True Sage of Water, Morpha was once Queen of the Zora race. However, her fellow Sages, Koume and Kotake, descended on her home, nearly destroying everyone in Zora's Domain. Morpha managed to lure the two to the newly constructed Water Temple. It was there that the Twins destroyed Morpha's body, reducing her to a liquid form.

She remained in the Water Temple, unable to aid her people. Over time, she lost what little of herself remained, and she became a beast, living only to destroy those who dared intrude into her temple.
