Who is Meggan?

Origin Origin Meggan received her powers from the time she was born and her unusual appearance was startling to her gypsy family. Born during a blizzard her body's natural response to the cold was to grow fur over her entire body. Her family hid her away in their wagon but rumours of her spread quickly through the caravan. The people imagined her a demon with wings, fangs and red eyes so Meggan took on that appearance. Confined to the wagon with only the television for company she never learned to read or write. In her late teens, Great Britain was hit by a reality-warping wave by Sir James Jaspers . Meggan was separated from her family and put into a concentration camp and she never saw her family again. Jaspers was defeated and reality returned back to normal with majority of the people forgetting that the wave ever happened.
