Murphy

Yidhari Murphy was born to Wayland; a man with aspirations of becoming a Proxy, but later entered the field of Ether science as to pursue his future wife and mother of Yidhari: Angel. Yidhari Murphy was a notably healthy child who spent most of her time under the watchful eyes of Grandpa Gu, whilst her parents worked at Darkwater Research Center, a TOPS-funded facility that was accesible via Port Elpis which focused on the research of Ether Corruption medicine. Wayland and Angel hoped that their work would be for the betterment of humanity, but were aware that the experimental they were creating were being used to enhance TOPS's private security forces illegally. After three years of working at Darkwater, the octopus Thiren couple decided to leave so they could spend time with their daughter. Their final day was to coincide with Angel's birthday. On the day of the Old Capital's fall, Yidhari, now ten years old, planned to give her mom a birthday gift before she left, but missed the boat due to being denied entry to the port. Upon seeing this, Grandpa Gu took Yidhari personally to Darkwater Research Centre, where she reunited and spent time with her parents. Shortly after, the rapid expansion of Hollow Zero begun and caused several other Hollows to expand as well, including the Outer Ring Hollow, which consumed the facility. Whilst trying to find a way out of the Hollow, Yidhari became severely corrupted due to the inhalation of countless Ether particles. The Murphy family also learnt that TOPS had fled with all the protective equipment, thus leaving them stranded in the Hollow. Wayland would map out a path out of the Hollow, while Angel was able to stablise their daughter with the aid of an experimental serum the two were working on. To counteract the effects of corruption, Wayland took excessive dosages of anti-corruption medicine. This had the effect of greatly cutting his lifespan and would lead to his death within the Hollow.
