Cedar Morris was the eldest son to a wealthy businessman in Baltimore and was promised greatness from the day he was born. His father would fetch him the highest staff to tend to his son that his money could buy as a child for private tutoring and a private nanny as he tended to his business. Cedar's mother was rather disinterested in her son seeing him as a child that made her husband happy with her. Yet despite his families pride in their first born, he was paid little to no attention leaving to him feeling rather isolated for the majority of his youth. On 1912 his father would allow for him to mentor him to attend his first business meeting where he would watch his father expecting for him to be some greater man yet, that was the day he lost respect for his father, seeing how his father so easily bowed the knee to a man that helped him secure his family's wealth and finding out that his father would aid in smuggling and other illicit activities. Rather than question why his father let another manipulate him into the business he asked why he would let this strange man dictate what business he did. As Cedar grew up he slowly became an active socialite and would join parties and scenes with others in high society until the suddenness of his father's death as his father dropped dead in the middle of a business meeting with co-proprietor ruled to be from a sudden heart attack. Cedar figured something was amiss yet soon found himself chained to his father's duties to a strange man that called himself Mr. Radcliff in 1922 Having never met this man before he was rather suspicious though upon meeting Mr. Radcliff for the first time did he believe that he had to have been just as young as him while he bolstered such status yet not partaking much into the local scene for someone with such amassed wealth. As the two got to talking, a business deal was struck leaving him out of the sections of his father's business but in the involvement of smuggling booze into the United States from The Boston Harbor. Rather driving a wealthy business while furthering his studies in linguistics as well as studying law to the side did he find that his wealth quickly grew past his father's and amassing great heights of popularity among the Rich and Famous of Boston. In fact, Cedar amassed such great wealth he decided to host his own party where Claude Radcliff would attend later inviting him to his estate after a private moment was shared among the pair. After the party had dissipated did he arrive to Mr. Radcliff's house were Claude would introduce him to his occult collection intriguing Cedar with the series of oddities allowing him to read from his very library, he even lent him a book filled with mentions of curiosities on the promise that he would appear the following fortnight with the book in hand as they had agreed upon. Yet Cedar's life was slowly being orchestrated by this strange man as he started coming into contact with business failings out of the blue forcing him to speak to Claude more and more. In 1929 his mother would have suddenly developed anemia leading to him spending what funds he could. Yet.. Claude still kept Cedar under his wing under pretenses that he had yet to understand. Having lost his status in the turn of the decade and loosing his mother in 1932 from anemia did Claude become the only man for him to depend on. After Cedar's estate was foreclosed on, Claude petitioned that he would write a personal loan to allow Cedar to get back on his feet. Being how the banks had started to shut down in droves he was forced to accept this and would join Claude's cult and study into demonology despite his own personal worries and fears dreaming that he would have a lovely wife and kids. Yet money was still tight as the depression slowly set in forever changing the United States. Yet this man seemed to never run out of funds. After slowly developing a dependency with Claude did Cedar ultimately move in to aid Claude with setting up his illicit rituals before joining in with the chanting. Yet one night after many attempts did the ritual finally work in summoning a being from the underworld, a demon. While the others stared in terror did Cedar recall the feeling of true terror seeing such a being in-front of him. Yet it all happened so quickly. In one swift motion did he feel the demon growing closer to him as if it coveted his very being leading to a panic stricken frenzy leading to it's momentary escape. Claude originally said it was taken care of holding him close in the moment as Cedar felt his body had been weak and tired seeing the mess the demon left in its wake, even if he had cleaned it would it stain his memory causing a worried conflict to happen between him and Claude, the very same night did Claude offer him to be by his side embracing Cedar in his moment of grief. Yet the nights would continue as Claude tended to Cedars knowledge of the world that he had been brought into in the promise of guidance into his own unlife. Yet Claude slowly slipped further and further away into the dark leaving Cedar alone for two decades. While Claude was gone Cedar's torpor often led him to dream a palace of luxury and nights with a woman of skin of gold that he slowly came to covet. Yet her words he never understood. On the days he slept he was often tormented by strange pains and bouts of fear as if he too was hunted. leading to him feeling that his embrace had turned the man insane. Quickly studying over it was he able to dictate that in his dreams that this strange gilded woman seemed to resemble a member of Ba'al's legions and confronted her by summoning her. There they would have reunited as Cedar could finally hear her words. I*n doing so he learned the demon from the night of the last circle made the demon angry and seeing him as a target..... Oh and her name being Galleia. Cedar closed to circle after they had forged a pact did she agree to help mentor him into his occult knowledge and aiding in his study of Thaumaturgy as he began to deviate into Dark Thaumaturgy under the Path of Phobos. In 1942 would Claude return to teach him the ropes and about the other clan and showing him how to blend into vampiric society along with his other sect members within Cedar's sire's domain. Finding out the truth as to what they were and even how to hide among kindred society by pretending to be a Ventrue as well as aiding him in understanding more into his own abilities. Though finding Cedar to be gifted in Thaumaturgy. Life was well for the pair of them as they occasionally moved locals across Baltimore as lovers. Cedar would have found himself accustomed running a small pub in the 90's even though he owned the place enjoying the simplistic life that he now lived being how he felt fulfilled. That was until he found his lover dead on his way back home in 1999 slaughtered in the dark street like some cattle. He found himself wishing he was there to stop them but his sire had been found out sending him into hiding. While grieving Cedar took ownership of a strip which later turned into the whole strip buying out each property one by one while continuing his studies of the occult in secret. Inviting him to join them as a cainite after a long talk would he have agreed to join their pact. Among his time with them would he have stumbled upon a young man studying in his bookstore about the occult leading to him ultimately deciding to take him under his wing under the condition that he would work for him as a drug mule and do various odd tasks for the permission to read through his selection of occult books. Aaron Tucker would be the ghouls new name after tossing away his own identity in 2005.
