Details
A mercenary group of the tenor of the Pack with whom they had a fierce rivalry during the 1990s, Mág Ealga do no deceive themselves about the nature of their work. They referred to themselves as Mág Ealga, in honor of the Irish heritage the founding members shared; the members were largely ex-military, with the exception of Morgan. They stuck primarily to Africa, Eastern Europe and South America, and despite the widespread area the group worked within, their rivals were always there as well. Mág Ealga had a reputation for professionalism, details, and being creative when needed. They didn't fall down on or short change a contract and were known for not only being reliable, but always doing precisely what they've promised to do, nothing more or less. Because of Morgan Lennox they got a number of contracts that involved espionage. One such mission involved infiltrating the Pack, who was working for the rival to an employer of Mág Ealga's.
When the Pack retired, their main competitors for contracts was gone. Mág Ealga literally just picked which contracts they wanted, and of course always went with the highest paying ones unless it was unreasonably dangerous. No one was a fan of seeing the inside of a prison ever again and they'd all ended up in one at least once or twice by then. The next three years (2006-2008) were easy, or as easy as they got for a mercenary, until Aleister died on the job. Another stepped up to lead but many of their connections were specific to Aleister, and at the same time, Morgan was having increasing trouble seperating her mimics, which almost lead to another death within the team.
Since Morgan's departure in May 2008, the group has continued as it did before. They remain in touch with her, however, and sometimes provide information useful to X-Force. Eamon, one of the members, has also started a relationship with Morgan's former roommate, the naive Laurie Collins.
