Morgus


 * "As they used to say on old Earth, every cloud has a strontium lining."
 * - Morgus

Morgus was the chairman of the Sirius Conglomerate on Androzani Major and sworn enemy of Sharaz Jek.

Morgus desired money and power and agreed to a business deal with Sharaz Jek. This deal involved Jek harvesting the longevity drug Spectrox on Androzani Minor with his androids. Morgus then sold Spectrox to the peoples of Androzani Major at an inflated price. Morgus only wanted the profits for himself, however, and betrayed Jek, planning it so that Jek was caught in Androzani Minor's mud blasts. Unluckily for Morgus, Jek survived despite being horribly disfigured.

Not above personally murdering others to achieve his ends, Morgus waged a war on the federal forces, covertly selling weapons to Jek through the mercenary Stotz. He falsely believed that the Doctor and Peri worked for Jek. When the situation on Androzani Minor began to get out of hand, Morgus personally travelled there. Unfortunately, once he arrived he was betrayed by Timmin, his trusted aid. Timmin became the new chairman of the Sirius Conglomerate on Androzani Major, ousting Morgus by informing the planet's authorities of his numerous crimes. Desperate, Morgus convinced Stotz to help him liberate Jek's Spectrox hoard. Morgus stumbled upon Jek's base and Sharaz forced Morgus' head into an energy beam, killing him.
