	'''Morgulis Faendryl''' is a necromancer from the [[The Theory of Governance and Social Order#Clerisy\|Clerisy]] of House Faendryl. He was hired on contract to travel to the Darkstone Bay region in Koaratos 5126 Modern Era, where he was to assist the [[Extrachthonic Cartographer's Guild]] task force in countering the [[Ithzir]]. The Harrowers sought a specialist to help them study a captured "dark Ithzir", which was displaying intrinsic necromantic qualities. This was necessary for understanding the nature of the threat. It was suspected there was a deep relationship with the shadow entities in the Ithzir [[Lost Palestra (storyline)/2026-01-18 - Sympathy of Destruction (log)\|incursions]], and the Harrowers needed to determine if they have the same origin. There was a question of whether they were Ithzir corrupted with [[The Demonic and Undeath#Sorcerous Elements and Tainting\|shadows]], or some kind of imitation Ithzir made from animate matter.

	Morgulis is a specialist in the study of demonic necromancy, or extraplanar necromancy in general, which is [[Lost Palestra (storyline)/Condemnation of Unauthorized Release of Sorcerous Knowledge (vignette)\|highly restricted]] under the laws of House Faendryl. Morgulis holds hostile and dismissive views toward politics. He considers such issues beneath him. Morgulis is a middle class careerist whose sense of superiority is bound up in prestige status symbols of the Clerisy. He is fluent in Common but regards its native speakers as gutter trash.

	Morgulis remarks, "This shadows counterfeit of an Ithzir is impressive enough. Merging the extraplanar and animate matter is a form of demonic necromancy."

	Morgulis spits, "Charlatans with this ur'vissi sophistry! Whenever someone makes up their own words for a thing, professing it is not merely that thing, but too profound to be understood, you may be quite certain they have no idea what they are talking about. That they are saying nothing at all, and convinced of their own nonsense."		Morgulis spits, "Charlatans with this [[Vissi Compendium (lore)\|ur'vissi sophistry]]!

That they are saying nothing at all, and convinced of their own nonsense."

	Morgulis smugly preens, "If you must know, I was solicited for an endowed chair at Korthyr Academy, but it would have involved too much instructing. I studied under a Scholar of the Valences for my tertiary sabbatical, which short-listed me for a clerkship with the Basilican Sorcerer, and my work is in contention for the Thanris Prize."

What is the collection of trivia and mere trivialities in other valences, when one can sunder and forge the very fabric of being? If only the Basilica were more far sighted."

	Morgulis waves his hand, brushing you off dismissively.

What is more interesting, not that I imagine you would have put it together yourself, is the similarity of their face liquid to the v'reen morphs."
