Morgan

Morgan is a Feline (a felis catus) who resides in the Heart of the World Temple. They are a cleric, and believe themself to be a Server of the Server.

## Appearance

Morgan is a short, stocky, and very fluffy calico felis catus, about 4’ something. Their tail is larger and thicker than that of other felines, resembling a fox’s tail. They wear a brown leather coat which is too large for them, and a ragged turquoise tunic.

## Personality

Morgan idolises the idea of friends and family, but the fact is that up until recently, they’ve never had any. They believe that the only way they’ll ever gain anything like that is if they discover more of their kind; after all, why would anyone else want anything to do with them?

Of course, there are those that have doted on Morgan in the past, but Morgan saw straight through that; they want a family, not to be a family pet. Any attempt to baby them, or even to simply help them out, is met with hostility and suspicion- that is, unless it comes from other felines, or from the Server.

However, Morgan cares fiercely about those who’ve been hurt. They loathe those who value peace-keeping and social niceties over seeking justice for victims, believing that this stems from a desire to uphold a harmful status quo. They also put a lot of weight on personal boundaries- while they don’t respect authority, and will disregard rules they think are foolish, they will not venture into other people’s homes, nor investigate chests or other belongings. These beliefs perhaps have a very personal reason behind them, but nothing has been revealed of their backstory as of yet.

Recently, Morgan has been even more closed off than usual, spending most of their time in the Temple.

## History

### Appearance in the Valley

Morgan appeared in the Valley relatively early on, building a treehouse there and checking for new visitors regularly. However, they didn’t form any lasting friendships during their time there.

### Contact with the Entity

Shortly after Morgan had constructed their treehouse, they began to receive messages and gifts from the Entity. Morgan believed this being to be “the Server”, a deity which Felines had been created specifically to serve. After several cryptic messages, they were visited in person by the Entity, and shown the Heart of the World Temple.

### Initial Leif Conflict

Morgan’s feud with Leif began when Leif entered their treehouse without permission, leaving a mailbox and gifts. Morgan, having never received mail before, saw this as a threat- a demonstration that someone could enter their home and alter it as they saw fit without Morgan being able to stop them- and sought out Leif to tell him to leave them alone.
Leif, wanting to apologise, entered their house again with more gifts- which Morgan saw as him mocking them by doing the exact same thing as before, secure in the knowledge that Morgan couldn’t stop him. Furious and terrified, Morgan issued a threat of their own to Leif, drawing their weapon on him while telling him to stay away. To make sure of this, they set up a small redstone trap inside the mailbox where the gifts had appeared, using a block of TNT, to ensure if Leif ever crossed their boundaries again he would be scared off.

Enough time passed that Morgan had almost forgotten about the incident, which meant that when someone triggered the trap they were caught unawares. Shocked and hurt that something they’d long presumed to be over and done with had resurfaced again, they fled the Valley, leaving Leif something to remember them by by detonating another block of TNT in his house. They took up residence in the Heart of the World Temple.

### Ebon

Ebon was the first other feline Morgan had met- up until this point Morgan had believed that they were the last of the felis catus. They were overjoyed to have been wrong, and immediately showed Ebon the Heart of the World Temple, believing the knowledge of its location to be Ebon’s right as another feline.

Morgan cares tremendously about Ebon, seeing them as family and one of the few people they can trust in the world. However, Morgan does seem to have a habit of waving off Ebon’s concerns about their behaviour as him worrying too much, and doesn’t seem to realise when he’s upset with them.

### Puffball

Morgan met Puffball in the Valley, and took a shine to them almost immediately. The respect Puffball had for plant life seemed to them to be another way of worshipping their Server- it was the first time they’d met anyone who seemed to see the world like they did.

This meant that when Leif ravaged Puffball’s garden for seemingly no reason, Morgan was furious. This attack on another person who’d done nothing to deserve it proved, in Morgan’s eyes, that Leif was not just holding a grudge against Morgan; that instead, he would hurt anyone who displeased him or got in his way. Angry with Leif (and possibly with themself, for running instead of standing up to him), Morgan decided to retaliate as best they could.

### The Midsummer Dance

While determined to show Leif some consequences for his behaviour, Morgan felt that they couldn’t hurt Leif in any meaningful way- that a leader of a faction would have access to resources that would render him untouchable by someone like them. However, when the Valley’s Midsummer Dance was held, Morgan attended in disguise, hoping to catch the avion off-guard.

At the end of the evening, Morgan made their attempt, fighting Leif in the theatre with their diamond sword. To their utter shock, they managed to kill him, and swiftly fled the scene, in turmoil about the blood now on their hands.

Since Leif’s death, Morgan has kept mostly to themself. While they don’t seem to regret killing Leif, they have grown quieter and more reserved.
