[edit] Overview
Alias(es): Sally White
Real Name: Morgan
Age, in Earth years: 14
Physical Age: 19
Concept: Older sibling, protector, protagonist, light side, Yang
Entitlement: None known
Physical description
- Mask: Ethereally beautiful, blonde haired young woman in her late teens, pale skin, pale blue almost grey colorless eyes, wears light colors, predominantly white or grey clothes. Always seems somewhat sad, aloof, reserved. Seems a bit uncomfortable in her own skin sometimes.
- Mien: Seen through Changeling eyes, Morgan's femininity is enhanced, her curves more pronounced, more difficult to hide. Her fair skin is flawless and translucent, almost ghostly transparent. Her hair is long and lush and flowing. She seems to skim along the ground instead of walking, almost floating. The colors of her blonde hair, fair skin and grey eyes is washed out with an almost sepia tone, like an old faded photograph. Her pale eyes seem to always hold a sadness, no matter what the situation is or what expression is on the rest of her face.
Relevant Mechanics: The Wrong Foot - Occasionally Morgan doesn't leave human footprints behind when she walks. The tracks of a big cat, specifically a tiger, are left in her wake instead.

Current Activities: Recently returned to Earth, trying to remember who she is and what has happened to her. Trying to figure out how to fit into the world again.
Merit Details: Morgan is often unaware of how ethereally beautiful her sadness can be. Other times, she seems to act haughty and superior because of her extreme beauty. In physically combative situations, she seems to have uncanny luck at avoiding extreme injury and death. She also seems preternaturally aware of immanent danger. In addition, she seems exceptionally skilled in finding creative and athletic ways around the city and in avoiding obstacles. Finally, Morgan tends to be drawn to mischievous individuals, feeding off their desire to cause chaos and disorder as she works to stop them.
Background:
There's something I feel like I should be doing, but I can't for the life of me remember what it is.
Actually, I don't even know who I am or what's happened to me. I'm writing this down to try to figure out what it is I actually *do* know, because my memory is... well I don't really have one.
I have no idea what my name is. They keep telling me to give it time and it will come to me, but I am not so sure. When I try to think about who I am... where I came from... anything like that, its like mentally falling off a last step you didn't know was there. It's just so jarring. Minister Kruhy named me Sally White, to have something to call me other than "hey you." It's not my name. I just wish I could remember what it really was.
I looked in the mirror and it was like I expected someone different to be looking back at me. Blonde hair, pale blue eyes... it seems right, but something's off. I mean, I sure don't look exceptionally human, but that's not what it is. I can't put my finger on it.
Who am I? What do I know? I know I'm a girl, a Changeling - they call our kind the Lost because I guess we have no homes to go back to after... after what? After we were abducted. They tell me we were taken into some magical fantasy world of terrible wonder, made to serve the demonic Fairy beings that reign there. Sometimes when my eyes are closed I see swirls of colors that you wouldn't think were possible. I smell scents so familiar, but I know you could never find on Earth. A part of me wants to go back there. Another part silently screams for me to stop thinking that way.
The first thing I remember is finding myself with this raccoon looking girl in a parking garage. No. That's not right. The Hedge. We were running through this place that was like the woods, but different. Darker, maybe. Definitely weirder. I could hear what I thought were birds or small creatures crying out, echoing in the preternatural stillness. I didn't know what they were. I remember thinking we was in trouble. I wasn't sure where we were running to, and i didn't know who she was, but I knew we had to get out, had to escape, had to find... I don't know.
But then we were in a parking garage. Some kind of gateway or doorway was behind us. And there was a guy who looked like a dragon laying on the ground.
He woke up - apparently we'd startled him, arriving like that, and he'd fainted. A dragon. Draconic? What is that word? Anyway, a dragon, fainting... He woke up and I guess he decided we weren't that scary or something. He offered to take us somewhere and teach us stuff about who and what we were. After some discussion, we agreed, but on the way, Shelagh decided she wanted out of the car we were in. So he let her out. I didn't trust the guy any more than she seemed to but what choice did I have? I didn't even remember my name. I knew we were in Los Angeles, but where would I go on my own?
I looked out the window as we continued on. I was back. Back to the real world. I've been here before. It feels like home. And I know what stuff is when I look at it. But I don't know how I know that stuff. It's very frustrating.
Vague snatches. That's all I can recall. Maybe my childhood? Its all so confused. I think I had a dog. Did it have brown fur? There was a white picket fence. I think.
I need to find out what's going on. They say it's normal to not remember much about the Durance - that's what they call our time in Faerie. It's possible to not remember much of your life on Earth from before, too. You normally remember Home. Your family. Something that you hold on to that makes you want to come back. Makes you want to escape, I guess. I have nothing. Nothing at all. Except for the vague but pressing feeling that I've lost something on my way here. Misplaced something terribly important. I'm supposed to be keeping whatever it is safe. I feel like if I had it, I'd remember everything. But it's gone, whatever "it" is...
I'm staying with Shelagh, this guy Jessi, and this other guy named Stripe in a cheap hotel room in Hollywood somewhere. I don't really know why I'm with them. A guy named Dominick offered to take me, all of us, to some kind of safehouse, but my new "friends" were very uncomfortable with that idea. And we sorta started to bond together after a couple of people we met today started treating us pretty meanly. There seem to be a couple of decent people in the "freehold" or whatever, but honestly I think I trust these troublemakers more than anyone else right now. It feels like they've been through some of what I have today. Can't say the same about the others.
It's all so weird. Am I really out? Are we really free? I feel like this is a dream. Maybe it's not real. Not sure why I think that.
I need to figure things out.
I need to find whatever it is I lost.
I need to remember my real name...
