In the fictional world of Warhammer Fantasy, Morathi is the mother (and, it is hinted in the Dark Elves army book, consort) of Malekith, and the second wife of Aenarion.
Origins
Her past has been shrowded in mystery but what is known about her comes during the time of the Great Expansion of the High Elves. It was Aenarion who rescued her from a Slaanesh warband, unaware that she had been tainted by Chaos and was secretly a Slaanesh worshipper. Afterwards, it was whispered amongst the Elves that it was her enchanting beauty and spells that made her bed with Aenarion, giving birth to Malekith.
The Great Civil War
After Aenarion died, nothing more was said about her but the Cult of Pleasure began to take hold in Ulthuan. Originally, it was passed as a minor cult. But before long, it was whispered that animals and people began to disappear mysteriously only to turn up as if sacrificed in a painful way. It was during the time of Bel_Shanaar that Malekith denouced his mother as a Chaos worshipper of the Slaanesh which caused the Great Civil War or the Sundering as the High Elves refer to it. It was unknown how she managed to survive the purge but it seemed likely that the purging was an act for Malekith to gain power by using the very thing that all of the High Elves feared the most.
After Malekith was burned by the Sacred Flame of Asuryan, it was said that she wept with tears of blood for the damage done to her son. Nursing him back to strength, it was she who taught him the lore of magic and also the lore of the Dark Art. During the Sundering, she fled with her son and his followers after the great schism which almost destroyed Ulthuan.
Exile
Morathi is the most powerful Dark Elf in all of Naggaroth, just after the Witch King himself. Born to scheming and politics, and a talented Sorceress, Morathi has spent five thousand years teaching her son all she knows of statecraft and magic, and works to maintain his grip on the throne of Naggaroth. Morathi also first perfected the Dark Art, opening up gateways to the Chaos hells to receive unimaginable powers. Combined with her beauty and intellect, it is Morathi's magical abilities which allow her to hold sway over her enemies.
Morathi is the first Hag Queen of the Witch Elves, and although the sect now follows her rival, Hellebron, many who worship at the Temple of Khaine owe loyalty to the Sorceress. It is also claimed that Morathi brought forth the first Cauldron of Blood, some say given to her by bloodthirsty Khaine himself.Once a year, on Death Night, she bathes in the boiling blood within the cauldron, rejuvenating her old, tired flesh and emerging from the steam as young and beautiful as the day she left Ulthuan. No other Hag Queen has lived as long as Morathi, and Hellebron, forbidden access to the true Cauldron of Blood, withers and ages with every passing year. It is a source of much bitterness between them.
It is Morathi and Morathi alone of the Witch Elves who is allowed to wield magical power; like her son, Morathi feels no shame in creating laws and traditions for the control of others, whilst ignoring them herself. Over the millennia, Morathi has struck daemonic pacts with many vile and disturbing forces, and can unleash the power of Chaos with a thought. She is capable of the most powerful magics possible, and some believe it was her plan to destroy Ulthuan's magical vortex and unleash the hells of Chaos upon the world. Morathi is totally dedicated to her son, as he is to her, and though some would say their relationship is unnatural, between them they rule Naggaroth with an iron grip and bloodied sword.
During the Wars of Chaos
Seeing that her son was hellbent onto directing the war on the High Elves and the cost of this, Morathi turned her attentions up north. When travelling north, she found a Chaos warband dedicated in the worship of Slaanesh. At first, the primative barbarians were slightly afraid of her but then submitted to her after she summoned a large amount of Slaaneshi daemons to help defeat the various tribes that surrounded them. In doing so, she gained control of the warband where she proceeded to move south against the Empire of the Lizardmen in order to raid and retrieve any Lizardmen artifacts to aid the war against the hated High Elves.
Consort?
It has been hinted in the Dark Elf army book that she and her son share an incestual relationship as they co-rule Naggaroth. But some fans dismiss this as over-protective motherly love for her son and equal respect from her son. In other snippets of fiction within the White Dwarf, it has been implicated that there could be a higher relationship other than mother and son as Morathi tends to ask her son a lot of favours often, especially leading up to the Storm of Chaos worldwide campaign.
