Badb Celtic Goddess of War

Badb -pronounced Bibe- is the Irish Goddess of warfare.

Together with her sisters Macha and Anu, she is part of the triple Goddess referred to as the Morrigan.


All 3 can take the form of ravens, and can fly over battlefields, deciding on who would live or die.
They would then take those souls from the departed within their black wings, flying them away to the Netherworld.
Badb will occasionally be a part of the battles herself, typically in the form of a wolf.
