Marph Dralun has been the gouvenor of Dhalarona Prime for the time of almost two human lives and has seen many Dhilani leaders come and go.It was probably his age, wisdom and experience that enabled him to realize what was going on during the time of Pharas' reign under the influence of Tyleea. Although he was aware that he and everyone else was influenced by the Ydaa priestess' powers, he still was unable to resist her will. Thus helpless he watched as Pharas and Tyleea poisoned the minds of the Dhilani turning them into the blood lusting murdering empire they were at last.
Even after the dictator's death and his appointment as the new ruler he was not able to pacify the people's cruel spirit, until it was too late. After the annihilation of Dhalarona Prime he was arrested by the Briceran forces and finally killed by the hands of Jarris Vaylon, who at that point was already under the control of the Ydaa-witch Tyleea.
