How do wings like that even work? I get that she's dark and I LOVE the rest of her design, but butt wings are just weird. She has an entire exposed back so why can't her wings move up a bit. Just a tiny bit so they look, you know, functional as we typically see wings?

Maybe she just lost the four upper wings?

I do think it's a bit strange, but at the same time it's not like she ever flies since she was the fallen angel, and seeing as they kind of kept too that it does make sense. So maybe she lost the upper wings and only keeps those.

They also pushed her more towards the Succubus kind of theme, and that is generally where they have their wings.

Search up buttwings in google or various booru sides. You'll get the appeal soon enough.

Succubuses often have wings on their waist.

To show off her sexy back and shoulders. Because sex sells. A backless dress is super sexy.

Perhaps her model didn't read enough well/didn't work well with the neck collar thing she has going on? I am no animator or model designer but it is a possible answer.

Star Guardian Soraka and Dragon Queen Zyra also have this problem

The Highest Noon2/18/2019, 6:10:03 PM2 votes

Because it's been a common thing in Japanese culture forever now for female characters of demonic design to have wings at their lower back.

100% sure they made this exactly because they wanted to show her nude back for... reasons

Pandemic Punch2/19/2019, 11:06:36 AM2 votes

So she twerks to fly?

Yeah they can make the monsters(are Morgana and Kayle now monsters?) look however they want, but how is Kayle supposed to stretch her arms properly with that horribly designed shoulder armor ripping into her neck or whatever?

Morgana is a fallen angel so her wings naturally fell a little too. Logic

ChaosThief2/19/2019, 2:49:57 AM1 votes

For reference, by the way, current Morgana actually has the same kind of wings. Just, you know, her model is outdated and they sway stupidly.

It's a classic evil/demonic style that most use. Also As you saw Kayle grew more wings, I'm sure morgana can too.

Asherus2/19/2019, 8:04:50 AM1 votes

I really hate this style of wing design and I think it detracts from the character. I am not a fan of that. This being said I do like the other aspects of her redesign

the deemo2/24/2019, 3:33:02 PM1 votes

Hopefully explaining the small bit of it, she bound her wings by choice. They're partially clipped and deformed, and can't function as normal wings (although they do open in her Victorious recall). They rewrote her and Kayle's lore, so it's probably better at explaining all of that than I am.

DarkSoul19942/19/2019, 12:09:37 PM1 votes

Look at Kayle - she has 3 pairs of wings (Shoulders, Upper back, lower back).

Morgana seems to only have the lowest pair.

Perfect doggy handler

Vlada Cut2/19/2019, 7:26:30 PM1 votes

A decoration to her down wing pair dress and the dress itself. Not meant for flying jist like her character isn't either.

Banoffee2/19/2019, 7:33:54 PM1 votes

The lower wings are characteristic of succubus designs in art. For whatever reason, the wings are lower. (To make room for corsets? Iono.) They're generally placed around the tailbone. They can look awesome, but Morg doesn't look like a fallen angel anymore. So it debatably doesn't work on her anymore.

DeathBurst2/19/2019, 8:04:52 PM1 votes

Actually, if we speak of "functional" (which is already a bit silly, you know), having wings in that position is probably better that high up near the shoulder blades. It's closer to your center of mass, so the flight will be more stable and the balance easier to maintain.

Her wings aren't on her butt. They're tied down by choice.

I personally don't like it and wish I could get a refund since I really don't like any of the skins now :/

floo2/19/2019, 12:53:39 AM1 votes

If it's just about the placement.. Dragon Sorceress Zyra has hers around that area as well, no? Otherwise, since they are sisters, she might've just lost the others.
