The man only known as **Morgan** is a smooth-talking, handsome individual who decidedly appears at random to help or hinder certain parties. The full extent of his intentions are largely unclear, but his kindness is a cruel facade; as a Hand of Death, Morgan serves only his greater master, and in extension is an agent of the Shadow Veil.

## Appearance

### Normal

Of seemingly Caucasian descent, Morgan sports wavy, brunette locks with a moderate stubble. While his eyes are a rather dull amber, there always seems to be some sort of powerful force behind his glare, as if one were staring straight into the depths of a midnight abyss. When "influenced" by the Shadow Veil, Morgan's eyes will flicker to a blood red, with his face turning to an inky blackness. Physical appearance aside, Morgan takes his attire very seriously and always dresses well. Adorned in expensive fibers, Morgan wears a knee-length coat covered in complex patterns, and a sweater with a ruffled collar and cuffs. The attire comes in varying shades of blue, with a burgundy scarf nested right at the collar of his sweater. Morgan will typically top it off with a fedora, just for that final touch of flair.

### Veiled

When the facade of his human appearance begins to crack, Morgan enters a state that's roughly between his glamoured self and his "real" self. When induced into his Veiled state, visible, black cracks appear on his skin as if it were flaking off; the cracks produce some form of blackened ooze that actively eats away light. His eyes turn pitch black, with irises and pupils becoming a solid, blood red. Morgan seems to intentionally suppress his powers when outside of his Veiled state, but when he reaches this point, he's just stopped caring. An aura of darkness radiates off of him, temporarily blocking out any source of light within an immediate radius around him.

## Personality

Morgan is kind and helpful, albeit enigmatic and considerably violent in his execution of opposition. He always tends towards a flair for the dramatic, enunciating phrases in rhymes or spouting poetry even when inappropriate. Morgan doesn’t seem to take anything seriously, as if life is just one, large game to him; he certainly treats it as such, given his usual interactions with other beings and general dismissive attitude towards danger. Despite his penchant for aimless wandering, Morgan seems to take considerable care in his appearance, as he is always seen wearing extravagant and expensive attire. When forced to act, Morgan displays sociopathic tendencies towards those who make enemies with him, barely even regarding them as fellow beings.

## Abilities

Morgan's existence seems to be inextricably tied with the Shadow Veil; whenever in his "true" form, objects around him will begin to decay and rot, whether they're organic or inorganic. He can seemingly disrupt light of any kind, temporarily blocking it out; when wreathed in complete darkness, he can instantaneously travel wherever there is shadow. Morgan can seemingly suppress this alternate form through considerable strain, taking on a more human appearance.
