* AdaptationalVillainy: In the games, while a demon, she's genuinely friendly and sees humans as more fascinating than a food source. And even then, she prefers dreams and fulfilling her desire for excitement than souls. The comic instead depicts as the more typical succubus, draining the souls of men by a ForcefulKiss and show general disregard for people's lives. Her travels to the human world are also given a darker depiction, showing she's been going to the human world enough to know about human culture to use it at her advantage (she fakes being a homeless widow immigrant in the first issue to trick a man and infiltrates a train to travel to Romania in the sixth issue).

* KarmaHoudini: Morrigan spends most of the comic going around the human world killing people yet not only does she get away with everything she does but also has everything she wanted done. Demitri is killed by Donovan and Anita and she proves her worth as queen of makai to her father. The one downside is that the missing part of her power (Lilith) is been stolen by Jedah... and even that gets fixed at the end of the ''VideoGame/StreetFighter'' [[ComicBook/StreetFighterVsDarkstalkers crossover]].

* NotSoWellIntentionedExtremist: Morrigan justifies draining human souls by saying she's taking them from lives of suffering and disappointment by putting their souls on state of bliss.
