- Warden Donald Morgan
Morgan is a fictional character in the book series "
The Dresden Files ", and its TV series spin off, portrayed byConrad Coates in the Sci-Fi series. Though his given name in the novels is Donald, it has yet to be confirmed on the show. The following biography pertains strictly to the televisual version of the character.Note: He's doesn't favor Harry too much.
Morgan is a Warden (law enforcement officer) of the High Council, the ruling body of the wizarding world. He operates in the region of Chicago and takes a special interest in the matter of Harry Dresden, having followed his case for a number of years. Morgan was one Warden dispatched to hunt Dresden down after Justin Morningway, Harry's uncle, was discovered killed with black magic. However, Red Court vampire Bianca hid Dresden, and so Morgan was unable to locate him (episode 105, "Bad Blood"). When the High Council finally ruled Morningway's killing to be in self-defense, Morgan remained unsatisfied by the verdict, believing that Harry might one day fall back into black magic (episode 104, "Rules of Engagement"). He was also against putting the cursed ghostly wizard Hrothbert of Bainbrige (i.e. Bob) into Dresden's keeping (episode 110, What About Bob?).
One special ability of Morgan's that mystifies Dresden is his ability to vanish, an unsettling skill to Harry. Morgan finally reveals, under duress as He, Dresden, Ancient Mai, and two other Wardens are trapped in a region of hell, that it is not, in fact, a spell of teleportation or invisibility, but instead simply tricking the eyes into not seeing him. As his title implies, Morgan is skilled in defensive spells, or wards. Also, his sword doubles as his wand (in the same manner as Harry's drumstick and hockey stick do) (episode 111,
Things That Go Bump ).Appearances
