Second son to Lieutenant Murphy, Mike spent his youth in the rough streets of Boston.
Perhaps he was an idiot, perhaps he was being contrarian, but what you can be sure is that he fell in with a bad crowd.
Luckily for Michael, his time as a 'hooligan' didn't last long and he soon followed his father's stop and became an officer himself. His experience with the criminal world did help him, though, as he knew how they worked and the suita took notice, offering the young Murphy the chance to work undercover.
And he did like it... the chance to be discovered, working without a leash, catching the criminals in fraganti... Michael was born for that job.
His skills caught the attention of some higher ups and during the summer of 30' Michael infiltrated Las Vegas' Irish mafia. This wasn't no piece of cake, the whole thing spanning from whores to drugs and everything in between. For three years he passed information to the FBI, mostly typical stuff like meeting places, head honchos' names and cargo delivery times... but once he had enough of the mobsters' trust he was shown the truth: there were politicians, and we are not talking about majors, involved.
Mike passed this to the FBI too, and was soon answered that they had enough and he would be extracted during the following days with only the next meeting place attached... buy when the date came he didn't found his way out but a whole gang of angry, bitter mobsters.
They weren't alone, for his liaison counted among them. There was no movie like explanation, no pitched fight... he got the beating of his life and his throat sliced.
This would have been the last of Michael C. Murphy, were not for a curiousity filled Manitou that too took an interest on him.
I won't tell you happened during the three weeks between he 'came back' and when the Rippers found and recruited him, the papers already did it... you need only look for the news on the 'Brutal Clawings'.
What happens from now... well, time will tell. Time will tell.

This is both a plan and a way to keep track. Advances already taken will be marked with an X
