Introduction to life.

A boy born to a semi-wealthy family of caravaneers who transported anything and everything that required delivery. His family worked mostly out of Ul'dah, in Thanalan, but they traveled far and wide so they could work constantly and vigorously to earn enough gil to give their newborn child a good life. However, on one unfortunate day, they were delivering a shipment of weapons from Ul'dah to Gridania, in the Black Shroud, and were attacked by Amalj'aa, a race of reptilian beastmen. The Amalj'aa were on a hunt for food when they spotted the caravan, lightly guarded, and caught glimpse of the weapons shipment. The beastmen decided to pursue and attack the caravan, killing everyone and stealing the weapons. Upon hearing the crying of a baby, not even one year old yet, they sought to end the nuisance, and kill the baby. Before they could lay one finger on the baby, who was hysterically crying in a basket woven by his mother, a lone monk rushed in and ended the lives of each and every beastman that was present at the time. The monk decided to take the baby and keep him safe for the time, until he could figure out a better plan for the infants future. The monk soon thought of a couple he knew, friends who could not bare their own child, and decided to pay them a visit. After explaining the situation to them, The Kharashi's decided they would happily take Murphy in and raise him as their own.

The Kharashi's

The Kharashi's lived in Thanalan, at a camp they set up east of the "The Golden Bazaar," near Thal's Respite. While growing up Murphy had always found it troublesome to make friends and get along with other children. He was a nice boy, respectful, but when it came to playing games he was an expert. When the children played games such as hide-and-seek Murphy was able to find the other children with ease every time, and that made them think him as weird, abnormal, and found it hard to have fun when playing with him. He was well-liked but decided to seclude himself and let the other children have their fun without him putting a damper on it even though he oft longed to join them he chose not to.

Indoctrination from an old friend.

A few years pass by, his lonely childhood constantly bothering him under the surface, he remained calm at all times. He was reserved, quiet, and polite to everyone he met, be them good or bad people in the eyes of his parents. Now seven years old Murphy is surprised by a visit from the monk who had saved him years before. The monk decided to train Murphy in his ways, to use his fists, and fight to protect others. Years of incessant training and constant seclusion pass by but Murphy remained the same throughout all of it. Always calm, always clear headed, always polite, and always reserved.

The beginning of a journey.
