## Biography

### Background

Esther was formerly an orphan girl who was taken in the Blacklands Manor Orphanage after being handed over as a young baby by her father, Arthur, after her mother, Faith, died during her birth. What was concerning was that her death was not a normal death from childbirth, as she was screaming in terror, as if something was attacking her, but couldn’t be seen. Although her cause of death was stated as “Childbirth”, it was also noted as “Possible Paranormal Activity”.

Arthur couldn’t take care of Esther without Faith’s assistance as she had some experience with taking care of children, while Arthur was busy with work. With nowhere else to go, Arthur gives up Esther to Miss Beverley, telling her about Faith’s Death and telling her that Esther can never learn the truth.

### The Hauntings Return

12 Years later, Esther (now 12) would start to have hellish nightmares of horrific monsters attacking her. This would go so far to the point she would get sleep deprived and get called crazy in which she wasn’t. She was then given a toy she’d called Mr. Hopp from a donation box in which she loved and kept close. The toy however would strangely be moving on its own and planning to take Esther. But she was resilient to whatever demons threatened her and upon collecting a necklace called The Six, she would use its powers to banish the monsters for now.

## Older years & first death

Over time, Esther would hold onto The Six and Mr. Hopp preventing him from falling into the wrong hands. However as age crept in, Esther’s mind and soul resiliency would become weaker. Soon enough, it became weak enough for The Entity to take her over and give Mr. Hopp to its intended vessel Ruby. Eventually, Esther would start to do strange things such as staring at walls and refusing to take care of her personal hygine. She would then be admitted to hospitallity after she woke the neighbors screaming. It was then that Esther in the hospital would get controled by The Entity and give her granddaughter, Ruby, Mr. Hopp. Then she passed away without a clear diagnosis from doctors on the early morning of September 19th. This would then lead to her inprisonment in The Underworld and hellish torture at the hands of The Entity.

## Reuniting with Ruby

After her death, Ruby would face Mr. Hopp and burn him to the ground along with her house. She had told her friends what had happened but instead of helping her, they laughed at her and assumed her as a crazy killer. Things got so bad that Ruby had to drop out of school because of rumours.

Six months later, she would be attacked by Mr. Hopp at her Aunt's house and taken into The Underworld. Ruby would then see her Nana Esther, but doesn't recognize who she is. Ruby would free her but before Esther can tell her of what she is, the two get ambushed by Mr. Hopp. Esther then tells Ruby of her identiy and Ruby is overjoyed by this and embraces her Nana.

## Escape from The Underworld and Ascended

Esther and Ruby would continue to venture into the Underworld while going through places of their past such as a clown maze with a creepy Jester. Esther would leave Ruby out of her sight and lose track of her. Ruby would get influenced by The Entity that Esther is evil and taking her down would lead to a paridise. But, Ruby would betray The Entity and help Esther in which that would lead to Ruby's death. This would enrage Esther and thus she would turn into an Ascended being and fight The Entity in a final battle. Esther would win against The Entity and rid the Underworld of him. She would then ressurect Ruby and lead her back home as she stays in The Underworld to fend off the restless souls it has.

## Aftermath of the original MHP3

After defeating The Entity, Esther would begin to watch over the demons of the Underworld. In another universe with the same event, Mr. Hopp would travel back in time after changing his soul. Hopp would travel to the events of MHP2 and convince Esther of his change of heart. The two would then travel to the year 2019 but wouldn’t meet SST until summer of 2022 where they would be part of the official SST YouTube channel.
