Morven had gray in his curly hair and beard, with a face wrinkled as a crab's from squinting into wind and sun.
History
After thirty years as a sailor, Morven decided to retire and find a job on the land. He ended up hiring up as a bodyguard for the wizard Towser. After the Destruction of White Ridge, he was quick to befriend Gull when he joined their party, and helped him against the actions of the bully Kem.
Realizing the evil of Towser, he rebelled against him and so was teleported to Towser's island with Gull. After being summoned back by Greensleeves, he helped the girl and her brother Gull in a decisive battle against Towser.
Morven, as a sailor, was the first to notice the sign of an approaching tsunami which had been cast by Greensleeves. He urged Gull, Greensleeves, Kem, and Stiggur to find refuge inside a crack in the cliffside. Realizing there wasn't enough space for him, he told Greensleeves to block the crack's entrance with a Wall of Wood and remained outside, sacrificing his life to the raging sea.
