Murdock was not supposed to survive his pack's slaughter. He was the first one to come to--between him and Hotaka. Seeing his dear nephew covered in blood and in a form he did not recognize, Murdock sought out the man who could bring such tragedy and carnage to his family. Instead, he met his sons who, inevitably, did a horrible number on the old wolf, leaving him with a horrendous facial injury. As further punishment, Alice turned Murdock into a Halfling so that he would wear the brand of being Surt-Lim's property. Murdock was able to recover enough to find a small town populated by mainly humans. He befriended an old priest by the name of Octa and he serves there as a doctor for anyone who needs help. Human or otherwise. Unfortunately, he is unable to change into a wolf without extreme pain and overwhelming exhaustion. Not that Murdock knows this, but Alice's novice level of mastery on executing the act of changing someone like that, has left Murdock without the ability to change form as fluidly as the others.

He knows Hotaka is alive and has every confidence their paths will cross some day.
