Marcus Von Gretten

Yatian Financier

With a handlebar mustache, balding pate, and slightly pot-belly, this Yatian entrepreneur certainly does not look like indomitable force behind a half dozen successful merchant companies. Layer on his monocle, cane, and penchant for black bowler hats and one might even snicker at his appearance. Merchants in Yaty, however, call his appearance merely one of his eccentricities. As one of the three or four wealthiest individuals in the city, he can certainly afford to dress as he likes. Its the same reason that no bats an eye at his constant and awkward bouncing, pacing, and fidgeting or the fact that everything - from the dullest municipal project to which he donates his time to the most daring new investment is treated with unadulterated enthusiasm.
 
Its his keen eye for opportunity that has made him wealthy. That and his wife - Persephone's head for numbers. He finds the investments likely to take off and she runs the numbers to make certain that they will. For that reason the two of them are often seen traipsing around the Inner Seas, five children in tow, performing due diligence and on route to seeing most of Tarien

With a top hat, monocle, and cane, this entrepreneur can does not look like one of the wealthiest businessmen in Yaty. With his wife, Persophone, however, he was created a vast fortune by investing in merchant ships and other interests. Despite his balding head and pot belly, he can still hold his own on the ballroom floor.
