**Alexis "Lex" Murphy** is John Hammond's granddaughter and a hacker.

Lex was born from a Scottish mother in the United States of America. She has a younger sibling, called Tim Murphy and like usual siblings, they pick out on each other a lot. As she became a teen, Murphy gained interest in hacking and practiced being vegetarian.

### Jurassic Park Incident

#### Tour

In 1993, when Lex was about 12. Her grandfather, John Hammond, invited both she and her brother to visit his new dinosaur park. Alexis and her brother had arrived on Isla Nublar before the rest of the team did, having more time to explore the visitors center.

A few hours later, the children reunite with their grandfather, thanking him about the gifts had had given them. Now meeting the endorsement team, Ellie Sattler had told Lex to interact with Alan Grant, who wasn't a fan of kids.

Further along the line, Lex and her brother were quite disappointed as no dinosaur had showed up during the tour. It wasn't until, Sattler jumped out of her vehicle, going after a sick *Triceratops*. In spite of her fear, Lex seemed to enjoy the presence of that species. After a tropical storm was heading their way, Lex returned to the jeep.

#### Breakout

Lex and Tim are inside the jeep with Donald Gennaro, the lawyer. When strangely, the tour vehicles stop right in front of the T. Rex paddock, the park had been sabotage by someone from the inside. Suddenly the remains of a goat landed on the sunroof of the car, terrifying the kids. The immense T. Rex broke out of the fence, the cowardly lawyer, runs away, leaving the scared kids alone.

The T. Rex proceeds to attack the kids as they call for help, flipping their jeep over and chewing on the tires. Lex and Tim are covered in mud crying for help. Ian Malcolm distracts the T. Rex while Alan pulls lex out of the jeep, however, Tim is still trapped inside. Lex screams in fear, calling the creatures attention. The T. Rex pushes the jeep out of a cliff, while Dr. Grant and Lex climb down the cliff using a wire.

#### Bonding

Following the breakout, a traumatized Lex fails to help Alan on rescuing Timmy. The group evades the T. Rex, to stay safe, the three climb up a tall tree. Up above, Alan learns how comfort the kids after the attack, showing them how to call the Brachiosaurus herd gazing around them. When a Brachiosaurus approaches them, Lex attempts to feed it, until it sneezes on her, making her go back to her comfort zone.

The trio falls asleep together, as Alan convinces the kids he'd keep them safe, on the contrary of what Gennaro did to them.

#### Returning

On the next morning, the three get back on the floor walking back to safety, on their way there, they come across a nest, which Grant finds it weird as the dinosaurs are not able to breed by themselves, making a new discovery, Malcolm was in fact, right. As they make their way back, they reach a long field in the middle of the island. A herd of terrified *Gallimimuses* sprint right towards them, once again the three have to escape, as they hide behind a log, they rencounter the T. Rex as it hunts and kills a Gallimimus, with Lex begging to leave.

The group reaches the security perimeter, separating the valley from the visitors center. As a result, they find it better to climb up the fence to reach the other way. They all begin to climb the same time, with Grant being the first and Lex the second. Timmy was still up there, recovering from the long fall. What they didn't know was that the energy was soon to be turned back on. When they least expect, Timmy is electrocuted, but Grant manages to save the young kids life,, they return to the visitors center intact.

#### Visitors Center

Grant takes the kids to the restaurant, where they would be safe. Lex and Tim begin to eat every sweet included at the buffet. With Lex enjoying her meal, until the escaped *Velociraptors* get to them. Lex gets her brother to the kitchen, where they hide form the creature, The *Velociraptor* figures out how to open the door, allowing his pack mate to enter the room. Lex and Tim survive through many close attacks of the theropod, at the end locking one of them inside a freezer. Luckily, Grant arrives to the rescue, shooting at the creature.

Now reunited with Ellie, the survivors head to the control room. The raptors are still after them, but again, Lex is a hacker, she figures how to fix the parks system and locks the doors in time. The group escapes through the vents while escaping from another attack.

Now reaching the main hall, the survivors fall from the ceiling, hanging from the fossils on display. The raptor pack gets to the group, surrounding them from every corner, but the T. Rex snatches one of them as it tried to attack them. They see this as a opportunity and they leave, taking a ride with their grandpa and Malcolm.

On the way back, Lex and Tim rest their heads on Grant's shoulder, with Sattler smiling at him. Following the incident, both Lex and her brother returned home safely.
