In mythology, she actually proved incredibly lucky, as very rarely did things ever not end up in her favor. While her husbands and lovers often got themselves killed fighting amongst themselves, Medb never really recieved any backlash from it herself. Furthermore she meets Cu Chulainn in battle multiple times, but is never harmed directly despite his repeated superhuman attacks against her. Instead she would be defended by a handmaiden or one of her pets who would at times miraculously intercept the attack in her stead (and of course immediately die), such as the time her pet stoat sitting on her shoulder took a rock to the face that Cu had slung at her from an impossible distance away.
