- “Hilda is Morgana. She's been using some kind of ageing spell.”
- — Merlin to Gaius[src]
Hilda was an alter ego used by Morgana Pendragon. She created this guise by using an ageing spell to pose as an elderly woman.
Biography[]
Morgana first posed as Hilda when she infiltrated Camelot disguised as Princess Mithian's maidservant. Her true identity was later revealed to Merlin by Mithian, to Gaius by Merlin, and to Arthur and Percival by Morgana herself (Another's Sorrow).
Morgana posed as Hilda to meet with Gwen in Camelot's marketplace. She gave Gwen tinctures of henbane and valerian to use to poison Arthur (A Lesson in Vengeance).

Trivia[]
- The ageing spell used by Morgana caused extreme exhaustion and mainly seemed to effect her outward appearance; after examining Hilda, Gaius remarked that her blood flowed with the strength and vigour of someone half her age (Another's Sorrow).
