Morgan’s father and older brother were enforcers in the Hillman gang. He was brought up with a very strict code of conduct; there was behavior the “family” approved of which was rewarded, and there was behavior that was unacceptable which was punished. When Morgan came of age he was expected to serve Hillman in the same capacity as his father. Morgan, however, was not as physically equipped as the other men in his family. As a high functioning sociopath he was, however, smart and manipulative. It soon became clear that he could accomplish the same results as a beating through implication and intimidation.

1925 During prohibition, Morgan had taken over his family’s business. Although he had a squad of the more traditional leg breakers and enforcers, he was more accomplished in the art of psychological control. Often all it took was his calling card, the Tarot card V the Hierophant, and people would rush to make things right with Hillman. Of course, refusing to comply to his expectations often resulted in a visit from the other men in his crew. His motto was simple, follow the rules and there will never be a need to be judged.

1930 One night, Hillman called Morgan to a meeting where he was introduced to Bernard Hampton. He was told that he would be working for Hampton from that time forward. Arrangements were made for his family and crew and Morgan left that night with Hampton. He never saw his family again.

They traveled the country. Every city they went to, Hampton would use his influence to exert control over the more unruly factions bringing them in line then present that control to some other powerful peer. At first, Morgan was nothing more than an aide but little by little, Hampton started employing him in more active roles in the take overs. After spending two years with Hampton, Morgan was given the chance to run an operation on his own.

1935 After three such operations, Hampton revealed his true nature and embraced him as his childer. He spent the next five years being tutored in the in eternal nightly struggle in the war between the Tower, the bastions of rule and order, and the Anarchs agents of chaos and destruction.

1945 Hampton and Morgan travel to a small city in west central Oregon, Eugene, where he introduced to the prince, Elijah Smith. This was the end of his accounting. As Hillman did on that fateful night, Hampton turned Morgan over to his new superior, the Prince of Eugene. The last thing Elijah said to Hampton was, “This settles your account, you are dismissed”

Although it was not as large as some of the other cities Morgan had operated in, Eugene seemed to attract those bent on breaking the system in the name of reformation. Morgan began working closely with those in the Prince’s court to discover those forces, kindred and mortal, that were trying to dismantle the power base of the Tower. With access to the disciplines granted by his sire’s blood, Morgan learned to truly manipulate both the mind and the emotions of those he brought to the justice of the Tower.
