As a young man that felt a calling to the church, Morgan joined the priesthood of Thoth, god of wisdom and knowledge. It was during his tour as a laypriest that he encountered a cult attempting to summon one of the old ones into the world. defeating the cult, he made the mistake of looking into the nascient portal that had formed....and gazed upon the countenance of dread cthulhu itself.
Losing Consciousness, He woke several days later in a different town surrounded by tattoos that have represented knowledge. Returning to his church, he told his story, but could not remember what he saw on the other side of the portal, so in his memory, the cultists were defeated before they ever had a chance to open a portal.
The first time he summoned his pact weapon, an angelic figure appeared to present the blade to him. He was not expecting it, but he took this as a sign that Thoth had anointed him as a paladin of his faith.
Wandering the land, Morgan finds those who abuse their authority and smites them in the name of his god. He occasionally is troubled by nightmares he can't remember, but he considers it a small price to pay for the gifts that his god have bestowed upon him: the ability to read all languages, to speak with others using only his mind and, of course, his holy sword, which each day is delivered to him by the same angelic being.
