Bio: Morgan was the second twin of the set. She did well enough in her childhood, avoiding fights with Leila and Malcolm and trying to be the adult in all situations. She was sort of a rough and tumble girl in her youth but she did love to get pedicures and manicures with Malcolm when the timing was right. She was a miniature adult who grew more quickly than those around her and she was never interested in dating. She met a wonderful boy in high school, Pete, who helped her on her first day in her new high school. She ended up dating Pete all through high school. Morgan dumped him when she left to go to college because it would hurt less when they were apart. Morgan wasn't entirely sure what she wanted to do with her life so she took a few odd jobs but ended up settling on being a phone sex operator even though she is a virgin.

A year ago Pete called her up and tried to convince her to give up her job. She didn't want to take his advice but it was nice to talk to him again and they got back together. Pete wanted to commit for life and he wanted to be physical with her, but Morgan had different views on that although she loved him.

Name: Malcolm Wright
DOB: 07/11/1981
Orientation: Gay
Occupation: Model
Religion: No
Residence: Apt 501

Bio: Malcolm Wright was born a twin and loved every second of it. He grew up dancing and taking piano lessons with his twin Morgan rather than playing sports with all the other boys. He was always inclined to be around his twin than anyone else because they truly understood each other. Although Malclom and Morgan have an older sister, Leila, they barely speak to her. Their parents fought all through their childhood and even into their adult lives, although they were separated and divorced and shared custody, sending Morgan, Malcolm, and Leila across the country from time to time, there was still no peace between the two. The children grew up in NYC and moved to Burnham when they were in their teens because their mother was concerned for their safety. They spent their summers in California with their father.

The first time that Malcolm was separated from his sister was when they went away to college and that didn't last long. Malcolm was secretly dating one of his best friends and when he came out of the closet he was beaten almost to death, his boyfriend helped the others beat him up. Malcolm transferred to Morgan's university and worked hard to forget everything that happened to him. He hasn't been able to hold a steady relationship since. He started modeling when he was in college because he had nothing else to do and since he could barely keep his focus he decided that's what he was going to do with his life. He does very well as a model but he's still not a whole person. He lives in Burnham City with Morgan.

Quirks: He practices his model faces whenever he's in front of a reflective surface. Can't keep a steady relationship.

One day when they boys were ten, their mother was in the hospital because she was pregnant with their little sister and there were complications. Their father was at work. Adam and Andrew were playing ball in the back yard and the ball flew over the iced over pond and rolled to the middle of the ice. Without thinking the two boys went out to get the ball together and as any ten year old twins, they goofed around they entire time. The ice started to crack and the boys tried to run back to land but they couldn't run fast enough and they were pulled under.

Andrew tried to save Adam but Adam pushed Andrew away because he knew they were both going to drown if he didn't, he wanted to save his brother. Andrew did as he was told and swam back to shore. His father had just pulled into the driveway when he crawled out of the pond. Andrew's father ran into the pond and pulled out Adam's body, it was too late, he had drowned. The small family decided not to tell the newest member of their family about the tragedy because they didn't think she needed to deal with the pain of something she wasn't even alive for. Andrew suffered post traumatic stress disorder and from years of guilt and a genetic predisposition for multiple personality disorder, his second personality took a more sinister turn and developed into an evil version of Adam.

Andrew dated a girl named Geanie from the time they were in middle school and most of college. A few months before they were supposed to graduate Andrew found Geanie cheating on him with his best friend Scott. He left Alaska before he had a chance to graduate and moved to Burnham. He met his best friend Ian in an apartment building and they decided to live together. A few months after Andrew moved in his father suffered a massive heart attack and trying to relieve the pain, his mother asked if Andrew could take care of his little sister Amelia. Andrew agreed and Amelia moved from Alaska to live with her brother, when their parents asked her to move back Amelia said no. After a heated discussion it was decided that Amelia could stay with Andrew. He earned his bachelors degrees in music and environmental science and started doing free lance music.

Andrew is now working as an environmental studies teacher at a public high school in Burnham City.
