Editing After The Storm:NonPlayerCharacters (section)

===The Hallowed Mark===

The Hallowed Mark (real name Marcus Espositio) was an aspiring artist just beginning to gain success in the New York art scene before the Storm. Since it, and the collapse of the economy, he lived on the streets for months before landing a job creating artwork for an ad agency. Paying too little to live on and requiring churning out dozens of soulless works of commercialization a day, Marcus went more than a little mad and turned to hallucinogens to keep any sense of inspiration and creativity in his life. It was during one of his “sessions” that Marcus attempted to rip the image of a corporate mascot off the page it was written on – and succeeded. Since then, Marcus has used his soulless “Animations” to perform acts of theft and sabotage across the city, but recently he has become obsessed with hunting down the one animation who has slipped his control, searching for her nightly throughout New York and sending his minions by day into the strange interconnected world of Corporate Advertising where he can’t enter himself.
