Morgan is an Irish-American free spirit, who has fled the nest of her rural northeastern family farm to eventually settle in Saint's Crossing.
History
Early Life
An Irish-American from upstate New York. Her Ireland native-born parents moved to the states for new opportunities unavailable to them in Ireland. Their small farm was not producing enough to sustain the lives they wished to live, so they moved to rural New York to work and till the "black soil," known for its enriching nutrients and fertile plants. There, Morgan was born. Her mother attempted to raise her as a "proper lady" but Morgan always had other plans. She would work in stalls, on the farm, and other occupations requiring heavy lifting. Morgan was a tomboy at heart and refused to fit inside the box her mother was conjuring up for her.
Morgan has had several bad run-ins in her romantic relationships. People who were controlling in nature like her mother or downright just mean to her. She swore off anyone after her last connection had thrown a vase at her and left her face permanently disfigured from the shards cutting her face. Luckily, it was a clean cut but it was enough for her to not explore anything like that for awhile.
Eventually, later on in Morgan's life during her early 20s, things on the family farm began took a turn for the worse. Her father, more absent than ever despite being there every day. Her mother, more controlling and strict, Morgan decided it was finally time to leave. Her happiness and carefree nature was on the line. In the middle of cool, mid-spring, night she left home and hasn't looked back. She's picked up odd jobs throughout her travels. She would do farming/ranching one-offs.
