Kafka family

The **Kafka family** is a human family that lives within Mury's Orphanage Asylum. They founded and created the asylum to support the family's obscure research that they believe will help win the war.

## History

In 23CC, Marty Kafka (22), an inspiring doctor and scientist, and Carol (18), a high school graduate interested in legal business and biology studies, get married. Together, the couple was incredibly introverted and spent most of their time together rather than making friends or connections. The steady relationship they kept was with Marty's wealthy parents. On their honeymoon across borders in Maralago, they find a stray kid and decide to adopt it as their own. The bracelet the child wore said 'Mury', so that is what they named her. Soon after, the couple bought their own rural land and built an extravagant home. They claimed it was "Mury's Home".

In 24CC, At 19, Carol bore her own child, Elsie Kafka. Shortly after birth, Elsie died due to health complications. In order to help Carol's grievances, Marty promised to "keep her alive" by using his scientific practices to preserve and research her body. Carol was easily swayed by him promise and helped Marty with his studies. When Carol turned 20, she gave birth to Karl Kafka. Later that year, she also had Wendy Kafka. Wendy was born with a rare condition, and they killed her early on so that she did not have to suffer. They further used her for their studies. At 21, she had Dadie Kafka. who was killed in a fit of range by Marty during the couple's financial struggles.

In 29CC, they hired a nanny to care for Mury and Karl. Carol gave birth to Melody Kafka. While the nanny cared for Melody, she dropped her down the stairs by accident which killed her. In turn, the couple killed the nanny for further experiments. Two years later, they hired a new nanny for the children. Carol miscarriages Fay Kafka, but they keep her for research just like the others. The new nanny suspects Mury's strange behaviors and abilities, and they begin to do more research and experiments on Mury. These experiments they did consisted of drugs, electroshock, and many other strange creations of his.

The following year, they built the basement lab as a gift for Marty's birthday. Marty travels to find more kids like Mury in order to gain more information about other kids that might be like her. Carol bears Arius Kafka. who dies in their research practice. Over the course of the following 3 years, Marty breaks out of his shell with his greatest discoveries and begins to make both governmental connections and darker, underground connections. Marty funds enough to start his business. Once he discovers that he can produce children on his own, Carol gets pushed to the wayside and their relationship falls apart.

In 36CC, Mury, at age 13, attempts to kill her adoptive parents with psychic abilities that Marty had not been fully aware of before. When she fails, she is permanently held captive in jail and is tortured and practiced upon.

In 38CC, At 33, Carol successfully bears twin Ido and Ida Kafka. This time, Carol wants to keep her kids and raise them like a normal family, but Marty kills them. When Karl is 13, Marty introduces him to his research and gets him to be his assistant in the labs. Marty officially renames their home "Mury's Orphanage Asylum", advertising it is to make a better life for kids with messed up childhoods, mental issues, or lost parents. To the government, it was a research lab for potential war weapons.

In 39CC, Marty wants to try for one more kid. Carol makes a deal with him that if it's a boy, they must keep him alive. Marty says if they have a boy, he must be the last and he promised to make this boy just like Mury with positive intentions. Kirian is born.

Marty tells Carol that his research is practically complete, and he will let the other aspiring scientists do the work for him. He no longer updated Carol on their findings. Marty becomes the Warden and overwatcher of all of the work done under his business, and Carol worked the business details and outside interactions while also having control over all of the women's work.

Marty trains Karl to be an apprentice, so that when Marty leaves the business his son can take over. He warns him of Mury's abilities, but wants Karl to help recreate the things Mury did. As Karl helps his dad more and more, he realizes how wrong the business is and starts using his connections to his advantage to find a way to escape. Although he would've liked to take down the entire M.O.A, he knew some of the kids had the capability to do this more successfully. Karl successfully escapes and attacks the dock to hopefully stop exports for a while and throw a wreck into the system.
