Levi Morgan

Levi Morgan is a new Tome Knight who has recently joined House Ailurus.   Born in Armagh in Ireland, most of Levi's earliest memories are of a country still reeling from decades of tension . He grew up in a small farmhouse just outside of the town with his mother, father, and older siblings - he was later joined by his younger sister Liza.   The younger pair of the Morgans shared a close sibling bond. There was always something of a joke that they could read one another's minds with how well they played and got along. Nobody ever truly found out that Liza actually could.   Up until the age of six, Levi lived a relatively 'normal' upbringing as his world calmed. He was always top of the class and dedicated to his school work. Levi had a keen mind and curious soul, he was often social and the first one to dive into group activities either in the schoolyard allotment or playing Gaelic football.   Unfortunately, his father was something of an outspoken man - generally something of a businessman, a lot of his aired opinions in a still tense world painted a bright red target on the family home.   What followed on was another twelve years of foster care and trying to piece his life back together bit by bit as he hopped from place to place across both Northern and Southern Ireland. The static in his ears slowly quietened into dead silence on his right side and a constant ringing and reduction in hearing on his left side.   Through his schooling over many years he learned BSL, though he can also lipread when the situation allows. In quiet environments with no background noise and a clear speaker, he can also mostly understand someone talking. However, environments like these can also make his tinnitus more prevalent.   At eighteen, Levi found himself spat out of the care system without a family to call his own - he had spent years living out of plastic bags and moving from place to place. He spent the first few months going hostel to hostel and trying to make money, though found himself generally sleeping rough.   Only... he would often wake up absolutely not where he fell asleep.   He would rest his head in one place and, after a restless sleep, he would often awaken in the middle of the street a block away or inside some of the very buildings he slept against.   He wasn't sleepwalking, that was for certain... so how was he getting there?   A particularly grizzly drunken encounter at age twenty late one Friday night including a broken beer bottle and his back against the wall taught Levi exactly what he could do. In an attempt to mug him for what little he had, Levi had stood his ground as firmly as he could, but two against one had proven perhaps a little too much - it was in his panic that he wished himself to be anywhere but here, that he wished he could just run.   He opened his eyes to find out that he now stood in the nightclub he had been backed up against just seconds before with a faint grey mist around him.   With the same feeling of all eyes on him, he once again seemed to disappear and reappear - again and again from location to location until he landed in a crumpled heap in a quiet park.  

Personality

  Levi possesses the sort of kindness that can only be forged from seeing the worst the world can throw at you. He has learned to take on a violent form of optimism and will always see the best in a person or situation… even if misguided. His motto in life is very much along the lines of ‘what's the worst that could happen?’   He loves truly and wholeheartedly, never letting a situation go by where an I love you could have been said and missed. That being said - he can sometimes be foolish in his trust and has been known to dedicate his time to the wrong crowd in the past.
