Character Synopsis:
Born in London in 1870, Morgan Wynn is the only child of Arthur Wynn and his late wife, Morgan. Given his name to honor his mother's memory, the babe was raised in London mostly by a governess, tutors, and the household staff at the family's small estate. His father left the young boy behind at the age of four, when he moved to India to open a new branch of his growing business. His son was given every luxury and necessity to have a productive childhood as a means of grooming him to become part of the family business once he was old enough. As such, Morgan was never moved from London, so he could grow up in the city where he's expected to inherit familial responsibilities.
Arthur Wynn returns to England rarely, and on one trip took a new wife and moved her to India with him, where they began a new family. Morgan has never met any of his half-siblings, and can count on one hand the number of times he remembers meeting his father in person. He considers his closest friends - those gathered during his schooling and since then as a young, working adult - to be more of his family as a result. In time, he's expected to court and marry a woman of the appropriate social class to begin his own family, but his quiet nature and frequent swoons have given him the leniency of more time free of this fate.
By day, Morgan is an accountant for his father's business. Although he's one day expected to take a greater role as an owner or chief financial officer, the young man has (so far) successfully pushed back on the idea. Morgan has no desire to be a leader or to manage other people. He has a love of the complexity and elegance of balancing books, finding and addressing errors, and improving the business from his small corner office. With his father far from the London office, no one who works with the young man expects he'll ever be forced to take on more than what he's comfortable with.
When not in the thick of his accounting work, Morgan appreciates theater and poetry, and has a weakness for the most romantic among them. He frequents both West and East End theaters, eagerly attending plays with friends or by himself. He spends several evenings a week out with friends at various clubs, and the rest in the modest home settled neatly between the West and East Ends he's purchased for himself after selling the family estate (there was no need to keep it when his father would never use it and when Morgan is trying to find a way out of marrying). He devours poetry, plays, and literature at a frantic pace, and has recently taken up writing poetry himself at a friend's insistence. Someday, he hopes to have enough poems to publish a collection, which can then be performed in salons and libraries across the whole of London.
Outside of his passions for the arts and romance, the young accountant hides two secrets from the world. The first is his religious beliefs; while appearing to be an upstanding Christian man, Morgan is a Pagan. His spirituality is muted due to its secrecy, and many of his beliefs are ill-formed in his head, but he keeps to them as yet another way of honoring the mother he never knew. Morgan's second secret is that he's inverted. With the scandal that is being an openly homosexual man in England, he keeps his romantic desires completely to himself. When asked why he doesn't marry, Morgan insists marriage isn't the life for him, and that his frequent swoons would make him a poor husband. In truth, his desires are barely knowable even in his own mind, appearing only as vague feelings and tugs in his heart when a man catches his attention just right.
tl;dr - Morgan is a middle class gentleman, who happily works as an accountant, is an aspiring poet, and is a very (secretly) gay bab.
Character Notes:
-Morgan speaks often with a stammer or noticeable verbal hesitation. This has been with him all his life in spite of many elocution lessons, and is heightened during times of emotional stress or distress.
-Morgan is, by all accounts, a relatively healthy young man. However, he's often overwhelmed emotionally to the point of swooning (fainting). He recovers quickly enough, and takes it in stride as simply being part of his life.
-There are whispers of magic in Morgan's life. At times of deep emotional desire or overwhelm, small objects around a room will move or candles will light themselves after being snuffed. It's rare enough that the young man assumes it to be a strange occurrence, and writes it off without another thought.
