Brigitis is a female nymph.

Description[]

The beautiful nymph Brigitis is the benevolent ruler of a group of mythological beings living on the Island of Erinia. When an evil giant stole the Cornucopia that provided her people with most of their food, Brigitis made a vow to marry the one who'd take it back from the Giant. That one turned out to be Scrooge McDuck, who, having never met Brigitis before in his life, ran away before the wedding, leaving Brigitis extremely forlorn at her hopes of a romantic wedding with a prophesied hero being so hopelessly crushed by reality.

Behind the scenes[]

Brigits only ever appeared in 1981 in Uncle Scrooge and the Horn of Plenty. Brigitis is obviously designed and named after Brigitta McBridge, in a nod to both characters' intent to marry a reluctant Scrooge, although there is no known connections between the characters in-universe.
