**Dexter Morgan** is the titular character and **antihero** of both Showtime's ***DEXTER*** and the **Dexter Book Series**. Until he faked his own death and resorted to isolation, Dexter was a **Serial Killer** that went after other killers (to control his "**Dark Passenger**"), rather than harming innocent people. By day, he was a blood spatter analyst within the **Miami Metro Police Department**, working closely with the detectives and other forensic specialists, while maintaining a jovial personality. He is the biological son of a stripper and **Joe Driscoll** and the biological brother of **Brian Moser** who was also known as the **The Ice Truck Killer.**

Dexter was the husband of **Rita Bennett** (who was the mother of his **child**), the adoptive brother of **Lieutenant Debra Morgan**, and the adoptive son of **Doris** and **Harry Morgan**, the police-detective who taught Dexter a **legitimate code** to operate under and survive with (however, it was revealed in **Season 8** that **Dr. Evelyn Vogel** partook in this) his urges. Dexter is also the father of **Harrison Morgan**, and the step-father of **Astor** and **Cody Bennett**. Eventually, Dexter had developed a detailed **method of killing** that allowed him to avoid the justice system itself by getting rid of any potential evidence (including the body itself) with the use of **stream currents** that head north through the country.

Dexter was the true "**Bay Harbor Butcher**", though **Sergeant James Doakes** was framed for the crimes that were committed and the legend had died with him (until **Maria LaGuerta** reopened the investigation after discovering a mysterious blood slide at **Travis Marshall'**s crime scene). The alias never personally stuck with Dexter, and he hadn't referred to himself by the title since the end of **Season Two**, except for one instance of inner-monologue in **Season Six**. Of interest, **his brother** (**The Ice Truck Killer**) received far more mention than 'The Bay Harbor Butcher', despite other characters that began comparing the two's similar kill methods. The last characters to even reference "**The Bay Harbor Butcher**" **investigation** were **Miguel Prado**, **Maria LaGuerta**, and **Ryan Chambers** (the latter mentioned both 'The Bay Harbor Butcher' and **The Trinity Killer** in her interest of the cases). It turns out that both cases are actually (now) in the hands of the **FBI**, so **Miami Metro Homicide** has little to no information that is still in their hands anyway.

Dexter is estimated to have killed well over 100 people. With his first **Blood Slide Box** having **46** slides and his other one having **43** slides, while taking into account his victims that he had not taken blood from (along with the slide that got broken in **Season 7**), as well as his other kills in 7 and **8**, the total rounds up to about **134** kills. Due to this, Dexter can be viewed as the most prolific serial killer in the series, both by kill count and by, behind **Arthur Mitchell**, who was killing for at least 30 years, and had a known kill count of at least **123** victims (4 per year). Dexter's brother had at least **15** confirmed kills, but he had likely killed many more individuals (prior to the series).
