Backstory:

Marcus was second born son to Elish and Mairos Darksbane, from the town of Shirebrook . As Zin progressed into darkness, Marcus could not shake the desire for helping his people beyond sitting second to a Baron's throne. At age 12 he was visited in a dream by Tyr to set the world right with fair justice, to restore the ruin, bring hope to those in dispare for The Last War had upset the balance in the Void.

 

Following his calling, he attempted to leave the nobility and politics behind, and join the holy brotherhood of Tyr in Windstrand at 13 years of age. This decision rocked the Darksbane elders. His first task was to learn the holy tenats of Tyr and call forth his power.

 

The clergy elders saw how gifted he was, and sent him west, at 18 years of age, to the Church of Tyr at Brittenbur to work with the Local Urks. His brother traveled with him to ensure his saftey for the roads are never safe to travel alone in Zin. Marcus upset by the extortion the armies of The Darkness were enacting on the local farm people decided to to finally take action. Unfortunately his sister, Jue, was captured, and his brother, Lynus, was killed in the frey, but revenge and justice were unfinished, and needed to be righted in the eyes of his god.

Intro

Your eyes are shut.

The stillness of air. Peace, tranquility. A loud noise of wood slamming open.

You open your eyes, you are kneeling beneath the stone alter in the temple of justice. The scratched stain glass figure of a man kneels in subservience. The arm of Tyr hangs impedingly above him, almost like a descending guillotine, if shall fail, demanding the flesh of his enemies to balance the scales of those good and evil. You turn around to see your brother.

 
   

Personality Traits

Bold, charming, leader, likes to mingle, menacing eyes behind an otherwise charming figure Despite my noble birth, I do not place myself above other folk. We all have the same blood.  

Ideals

  • Punish the true wicked, by any means. Save no mercy. Restore the ruin. Revitalize the faith.
  • Responsibility. It is my duty to respect the authority of those above me, just as those below me must respect mine. (Lawful)
  • Noble Obligation. It is my duty to protect and care for the people beneath me. (Good)
 

Bonds

Instructed by Tyr to determine if he is faithful enough to seek Justice at any cost. Tyr uses Marcus differently in approach to seek justice in an unconventional way (understanding the darkness in attempts to banish it)   The common folk must see me as a hero of the people.  

Flaws

By my words and actions, I often bring shame to my family. Smoker. Gullible.
