Morgen Faust 「モルゲン・ファウスト Morugen Fausuto」[1] is a former nobleman of House Faust, the younger twin brother of Nacht Faust,[2] and a former member of the Grey Deer squad of the Magic Knights.[3]
For Judgment Day, Morgen is resurrected by Lucius Zogratis and made into a Paladin.[4]
Appearance[]
Morgen is a man with fair skin, a soft facial structure, and long black hair that is pulled up into a high ponytail.
Morgen wore the Grey Deer squad robe over a light-colored jacket and dark-colored belts.[3]
After becoming a Paladin, Morgen wears a long robe made of a thick, furry fabric. Over this, he wears a fur mantle similar to the one he wore as a Magic Knight. The clasp has a diamond-shape and is decorated with a star. He also wears two belts around his waist, and off the right side of one hangs his grimoire pouch.
While using purified devil power, Morgen grows four horns from the back of his head and two pairs of wings. Lines appear running up his neck to his cheeks, and his clothes are turned light-colored.

Personality[]
Morgen has a jovial personality and behaves properly, as opposed to his twin's selfish attitude and delinquent behavior.[5][2] A very kind, selfless individual who becomes a Magic Knight to save others. His influence helps mellow out a young delinquent Yami and convinces him to become a captain, and his death and tragic dream causes Nacht to become a more moral person devoted to destroying evil and a Magic Knight himself.
Biography[]
Morgen and his twin, Nacht, were born to House Faust. After turning 15 years old, Morgen receives a grimoire and joins the Grey Deer squad of the Magic Knights because he wants to help save people.[6] Morgen befriends Yami Sukehiro, a fellow Grey Deer and coincidentally Nacht's friend as well.[7]
Years later, when Morgen is 19 years old, he learns of his family's practice of Forbidden Magic. Rather than report it to the Magic Knights, he sneaks into the secret chamber and tries to dissuade his brother from summoning Lucifugus. Nacht refuses to listen and summons the devil, who attacks and kills the rest of the family. Morgen jumps into the magic circle and shatters the bracelet that is linked to the devil, canceling the ritual and sending the devil back to the underworld. As he dies in Nacht's arm, Morgen tells of his dream for them to protect the Clover Kingdom together as Magic Knights.[8]
Many years later, Lucius Zogratis resurrects Morgen and makes him a Paladin. On Judgment Day, Morgen uses Light Magic to bring himself and Lucius into the Noble Realm, where the Magic Knights are assembled. Jack the Ripper initially confuses Morgen for Nacht, at which point Morgen draws on his purified devil power and blasts a hole through Jack's abdomen. Morgen then turns and greets Yami.[9]
