems to have a negative attitude towards dogs.
😶 A random headcanon? - (I don't know where this came from, but it just settled in my mind and now it's part of my canon.) Morrigan suffers from epilepsy and Flemeth's laughed at her seizures before.
