Backstory:
Nephtali Yukiharu is a descendant of the once influential Yukiharu family who had built gadgets and weapons that have helped heroes from across the globe fight evil. But the Yukiharu family name would be forever changed. Nephtali spent most of his childhood training himself while most of his family had neglected him. Their focus was on his other siblings, Corabelle and Farris. Once Nephtali had mastered the ways of the blade, he went down the path of treachery and killed his siblings in cold blood, as well as his mother and father, making himself as the company's owner.
Nephtali had found out about experimental weapons that Johnathan and his researchers had been secretly constructing. Weapons that involved the use of mind-melting psionic waves and quantum energy beams that can turn any living creature to ashes. As the new company owner, he sold it to Arachnos for an extraordinary amount of money along with the experimental weapons that Recluse's soldiers and scientists have utilized. Ever since then, Nephtali bears the honor of the Yukiharu family in his own image while bringing glory to Arachnos as "The Weiss Assassin." While loyal to Lord Recluse, he follows a code of honor unlike most of the decrepit criminals that make up Lord Recluse's Project: DESTINY.

As an Arachnos assassin, he had achieved quite a lot at such a young age during his rise to power in Lord Recluse's regime. From eradicating the Longbow foothold on Cap Au Diable with the help of his fellow villains to eliminating Overdrive's task force and the Legacy Chain army in Sharkhead Isle with the use of the Blood Coral, he proved to be one of Recluse's deadliest assassins and earned the favor of Scirocco as one of his most trusted disciples. Even when he was focused on eliminating Arachnos's enemies, a spark of morality ignited within his soul when he was tested by a Oneiromancer from the Legacy Chain, the same faction that was slaughtered by Nephtali's blade. Despite Nephtali's protests, he pressed on and saved this said Oneiromancer from a supposedly certain death and was rewarded with an artifact known as the Oculus. Nephtali gazed into the Oculus and remembered someone who had cared about his existence more than anyone else... Her eldest sister... Corabelle Yukiharu...
Soon after, his soul was struck with a terrible case of regret and indecision. Will he forsake everything that the Yukiharu bloodline he stood for all those years, or will he take the chance of redeeming himself and steer the family name back in the right direction?
