Morgan Matheson

Name: Morgan Emilia Matheson
Gender: Female
Age: 17
Sexuality: Demisexual
FC: Brec Bassinger

Personality: At first glance, Morgan seems quiet and closed-off: she doesn’t seem to enjoy engaging people she doesn’t know—and when she does, they are usually the ones who do most of the talking. In reality, though, she honestly has no idea what the hell is required from her end of the conversation because she overthinks it. It seems as though the few friends she does have mistook her for an orphaned, colorblind possum that decidedly wasn’t dead and coaxed her into friendship—and yes, she did just think of herself as an orphaned, colorblind possum. She’s not antisocial per se, but she’s definitely failing in the art of communication—she just finds it difficult to connect with others. Once it’s apparent that you’re going to put up with her, though, Morgan opens up quite a bit—okay, she can be extremely talkative and unfiltered if she’s comfortable around you. She’s a good listener even if she’s not good at giving advice, though she can be a bit blunt on the occasion that she does. Morgan is very loyal to her friends; in her mind, if you’ve accepted her, you are now her friend, and if you’re her friend then she will do almost anything you ask of her—though if it involves near-death experiences, expect some very dry complaints.
Flaws (three or more):

• Bad at opening up
  
• Very little confidence
  
• Has an irrational fear of clowns, puppets, and dolls—anything in the uncanny valley, basically
  
• Struggles with putting thoughts into words
  

Eye color: Green
Hair description: Brown; long and wavy
Height: 5’3”
Skin tone: Fair
Ethnicity: Caucasian
Body structure: Pretty small frame; hourglass figure; fit
Other details?: She has a light scar on her chin from a childhood incident that involved a four-year-old Morgan deciding she was Spider-Man before jumping face-first down a small flight of stairs.

Place of Birth (city, state, country): Winter Haven, Florida
Mortal Parent: Bethany Matheson
God Parent: Glaucus, a fisherman-turned-sea deity and minor god of prophecy
Abilities (doesn't use energy to do):

• Zoolingualism. Due to her divine heritage, Morgan can speak to aquatic life telepathically.
  
• Navigation. Due to her divine heritage, Morgan has innate navigation skills while in the ocean. Unfortunately, this is usually limited to knowing latitude/longitude, where north always is, when there will be bad weather, how close to the shore she is, etc.—she can’t actually sail or anything like that.
  
• Underwater Breathing. Due to her divine heritage, Morgan is able to breathe underwater without difficulty. How the water doesn’t flood her lungs is beyond her.
  
• Increased Density. Due to her divine heritage, Morgan’s density increases when she’s underwater so she isn’t harmed by the pressure. This only works whenever she’s in water; pressure outside of it can squish her.
  

Powers (uses energy to do):

• Foresight. Due to her divine heritage, Morgan can be “granted” visions of the future. She has very little control over this and isn’t very good at actually interpreting her visions. Her visions of the future aren't set, either, as small actions can change the future in infinite ways, so both her visions and her interpretations thereof can turn out to be inaccurate. Actually attempting to initiate a vision takes a one (1) post activation with an eight (8) post cool-down. Using this too much will give her a killer migraine and eventually exhaust her. These visions cause her to space out for the duration of the activation, leaving her vulnerable to attack, and usually end with her flinching and making an incoherent verbal exclamation such as “gah.”
  

Pets (if any): N/A

History (four sentences or more): Morgan is the only child of Bethany Matheson. Growing up, she never knew her father—after all, there’s no easy way to tell your child that their father is a literal fish-man—and wasn’t close to anyone but her mom and grandmother. A quiet child, the only thing she truly enjoyed were her swim meets…until, that is, one of them was interrupted by the appearance of a cyclops. Morgan was rescued by her swim coach, who turned out to be a satyr, who then (along with her mother) explained what the hell was going on. Despite initially thinking she was having a nervous breakdown, Morgan accepted this information with as much grace as can be expected. She’s been a resident at CHB for about a week.
Notes: Morgan doesn’t eat seafood—fish and the like aren’t the greatest conservationists out there, but it just seems wrong to eat something you can have a discussion with.

Hi Cass! I hate dolls too, mostly porcelain ones, ick!

I would say just add something in the foresight about how the future is constantly changing and there is room for error with the power.

Edited. I feel a bit silly that I didn't think to add that originally, so thanks for the suggestion!

No worries! Any time

Approved!
