M[]

Murtaugh[]

A male character with abilities to control the energy source known as karma. Murtaugh lost his arm in Kent around 1905, but discovered a third karma arm soon after. His extreme focus on his experiments and apparent disregard for others made others view him as a sociopath. He also worked as a lighthouse keeper and directed activities at the research base and karma studies facility.
