Character Information

Summary

A new adept on the scene who has seen way too many 1980s action vids.

Goals

1. Test himself and push his limits.
2. Earn a name for himself
3. Increase his knowledge of Magic
4. Make a truckload of creds while doing the above.

Background

By all rights, Marcus grew up relatively privileged. Both of his parents were high ranking employees of the Lockheed megacorporation. His mother was a well-respected scientist, his father a powerful mage employed to ensure the companies interests were maintained. And Marcus was born with a great deal of potential which was evident quite early.

Marcus was a bright child, but had outstanding natural social skills. He seemed to excel at most anything that he attempted on sheer innate talent alone, and that drew the attention of both his parents and some higher-ups in Lockheed who were always looking forward to the next generation. And this was BEFORE his Awakening.

At that point, he was placed in a special program designed to evaluate and hone his talents. He displayed all the signs of a physical adept and was especially quick and a natural with a pistol. However, Marcus had a secret. He held back his knowledge of spellcasting and summoning. He figured out pretty early that it would be best to keep some cards to himself, and so he used his father’s library to teach himself all he could learn. Unfortunately, his father was at least careful not to leave spell formula laying around, and so Marcus’ ability to learn specific spells was rather limited. Upside, it didn’t stop him from learning how to summon spirits and even bind them to service.

But for some, this kind of life can seem like a cage. And if one is talented, even worst. Marcus was stuck looking down the barrel of his life neatly planned out by his parents, his corp, his teachers. And he wanted control. He decided it was about time that he take his life in his own hands and made his plans.

A year later he entered into college, moving out of his family’s home and into a rented apartment. He spent his freshman year studying and maintaining his grades. But on his off-time, he prepared. Utilizing contact information he gleamed from his father’s study, and his trust fund, he gathered the necessary tools to start his new double life. Taking inspiration from old action vids of the 80s such as The Crow and Batman and his personal connection to his Celtic roots, Draven was born. He might still have a lot of learn, but Marcus is confident that he is ready. Money, thrills, and a life of his own choosing. That is what the Shadows promise him.

Narrative Significant Qualities

Positive

1. Focused Concentration
2. Jack of Trades / Master of None
3. Trust Fund III (Lifestyle High)
4. Too Pretty to Hit

Negative

1. Corporate SIN (Lockheed)
2. Rationale for STR 1: Pumping magic so much to increase his reflexes and agility, critically glitching perhaps one too many times, that it seems to have deteriorated his physical strength quite a bit. He might decide to see about correcting the imbalance later, but for now he is willing to pay that price. (Not a real Neg Qual, but a suggested place for putting the rationale.)

Appearance

Clothing

He wears a tight fitting black shirt, black pants and thick long trench coat. A mask of some covers his lower face at all times, but when on the job, tends to wear a ballistic mask for added protection.

In less "confrontational" environments, he wears a black Armarte Suit with a black tie, and a fashiobable lower face mask.
