# Morgan Steindahl
### Overview
[](https://redhandchronicles.com/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/6e03DPI1q9OGIE3W-morgprofile.png)
Boisterous in manner, bodacious in humor, and bohemian in dress.
Morgan is often found in places where the Kine's celebrations of life and Kindred hunting grounds cross. They seem pretty set to eek as much enjoyment out of life as possible, and to live as many experiences as they can.
Standing a bit taller than the average woman Morgan has a natural athleticism to them, but lack the dangerous poise of a trained killer. They speak with Southern twang, and occasionally splash a bit of Spanish into their speech. That speech presented in a relatively sultry voice is just the first of many obvious hints that the rural taste and habits acquired previously have come to roost in urban Baltimore with this one.
Morgan has a known arrangement with the Court, to provide daytime transportation and courier services to both the Court and its associated Kindred of the city. At a reasonable fee of course, ain't nothing in life for free.

Vehicles
[](https://redhandchronicles.com/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/cVc0rPaCOm6XeP4A-02-38-762x456.jpg)Still driving their first vehicle, Morgan's truck is a prized possession, kept updated with extra tech as well as security systems, and a work horse for their various enterprises that keeps them in cash flow and usefulness to the Kindred. The trailer that it pulls works easily as food truck, cargo mover, and extension to the cramped stealth camper in the truck bed that Morgan calls home. The set up works as great camouflage, allowing Morgan to be in many places without drawing much notice. (Pictures are rough representations, assume the truck has had durability upgrades with a cap put over the bed and the trailer is a bit more off-road friendly and a touch smaller).[](https://redhandchronicles.com/uploads/images/gallery/2023-01/tENfPBvHL3eZmpIi-834c25f5d50d6ae2ca3da367ef445c38.jpg)
Other
Tall, athletic and Nordic in appearance. Morgan seems to be a handful by both physical and personality standards. Generally wearing relatively conservative labor clothing or leisure wear Morgan puts on few airs. That isn't to say that they can't clean up nice; given enough time to hire someone to do their hair and makeup at least. Their willingness to play the fool and outgoing manner seems to stem more from confidence than any approval or attention seeking.

Born in Miami to parents that were caring despite what they were, Morgan managed to achieve a relatively normal childhood despite the Steindahl's nocturnal nature. Starting in Morgan's teens, they began to be prepared and prepped about their true nature and instructed in the nature of the undead and as much about the sects as their parents could impart living on the edge of vampiric society as it were. Coming of age, Morgan attended a number of trade schools rather than college. They simply never had the patience or inclination towards being well learned rather than well practiced. Like many youths, they opted to leave home despite warnings of how dangerous the world was to have their adventures.
Adventure for Morgan meant traveling North America and living the outdoors. Hiking, fishing, hunting, camping, spelunking and rock climbing all thoroughly engaged in. While Morgan new enough to generally avoid vampires, they did occasionally spot them in their wanderings and did their best to keep distance. Unfortunately the inevitable happened and Morgan became tied up unwillingly with a Tzimitize calling itself only "Teacher" during Morgan's regretfully long stay under their hospitality. The encounter had started relatively well, but Morgan's brash humor and at the time far more boorish behavior set the Tzimitize off. Morgan refuses to talk about details, but has grown to live with if not embrace, lean into, and enjoy the results of their captor's attentions.
That said Morgan still carries a chip on their shoulder towards the Tzimitize in general, and particularly that one. A vengeance to be had someday if Morgan should ever find Teacher in a position of weakness advantageous enough to do it properly and permanently. After all, even if Morgan is well adjusted, loving who they are and they life they lead now; Teacher stole their agency and free will for a long time and even now Morgan is sometimes left questioning how much they are still themselves and how much of who they were was manipulated.. mind, body and/or soul.
