wait i meant coven

But Gaga is technically only an actress playing Scathach, so I think it would be redundant to have return playing the actual Scathach in a later season.

I guess the Scathach story has ended, there won't be more Gaga scene left

Since she's not in the house

Do you mean successors? That makes sense. She would be the most powerful Supreme then

Yeah that's a great theory !

Concerning the fact it was said that Tituba and black voodoo witches were the ones who gave white witches their powers it's only Marie Laveau's version of the story... It's probably not true. Scathach is definitely the one who is the origin of witches.

I really hope Gaga will find a way to return every years (or skipping only next season). She really is a great fit to the show ! 

 

but in this season they said her powers were a combination of her magic (from scotland or whatever?)  and the magic she learned when she arrived in america to create something "new"

could the magic she learned in america be from voodoo practioniers (most likely from slaves)? or from the native people?

i was going somewhere with this but i got sidetracked  this season really messes with my mind

I wasn't thinking of that angle because I don't think there were British slaves at the time--they were still trying to get a foothold of the american continent after all. If there were slaves, the Spanish would have had them, and they were not exactly buddies with the British Empire but then Murphy makes his own rules.

I just took that to mean that Scathach adapted to the environment around her.

Actually Kathy Bates confirmed on Twitter that Scatach's accent is different to The Butchers, because Scathach was involved in the slavery trade between Scotland and Barbados, which is part of the Caribbean. Which, interestingly enough, is where voodoo comes from! She escaped the slave trade on a ship to America as a stow away; she wasn't meant to be going to America! The show kinda glossed over those details in her episode lol.

Apparently it's true!

"It was a lucrative business. An Irish white slave could be sold in Barbados for between £10 and £35.

In all, more than 50,000 Irish were transported from Ireland to Barbados (more were sent to other islands in the West Indies), many of them prisoners captured by Oliver Cromwell during the wars in Ireland and Scotland and following the Monmouth Rebellion. The slaves became known as Redlegs, almost certainly a reference to the sunburn they picked up in the hot tropical sun.

By the mid-1700s most were free, their places taken by Africans."

"Many of the Redleg's ancestors were forcibly transported by Oliver Cromwell consequent to his Conquest of Ireland.[2] Others had originally arrived on Barbados in the early to mid-17th century as indentured servants.[citation needed] Small groups of Germans and Portuguese were also imported as plantation labourers."
