Morganthe

Morganthe the Tailor is the Arbiter of Life, the Grim Merchant, and a patron of seamstresses and weavers. He measures the fabric of a mortal's life, and uses his shears to cut that fabric when the mortal's span on NUM is done.

Morganthe is commonly held to be the son of Alpanu, goddess of night, although he is also closely affiliated with Thehlal. Like Thehlal, Morganthe is not evil -- he fulfills a necessary role. It is said that, other than Thehlal, the other Numina fear Morganthe, for even the fabric of their vast existences will someday feel the cold touch of his shears.

Morganthe is usually depicted as a grim man in a threadbare cloak, holding a spindle or a pair of scissors.
