Morgus
Biography
Morgus was the chairman of the Sirius Conglomerate on Androzani Major. Morgus desired money and power and agreed to a business deal with Sharaz Jek. This deal involved Sharaz harvesting the liquid Spectrox on Androzani Minor with his androids and then Morgus sells it on to the peoples of Androzani Major at an inflated price due to its extreme rarity. Morgus only wanted the profits for himself, however, and betrayed Jek, planning it so that Jek was caught in Adrozani Major's mudblast. Unluckily for Morgus, Jek survives despite being horribly disfigured.
Jek waged a war on the federal forces and so Morgus took advantage and sold weapons to Jek. When talking to Stotz on the vid screen, he sees the Doctor alive and well, though captured by Stotz, and thinks that the Doctor and Peri's execution was faked because Morgus thought that the president of Androzani Major knows about his criminal activities, leading to Morgus pushing the president down a lift shaft. Unfortunately again for him, his own secretary betrayed him, he was betrayed by Timmin, Morgus's trusted aid. After betraying Morgus, Timmin becomes the new chairman of the Sirius Conglomerate on Androzani Major. He went to his mercenary weapon importers and Stotz agreed to help Morgus liberate Jek's Spectrox hoard. Morgus stumbled upon Jek's base and Sharaz forced Morgus' head into an energy beam, killing him. (DW: The Caves of Androzani)
