Description:
Personality:
Gorgon is rough and often rude. Gorgon has a distinct relationship with a young mutant, whom he cares for as a child and father. He has a hatred for everyone outside of his people and personally devotes himself to fighting any and all intruders to the death, less they are looking to become part of the Morlocks.

That is what he sees the clan. Even giving of himself so others can be well.
Powers/Abilities:
Gorgon has incredible physical strength, endurance and stamina. His hide is also bullet-proof. This means most projectiles bounce off, yet the scales of his hide can be removed with enough force.

Gorgon is able to also hypnotize people with direct contact to his eyes for at least two minutes.
History:
(Player Choice)
(Canon History)
Morris Forth was born in Chicago, without his mutation. It was not til he reached adolescence that his genetic qualities began to come full circle. First the paralyzing spit which in an argument he spat in a student’s face causing him to loose motor skills. After that his body grew broader and skin changed color. His parents debated on what to do. Especially after one day he left the house, and was brutally beaten by neighbors afraid he’d harm their children. When talks of adoption centers started Morris ran away from home.
He eventually grew into a disfigured mutant. Called to his own preference of his powers and form, Gorgon. His anger of people got him in trouble but he did what he needed to survive. Until one day in the sewers he was hiding he found himself with other odd looking people. Learning they were the Morlocks, he was asked to join. He agreed for a night, but there he felt more welcomed than ever before. His fear and hatred died for a time. Until city workers stumbled on the group. As they were going to call police Gorgon mercilessly crushed them. Realizing what he did, the Morlocks debated having him removed. Yet none of them were willing to expel him.
Gorgon made it look like a random accident thanks to debris falling from the sewers. The Morlocks kept away from the areas and left the workers repair fallen pipes and walls. After that the rules were to try never to harm others. Gorgon has agreed, yet admits time and time again if needed he’d do whatever it took to protect them.
Weeks later after this ordeal a young girl mutant was chased into the sewers by an unfamiliar group of men. When Gorgon intervened their bullets did not harm him. He easily forced them back, and the stranger whom lead them called ‘Dr. Howlett.’ The girl’s name was ‘Clarice’ and for the time she hung on Gorgon like a tick. He cared for her, nurtured her and helped her along. From time to time the others aided in her care.
Recently Gorgon has become more distant. Yet it is the anniversary of the killings and each time it weighs on him. He does not like to harm life, and is a pacifist… yet the anger is his weakness.
