Biography
Morse's family moved to Elfrieden several generations ago from the Republic of Turgis. He enrolled at Ginger's Vocational School due to its more open approach to research topics compared to the Royal Academy. His specific research focus was on the impact of music on both magic and work through the use of 'work songs'. 'Work songs' are compositions that are sung by workers in various fields such as mining or woodcutting that were superstitiously thought to increase productivity or make work easier; an example of easier work in mining was finding valuable ore veins more quickly and efficiently.

After Morse wrote a thesis at the vocational school to address his research, it was brought to the attention of Kazuya. Though he did not initially see the potential of Morse's study, after meeting with Morse, an experiment was planned and publicly broadcast using the Jewel Voice Broadcast to test the effects of music in combat situations as well. Morse was considered the lead researcher on the project. The results displayed effects on both offensive and defensive magic and magic efficiency varying by the music. A simultaneous special of Overman Silvan was broadcast, displaying greater magic special effects because of the music than the standard episode from Ivan Juniro, Moltov Juniro, and Carla Vargas.

The results from the experiment rendered Morse's thesis correct, and elements of it have begun to be implemented in only certain areas of Friedonian society as Kazuya has not yet wanted these discoveries to get too far at this time. Morse is currently continuing his research deeper into the theory at Ginger's Vocational School.
