==Personality==
mud/mortar trying to better understand mud and mortar culture through xyr chosen profession. not very outspoken but kindly enough, and far too empathetic at times, according to xyr sibs (and mostly true). 
==History==
took tolype under xyr wing, literally. sat there in the rain and saw them and got talking about paleontology (xyr passion the love of xyr life honestly) and tolype got interested. & morass pulls off puppy eyes well enough that xe was able to convince the uni xe does research for or whatever to take tolype in as a fledgling. one that knows nothing, sure, but they're willing to learn and for morass that's enough. has lowkey adopted them at this point
received official paleontologist creds (read: graduated) right on the cusp of the war of sandwing succession and hasn't been able to really Do Xyr Job during it . was a civilian partly afforded that luxury bc of xyr hybrid status but has Gone thru some stuff during the war regardless -- has had xyr home destroyed, a lot, andn w/o sufficient credit to set up residence in safer areas
um no ahhh I think maybe xe like grew up entirely during the war that's it that's the dynamic
had three sibs (crawdad, darter, marabou); second oldest child & enforcer behind the bigwings dynamic. pretty big so xyr job was to sit there and look scary a lot of the time. second youngest sib, the one xe had always been relatively closer to, died near the end of the war. a mistake. a casualty from one of the last bombings from the war; xe still hurts with it. xyr coworker is trying to get xer to go to therapy but xe has too much ingrained self-doubt & thinks to 'save' it for 'others who actually need it', those who actually fought in the war. 2 sibs left. xe's trying.
trying to learn how to cook in xyr free time. it's not going well
==Relationships==
*Parents - neutral: Xe's never known them, after all. Some of xyr sibs resent them, but xe's trying to be at peace with never knowing them.
*Crawdad - positive: the bigwings look he even has dad in his name!! frankly tensions have been ranking up though ever since the incident. trying to approach the bigwings position again and be a good older brother but it's hard
*Darter - um: xe's sorry.
*Marabou - positive: the youngest sibling and universally doted upon even though Mara's technically only even younger than Morass and Crawdad by like 6 minutes. an angel Morass adores her she's xyr kid sister
*Thrush - neutral-positive: one of xyr favorite coworkers.
*Tolype - positive: kid
*Icaricia - positive: situation alert alert
