Player Name: Dema-lition
Contact info(e-mail, screen name, etc): *snerk*
*Years of Rping: 1,239,089,487,456,109,248
Name: Morgon
*Age: 26
Gender: Male
Bloodline: Nimbus
Preferred mantel (pick three): Osprey, Kestrel Hawk, Savannah Monitor
Court Preference: Seelie
Appearance: At first glance, Morgon is certainly a human. A great-looking one, to be sure -- he is quintessentially handsome at 6'2 with broad shoulders and an endearing, offbalanced smile -- but nothing so extraordinary that you would think him faerie. Perhaps if you looked very closely at his eyes, and noticed that they were a rather vivid shade of green...but even then, there have been humans with such eyes, and so none have suspected him based on that trait alone. No, the suspicion comes into play when one is not looking directly at him, when he hovers in your peripheral vision and the image of him seems to waver between actuality and potential, when the lines blur and he momentarily transforms into some gilded, glowing thing. Then you peer at him closely and he is Morgon again, smiling away, but with an expression of sinister trickery.
Back to the basics. Morgon is tallish, bigish, and blondish. He is fit but by no means carved from stone like some faerie in Alanor, having never intended to hack off another's head; his body is that of an athlete, not a warrior. Perhaps one day it will become both.
Personality: Morgon is a highly empathic individual. It's actually a little unnerving: he seems to always know how the people around him are feeling, if not thinking. It is a quality borne of his attention to detail and preference to listen rather than speak, but many have wondered if it is some kind of otherworldly gift, in its remarkable accuracy. Even Morgon, himself, has debated the real source of his empathy, for at times it is so automatic as to seem a passive ability, and he often wishes he could just turn the damn thing off. Especially when people are being subtle, and he would really rather not know that he is being lied to. Mais Alas.
Empathy, however, should not be confused with compassion. Morgon's awareness of people's deceit, their self-interest, the pleasure they take in other people's pain, and other elements of the average person's psyche have made him fairly unsympathetic. The nimbus can be kind, once he has studied another person long enough to judge them worth his kindness, but in general he is aloof, slow to trust, and not unwilling to hurt another person in order to protect himself. He is a realist, not a sadist.
Besides these qualities, Morgon is a curious individual (often to his detriment) who likes to understand how things work and will not rest until he has solved a mystery. One the other side, Morgon also likes to understand how to unmake things, and apply his rationality and intelligence to destructive ends. It can be just as interesting to watch something die as to watch it be born, after all.
