Brief History

Born a minor son of a minor family, Marcus knew that he'd never have the life he thought he deserved, He petitioned at the local Arbites precinct house to escape his world, and did well in it's service. However, he's gone as high as he could, and his ambition was not sated. Things came to a head when he was assigned to a case concerning a certain Rogue Trader and an assortment of stolen goods. He impressed the young Wulfenbach, and was offered a place among his crew, which he eagerly accepted. Now he's in a true position of authority, even if the work is much more dangerous.
