Perhaps the least sympathetic of the Noble Enforcers characters (but still more sympathetic than the more evil characters), the Murdock is a high ranking general in the enemy ranks that might look affable and not [[AffablyEvil being evil about it]], but he doesn\'t share the doubts and conflicts plaguing either the Camus, Ishtar or the One-Shot General. He may be a personable fellow out of battle, but when it comes to fighting the war, he steadfastly held onto the loyalty of his nation/liege and will stand against you who oppose his nation/liege, as an ultimate show of loyalty and the fact that he\'s a model soldier. Call it BlindObedience or the likes of it, but he has been raised to value the thing known as loyalty and hold those values high. His men are highly motivated, he might not be AFatherToHisMen, but he won their loyalty via strict and proper training. He\'s decked with either powerful muscles or heavy armor that makes him a mighty physical fighter, if you face him, you may not feel pity or sadness, but rather an adrenaline rush of fighting for your life, he is a WorthyOpponent for you to unleash everything you know and prepared so far.

Your army is sweeping through the ranks of the enemy. Amongst their men is a high ranking, imposing general. He\'s not the head-honcho for sure, that\'s the Rudolf. He seems personable enough, a decent general amongst his peers. But then it dawns to you that he is not as conflicted as Camus. He knows his position, he knows where his loyalty lies, he doesn\'t give a damn about being morally right or wrong. He\'s a model soldier through and through, he is extremely loyal to the cause he\'s committed to from day one and he is not going to go turncoat unlike a Lorenz. What matters is that he\'s blocking your path and you better commit yourself to the fight against him, that size of his isn\'t just for show. Congratulations, you have just encountered a Murdock.

Also aside of not being physical (and the gender), Limstella seems to fulfill the loyalty part of this archetype moreso than Brendan. Any arguments on this?

Of course, Shiraham is removed from the list because he IS a One-Shot General and clearly has doubts about the side he\\\'s on.

On the other hand, despite being one-shot, I think Brian from \\\'\\\'Genealogy\\\'\\\' may also fit in this; he\\\'s loyal to his house of Dozel despite the crimes of his father and brother and his battle was more or less his way to restore the honor of the house, and only in death\\\'s door that he pondered if he was on the right side or not. He\\\'s more similar to Orridyon.

But then, because he appeared before Murdock, it might have the side-effect of taking over the name of the archetype. This is where I doubt, I don\\\'t think the archetype could end up being called \\\'The Brian\\\'...
