[edit] Biography
Logan grew up in a compound with his family consisting of his parents and two siblings, Tyler and Megan. After a siege that left him as the only known survivor, Logan was taken in by a man named Michael Poole and his band of battle-hardened soldiers. Driven insane by the death of his second in command, Fresh, Michael led a vain effort to liberate the long-said impregnable Midline Slave Camp, after which Logan killed Michael in self-defense. Six weeks later, Logan was chosen by the Lady of the Word to be one of her agents and was then given a staff with magical properties once he accepted.
Logan later meets O'olish Amaneh, a prominent agent of the Word, who entrusts with the mission to find the gypsy morph, a magical creature who could potentially shift the balance to the human side. Because Nest Freemark, a magical savant, gave birth to the gypsy morph, Logan is given her bones so he may use them to locate it. He eventually finds the creature who has taken the form of a man called Hawk who is also the leader of a tribe called The Ghosts. Unfortunately, Hawk and his girlfriend Tessa are sentenced to death when they're found guilty of stealing medical supplies for personal use.
